When the state has land or buildings it no longer needs, it can sell this “surplus property.” The money usually goes into the state’s General Fund and can pay for any state program.
Direct all money from selling state property towards paying off Prop 57 bonds. These bonds were approved by voters in March 2004 to pay for past state deficits. Once the Prop 57 bonds are paid off, sales of state property would go into the General Fund.
Effect on government spending: |
Paying the bonds off sooner could save millions of dollars by lowering interest.
