	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 1652, Vincent  Community colleges: facilities: leases.
   Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges under
the administration of the Board of Governors of the California
Community Colleges. Existing law authorizes the establishment of
community college districts under the administration of community
college governing boards, and authorizes these districts to provide
instruction at community college campuses throughout the state.
   Existing law authorizes the governing board of a community college
district to lease certain property not needed for school classroom
buildings for a period not exceeding 5 separate or consecutive
calendar days, or portions of those days, in each fiscal year.
Existing law also authorizes the governing board to lease certain
property not needed for academic activities, for a period of more
than 5 days but less than 5 years, as determined by the governing
board.
   This bill would revise the provision relating to leases for a
period not exceeding 5 separate or consecutive calendar days or
portions of those days, to instead authorize the lease of property
not needed for school classroom buildings for a period not exceeding
14 separate or consecutive calendar days, or portions of those days,
in each fiscal year.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:


  SECTION 1.  Section 81378 of the Education Code is amended to read:

   81378.  The governing board of a community college district,
without complying with any other provision of this article, may lease
in the name of the district any buildings, grounds, or space
therein, together with any personal property located thereon, not
needed for school classroom buildings upon terms and conditions
agreed upon by the governing board of the district and the lessee for
a period not exceeding 14 separate or consecutive calendar days, or
portions of those days, in each fiscal year.
