Notwithstanding Section 14669, if the plan requested pursuant to Resolution Chapter 131 of the Statutes of 1991 has been completed, the Director of General Services may enter into a lease with an option to purchase, with an initial option purchase price that exceeds two million dollars ($2,000,000), for the purpose of providing office, warehouse, parking, and related facilities to consolidate the operations of the California Environmental Protection Agency. The director shall not exercise the option unless specifically authorized to do so by the Legislature
and unless the director has made a finding that the proposed facility and site conforms to the plan requested pursuant to Resolution Chapter 131 of the Statutes of 1991.
Except for a renewal of an existing lease to include an option to purchase, the director shall solicit written bids for any lease with an option to purchase in a newspaper of general circulation in the counties in which the project may be located. All bids received shall be publicly opened and the lease awarded to the lowest responsible bidder. If the director deems the acceptance of the lowest responsible bid is not in the best interest of the state, he or she may reject all bids.
