	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 2016, McPherson.  State property:  Salinas.
   Existing law authorizes the Director of General Services to
execute grants to real property belonging to the state, whenever the
sale or exchange of real property is authorized or contemplated by
law, if no other state agency is specifically authorized and directed
to execute the grant.  Existing law also authorizes the director,
upon the written request and consent of the state agency with control
or jurisdiction over the property concerned and under specified
circumstances, to sell, convey, or exchange properties that are not
needed by any state agency at fair market value following notice to a
specified committee and members of the Legislature.
   This bill would authorize the director to transfer and convey,
without charge or consideration, to the City of Salinas, all rights,
title, and interests held by the state in the real property situated
at 342 Front Street, Salinas, California.
  This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an
urgency statute.


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


  SECTION 1.  Section 14673.6 is added to the Government Code, to
read:

convey, without charge or consideration, to the City of Salinas, all
rights, title, and interests, including any equitable interest, held
by the state in the real property situated at 342 Front Street,
Salinas, California.  The Legislature hereby finds that it has deemed
the subject property, formerly used as an Employment Development
Department office, as surplus and that the city has received a
transfer of property interests from the United States for any
interest held by the United States Department of Labor in that
property.
  SEC. 2.  This act is an urgency statute necessary for the immediate
preservation of the public peace, health, or safety within the
meaning of Article IV of the Constitution and shall go into immediate
effect.  The facts constituting the necessity are:
   In order that the Director of General Services may transfer and
convey certain state property, without charge or consideration, at
the earliest possible time, it is necessary for this act to go into
immediate effect.
