    Conveys all the interests held by the City of Raleigh (Raleigh) in the Dorothea Dix property, conveyed to Raleigh by way of lease executed December 28, 2012, to the State of North Carolina (State). The property described in the lease will be allocated to the Department of Health and Human Services.

    Raleigh is released from any obligations under the lease and any funds paid by Raleigh to the State under that lease will be refunded. If Raleigh contests receiving just compensation for the taking, it can file for a special proceeding in the Superior Court of Wake County for a determination of just compensation within 60 days of the act becoming effective.

    The Department of Administration will lease a portion of the property for a public park. Raleigh will have the first right of refusal as a lessee. All revenues derived from the park lease will be held in a special fund to be appropriated for mental health purposes, consistent with the purposes of the original and underlying deeds.

    The Department of Administration and the Department of Health and Human Services will evaluate the recommended uses of the Dorothea Dix property, as identified in the 2007 State Government Facilities Master Plan, reporting their findings to the General Assembly no later than March 15, 2014.
