INTRODUCED BY   Senator Wolk
    (   Coauthor:   Assembly Member  
Dodd   ) 

                        FEBRUARY 17, 2016

   An act to amend Section 11011.24 of the Government Code, relating
to surplus state property, and making an appropriation therefor.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 1119, as amended, Wolk. Surplus state property:  County
of Napa.   Napa County Regional Park and Open Space
District. 
   Existing law authorizes the Director of General Services to sell
or exchange, at fair market value based upon an appraisal approved by
the Department of General Services, all or part of a specified
parcel of state property only to the County of Napa upon those terms,
conditions, reservations, and exceptions the director determines are
in the best interest of the state, by January 1, 2015, and subject
to other requirements. Existing law requires reimbursement of the
Department of General Services for any cost or expense incurred in
the disposition of the property from the proceeds of the disposition
of the property. Existing law requires the proceeds from this sale to
be deposited in the Deficit Recovery Bond Retirement Sinking Fund
Subaccount until the bonds associated with this subaccount are
finally paid.
   This bill would  apply the authorization described above to
apply to the Napa County Regional Park and Open Space District
instead of Napa County and would  extend the period within which
the sale described above may be made to January 1, 2021. The bill
would revise the reference to the Deficit Recovery Bond Retirement
Sinking Fund Subaccount, given that the principal and interest on the
bonds  has   have  been provided and no
more bonds are outstanding. Consistent with requirements of the
California Constitution, the bill would direct that proceeds be paid
into the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties, which is
continuously appropriated. By depositing money in a continuously
appropriated fund, the bill would make an appropriation.
   This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to
the necessity of a special statute for the  County of Napa.
  Napa County Regional Park and Open Space District.

   Vote: 2/3. Appropriation: yes. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.

and Open Space District,  upon those terms and conditions and
subject to those reservations and exceptions the director determines
are in the best interests of the state, all or any part of the
following real property, by January 1, 2021, after which date, if not

within the meaning of subdivision (b) of Section 16 of Article IV of
the California Constitution. Therefore, this special statute is
necessary.
