  • Board Vote on Ballot Measure

    On August 7, 2018, the Board of Trustees voted to place a prudent and community-responsive $720 million general obligation bond -- Measure BB -- on the November 2018 voter ballot. If approved by the voters, these funds will go a long way in meeting our estimated $1.5 billion dollars of identified facilities needs.
