81530. The governing board of a community college district may do all of the following:

(a) Lease buildings and other facilities, such as administrative offices, warehouses, athletic facilities, outdoor assembly facilities, auditoriums, quarters for adult education, transportation facilities, and communication facilities, for a period of not to exceed 12 years.

(b) Lease property from the federal government, the state, or any county, city and county, city, or district for the purpose of constructing school buildings and facilities thereon.

(c) Except as otherwise provided, any building leased for a total time in excess of three years, or under a lease-purchase agreement, shall be deemed the construction or alteration of a school building, as those terms are used in Article 7 (commencing with Section 81130). A building or facility used by a community college district under a lease or a lease-purchase agreement into which neither students nor teachers are required to enter and which would be excluded from the meaning of “school building” in Section 81160 shall not be considered to be a “school building” within the meaning of Section 81130.5.

(Amended by Stats. 1995, Ch. 758, Sec. 118. Effective January 1, 1996.)
