BILL NUMBER: AB 214INTRODUCED BILL TEXT INTRODUCED BY Assembly Member Davis JANUARY 31, 2011 An act to amend Section 22457 of the Business and Professions Code, relating to business. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST AB 214, as introduced, Davis. Professional photocopiers. Existing law provides for regulation of professional photocopiers, including a requirement for issuance of an identification card by the county clerk. This bill would require the identification card for an employee of a professional photocopier or a partnership or corporation to contain a photograph of the employee. By imposing additional duties on county clerks, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions. Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes. State-mandated local program: yes. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. Section 22457 of the Business and Professions Code is amended to read: 22457.

(b) The identification card shall be a card not less than 31/4 inches by 2 inches, and shall contain at the top the title, "Professional Photocopier" followed by the registrant's name, address, registration number, date of expiration, and county of registration.

SEC. 2.
