Do governors even have the power to do that? Public lands in my state can only go to sale through voter referendum. Even to lease requires referendum. A desperate governor has the power to make such decisions that takes generations to fix is unfathomable to me.
Chicago (and maybe other places) sold the rights to give parking tickets for the next 100 years to make their annual budget numbers look better. I think the company made back their investment in under 3 years.
