Cal. Gov. Code § 53760.5
Notwithstanding Section 53760.3, a local public entity may file a petition and exercise powers pursuant to applicable federal bankruptcy law, if the local public entity declares a fiscal emergency and adopts a resolution by a majority vote of the governing board at a noticed public hearing that includes findings that the financial state of the local public entity jeopardizes the health, safety, or well-being of the residents of the local public entity's jurisdiction or service area absent the protections of Chapter 9. The resolution shall make findings that the public entity is or will be unable to pay its obligations within the next 60 days. Prior to a declaration of fiscal emergency and adoption of a resolution, the local public entity shall place an item on the agenda of a noticed public hearing on the fiscal condition of the entity to take public comment. The board of supervisors of a county that intends to take action pursuant to this section and places a notice on an agenda regarding a proposed resolution to declare a fiscal emergency may require local agencies with funds invested in the county treasury to provide a five-day notice of withdrawal before the county is required to comply with a request for withdrawal of funds by that local agency.
