LEGISLATIVE ALERT

California
Bill to Exempt Inoperable Vehicles from Public Nuisance Ordinances

A bill (A.B. 789) has been introduced in the California Assembly that exempts vehicles having a certification of nonoperation on file with the DMV from city and county public nuisance ordinances. The vehicle would have to be stored or parked in a legal manner on private property and not readily visible from the street.

We Urge You to Contact Your State Legislators to Support A.B. 789

A.B. 789 provides safeguards for hobbyists to work on collector vehicles on private property.

A.B. 789 establishes reasonable provisions that vehicles be properly parked and located out of ordinary public view, which can generally be achieved by means of inside storage, fencing, trees, shrubbery, etc.

A.B. 789 allows collectors to maintain wrecked, dismantled or inoperative vehicles and their parts on private property.

A.B. 789 demonstrates a real effort by legislators and hobbyists to enact reasonable and fair compromise legislation.

California residents, Please contact your own state legislators in Sacramento immediately by phone, fax or e-mail to support this legislation.

If you need assistance in determining who your legislators are and their contact information, please contact the California State Legislature's General Information Line at 916 445-4311.

This information can also be obtained by calling the SEMA Washington, D.C. office at 202 783-6007 ext. 39
