The Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee is pleased to present its 2012-2013 Annual Report on the District's two general obligation bond programs.
In 2004, voters in the San José • Evergreen Community College District approved a $185M general obligation bond initiative, Measure G-2004. In November of 2010, the voters again demonstrated their confidence in the District and passed Measure G-2010, a $268M general obligation bond initiative. These bond measures, established under Proposition 39, have the common goal of improving and equipping the teaching environments to better serve our students' needs. The Committee and the District wish to thank the community for their continued support of our students.
The Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee has the responsibility of providing oversight on both Measures G-2004 and G-2010. The principal duties of the Committee are to ensure that the bond proceeds have been expended for the purposes set forth in the ballot language for each bond, report the progress annually to the public and provide a compliance statement. The San José • Evergreen Community College District's Board of Trustees is responsible for monitoring the project list, the priority of projects and approval of budgets/spending levels of individual projects.
The committee is reporting the progress made during this fiscal year on both bond programs. Measure G-2004 has seen progress with the Joint Use 21st Century Post-Secondary Education Center in Milpitas, technology infrastructure upgrades, and planning activities. Measure G-2010 continued its planning work for the development of South Campus at Evergreen Valley College, and completed a major upgrade to the site’s electrical grid that provides power to the entire campus. San José City College accomplished many small capital outlay and renovation projects and planning and assessment activities for future projects. San José City College completed an Athletic Fields – Synthetic Turf Replacement project that provided new synthetic turf at the football field, revitalized the track surface and included several other improvements to the track and field facility. Technology infrastructure planning and upgrades were done throughout the District. The District also purchased a building located in downtown San Jose.
The Committee wishes to report that, to the best of its knowledge, the San José / Evergreen Community College District is in full compliance with the responsibilities as described in Article XIIIA, Section 1 (b)(3) of the California State Constitution, which address bonded indebtedness incurred by a community college district. We encourage the community to visit the Measure G web site for additional information about the projects and expenditures, as well as our planned meeting dates and times for the coming year.
Respectfully submitted,
Joseph Becker,
Committee Chair
