Humane Asn of CA
|
As introduced, SB 945 would add to the Health & Safety Code, Part
6 of Division 105, a new Chapter 11, defining a “Pet boarding
facility” as "any lot, building, structure, enclosure, or premises
whereupon four or more dogs, cats, or other pets in any
combination are boarded for profit." The bill includes
responsibilities for operators, structural, maintenance and care
standards. Violation is a criminal offense, first violation punishable
by fine not over $250 or over $1,000 for subsequent violations.
Amended in Senate, March 7, 2016 to reduce the pet boarding
facility definition to two or more boarded for "compensation."
Numerous provisions are re-written, particularly to include different
specified space requirements based on different weight categories
of dogs, calculating square footage of spaces and tracking time
periods to specified requirements, and numerous other
requirements.
Amended in Senate, March 29, 2016 to return the definition to four
or more, exclude shelters; reduce time in temporary shelter to 4
daytime hours and 12 at night or humane for the animal, whichever
is less, and outside for no less time than needed to eliminate;
deleted space requirements by dogs' weight; raised individual
observation period from every 8 hours to 24 hours; removed time
requirements related to water; eliminated requirement to not house
a pet alone without written owner consent; other minor changes;
and added a new provision, "A person convicted of an infraction,
misdemeanor, or felony related to the welfare of animals,
including, but not limited to, a violation of Section 597 of the Penal
Code, is prohibited from operating a pet boarding facility or from
being employed as an employee of a pet boarding facility."

Senate Floor Analysis, May 18, 2016
Amended in Assembly, June 9, 2016
Assembly Com on Bus & Profs Policy Analysis, June 20, 2016
Amended in Assembly, August 1, 2016 to modify and add
provisions:
* A definition of "enrichment" and a care requirement to based on
the new definition rather than the previous enrichment "device."
Now:
“Enrichment” means providing objects or activities, appropriate to
the needs of the species, as well as the age, size, and condition of
the pet, that stimulate the pet and promote the pet’s well-being.
* Another modification to the operative definition: “Pet boarding
facility” means any lot, building, structure, enclosure, or premises,
or a portion thereof, whereupon four or more dogs, cats, or other
pets in any combination are boarded at the request of, and in
exchange for compensation provided by, their owner. However,
“pet boarding facility” does not include a city, county, or city and
county animal control agency, society for the prevention of cruelty to
animals, or humane society that contracts for the care of stray or
abandoned animals, or the premises of a veterinary facility that is
registered pursuant to Section 4853 of the Business and
Professions Code.
* Adaptation of the correction and misdemeanor provisions of the
Pet Store Animal Care Act (2007 AB 1347, Anna Caballero) to this
topic as more appropriate to a business context where
administrative licensing is not feasible: “(a) An animal control
officer, as defined in Section 830.9 of the Penal Code, a humane
officer qualified pursuant to Section 14502 or 14503 of the
Corporations Code, or a peace
officer who detects a violation of Sections 122380 to 122385,
inclusive, if he or she decides the violation warrants formal action,
shall issue a single notice to correct that shall contain all of the
following information:
(1) Specify each violation of this chapter found in the inspection.
(2) Identify the corrective action for each violation.
(3) Include a specific period of time during which the listed
violation or violations are to be corrected.
(b) After issuing a notice to correct pursuant to this section, the
officer or another qualified officer of the issuing agency shall
verify compliance with this chapter by conducting a subsequent
investigation of the pet boarding facility within a reasonable period
of time.
(c) An exact, legible copy of the notice to correct shall be delivered to
the pet boarding facility operator at the time he or she signs the
notice. In the alternative, the issuing agency may personally deliver
the notice to the operator within 48 hours of its issuance, excluding
holidays and weekends. The signing of the notice is an
acknowledgment of receipt and does not constitute an admission
of guilt.
(d) A pet boarding facility operator who is verified to have
complied with a notice to correct shall not be subject to subdivision
(g).
(e) A pet boarding facility operator who violates the same provision
of this chapter on more than one occasion within a five-year period
is not eligible to receive a notice to correct, and is guilty of an
infraction on the second violation, and is guilty of a misdemeanor
on the third or subsequent violation.
(f) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), a pet boarding facility operator
that causes or allows harm or injury to an animal, or allows an
animal to be subject to an unreasonable risk of harm or injury is
guilty of a misdemeanor.
(g) Except as provided in subdivisions (e) and (f), a pet boarding
facility operator who violates any provision of this chapter is guilty of
an infraction punishable by a fine not to exceed two hundred fifty
dollars ($250) for the first violation and by a fine not to exceed one
thousand dollars ($1,000) for each subsequent violation. The court
shall weigh the gravity of the offense in setting the penalty.”

Originally a 2015 bill involving requirements for the Office of
Administrative law, it passed the Assembly and was amended in
Senate on August 17, 2015 to provide civil immunity for persons
removing from vehicles unattended, endangered children or
animals by creating a new personal right in the Civil Code. AB 797
was amended again, August 31, 2015 to include requirements for
the rescuer and amended in Senate May 23, 2016 to include only
animals and also amend Penal Code 597.7.
Amended in Senate, June 6, 2016 to would add a new Section
43.100 to the Civil Code, under Division 1, Persons, Part 2,
Personal Rights. The June 6 amendments remove references to
various responder personnel categories and substitutes only the
term, "person." Now, the person would have no civil liability for
damage to or trespass to a vehicle done while rescuing an animal
pursuant to Penal Code Section 597.7(b) that created offenses of
leaving or confining an
"animal in any unattended motor vehicle under conditions that
endanger the health or well-being of an animal due to heat, cold,
lack of adequate ventilation, or lack of food or water, or other
circumstances that could reasonably be expected to cause
suffering, disability, or death to the animal." This is separate from
any civil liability or immunity of the person for rendering aid to the
animal; and would amend Penal Code 597.7 by adding a new
subsection (b) and re-lettering existing (b) as (c) with two
amendments conforming to new (b.) The new subsection (b)
contains the provisions for a person other than the responders
specified the remainder of the amendments to exercise the
personal right that would be created in the Civil Code amendment
and avoid criminal liability: (b)(1) "This section does not prevent a
person from taking all reasonable steps that are reasonably
necessary to remove an animal from a motor vehicle if the
person holds a reasonable belief that the animal’s safety is in
immediate danger from heat, cold, lack of adequate ventilation, lack
of food or water, or other circumstances that could reasonably be
expected to cause suffering, disability, or death to the animal.
(2) A person who removes an animal from a vehicle in accordance
with paragraph (1) is not criminally liable for actions taken
reasonably and in good faith if the person does all of the following:
(A) Determines the vehicle is locked or there is otherwise no
reasonable manner for the animal to be removed from the vehicle.
(B) Has a good faith belief that forcible entry into the vehicle is
necessary because the animal is in imminent danger of suffering
harm if it is not immediately removed from the vehicle, and, based
upon the circumstances known to the person at the time, the
belief is a reasonable one.
(C) Has contacted a local law enforcement agency, the fire
department, animal control, or the “911” emergency service prior to
forcibly entering the vehicle.
(D) Remains with the animal in a safe location, out of the elements
but reasonably close to the vehicle, until a peace officer, humane
officer, animal control officer, or another emergency responder
arrives.
(E) Used no more force to enter the vehicle and remove the
animal from the vehicle than was necessary under the
circumstances.
(F) Immediately turns the animal over to a representative from
law enforcement, animal control, or another emergency responder
who responds to the scene.
New (c) is the existing (b) covering offense classifications and
penalties and provisions for designated responders to remove and
safeguard the animal including leaving a specified written notice
and amendments to include "firefighters" as authorized responder
and provide that responders receiving an animal from a person
who has removed it from the vehicle is responsible for leaving the
required notice on the vehicle, i.e. not the person.
