To promote the safety of students, comprehensive community planning, and greater educational usefulness of state university sites, the Trustees of the California State University, before the board acquires title to property for any site, shall undertake the following action:
Immediately after receiving notice of the proposed acquisition of property which is within two miles, measured by air line, of that point on an airport boundary which is nearest the site, the Trustees of the California State University shall notify the Department of Aeronautics, in writing, of the proposed acquisition. The Department of Aeronautics shall make an investigation and report to the trustees within 25 days after receipt of the notice. If the Department of Aeronautics is no longer in operation, the trustees shall, in lieu of notifying the commission, notify the Federal Aviation Agency or any other appropriate agency, in writing, of the proposed acquisition for the purpose of obtaining from the authority or other agency any information or assistance it may desire to give.
The Trustees of the California State University shall investigate the proposed site and within 30 days after receipt of the notice shall submit to the board a written report and its recommendations concerning acquisition of the site. The board shall not acquire title to the property until the report of the trustees has been received. If the report does not favor the acquisition of the property for a state university site or an addition to a state university site, the board shall not acquire title to the property until 30 days after the trustees' report is received and until the trustees' report has been read at a public hearing duly called after 10 days' notice published once in a newspaper of general circulation within the county in which the property is located.
