Tidelands: City of Huntington Beach: Huntington Harbor.

Existing law vests with the State Lands Commission control over certain state lands, including certain tidelands and submerged lands. This bill would grant and convey in trust to the City of Huntington Beach all of the rights, title, and interest of the state, held by the state by virtue of its sovereignty, acting by and through the commission, in specified real properties in Huntington Harbor in the County of Orange. The bill would require the City of Huntington Beach to submit to the commission for approval a trust lands use plan, as specified, thereby imposing a state-mandated local program. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for Huntington Harbor. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
