§ 5080.07

(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 11080 and 11081 of the Government Code, public notice to bidders shall be given of all proposed contracts authorizing the occupancy of property in the state park system for a period of more than two years, as follows:

(1) The department shall advertise the notice through appropriate public media to the extent that the department determines is sufficient to provide adequate coverage.

(2) The department shall publish an advertisement for bid at least once a week for two consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the county in which the concession is to operate and in a major daily newspaper in the closest metropolitan area.

(3) If the director determines that, in view of the type of concession involved, the public interest would be best served by the solicitation of bids from out-of-state bidders, he or she shall give such additional notice as he or she finds is best suited to attract bids from out-of-state bidders.

(b) The published notice shall state where bid forms may be obtained, the time and place for the receiving and opening of sealed bids, and shall describe, in general terms, the concession to be operated.
