Section 52889.  


Latest version.
  • The secretary may require the board to correct or cease any activity or function that is determined by the secretary not to be in the public interest or that is in violation of this chapter. If the board refuses or fails to cease those activities or functions or to make such corrections as required by the secretary, the secretary may, upon written notice, suspend all or a portion of the activities of the board until the time that the cessation or correction of activities or functions as required by the secretary have been accomplished.

    Written notice to cease any activity that is the subject of a contract entered into by the board prior to the notice, shall not be effective until after the period of notice for termination provided in the contract or 120 days, whichever is shorter. Upon service of the written notice, the secretary shall give written notification to the board of the specific acts that the secretary determines are not in the public interest or are in violation of this chapter.
