Project Timeline & Development Process

When would the proposed bond work projects start? How long would it take to complete the proposed projects?

If the bond measure is passed by voters, the district would start the process of hiring a contractor to work with the district’s architect to start the design and planning phase. The district would work with the contractors and architects to create a project timeline projecting when projects would start and be completed.

The proposed projects were developed with input from district staff, students, families, and community members as part of the District’s facilities planning process.
