§ 100510 Bond Issuance And Administration

This law says that the special bonds for higher‑education building projects must follow the State General Obligation Bond Law, and the money from those bonds can be used to build or improve campuses for UC, CSU, and community colleges.

Key Takeaways

  • •All bonds under this chapter follow the State General Obligation Bond Law (except one specific section).
  • •Each state agency that gets money from the 1998 Higher Education Capital Outlay Bond Fund acts as the “board” for the projects.
  • •Bond money can be used for building, renovating, buying land, and equipping facilities for UC, CSU, and community colleges, and equipment must last at least 10 years.

Example

A community college wants to build a new science lab. The state issues bonds under this chapter, and the college uses the bond money to buy the land, construct the building, and buy lab equipment that will last at least 10 years.

Because the bonds are treated just like any other state general‑obligation bond, the college can spend the proceeds on construction, site purchase, and equipment for the new lab.
