A bill to require the Secretary of Agriculture to convey the Pleasant Valley Ranger District Administrative Site to Gila County, Arizona.
Summary
What This Bill Does
The bill directs the Secretary of Agriculture to convey the Pleasant Valley Ranger District Administrative Site to Gila County, Arizona. It defines the county, map, and site, then sets the mechanics for transferring the federal administrative property so the county can use or manage it for local purposes.
Who Benefits and How
Gila County benefits because it can acquire the Pleasant Valley administrative site for local government or community use. Pleasant Valley residents benefit if the county reuses the property for services, infrastructure, or economic activity. County property managers benefit from statutory authority to receive the site rather than negotiating uncertain disposal authority. Local businesses benefit indirectly if redevelopment or county operations increase activity around the site.
Who Bears the Burden and How
The Agriculture Secretary and Forest Service must complete the conveyance. Federal property managers must handle maps, legal descriptions, valuation, and transfer documents. Federal taxpayers lose federal ownership of the administrative site, subject to any payment terms in the bill. Gila County must take on ownership, maintenance, and redevelopment responsibilities after transfer.
