HB 2014 permits cities and towns to exchange real property outside their boundaries. 
 
History
 
Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) § 9-401 allows a city or town to purchase, lease, or rent land lying outside its corporate limits for its purposes and uses. Statute also allows a city or town to sell and convey all or any part of its real or personal property, whether or not the property is devoted exclusively to public use (A.R.S. § 9-402).
 
Current law further allows an incorporated city or town to exchange a parcel of real property for any other parcel of real property within the incorporated city or town as long as the parcels of real property are of substantially equal value and meet the terms and conditions prescribed in the ordinance. An incorporated city may also sell a parcel of real property to another political subdivision without following the procedures specified in statutes regarding the sale of real property. Presently, a notice of intent to exchange or sell any property must be published in a newspaper of general circulation before the exchange or sale (A.R.S. § 9-407).
