Summary
Under existing law, various higher education facilities bond acts authorize the sale of bonds for the purpose of funding the construction of facilities for the University of California, the California State University, the California Community Colleges, the Hastings College of the Law, and the California Maritime Academy. This bill would enact the Higher Education Facilities Bond Act of 2010, to become operative only if approved by the voters at the November 2, 2010, statewide general election, and would provide for its submission to the voters at that election. The bond act, if approved by the voters, would provide for the issuance of state general obligation bonds in a total amount of $8,630,000,000, to provide aid to the California Community Colleges, the University of California, the Hastings College of the Law, and the California State University to construct and modernize education facilities.
