SUMMARY:
This bill authorizes the Department of General Services (DGS) to
renew existing lease agreements, for up to 50 years, with the
Napa and Solano County Offices of Education (COEs) to continue
operating special needs and alternative education programs on
the grounds of the Napa State Hospital (NSH), with the consent
of the Department of State Hospitals (DSH), and adjacent to the
California Medical Facility (CMF) in Vacaville, with the consent
of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation

(CDCR).
FISCAL EFFECT:
Minor one-time administrative costs to DGS, to be reimbursed by
the COEs, and minor ongoing lease revenues.
COMMENTS:
Purpose. According to the author, this bill is needed to allow
the respective COEs to continue providing educational services
and learning support to special needs students at the Napa COE
Education Center at NSH and the Irene Larsen Educational Center
located adjacent to the CMF.
The Solano COE is particularly concerned because its lease with
DGS is set to expire in January 2018. The author reports that
DGS, CDCR, and the Solano COE all intend to renew the lease and
this bill provides the necessary statutory authorization to
execute a new lease by specifying an additional 50-year lease
renewal period.
