4 year degrees at Calif Community Colleges?

Recently on the Chronicle for Higher Education, it was noted that the California State Senate approved a bill which allows California Community Colleges to offer limited 4 year degrees.  The article states:

The California Senate has given final legislative approval to a bill that would allow some community colleges to offer four-year degrees.
Brice W. Harris, chancellor of the community-college system, applauded the bill’s passage, saying many fields now require employees to have “higher skill sets than are offered through associate-degree programs.” The bill will allow community colleges to confer bachelor’s degrees in areas not currently served by the state’s two university systems, he said in a news release
