Political Reform Act Campaign Disclosure Requirements and Filings

California campaign finance disclosure law requires local elected officeholders, candidates for local elected offices, and committees in support or opposed to local candidates to file their campaign disclosure reports with the City Clerk at specified intervals.

Beginning January 1, 2021, AB2151 requires campaign statements and reports to be posted online within 72 hours of each applicable filing deadline. If the final day of the 72-hour period is a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday, the period is extended to the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday.

Pursuant to California Government Code Section 84615(f):  Campaign Financial Statements. The data made available on the Internet shall not contain the street name and building number of the persons or entity representatives listed on the electronically filed forms or any bank account number required to be disclosed by the filer. The local filing officer shall make a complete, unredacted copy of any statement, report, or other document filed pursuant to this section, including any street names, building numbers, and bank account numbers disclosed by the filer, available to any person upon request.
