The Legislature declares that there are communities in the State in which a considerable portion of the agricultural lands and improved commercial and business sites are real property as defined in this article owned by local agencies situate in distant parts of the State.

These conditions are accentuated by periods of inflation in respect to real property sales prices and rental rates, particularly in those areas in which a distant local agency owns and controls the greater part of the lands that are not owned by the State or the United States.
