Existing law authorizes the Department of General Services 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 of General Services.
This bill would authorize the Department of General Services to transfer, without charge, 2 parcels
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, to provide rental housing to low or moderate income very low, low-, and moderate-income employees, faculty, students, and families who attend or work at the University of California at Davis.
