TO- BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FROM: Phil Batchelor Contra
County Administrator
Costa
DATE: April 16, 1987 COu,�}�/
SUBJECT:
County
Legislation: Assembly Bill 1493 .(Peace)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(_S) & BACMROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION•
Adopt a position in support of AB 1493 by Assemblyman Peace which
would allow the Board of Supervisors, by a 4/5 vote, to waive the
public bidding requirements when the County sells or leases
County property and immediately repurchases or leases back the
same property as part of the same transaction.
BACKGROUND:
Existing provisions of the Government Code provide extensive
notice and hearing provision and public bidding procedures which
must be followed whenever the Board of Supervisors decides to
sell or lease County-owned property. However, when the sale or
lease involves a sale or lease to the County' s Public Facilities
Corporation who, in turn, immediately sells or leases the
property back to the County, the notice, hearing and public bid
procedures are a meaningless waste of time because there will
only be one bid.
Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe have drafted legislation which
Assemblyman Steve Peace has introduced (AB 1493 ) which allows the
Board of Supervisors to avoid all these unnecessary and wasteful
procedures when the transaction involves the sale or lease of
property and the immediate repurchase or lease back of the same
property, as typically occurs with the Public Facilities
Corporation. AB 1493 will save the County considerable time and
money in this type of limited transaction without impairing the
right of the public to bid on the sale or lease of County
property when the sale or lease is really intended to dispose of
County property.
In view of the efficiencies which will be achieved by the passage
of AB 1493, this office .recommends that the Board of Supervisors
support AB 1493 .
