	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 649, Ashburn. Transportation.
   Existing law provides that the Department of Transportation has
full possession and control of the state highway system and
associated property. Existing law authorizes the department to sell
real property that is no longer necessary for highway purposes.
   This bill would require the Department of Transportation to
transfer, for fair market value, on or before June 30, 2010,
ownership of a specified portion of a parcel of land in Kern County
acquired for the Mojave Bypass to the East Kern Airport District for
open-space purposes.


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

  SECTION 1.  On or before June 30, 2010, the Department of
Transportation shall transfer, for fair market value, ownership of
577 acres known as Site A of the Mojave Bypass property in Kern
County, except for that portion of the property constituting the
right-of-way for State Highway Route 14, to the East Kern Airport
District for open-space purposes.
