INTRODUCED BY   Senator Harman

                        FEBRUARY 15, 2011

   An act to amend Section 5003.17 of the Public Resources Code,
relating to state parks.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 386, as introduced, Harman. State parks: leasing of real
property.
   Existing law authorizes the Department of Parks and Recreation to
lease, for any use, all or any portion of any parcel of real property
acquired for state park system purposes if the Director of Parks and
Recreation finds that the use would be compatible with the use of
the real property as a unit or part of a unit and with the sound
management and conservation of resources within the unit, and
prescribes terms and conditions for the lease of the real property.
   This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes in those
provisions.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


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

  SECTION 1.  Section 5003.17 of the Public Resources Code is amended
to read:
   5003.17.  (a) The department may lease, for any use, all or any
portion of any parcel of real property acquired for state park system
purposes  ,  if the director finds that the use
would be compatible with the use of the real property as a unit or
part of a unit and with the sound management and conservation of
resources within the unit.
   (b) Rent shall be based on the fair market value of the property
when  it is  used for the purpose for which it is leased.
All rent shall be deposited  pursuant to   in
accordance with  Section 5010.
   (c) The lease term shall not exceed 10 years. All leases are
subject to the approval of the Department of General Services.
   (d) No lease shall be entered into that extends beyond the 10-year
period unless the Legislature has reviewed and approved the proposed
lease as part of the annual budget process, or the Public Works
Board has determined that the proposed lease could not have been
presented to the Legislature for review and approval in the course of
its consideration of the Budget Bill and that it would be adverse to
the interests of the public to defer that review and approval to a
time when the Legislature next considers a Budget Bill. Upon making
that determination, the board may review and approve the proposed
lease after  giving   providing  at least
20 days' written notice to the Chairperson of the Joint Legislative
Budget Committee and to the chairperson of the fiscal and appropriate
policy committees of its intended action. All actions taken by the
board pursuant to this subdivision shall be reported to the
Legislature in the next Governor's Budget.
