Bills 1344 and 2349 Stall - Sad News for Sonoma Developmental Center Families, Residents and Community

Despite strong local support for two bills, one put forth by Senator Evans (SB 1344) and one from  Assemblywoman Yamada (AB 2349), both pieces of proposed legislation have stalled in appropriations.

The bills sought to give local stakeholders, including Sonoma Developmental Center (SDC) families, Sonoma County, local organizations, and local citizens a voice in the future of SDC. The bills also supported services on the SDC site while retaining the open space.
