Background: In an effort to make surplus state property available for emergency housing and feeding programs Senator Garamendi has introduced SB 1608 which would authorize the lease of such property for emergency housing and feeding programs. The leases would be for $1. 60 per month for periods of not to exceed five years. At the end of each five -year period the lease would have to be reviewed to assure compliance with the original purpose of the agreement. The lease could then be renewed for an additional five year period 'if appropriate. To the extent that the lease of surplus state property pursuant to SB 1608 would assist public and private non-profit agencies. to make additional emergency shelters and emergency feeding programs available to the homeless the bill assists the County in meeting the needs of the homeless and therefore deserves the support of the Board of Supervisors. It is therefore recommended that the Board support SB 1608. SB 1608 has passed the Senate by a vote of 35:0 and is now pending a hearing in the Assembly Committee on Governmental Efficiency and Consumer Protection.
