Overview

An emergency joint resolution that approves the sale of private real property in Phoenix, Arizona, to the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

History

The United States Constitution grants Congress the authority to enact exclusive legislation over places purchased by the consent of the Legislature of the State in which the purchased land is located so that forts, magazines, arsenals, dockyards and other needful buildings may be established (U.S. Constitution, Art. 1 Sec. 8).

State statute authorizes Arizona to permit the acquisition of any privately owned real property within Arizona, by the United States, upon the Governor's signing a joint resolution adopted by the Legislature to that end. Such resolution must recite the legal description of the land and the purposes to which the state consents that the property may be used (A.R.S. § 37-620.02).

Provisions

1. Consents to the sale of four parcels of land in Phoenix, Arizona to the United States for the VA's use.
