The Legislature finds and declares that properly timed capital outlays for needed public works are an important instrument for combating unemployment and for maintaining a healthy state economy. It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this chapter to establish procedures whereby an inventory of public works may be made available for implementation on short notice when and if funds become available during periods of temporary severe unemployment.

(Amended by Stats. 1983, Ch. 323, Sec. 48. Effective July 1, 1983.)
