Food & Agr. Code, § 4358

The commission shall follow the same procedures, insofar as appropriate, in leasing, or entering into agreements for the use of, the Del Mar Race Track as the Department of General Services follows in leasing or entering into agreements for other state real property. The commission shall, prior to awarding a lease of, or entering into an agreement for the use of, the Del Mar Race Track, consider all the factors concerning appropriate capital improvement of that racetrack, the financing of the racetrack, additional racing opportunities, and any use of new or additional properties or facilities, including, but not limited to, a grandstand, which factors shall be considered in the award of the lease or entering into the agreement. The commission shall also consult with any affected local governing bodies, prior to awarding the lease or entering into the agreement.
