State Land Use Enacted Legislation

Bill # State Year Party Topic

AB 1180

CA 2021 R Publicly-owned

Provided by Furman

Summary

  • Expands the definition of exempt surplus land to include land that a local agency is transferring to a federally recognized California Indian tribe. Under existing law, local agencies must follow prescribed requirements when disposing of surplus land, but certain transfers are categorized as “exempt surplus land” and are not subject to these requirements.
  • Existing exemptions include transfers to other local, state, or federal agencies for the agency’s use. This bill adds transfers to federally recognized California Indian tribes to the list of exempt surplus land disposals, allowing local agencies to transfer land to tribes without following the standard surplus land disposal process.
