Off-highway vehicular recreation: Carnegie State Vehicular Recreation Area: Alameda-Tesla Expansion Area.

Existing law, the Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Recreation Act of 2003, states it is the intent of the Legislature that the Department of Parks and Recreation should support both motorized recreation and motorized off-highway access to nonmotorized recreation. Existing law establishes the Off-Highway Vehicle Trust Fund and requires the revenues in the fund to be available, upon appropriation, for specified purposes, including the planning, acquisition, development, mitigation, construction, maintenance, administration, operation, restoration, and conservation of lands in state vehicular recreation areas and certain other areas. This bill would require the department to preserve, in perpetuity, land known as the "Alameda-Tesla Expansion Area," which is currently part of the Carnegie State Vehicular Recreation Area, for conservation purposes, including for nonmotorized public recreation, as provided. The bill would require the department to work with other entities to have $9,000,000 appropriated, transferred, or donated to the Off-Highway Vehicle Trust Fund by January 1, 2025.
