The Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee is pleased to present its 2018-2019 Annual Report on the District's two general obligation bond programs. In November of 2010, the voters demonstrated their confidence in the District and passed Measure G-2010, a $268M general obligation bond initiative. In November 2016, the voters again supported the District by passing Measure X, a $748M 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 Measure G-2010 and Measure X bond programs have many accomplishments to report for the year ended June 30, 2019.
To highlight a few, San José City College (SJCC) completed the programming of its new Career Education Complex which will house classrooms, labs, instructional support spaces, offices and shared spaces to support student life. SJCC’s Physical Security project is well under way and the design of the new Maintenance and Operations and Emergency Operations Center was completed.
Evergreen Valley College (EVC) completed the extensive renovation of the cafeteria and student activity space in the Gullo Building. The design for the renovation of the remainder of the Gullo remodel was also completed and construction work on the project began. Additionally, EVC selected the architectural firm for the programming of its new Student Services Center.
