Existing law authorizes the Judicial Council to dispose of surplus court facilities pursuant to a specified process that requires, among other things, the Judicial Council to consult with the county where the court facility is located, offer the facility to the county at a fair market value before offering it to another state or local government agency, and deposit the funds received from a sale into the State Court Facilities Construction Fund. The California Constitution requires the proceeds from the sale of surplus state property to be deposited into the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties, a continuously appropriated fund. This bill would, notwithstanding any other law, specifically authorize the Judicial Council to sell various properties, including, among others, the Gordon D. Schaber Sacramento County Courthouse, if the sale complies with certain requirements. The bill would require the net proceeds from the sale of the courthouse to be deposited into the State Court Facilities Construction Fund. The bill would state that the disposition of this property is not a sale or other disposition of surplus state property within the meaning of the California Constitution. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
