Fiscal Detail and Notes
This bill provides legislative approval of an existing lease of certain lands in Dennistown Plantation. The lease was issued in 2016 to Christian Camps and generates annual revenue of less than $300. Approval is occurring now to avoid any potential conflict with certain constitutional requirements for real estate held by the State. Such approval will confirm the validity of the existing lease and there will be no impact on the Department of Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry.
