AB 2103 - Department of Parks and Recreation: land acquisition (Pellerin) | Cal Parks

Our Position

Support

Would exempt land acquired for Big Basin Redwoods State Park, Año Nuevo State Natural Reserve, and Butaño State Park from the requirement that all state park acquisitions be first acquired by the State Public Works Board.

Position Statement

There is a great deal of pent up demand for acqusition in state parks, and while this bill does not break through that logjam, it does create a small exemption to streamline acquisitions for key parks in the Santa Cruz Mountains, creating a positive outcome for parks in the region.
