Division 13 of the Public Resources Code, the execution of the
purchase and sale agreement or of the exchange agreement by all
parties to the agreement shall be exempt from Chapter 3 (commencing
with Section 21100) to Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 21165),
inclusive, of Division 13 of the Public Resources Code.
   (3) For the purposes of this subdivision, "disposition" means the
sale, exchange, sale combined with an exchange, or transfer of a
parcel of surplus state property.



11011.1.  (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, except
Article 8.5 (commencing with Section 54235) of Chapter 5 of Part 1 of
Division 2 of Title 5, the disposal of surplus state real property
by the Department of General Services shall be subject to the
requirements of this section. For purposes of this section, "surplus
state real property" means real property declared surplus by the
Legislature and directed to be disposed of by the Department of
General Services, including any real property previously declared
surplus by the Legislature but not yet disposed of by the Department
of General Services prior to the enactment of this section.
   (b) (1) The department may dispose of surplus state real property
by sale, lease, exchange, a sale combined with an exchange, or other
manner of disposition of property, as authorized by the Legislature,
upon any terms and conditions and subject to any reservations and
exceptions the department deems to be in the best interests of the
state.
   (2) (A) The Legislature finds and declares that the provision of
decent housing for all Californians is a state goal of the highest
priority. The disposal of surplus state real property is a direct and
substantial public purpose of statewide concern and will serve an
important public purpose, including mitigating the environmental
effects of state activities. Therefore, it is the intent of the
Legislature that priority be given, as specified in this section, to
the disposal of surplus state real property to housing for persons
and families of low or moderate income, where land is suitable for
housing and there is a need for housing in the community.
   (B) Surplus state real property that has been determined by the
department not to be needed by any state agency shall be offered to
any local agency, as defined in subdivision (a) of Section 54221, and
then to nonprofit affordable housing sponsors, prior to being
offered for sale to private entities or individuals. As used in this
subdivision, "nonprofit affordable housing sponsor" means any of the
following:
   (i) A nonprofit corporation incorporated pursuant to Division 2
(commencing with Section 5000) of Title 1 of the Corporations Code.
   (ii) A cooperative housing corporation which is a stock
cooperative, as defined by Section 11003.2 of the Business and
Professions Code.
   (iii) A limited-dividend housing corporation.
   (C) The department, subject to this section, shall maintain a list
of surplus state real property in a conspicuous place on its
Internet Web site. The department shall provide local agencies and,
upon request, members of the public, with electronic notification of
updates to the list of properties.
   (D) To be considered as a potential priority buyer of the surplus
state real property, a local agency or nonprofit affordable housing
sponsor shall notify the department of its interest in the surplus
state real property within 90 days of the department posting on its
Internet Web site the notice of the availability of the surplus state
real property. The local agency or nonprofit affordable housing
sponsor shall demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the department,
that the surplus state real property, or 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, or development of local government-owned
facilities. When more than one local agency expresses an interest in
the surplus state real property, priority shall be given to the local
agency that intends to use the surplus state real property for
affordable housing. If no agreement or transfer of title occurs, the
priority shall next be given to the local agency that intends to use
the surplus state real property for open space, public parks, or
development of local government-owned facilities. The sales agreement
shall be executed by the local agency or nonprofit affordable
housing sponsor within 60 days after the director determines the
local agency or nonprofit affordable housing sponsor is to receive
the surplus state real property. The sale of the surplus state real
property to a local agency or nonprofit affordable housing sponsor
pursuant to this section shall be completed, and title transferred,
within 60 days of the date the department executes the sales
agreement, or, if required by law, no later than 60 days after the
State Public Works Board has authorized the sale. If the sale of a
surplus state real property to a local agency or nonprofit affordable
housing sponsor is not completed within the timeframe specified in
this subparagraph, then the department shall proceed with the process
for disposal to other private entities or individuals.
   (c) (1) If more than one local agency desires the surplus state
real property for use as an open space, a public park, or the
development of a local government-owned facility, the department
shall transfer the surplus state real property to the local agency
offering the highest price above fair market value. If more than one
local agency desires the surplus state real property for use as an
affordable housing project, the department shall transfer the surplus
state real property to the local agency offering the greatest number
of affordable housing units. If more than one nonprofit affordable
housing sponsor desires the surplus state real property for use as an
affordable housing project, the department shall transfer the
surplus state real property to the nonprofit affordable housing
sponsor offering the greatest number of affordable housing units.
   (2) If no local agency or nonprofit affordable housing sponsor is
interested, or an agreement, as provided above, is not reached, then
the disposal of the surplus state real property to private entities
or individuals shall be pursuant to a public bidding process designed
to obtain the highest most certain return for the state from a
responsible bidder, and any transaction based on such a bidding
process shall be deemed to be the fair market value for the purposes
of the reporting requirements pursuant to subdivision (d).
   (3) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the department may
sell surplus state real property, or a portion of surplus state real
property, to a local agency, or to a nonprofit affordable housing
sponsor if no local agency is interested in the surplus state real
property, for affordable housing projects at a sales price less than
fair market value if the department determines that such a discount
will enable the provision of housing for persons and families of low
or moderate income. Nothing shall preclude a local agency that
purchases the surplus state real property for affordable housing from
reconveying the surplus state real property to a nonprofit
affordable housing sponsor for development of affordable housing.
Transfer of title to the surplus state real property or lease of the
surplus state real property for affordable housing shall be
conditioned upon continued use of the surplus state real property as
housing for persons and families of low and moderate income for at
least 40 years and the department shall record a regulatory agreement
that imposes affordability covenants, conditions, and restrictions
on the surplus state real property. The regulatory agreement shall be
a first priority lien on the surplus state real property and last
for a period of at least 40 years, and if another state agency is
lending funds for a project, a combined regulatory agreement shall be
utilized. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the regulatory
agreement shall not be subordinated to any other lien or encumbrance
except for any federal loan program the statutes or regulations of
which require a first priority lien for that federal loan.
   (4) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Director of
General Services may transfer surplus state real property to a local
agency for less than fair market value if the local agency uses the
surplus state real property for parks or open-space purposes. The
deed or other instrument of transfer shall provide that the surplus
state real property would revert to the state if the use changed to a
use other than parks or open-space purposes during the period of 25
years after the transfer date. For the purpose of this paragraph,
"open-space purposes" means the use of land for public recreation,
enjoyment of scenic beauty, or conservation or use of natural
resources.
   (d) Thirty days prior to executing a transaction for a sale,
lease, exchange, a sale combined with an exchange, or other manner of
disposition of the surplus state real property for less than fair
market value or for affordable housing, or as authorized by the
Legislature, the Director of General Services shall report to the
chairpersons of the fiscal committees of the Legislature all of the
following:
   (1) The financial terms of the transaction.
   (2) A comparison of fair market value for the surplus state real
property and the terms listed in paragraph (1).
   (3) The basis for agreeing to terms and conditions other than fair
market value.
   (e) As to surplus state real property sold or exchanged pursuant
to this section, the director shall except and reserve to the state
all mineral deposits, as described in Section 6407 of the Public
Resources Code, together with the right to prospect for, mine, and
remove the deposits. If, however, the director determines that there
is little or no potential for mineral deposits, the reservation may
be without surface right of entry above a depth of 500 feet, or the
rights to prospect for, mine, and remove the deposits shall be
limited to those areas of the surplus state real property conveyed
that the director determines to be reasonably necessary for the
removal of the deposits.
   (f) The failure to comply with this section, except for
subdivision (d), shall not invalidate the transfer or conveyance of
surplus state real property to a purchaser for value.
   (g) For purposes of this section, fair market value is established
by an appraisal and economic evaluation conducted by the department
or approved by the department.



11011.2.  (a) (1) Notwithstanding any other law, including, but not
limited to, Sections 11011 and 14670, except as provided in this
section, the Department of General Services may lease real property
under the jurisdiction of a state agency, department, or district
agricultural association, if the Director of General Services
determines that the real property is of no immediate need to the
state but may have some potential future use to the program needs of
the agency, department, or district agricultural association.
   (2) The Director of General Services may not lease any of the
following real property pursuant to this section:
   (A) Tax-deeded land or lands under the jurisdiction of the State
Lands Commission.
   (B) Land that has escheated to the state or that has been
distributed to the state by court decree in estates of deceased
persons.
   (C) Lands under the jurisdiction of the State Coastal Conservancy

Game.
   (3) A lease entered into pursuant to this section shall be set at
the amount of the lease's fair market value, as determined by the
Director of General Services. The Director of General Services may
determine the length of term or a use of the lease, and specify any
other terms and conditions which are determined to be in the best
interest of the state.
   (b) The Department of General Services may enter into a long-term
lease of real property pursuant to this section that has outstanding
lease revenue bonds and for which the real property cannot be
disencumbered from the bonds, only if the issuer and trustee for the
bonds approves the lease transaction, and this approval takes into
consideration, among other things, that the proposed lease
transaction does not breach a covenant or obligation of the issuer or
trustee.
   (c) (1) All issuer- and trustee-related costs for reviewing a
proposed lease transaction pursuant to this section, and all other
costs of the lease transaction related to the defeasance or other
retirement of any bonds, including the cost of nationally recognized
bond counsel, shall be paid from the proceeds of that lease.
   (2) The Department of General Services shall be reimbursed for any
reasonable costs or expenses incurred in conducting a transaction
pursuant to this section.
   (3) Notwithstanding subdivision (g) of Section 11011, the
Department of General Services shall deposit into the General Fund
the net proceeds of a lease entered into pursuant to this section,
after deducting the amount of the reimbursement of costs incurred
pursuant to this section or the reimbursement of adjustments to the
General Fund loan made pursuant to Section 8 of Chapter 20 of the
2009-10 Fourth Extraordinary Session from the lease.
   (d) The Department of General Services shall transmit a report to
each house of the Legislature on or before June 30, 2011, and on or
before June 30 each year thereafter, listing every new lease that
exceeds a period of five years entered into under the authority of
this section and the following information regarding each listed
lease:
   (1) Lease payments.
   (2) Length of the lease.
   (3) Identification of the leasing parties.
   (4) Identification of the leased property.
   (5) Any other information the Director of General Services
determines should be included in the report to adequately describe
the material provisions of the lease.



11011.5.  (a) When no state or other public entity seeks to obtain
title to specific surplus state-owned real property, a state agency
authorized to sell that property, except property acquired for state
highway purposes, may, with the approval of the Department of General
Services, employ a licensed real estate broker for a negotiated
commission not to exceed reasonable and customary brokerage
commissions applicable to similar privately owned properties in the
area in connection with that sale and pay the amount of commission
earned by the broker. The commission shall be paid only out of the
proceeds of the sale before the proceeds are remitted to the State
Treasury. The Director of General Services shall only employ the
services of a broker when the director determines that the employment
of a broker to sell the property would result in a cost savings to
the state. Any state properties sold through the services of a broker
shall be reported, along with a comparison of the estimated cost
savings obtained through the use of a broker, in the annual surplus
property report to the Legislature required pursuant to Section
11011.
   (b) This section shall be inoperative for the period commencing
with the effective date of the act that added this subdivision, until
July 1, 2005.



11011.7.  All real property acquired for park and recreation
purposes by the state which was formerly part of Camp Pendleton shall
be used solely for park and recreation purposes and no part thereof
shall be declared surplus or disposed of.




11011.11.  (a) The Legislature finds and declares as follows:
   (1) There is no complete inventory of all state real property
holdings containing information on present use, characteristics of
the holding, or its value.
   (2) Both the Auditor General and the California Commission on
State Government Organization and Economy have found that there is
state-owned real property which is presently unused and should be
declared surplus, and that there is little or no internal or external
review to determine if lands could be declared surplus.
   (3) The Auditor General, in a report entitled "California Could
Earn Millions of Dollars from Better Management of its Excess Land,"
also found that the state is losing money by retaining property which
is not being used. This deprives the General Fund of revenues which
could be generated by the sale or transfer of surplus land.
   (b) It is the intent of the Legislature to improve the state's
management of its real property holdings by delegating to the
Department of General Services the responsibility for maintaining a
central inventory of the state's real property holdings.
   (c) It is also the intent of the Legislature that the staff of the
Office of Space and Real Estate Services of the Department of
General Services be utilized for the implementation of Section
11011.15.

California State University. "Agency" does not mean the Legislature,
the University of California, the State Lands Commission, or the
Department of Transportation.
   (b) "Fully utilized" means that 100 percent of the property is
being appropriately utilized by a program of an agency every business
day of the year.

utilized by a program of an agency.
   (2) The property is not used every business day of the year by an
agency.
   (3) The property is used by other nonstate governmental entities
or private parties.
   (d) "Excess land" means property that is no longer needed for
either an existing or ongoing state program or a function of an
agency.



11011.14.  (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the
Director of General Services shall transfer title of state Building
101, the former Lake Norconian Club Hotel in Norco and previously
operated by the Department of Corrections as a minimum security
facility, to the City of Norco.
   (b) The transfer shall be completed at no cost to the City of
Norco, other than costs incurred related to the actual transfer,

City of Norco.
   (c) As a condition of the transfer, the City of Norco shall do
both of the following:

cost if the Department of Corrections, in consultation with the
Department of General Services, determines that the City of Norco has
not complied with its final plan for the use of state Building 101.
   (f) In maintaining state Building 101, the City of Norco shall
agree to comply with all statutes and regulations pertaining to
maintenance and ownership of structures registered with the National
Register of Historic Places and the California Register of Historic
Resources.



11011.15.  (a) The Department of General Services shall maintain a

the agency shall provide detailed information regarding the need to
continue ownership or management of the property. In the case of land

advertise and award contracts for services related to the disposition
of real property, in accordance with this section.
   (b) For purposes of this section, the following definitions shall
apply:
   (1) "Qualified firm" means an individual, firm, or combination of
firms and individuals having appropriate expertise and knowledge
related to due diligence investigations, land use planning, real
estate development, entitlement, appraisals, real estate economics
and valuation, marketing, public relations, auctioning, and other
related matters involved in the disposal, reuse, leasing, and sale of
real property.
   (2) "Prequalified list" means a list of firms that possess the
qualifications established by the department to perform specific
types of services needed by the department pursuant to this section.
   (c) The department may establish prequalified lists in accordance
with the following process:
   (1) For each type of work for which the department elects to use
this process for the advertising and awarding of contracts, the
department may request statements of qualifications from interested
firms. The request for statements of qualifications shall be
announced statewide through the State Contracts Register and any
applicable publications of appropriate professional societies. Each
announcement shall describe the general scope of services to be
provided within each category for contracts for services that the
department anticipates may be awarded during the period covered by
the announcement.
   (2) The department shall evaluate the statements of
qualifications, and create a list of the most qualified firms that
meet the criteria established and published by the department.
Discussions may be held regarding each firm's qualifications with all
listed firms. The department shall maintain lists of prequalified
firms, which shall be updated at least every two years from the date
the lists are established to allow for additional firms to be added.
The department may, at its discretion, add qualified firms more
frequently than every two years.
   (3) As specific real properties are identified by the department
as being eligible for contracting during the time period that the
prequalified lists are valid, the department shall contact at least
three qualified firms in each category of services desired by the
department for the real property disposition, to determine if those
qualified firms have sufficient staff and are available for
performance of a specific project. If the qualified firm that is
contacted is not available, the department shall continue to contact
qualified firms on the prequalified list, in the order the firms
appear on the list, until at least three available qualified firms
are identified. If a category on the prequalified list has less than
three qualified firms, the department may utilize other firms on the
prequalified list that are included in a different category on the
list, if those firms are able to provide the desired services.
   (4) Once the department has identified interested firms from the
prequalified list, it shall solicit cost proposals from those
prequalified firms. The department shall negotiate a contract for the
services with the best qualified firm at compensation the department
deems fair and reasonable to the state.
   (5) If the department is unable to negotiate a satisfactory
contract with the identified qualified firm, negotiations with that
qualified firm shall be terminated and negotiations shall be
undertaken with the next qualified firm on the prequalified list that
is available to perform the contract. If a satisfactory contract
cannot be negotiated with the second identified qualified firm,
negotiations may be terminated and the negotiation process shall be
continued with the remaining qualified firms. If the department is
unable to negotiate a satisfactory contract with a qualified firm on
three separate occasions, the department may remove that qualified
firm from the prequalified list.
   (d) Contracts for services that the department elects to advertise
and award in accordance with this section are not subject to Article
4 (commencing with Section 10335) of Chapter 2 of Part 2 of Division
2 of the Public Contract Code and shall not include services defined
in Chapter 10 (commencing with Section 4525) of Division 5 of Title

delivery of services, not to exceed 25 percent of the annual
allocation to be made pursuant to the contract and those laws during
