in any instance in which such article is applicable.
(b) Second, the property shall be offered for sale or lease with
an option to purchase, at fair market value;
(1) In writing, to the Director of General Services, the Regents
of the University of California, the Trustees of the California State
University, the county and city in which the property is situated,
and to any public housing authority in the county in which the

(2) By public notice to any public district, public authority,

Title 1 of the Corporations Code then in effect or organized for
charitable purposes on or after January 1, 1980, under Part 2
(commencing with Section 5110) of Division 2 of Title 1 of the
Corporations Code. Public notice shall consist of at least publishing
its intention to dispose of the real property in a newspaper of
general circulation within the district, or if there is no such
newspaper, then in any newspaper of general circulation that is
regularly circulated in the district. The notice shall specify that
the property is being made available to all public districts, public
authorities, public agencies, and other political subdivisions or
public corporations in this state, and to other nonprofit charitable
or nonprofit public benefit corporations.
Publication of notice pursuant to this section shall be once each

later than the date of the second published notice.
The entity desiring to purchase or lease the property shall,
within 60 days after the third publication of notice, notify the
community college district of its intent to purchase or lease the
property. If the entity desiring to purchase or lease the property
and the district are unable to arrive at a mutually satisfactory
price or lease payment during the 60-day period, the property may be
disposed of as otherwise provided in this section. In the event the
district receives offers from more than one entity pursuant to this
subdivision, the school district governing board may, in its
discretion, determine which of the offers to accept.
(c) Third, the property may be disposed of in any other manner
authorized by law.
