(a) If the territory of a third class city is in a
part of the territory of a consolidated school corporation, the third class
city may lease to the consolidated school corporation a building and the
property the building is on that is owned by the city for school purposes
for a period of at least five (5) consecutive years.
(b) The common council of the city shall authorize a lease under
subsection (a) and the authorization may be made:
(1) without appraisement;
(2) without compensation; or
(3) upon terms agreed upon.
(c) The possession and use of a specified part of property that a city
leases under this section may be reserved by the city for city use. A
lease made under this section shall be in the form of a deed or other
written instrument that may be recorded. The grant must state that if
the property is no longer needed for school purposes, the property
reverts back to the city. A consolidated school corporation acting
through its board of school trustees may accept a lease:
(1) without appraisement;
(2) without compensation; or
(3) upon agreed upon terms;
by its board of school trustees.
(d) This section, being necessary and intended to remedy
deficiencies in laws existing on June 30, 1955, relating to powers of
certain municipal corporations and of certain school corporations, does
not repeal the provisions of those laws governing corporations but
supplements and clarifies those laws, and to that end shall be liberally
construed.
