Summary

The bill makes it mandatory for any person, agency, or local government to obtain a lease from the state—through the Secretary of State—before using public trust tidelands. It treats gaming activities as a separate category from other commercial uses and puts lease authority in the Secretary of State’s hands. The goal is to give the state clearer control and to capture revenue from tideland use.
