Cal. Public Resources Code - PRC 4. — ARTICLE 4. Old Sacramento State Historic Park [5081. - 5083.] | Public Resources Code - PRC — California

Cal. Public Resources Code - PRC § 5081. Section 5081.

The Legislature finds and declares all of the following: (a) The department has a proprietary and financial interest in revenue-generating commercial operations on state land, including the Old Sacramento State Historic Park. (b) Labor disputes may interfere with or disrupt hotel and hospitality services and negatively impact the department’s proprietary interests and its ability to attract travelers to the Old Sacramento State Historical Park. (c) Requiring that the entity responsible for developing a hotel and hospitality operations in the Old Sacramento State Historical Park, as well as any subcontractors or sublessees, be party to a labor peace agreement prohibiting strikes, picketing, and boycotts at the hotel is a well established means of protecting those proprietary interests.

Cal. Public Resources Code - PRC § 5082. Section 5082.

(a) For purposes of this section, the following definitions apply: (1) “Labor organization” means a labor organization as defined in Section 152(5) of Title 29 of the United States Code. (2) “Labor peace agreement” means an agreement with a labor organization that contains, at a minimum, provisions prohibiting the labor organization and its members from engaging in any picketing, work stoppage, boycott, or other economic interference with the hotel or food and beverage operations subject to the agreement. (b) The department shall include in any lease agreement, management agreement, or other agreement for the operation of a hotel on land owned or controlled by the state in the Old Sacramento State Historical Park a provision that requires the entity responsible for development of the hotel, and each sublessee or subcontractor employing the workforce performing hotel or food and beverage operations under the agreement, to enter into a labor peace agreement with each labor organization that represents, or seeks to represent, the workforce performing hotel or food and beverage operations under the agreement. (c) The department shall include in any request for proposals or similar solicitation for the development of a hotel on land owned or controlled by the state in the Old Sacramento State Historical Park a provision that provides, in substance, the following statement: Labor Peace. As a requirement for a full and adequate response to this request for proposal (RFP), as a condition precedent to the Department of Parks and Recreation (department) entering into the agreement described in this RFP, and as an ongoing material term of the agreement, the applicant and each sublessee or subcontractor shall provide written evidence that they have entered into a signed labor peace agreement with each labor organization that represents, or seeks to represent, the workforce performing hotel or food and beverage operations under the agreement. To comply with this requirement, each applicant must submit either: (1) a certification, in a form prescribed by the department, signed by the relevant labor organization and the applicant, attesting to a signed labor peace agreement, or (2) a signed certification, in a form prescribed by the department, attesting that no labor organization represents or has notified the applicant that it will seek to represent, the workforce performing hotel or food and beverage operations under the agreement. For these purposes, “labor organization” and “labor peace agreement” have the same meanings as defined in Section 5082 of the Public Resources Code.

This article shall apply only to a lease agreement, management agreement, or other agreement entered into on or after July 1, 2023, for the operation of a hotel on land owned or controlled by the state in the Old Sacramento State Historic Park.
