Summary

Existing law establishes various plans and programs intended to preserve, protect, and rehabilitate lands adjacent to rivers in the state. This bill would enact the Greenway Development and Sustainment Act, which is intended to promote the development of greenways along urban rivers in the state, including the development of a greenway along the Los Angeles River and its tributaries. The bill would define the term "greenway" for purposes of the bill as a nonmotorized vehicle transportation and recreational travel corridor that meets specified requirements and would include greenways in the definition of "open-space land" for local planning purposes. Existing law authorizes certain entities and organizations to acquire and hold conservation easements, including a tax exempt nonprofit organization qualified to do business in this state that has as its primary purpose the preservation, protection, or enhancement of land in its natural, scenic, historical, agricultural, forested, or open-space condition or use. This bill would also authorize such a tax exempt nonprofit organization to acquire and hold a conservation easement if the organization has as its primary purpose the development of a greenway.
