§ 103283 Transit Facility Leasing Authority

This law lets the district rent out its transit buildings or parts of them to anyone, and it can also allow the renter to rent part of it to someone else, as long as the district thinks it’s good for the public.

Key Takeaways

  • •The district can lease or contract for any part of its transit facilities.
  • •It can let the main renter sublease part of the space to another party.
  • •The district decides the terms and must think the arrangement helps the public.
  • •An “operator” can be any public agency or any person.

Example

The district rents a bus garage to a private bus company, and that company then rents a small portion of the garage to a local shuttle service.

Because the law says the district can lease its facilities and allow subleases, the district can make the first lease and the bus company can make the second lease, as long as the district approves the terms.
