17059.  The Legislature finds and declares as follows:(a) In many areas of the state, overcrowding in the schools has created a need for new school facilities in neighborhoods where little or no vacant land exists. School districts are compelled, therefore, to acquire property that already has been developed with structures, then demolish these structures and construct classroom space.(b) With an estimated statewide need for school facilities within the next five years that exceeds fourteen billion dollars ($14,000,000,000), neither state nor local funds reasonably can be anticipated to meet this need.(c) In many of the areas having overcrowded schools, a significant supply exists of vacant space in structures meeting current building codes.(d) Use of this vacant space by schools can be a cost-effective means of providing classroom space for the students of California.(e) This chapter and Section 4-306 of Part 1 of Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations authorize the reconstruction of existing commercial buildings for school facility purposes.(f) No existing commercial building shall be considered for reconstruction for school facility classroom purposes unless it was designed and constructed according to the standards established in the 1976 Uniform Building Code or subsequent editions of that code.(Added by Stats. 1996, Ch. 277, Sec. 2.

For the purpose of calculating allowances pursuant to Article 3 (commencing with Section 17040), the State Allocation Board shall use the information used to determine the allowances for the school district at the time the district received approval of funds under this chapter to acquire property on which the school facilities will be constructed, or at the time an application is made pursuant to subdivision (a), whichever is earlier.(c) The State Allocation Board may approve, in whole or in part, an application submitted by a school district pursuant to this section in an amount the State Allocation Board may deem appropriate, not to exceed the amount applied for, subject to final approval of the joint venture agreement pursuant to Section 17063.(d) For purposes of this section, and the process referred to in subdivision (a), a school district joint venture request for proposals shall include, but not necessarily be limited to, all of the following:(1) A specific description of the school buildings or land, or both, to be constructed or utilized under the joint venture and a description of how the costs of the project have been determined.(2) The identification of the current educational uses of the school buildings or land, or both, and of the educational uses proposed under the joint venture.(3) The identification of the current noneducational uses of the proposed school buildings or land, or both, and of the noneducational uses proposed under the joint venture, and a specific assessment of the compatibility of those uses with any applicable general or specific governmental land use plan and with applicable zoning restrictions.(4) A description of the prospective economic benefits to be derived by the school district from the joint venture.(5) A description of the prospective educational benefits to be derived by the school district from the joint venture.(6) A request that each request for proposal response include a comprehensive description of the joint venture, including, but not limited to, a description of the intended means of financing the joint venture.(Added by Stats. 1996, Ch. 277, Sec. 2.

17062.  (a) Notwithstanding Sections 20111 and 20118.4 of the Public Contract Code, or any other law, upon approval of funding pursuant to Section 17061, a school district may utilize a request for qualifications and proposal process described in subdivision (a) of Section 17061 to select and enter into a joint venture agreement with a developer to construct school facilities. The agreement may utilize Section 17406.(b) The joint venture agreement shall include, but not be limited to, all of the following terms:(1) The cost of the project approved by the State Allocation Board pursuant to Section 17061 as the amount that the district will pay to the developer pursuant to the joint venture agreement upon completion of the project, if applicable.(2) A detailed description of the project, including, but not limited to, the school facilities and any other facilities that may be included in the project and any other information necessary to meet the requirements of this chapter.(3) The timeframe for completion of the project.(4) A requirement that there shall be no state liability if funds are not made available within the four-year period specified in subdivision (a) of Section 17063.(c) The joint venture agreement may also include a requirement that if the actual cost of constructing the school facility project designated in the agreement exceeds the amount set forth in that agreement, the developer shall be responsible for the additional expense.(d) The lien placed on a schoolsite pursuant to this chapter shall only attach to that portion of the project for which state funds are actually expended. In addition, the lien shall expressly recognize any subordinate property interest created by the joint venture, and the state lien shall not be foreclosed or otherwise used to terminate the property interest, or any subordinate financing liens incidental thereto, created by the joint venture. The document creating that lien on a schoolsite shall be written in a manner to clearly prohibit assumption of any state liability resulting from the lien.(e) Notwithstanding subdivision (d), the nondisturbance of subordinate property interests permitted in subdivision (d) shall not permit the foreclosure or other private taking of actual school facilities or property paid for with state funds in a manner that would restrict, terminate, or impair the school facilities portion of the joint venture or the school district’s use thereof.(Added by Stats. 1996, Ch. 277, Sec. 2.

The State Allocation Board shall act to approve or disapprove the complete agreement within 60 days following submission of the complete proposal to the State Allocation Board. The approval or disapproval relates to only the decision by the State Allocation Board to fund the school portion of the joint venture project and is not to be construed as an approval or disapproval of the terms and conditions of the joint venture agreement nor as authority for the school district to act as the agent of the State Allocation Board. The State Allocation Board is not made a party to the joint venture agreement and shall not incur liability under the joint venture agreement through its approval or disapproval of the agreement. The joint venture shall indemnify and hold harmless the State Allocation Board and its officers, agents, and employees from any loss or liability, including reasonable attorneys fees and costs, caused by the joint venture arising out of, or in relation to, any contract entered into by the joint venture in furtherance of the joint venture project. The date of approval by the State Allocation Board of the project shall be the date of funding eligibility for the project. The apportionment of funds for the eligible project shall be made at any point up to four years following the date of funding eligibility subject to the availability of funds for this purpose. If the state funds are not available within that four-year period, the school district may at its option remain in the funding cycle, subject to other provisions of this chapter, until the school district receives all of the funds it is eligible to receive pursuant to this article as of the date of funding eligibility. The district’s eligibility for reimbursement of authorized costs and the district’s position in the processing schedule for the reimbursement shall be established as the date of project approval by the State Allocation Board. The exact amount of the reimbursement shall be determined at the conclusion of the project and shall be based upon the actual subcontract trade bids and other costs allowable pursuant to Section 17019.3.(Added by Stats. 1996, Ch. 277, Sec. 2.
