Bill Summary

As introduced, enacts the "No Corporate Land Giveaways Act." - Amends TCA Title 3; Title 4; Title 8 and Title 12.

AI Summary

This bill, known as the "No Corporate Land Giveaways Act," requires the state's commissioner of general services and the chair of the state capitol commission to provide written notice at least 30 days before transferring ownership, a long-term lease, or exclusive control of state-owned real property to a private entity for private use or development without the state receiving payment. This notice must be sent to the chairs of the joint government operations committee of both the Senate and House of Representatives, as well as any state legislator representing a county where the property is located. Crucially, such a transfer cannot proceed unless the joint government operations committee approves it within 30 days of receiving the notice; if the committee takes no action, the transfer is automatically considered disapproved.
