MODERATE

This bill version was updated from the House Draft (HD3) to the Senate Draft (SD1) with significant formatting changes and metadata additions. The core legislative text remains substantially the same, maintaining requirements for the School Facilities Authority to consult with the Department of Education before transferring or leasing state lands. The primary differences are technical formatting, metadata fields, and minor text corrections rather than substantive policy changes.

Scope change

No substantive change to the bill's scope or applicability; the legislative intent and requirements remain consistent between versions.

TECHNICAL

Added metadata fields including bill number, author name, timestamps, and revision information in the Senate Draft version.

Minor text corrections in Section 1 and Section 2, including fixing bracketed text and correcting some character encoding issues.

Report title and description sections updated with different formatting and slightly revised language.

TIMELINE

Effective date changed from July 1, 3000 in the House Draft to 'upon approval' in the Senate Draft.
