BILL TEXT
INTRODUCED BY Assembly Member Hagman
FEBRUARY 12, 2014
An act to amend Sections 17462.3 and 17489 of the Education Code,
relating to school facilities.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 1664, as introduced, Hagman. School facilities: sale or lease
of real property.
(1) Existing law authorizes the State Allocation Board to
establish a program under which it would require a school district,
county office of education, or charter school that sells real
property that was purchased with or modernized with, or on which
improvements were constructed that were funded with, any moneys from
a state school facilities funding program, to return to the board the
moneys the school district, county office of education, or charter
school received from the state school facilities funding program for
the purchase, modernization, or construction if certain conditions
are met. Under this program, moneys received within 10 years before
the real property is sold would be required to be returned if the
real property is not sold to a charter school, a school district, a
county office of education, or an agency that will use the property
exclusively for the delivery of child care and development services,
in accordance with a statute that requires property first be offered
to a charter school before alternate disposition.
This bill would specify that, under the authorized program, the
moneys would have to be returned if the real property is not sold to
a charter school in accordance with that statute, or if the real
property is not sold to a school district, a county office of
education, or an agency that will use the property exclusively for
the delivery of child care and development services if the real
property has been deemed to be surplus and a charter school has not
accepted an offer to purchase or lease.
(2) Existing law requires the governing board of a school
district, before selling or leasing a schoolsite consisting in whole
or in part of land suited or used for outdoor recreation, if a
charter school has not accepted an offer to purchase or lease the
schoolsite pursuant to a specified statute, to first offer to sell or
lease that portion of the schoolsite suited for outdoor recreation,
to the extent not retained by the governing board, to one of
specified local agencies.
This bill would exempt from this requirement land to which this
provision would otherwise apply, but which is subject to the
provisions described in (1) above because it was purchased with or
modernized with, or improvements were constructed on it that were
funded with, any moneys from a state school facilities funding
program. The bill would authorize the governing board of a school
district in this instance, after first offering the schoolsite for
sale or lease to a charter school pursuant to a prescribed statute,
to offer to sell or lease the property to another school district, a
county office of education, or an agency that will use the property
exclusively for the delivery of child care and development services
before offering to sell or lease the property to one of the local
agencies referenced above.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
