Land use: natural resources: transfer of long-term management funds.

Abstract

(1) Existing law allows a state or local public agency to authorize a nonprofit organization to hold title to, and manage an interest in, real property that the state or local public agency requires a property owner to transfer to the agency to mitigate any adverse impact upon natural resources caused by permitting the development of a project or facility, provided the nonprofit organization meets certain requirements. This bill would authorize funds set aside for the long-term management of any lands or easements conveyed to a nonprofit organization pursuant to the above provisions to also be conveyed to the nonprofit organization, on and after July 1, 2010. The bill would also require the nonprofit organization to hold, manage, invest, and disburse the funds in furtherance of managing and stewarding the land or easement for which the funds were set aside. The bill would authorize the state or local agency to impose certain requirements on the nonprofit organization and impose on the state or local agency specified due diligence requirements. (2) Existing law also authorizes a state or local public agency that, in the development of its own project, is required to transfer an interest in real property to mitigate an adverse impact upon natural resources to transfer the interest to a nonprofit organization that meets the specified requirements. This bill would instead authorize a state or local public agency that, in the development of its own project, is required to protect an interest in real property to mitigate an adverse impact upon natural resources to transfer the interest to a nonprofit organization that meets the specified requirements or to provide funds to a nonprofit organization to acquire land or easements that satisfy the agency's mitigation obligations. The bill would prohibit retroactive application of its provisions to endowment funds held by the state in the Pooled Money Investment Account. (3) This bill would provide that these changes to existing law would remain in effect until January 1, 2014, after which the provisions of existing law would become operative.
