25539.6. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the board of supervisors of a county of the 16th class may lease, for a term of one year or more and without competitive bidding, county-owned residential dwellings having an estimated monthly rental of not exceeding seven hundred dollars ($700), which the board of supervisors determines not to be necessary for public use. If a lease is entered into without competitive bidding, the actual monthly rental in the executed lease shall not exceed eight hundred dollars ($800), and the lease shall be renewable by the lessee for at least one additional term.
(b) The Legislature finds that unique and special circumstances exist in Santa Barbara County for which a general statute cannot be made applicable. In Santa Barbara County, dwellings are located on county parcels which are used to provide public services.
The Legislature further finds and declares that the dwellings were once used for employee housing. The need for employee housing in such dwellings has ceased, while the parcels on which they are located are still needed for public service. Therefore, the Legislature finds and declares that conditions are such that a lot split or subdivision of the dwelling from the parcels is impractical.
