Santa Rosa Junior College is considering its largest bond measure yet, aiming for up to $952 million to tackle a big maintenance backlog and upgrade campuses.
The Press Democrat reports this comes a decade after voters approved a previous bond that spurred major overhauls. While specific projects are to be determined, the overall need for deferred maintenance and program expansion is estimated at $1.75 billion.
For property owners, the largest bond option could cost about $60 per $100,000 in assessed property value.
College officials are surveying voters to gauge support for the measure, which aims to ensure SRJC remains a high-quality and affordable option for students.
