LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 1580, as amended, Committee on Governmental Organization. State
surplus property: armories: sales.
Existing law authorizes the Director of General Services to

The California Constitution and related statutory law require the net

Deficit Recovery Bond Retirement Sinking Fund Subaccount, except as
otherwise provided by law. Existing law also authorizes the Director
of General Services, with the approval of the Adjutant General, to
lease and sell real property held for armory purposes, subject to
legislative approval. Existing law establishes the Armory Fund and
requires that the proceeds from the sale or lease of armories be
deposited in the fund, for use, upon appropriation by the
Legislature, for specified purposes related to armories.
This bill would authorize the Director of General Services, with
the approval of the Adjutant General, to sell specified armories
, including improvements made to those armories . This bill
would, notwithstanding the requirement for payment of sale proceeds
into the Deficit Recovery Bond Retirement Sinking Fund Subaccount,
require the proceeds from the sale to be deposited in the Armory
Fund. This bill would require the Department of General Services
to be reimbursed for any reasonable costs or expenses incurred in
conducting a transaction involving those armories, as specified.
