CARPD Advocacy in Action - SB 499 Has Been Signed Into Law!

We are thrilled to announce that SB 499, CARPD's sponsored legislation, has been signed into law! This is a huge win for CARPD and California's communities as SB 499 plays a vital role in strengthening the use of parkland and recreational facilities for emergency and disaster response across the State.
