§ 81963 Community College Bond Payments

Key Takeaways

  • •Community colleges that borrow money (bonds) must create a special fund to pay it back.
  • •During construction, money from the construction fund is used to pay the interest on the loan.
  • •After construction, money from the college's regular income is used to pay back the loan and interest.

Example

A community college takes out a loan to build a new science building.

While the building is being built, the college uses money set aside for construction to pay the interest on the loan. Once the building is done, the college starts using money from its regular budget (like tuition and state funding) to pay back the loan and any remaining interest.
