Bill Summary · ACR 47

Legislative bill overview

ACR 47 is a California Assembly Concurrent Resolution that designates a specific week as National Surveyors Week in California. The bill passed unanimously through the State Senate and was formally adopted by the Assembly, receiving no opposing votes.

Why is this important

Concurrent resolutions are ceremonial measures that recognize or honor professions, groups, or observances without creating new law or appropriating funds. This resolution acknowledges the professional contributions of surveyors to California's infrastructure, property development, and public works projects.

Potential points of contention

  • Ceremonial nature: This is a non-binding symbolic measure with no regulatory or budgetary impact, raising questions about whether legislative time spent on such resolutions is an efficient use of resources
  • Selectivity of professions: Critics may question why surveyors receive this recognition while other essential professions do not, or whether this represents special interest advocacy
  • Lack of substantive benefit: The resolution provides no tangible protections, funding, or regulatory changes that directly benefit the surveying profession or public
