Summary

Existing law requires the Department of General Services to dispose of surplus state real property in a specified manner, including, but not limited to, prescribing the priority of disposition of the property before the department offers it for sale to private entities or individuals. Existing law declares that the provision of decent housing for all Californians is a state goal of the highest priority and that priority be given to the disposal of surplus state real property to housing for persons and families of low or moderate income. Existing law requires a local agency or nonprofit affordable housing sponsor, in order to be considered as a potential priority buyer of certain surplus state real property, as defined, to, among other things, demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the department, that the surplus state real property, or a portion of that surplus state real property, is to be used by the local agency or nonprofit affordable housing sponsor for open space, public parks, affordable housing projects, development of projects that create sustainable employment opportunities of benefit to the area and region where the property is located, or development of local government-owned facilities. This bill would require a local agency or nonprofit affordable housing sponsor that wishes to be considered a priority buyer of the state real property known as Lanterman Developmental Center, located in Pomona, Los Angeles County, which has been declared to be surplus state real property, to additionally demonstrate to the department that the local agency or nonprofit affordable housing sponsor will use the property for the development of projects that create sustainable employment opportunities of benefit to the area and region where the property is located. This bill would, notwithstanding any other law, additionally prohibit that property from being prezoned, zoned, or rezoned unless the Department of General Services requests that the property be rezoned or approves the rezoning of the property. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the Lanterman Developmental Center.
