    6         Section 26. (1) The Legislature ratifies and approves the
    7  actions of the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement
    8  Trust Fund regarding lease numbers 1447, 1971S, 3420, 3433, and
    9  3543, and lease numbers 3422 and 1935/1935-S as approved on
   10  January 23, 2013, subject to the terms and conditions
   11  established by the board of trustees as approved on January 23,
   12  2013.
   13         (2) The Legislature finds that the decision to authorize
   14  the use of board of trustees-owned uplands and the use of those
   15  lands as set forth in the leases is not contrary to the public
   16  interest; that it is in the public interest to waive the
   17  competitive bid process; that the leases are not standard
   18  agricultural leases; and that such leases should be amended on
   19  the terms and conditions as approved by the board of trustees.
   20         (3) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the
   21  Legislature finds that the lease amendments and extensions
   22  approved by the board of trustees are necessary for Everglades
   23  restoration purposes, are in the public interest, and provide
   24  the greatest combination of benefits to the public.

   34         of those lands as set forth in certain leases is not
   35         contrary to the public interest;
