Surprise! Colorado’s Leasing Land From Itself

For the past 40 years, the state of Colorado has been leasing the land where Transportation Technology Center Inc. operates its test track east of Pueblo — from itself, The Pueblo Chieftain reports. A budget line-item in the 2010-11 Long Bill and corresponding memorandum show that one state department — the Colorado Land Board — leases the 33,493 acre test-track site to another, the Department of Personnel and Administration, at an annual cost of $120,000 to the state general fund. In turn, the state subleases the land to the Federal Railroad Commission at no charge.
