FUNDING DISPARATIES
Why Bonds?
• Legislative Analyst Office states that as with K-12 facilities,
California Community College facilities primarily are financed
by state and local general obligation bonds.
• Like K-12 school districts, community college districts are
authorized to sell local general obligation bonds to finance
facility projects with the approval of 55 percent of voters in
the district.
• Therefore, California Community Colleges are expected to
periodically request facilities funds through a bond from local
voters and then to wisely manage those resources.
