Land use: economic development: surplus land.Existing law authorizes a city, county, or city and county, with the approval of its legislative body by resolution after a public hearing, to acquire, sell, or lease property in furtherance of the creation of an economic opportunity, as defined. Existing law provides that this authorization is an alternative to any other authority granted by law to cities to dispose of city-owned property.This bill would revise those provisions to authorize a city, county, or city and county to, in addition to a sale or lease of property, otherwise transfer property under the above-described provisions to create an economic opportunity and would make related, conforming changes to these procedures. The bill would require the city, county, or city and county, to submit a report containing specified information to the Controller within 90 days after adopting the resolution approving the acquisition, sale, lease, or transfer of the property. The bill would also specify that these provisions are an alternative to any other authority or procedures for a city, county, or city and county to acquire, sell, lease, or otherwise transfer real property owned by a city, county, or city and county.On and after January 1, 2014, existing law generally requires a local agency, before approving an economic development subsidy within its jurisdiction, to provide specified information in written form to the public and through its internet website, and to hold public hearings and report on those subsidies at specified intervals. Existing law requires that the creation of an economic opportunity, as described above, comply with these public notice, hearing, and reporting requirements.This bill would provide that the creation of an economic opportunity under these provisions is subject only to the above-described requirements regarding approval of an economic development subsidy.Existing law prescribes requirements for the disposal of surplus land by a local agency, including requiring that the local agency send a written notice of availability of the property to specified entities before disposing of that property or participating in negotiations to dispose of that property with a prospective transferee and, upon receipt of a notice of interest from an entity desiring to purchase or lease the surplus land, enter into good faith negotiations with that entity to determine a mutually satisfactory sales price and terms or lease terms, as provided. Existing law exempts from these procedures various types of surplus land, referred to as exempt surplus land.This bill would additionally exempt from these requirements the disposal of surplus land by a local agency properties that a local agency proposes to sell, lease, or otherwise transfer under the above-described provisions authorizing the transfer of land in furtherance of the creation of an economic opportunity.The Planning and Zoning Law requires each county and city to adopt a comprehensive, long-term general plan for its physical development, and the development of certain lands outside its boundaries, that includes, among other mandatory elements, a land use element that designates the proposed general distribution and general location and extent of the uses of the land for housing, business, industry, and other categories of public and private uses of land, as prescribed.This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the provision describing the required land use element.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY  Appropriation: NO  Fiscal Committee: NOYES  Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1.
