. (a) For the purposes of coordinating local criminal justice
activities and planning for the use of state and federal action funds
made available through any grant programs, criminal justice and
delinquency prevention planning districts shall be established.
(b) On January 1, 1976, all planning district boundaries shall
remain as they were immediately prior to that date. Thereafter, the
number and boundaries of those planning districts may be altered from
time to time pursuant to this section; provided that no county shall
be divided into two or more districts, nor shall two or more
counties which do not comprise a contiguous area form a single
district.
(c) Prior to taking any action to alter the boundaries of any
planning district, the council shall adopt a resolution indicating
its intention to take the action and, at least 90 days prior to the
taking of the action, shall forward a copy of the resolution to all
units of government directly affected by the proposed action.
(d) If any county or a majority of the cities directly affected by
the proposed action objects thereto, and a copy of the resolution of
each board of supervisors or city council stating its objection is
delivered to the Director of Emergency Services within 30 days
following the giving of the notice of the proposed action, the
director shall conduct a public meeting within the boundaries of the
district as they are proposed to be determined. Notice of the time
and place of the meeting shall be given to the public and to all
units of local government directly affected by the proposed action,
and reasonable opportunity shall be given to members of the public
and representatives of those units to present their views on the
proposed action.
