The conservancy may not exercise the power of eminent domain. The conservancy may request the State Public Works Board to exercise the power of eminent domain on behalf of the conservancy pursuant to the Property Acquisition Law (Part 11 (commencing with Section 15850) of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code). The conservancy may initiate a request only with respect to uninhabited real property within the territory of the conservancy containing mountainous lands and after providing at least 60 days’ notice of its intention to request acquisition by eminent domain. The notice shall be sent either to the city in which the real property is situated; the county if the real property is situated in an unincorporated area; or the Tribal Council of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians if the real property is situated within the trust lands of the Agua Caliente Indian Reservation. The State Public Works Board shall not, acquire any real property by eminent domain in response to a request of the conservancy if either of the following is the case: (a) No part of the real property is mountainous land. (b) The acquisition is objected to by the city in which the real property is situated; by the county if the real property is situated in an unincorporated area; or by the Tribal Council of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians if the real property is situated within the trust lands of the Agua Caliente Indian Reservation. To be effective, the objection shall be made by a resolution of the city council, the county board of supervisors, or the Tribal Council of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, as the case may be, adopted within 60 days from the date of receipt of notice from the conservancy. The city, the county, or the tribal council, as the case may be, may at any subsequent time rescind its objection.
