SUPPORTING SB 1000 (HARMAN), WHICH ENHANCES LOCAL CONTROL OVER DRUG AND
ALCOHOL REHABILITATION CENTERS

in single-family residential neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, rnany of these facilities serve as drug, alcohol, and substance abuse treatment centers;
and
WHEREAS, these substance abuse treatment centers are not licensed by the state, and local
agencies have little to no control over their placement and appropriateness in residential
neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, SB 1000 will provide local authorities the jurisdiction to conduct on site inspections,
create new conformity standards for violating facilities and mandate that residents of these facilities
stay drug and alcohol free while living in a residential rehabilitation facility; and
WHEREAS, SB 1000 will bring consistency to state policy by applying the state's current existing

residential rehabilitation facilities; and
