LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


SB 172, as amended, Portantino. Firearms.
(1) Existing law, subject to exceptions, generally requires the loan of a firearm to be conducted by a firearms dealer.
This bill would authorize the temporary transfer of a firearm without a firearms dealer’s participation to a person who is 18 years of age or older for safekeeping to prevent it from being used to attempt suicide, as specified. The bill would also authorize the loan of a firearm without a firearms dealer’s participation under other specified circumstances and if certain conditions are met, as specified.
(2) Under existing law a person commits the crime of criminal storage of a firearm if the person keeps a loaded firearm within a premises with knowledge that a child is likely to gain access to the firearm.
This bill would make the crime of criminal storage applicable to the storage of an unloaded firearm. The bill would make it a crime for a person who has been convicted of this crime to own a firearm for a period of 10 years. By expanding the application of a crime and creating a new crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
(3) Existing law makes it a crime to keep a handgun within a premises with knowledge that a child or person prohibited from possessing a firearm is likely to gain access if the child or prohibited person obtains access to the handgun and carries it off premises.
This bill would make this crime applicable to any firearm. The bill would make it a crime for a person who has been convicted of this crime to own a firearm for a period of 10 years. By expanding the application of a crime and creating a new crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
(4) Existing law makes it a crime for an owner or legal occupant of a residence to store a firearm in that residence if the person knows another person residing in that residence is prohibited from possessing a firearm unless the firearm is secured, as specified.
The bill would make it a crime for a person who has been convicted of this crime to own a firearm for a period of 10 years. The bill would also correct an erroneous cross-reference. By creating a new crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
(5) The California Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly Act Existing law provides for the licensure and regulation of community care facilities for adults, residential care facilities for persons with chronic life-threatening illness, and residential care facilities for the elderly by the State Department of Social Services. A person who violates the act, or who willfully or repeatedly violates any rule or regulation adopted under the act, is guilty of a misdemeanor. Violations of the licensing requirements for these different types of care facilities are crimes.
This bill would enact, within the act, the Keep Our Seniors Safe Act and would require the department to promulgate regulations prescribing the procedures for a firearm and ammunition to be centrally stored in a locked gun safe within a facility that permits residents any of those facilities if the facility permits residents or clients to possess firearms on its premises. The bill would require a facility to prepare and maintain an individual weapons inventory for each firearm and type of ammunition stored within the facility and submit the inventories to the Department of Justice. Because a violation of these requirements by a facility would be a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The bill would additionally make other conforming changes to regulatory provisions for specified community care facilities for adults.

The bill would require a facility that permits residents to possess firearms on its premises to, at the request of the State Department of Social Services, disclose and demonstrate compliance with specified requirements, including, among other things, that the facility maintain an inventory of firearms and ammunition held in that facility. Because a violation of these requirements by a facility would be a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

(6) This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 31700 of the Penal Code proposed by AB 1292 to be operative only if this bill and AB 1292 are enacted and this bill is enacted last. This bill would also incorporate additional changes to Section 26835 of the Penal Code proposed by AB 645 and SB 61 to be operative only if this bill, AB 645, and SB 61 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.

(6)

(7) 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 no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: YES   Local Program: YES
