This bill died with 2021-2022 Regular Session. It reached “To Executive” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there are no live odds of enactment. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

Existing law authorizes the Department of General Services (department) to dispose of surplus state real property by sale, lease, exchange, sale combined with an exchange, or other manner of disposition authorized by the Legislature, upon terms and conditions and subject to any reservation and exceptions the department deems to be in the best interests of the state. This authorization also declares that the provision of housing for Californians is a goal of the highest priority, and the intent of the Legislature that priority be given in the disposal of surplus state real property to housing for persons and families of low or moderate income. Existing law requires each state agency, on or before December 31 of each year, to make a review of all proprietary state lands, with specified exceptions, over which it has jurisdiction, to determine what, if any, land is in excess of its foreseeable needs and report thereon in writing to the department. Existing law, the California Public Records Act, requires state and local agencies to make their records available for public inspection, unless an exemption from disclosure applies. This bill would require colleges, universities, and nonprofit entities, as specified, for projects, as defined, to ensure a skilled and trained workforce is used to complete those projects, including by sending a notice of solicitation to specific entities, requiring contractors and subcontractors to pay prevailing wages to employees, establishing a process to prequalify prime contractors and subcontractors, and providing a monthly compliance report, among other things. The bill would make that compliance report a public record under the California Public Records Act. The bill would define terms for its purposes. This bill would authorize the department to transfer, without charge, a parcel of property in Sacramento, California, if that parcel is reported as excess, to the Regents of the University of California to be used by the University of California at Davis (UC Davis) for prescribed purposes, including using the majority of the developed square footage on the property to provide below local market rental rate housing for students, staff, and faculty, as described. The bill would require UC Davis to reimburse the department for all actual costs incurred as a result of the transfer, as described, and all actual costs related for early termination of specified contracts, as described. This bill would also provide that if the Regents of the University of California have not begun a formal planning process within a year of the transfer or indicate that they will not use the parcel for its intended purposes, the parcel shall revert to the department, and would then be reviewed to determine if the land is in excess.

Frequently asked questions

What does AB 777 do?
Existing law authorizes the Department of General Services (department) to dispose of surplus state real property by sale, lease, exchange, sale combined with an exchange, or other manner of disposition authorized by the Legislature, upon terms and conditions and subject to any reservation and exceptions the department deems to be in the best interests of the state. This authorization also declares that the provision of housing for Californians is a goal of the highest priority, and the intent of the Legislature that priority be given in the disposal of surplus state real property to housing for persons and families of low or moderate income. Existing law requires each state agency, on or before December 31 of each year, to make a review of all proprietary state lands, with specified exceptions, over which it has jurisdiction, to determine what, if any, land is in excess of its foreseeable needs and report thereon in writing to the department. Existing law, the California Public Records Act, requires state and local agencies to make their records available for public inspection, unless an exemption from disclosure applies. This bill would require colleges, universities, and nonprofit entities, as specified, for projects, as defined, to ensure a skilled and trained workforce is used to complete those projects, including by sending a notice of solicitation to specific entities, requiring contractors and subcontractors to pay prevailing wages to employees, establishing a process to prequalify prime contractors and subcontractors, and providing a monthly compliance report, among other things. The bill would make that compliance report a public record under the California Public Records Act. The bill would define terms for its purposes. This bill would authorize the department to transfer, without charge, a parcel of property in Sacramento, California, if that parcel is reported as excess, to the Regents of the University of California to be used by the University of California at Davis (UC Davis) for prescribed purposes, including using the majority of the developed square footage on the property to provide below local market rental rate housing for students, staff, and faculty, as described. The bill would require UC Davis to reimburse the department for all actual costs incurred as a result of the transfer, as described, and all actual costs related for early termination of specified contracts, as described. This bill would also provide that if the Regents of the University of California have not begun a formal planning process within a year of the transfer or indicate that they will not use the parcel for its intended purposes, the parcel shall revert to the department, and would then be reviewed to determine if the land is in excess.
