(a)
Notwithstanding Article 8 (commencing with Section 54220) of Chapter 5 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the Government Code, the governing board of a school district complying with Section 101238.2 of Title 22 of the California
Code of Regulations and seeking to sell or lease real property it deems to be surplus property and for which a charter school has not accepted an offer to purchase or lease pursuant to Section 17457.5, may first offer that property for sale or lease to a contracting agency, as defined in Section 8208, pursuant to the following conditions:
(1)
The real property sold or leased shall be used by the contracting
agency, or by
a successor in interest to the contracting agency, exclusively for the delivery of child care and development services, as defined in Section 8208, for a period of not less than five years from the date upon which the real property is made available to that agency, or successor in interest, pursuant to the sale, or, in the event of a lease, until the real property is returned to the possession of the school district, whichever occurs earlier.
(2)
In the event that the contracting agency, or any successor in interest, fails to comply with the condition set forth in paragraph (1), that agency, or successor in interest, that purchased the real property, is required immediately to offer that real property for sale pursuant to this article and Article 5 (commencing with Section 17485) and to sell the
property pursuant to those provisions. The agency, or its successor in interest, shall comply, in that regard, with all requirements under those provisions that would otherwise apply to a school district, except that a sale price computed under subdivision (a) of Section 17491 shall be based upon the cost of acquisition incurred by the school district that sold the property pursuant to this subdivision, rather than that incurred by the contracting agency or its successor in interest. In the event, alternatively, of a lease of real property pursuant to this subdivision, the failure by the contracting agency, or any successor in interest, to comply with paragraph (1) shall constitute a breach of the lease, entitling the school district to immediate possession of the real property, in addition to any damages to which the school district may be entitled under the lease agreement.
(3)
The school district, and each of the entities authorized to receive offers of sale pursuant to this article or Article 5 (commencing with Section 17485), has standing to enforce the conditions set forth in this subdivision, and shall be entitled to the payment of reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred as a prevailing party in any action or proceeding brought to enforce any of those conditions.
(b)
No sale or lease of the real property of a school district, as authorized under subdivision (a), may occur until the school district advisory committee has held hearings pursuant to subdivision (c) of Section 17390.
(c)
This section
is in addition to, and shall not limit the requirements of, Article 5 (commencing with Section 17485), but this section may be
used
with regard to property that the governing board of a school district may retain under Section 17490.
