Fiscal Note 
Potential future biennium revenue increase - General Fund 
Extending the ground lease term of the property at the Long Creek Youth Development Center will increase future 
General Fund revenue. It is unknown what the terms for extending this lease to 90 years will be. The revenue stream 
can not be determined at this time. Requiring the lessee to either redevelop or demolish a building at the site may 
lower the value of the lease agreement.
