Section 11011.11
Status: in_force

(a) The Legislature finds and declares as follows:

(1) There is no complete inventory of all state real property holdings containing information on present use, characteristics of the holding, or its value.

(2) Both the Auditor General and the California Commission on State Government Organization and Economy have found that there is state-owned real property which is presently unused and should be declared surplus, and that there is little or no internal or external review to determine if lands could be declared surplus.

(3) The Auditor General, in a report entitled “California Could Earn Millions of Dollars from Better Management of its Excess Land,” also found that the state is losing money by retaining property which is not being used. This deprives the General Fund of revenues which could be generated by the sale or transfer of surplus land.

(b) It is the intent of the Legislature to improve the state’s management of its real property holdings by delegating to the Department of General Services the responsibility for maintaining a central inventory of the state’s real property holdings.

(c) It is also the intent of the Legislature that the staff of the Office of Space and Real Estate Services of the Department of General Services be utilized for the implementation of Section 11011.15.

Status: in_force

The Legislature hereby declares that there is further need to encourage the adoption of new or improved educational ideas, practices, and techniques in solving critical educational problems in preschool, elementary, and secondary schools throughout the state. In recognition of the need for the planning and developing of new programs involving a wide range of new approaches designed to improve the quality of education available in this state, this chapter is expressly enacted to foster innovation and create change in education, based on research and proven need. It is the purpose of this chapter to bring purposeful change and experimentation to schools throughout the state, through the use of all available resources of the state.

The Legislature further finds that there are in existence a large number of permanent commissions, committees, and councils, some of which have overlapping duties and functions, and some of which have been perpetuated beyond the original need or purpose for which created. In order to provide a more economical, efficient, and logical structure to educational policymaking, it is the intent of the Legislature to create three levels of educational advisory bodies: educational policy advisory commissions, educational advisory committees, and educational task forces.
