Data notes
The final version of the law, as each chamber passed it. A chamber that passed it by voice vote or unanimous consent has no count. “Method not stated” means the record does not say how the chamber voted. Where the record has a member-by-member vote, the “Who voted for it” section shows who voted yea.
Summary
The Congressional Research Service’s plain-language summary of what the law does.
Directs the Secretary of Agriculture to convey without consideration (rather than hold available for sale at fair market price as provided under current law) specified lands in Coconino County, Arizona, to the city of Flagstaff, Arizona, under special use permit. Retains a right of reversion to the United States if such lands are used for other than park and open space purposes.
