11		-	Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
12		-	SECTION 1. Legislative declaration. (1) The general assembly
13		-	finds and declares that:
14		-	(a) In 2011, the state historical society, also known as history
15		-	Colorado, acquired property that is referred to as the north storage facility
16		-	(facility), which is the current collections storage facility and the state
17		-	historical fund document repository. Initially, history Colorado intended to
18		-	use the facility for temporary storage of large items in the collection while
19		-	the history Colorado center was built, but it became clear that the storage
20		-	space was still needed to house the collection and the facility was switched
21		-	to permanent storage.
22		-	NOTE: This bill has been prepared for the signatures of the appropriate legislative
23		-	officers and the Governor. To determine whether the Governor has signed the bill
24		-	or taken other action on it, please consult the legislative status sheet, the legislative
25		-	history, or the Session Laws.

28		-	through words or numbers indicate deletions from existing law and such material is not part of
29		-	the act. (b) The collection has continued to grow and there are currently
30		-	85,000 square feet of artifacts, which is more square footage than the
31		-	facility adequately provides, making it too small to meet the storage and
32		-	care needs of history Colorado. Additionally, issues with the different
33		-	building systems, including electrical, mechanical, and fire suppression,
34		-	make it difficult to maintain an optimal care environment for the collection.
35		-	(c) History Colorado has determined that, due to these challenges,
36		-	the facility is no longer a suitable facility for the consolidated collections,
37		-	care, and storage necessary to house significant artifacts that history
38		-	Colorado is statutorily responsible for collecting and preserving on the
39		-	state's behalf. The disposition of the property will be in the best interest of
40		-	the organization and allow history Colorado to lease a more suitable facility
41		-	for ongoing storage and care of the collection and to provide current and
42		-	future controlled maintenance needs of all of history Colorado's community
43		-	and historic sites.
44		-	SECTION 2. History Colorado authority to dispose of real
45		-	property. (1) The state, acting by and through the state historical society,
46		-	also known as history Colorado, is authorized to dispose of real property
47		-	located at 1100 W. 47th Ave., Denver, Colorado 80211, lots 13 to 36

51		-	(2) The capital development committee and the state controller must
52		-	approve all agreements relating to the disposition of the real property
53		-	described in subsection (1) of this section prior to closing.
54		-	(3) History Colorado shall credit the proceeds of the disposition of
55		-	the real property described in subsection (1) of this section to the state
56		-	museum cash fund created in section 24-80-214, Colorado Revised Statutes,
57		-	to be used for moving, retrofitting, lease-related, and acquisition costs for
58		-	a new storage facility that history Colorado will lease in the future or for
59		-	controlled maintenance.
60		-	SECTION 3. Act subject to petition - effective date. This act
61		-	takes effect at 12:01 a.m. on the day following the expiration of the
62		-	ninety-day period after final adjournment of the general assembly; except
