In plain language

The bill extends the ability of school districts to lease land for $1 per year for five more years.

This bill allows school districts to continue leasing real property for $1 annually, provided the lessee constructs a building for the district. The current provisions will now remain in effect until July 1, 2027.

What this means for you
  • Workers: Construction workers may benefit from increased projects related to school facilities due to this extended lease option.
  • Families: This means potentially more resources for local schools, which can lead to better facilities for students.
  • Small Business: Local businesses might see opportunities related to construction and development projects for school properties.

Summary

Existing law requires the governing board of a school district to adopt a resolution that, among other things: (1) declares its intention to enter into a lease or agreement relating to school property, (2) includes specified information about the property, and (3) fixes a time for a public meeting of the governing board of the school district at which sealed proposals to enter a lease or agreement with the school district will be received from any person, firm, or corporation, and considered by the governing board of the school district, as specified. Existing law, notwithstanding those provisions, and until July 1, 2027, authorizes the governing board of a school district to lease real property for a minimum rental of $1 per year if the instrument by which this property is leased requires the lessee to construct, or provide for the construction of, a building to be used by the school district and requires the title to the building to vest in the school district at the end of the lease. Existing law requires the instrument created pursuant to these provisions to be awarded based on a competitive solicitation process to the proposer providing the best value to the school district, as specified. Existing law authorizes a school district, for purposes of using preconstruction services, to enter into an instrument before written approval is obtained from the Department of General Services' Division of the State Architect under specified circumstances. Existing law authorizes a school district to identify specific types of subcontractors required to be included in a proposal, and imposes specified other procedural requirements on awarding construction subcontracts of a certain value. This bill would extend the operation of those provisions by 5 years by instead making the provisions described above inoperative on July 1, 2027, and repealing them as of January 1, 2028.
