LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 703, as introduced, Archuleta. State lands: public officers or bodies: authority.

Existing law vests with the State Lands Commission administration and control of certain public lands. Existing law further provides that whenever permissive authority or discretion is vested in any public officer or body under specified laws governing state lands, that authority is subject to the condition that it be exercised in the best interests of the state.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes in that provision relating to the authority vested in a public officer or body.
