§ 100120 Higher Education Construction Funding

This law lets a special state committee borrow money (create debt) to pay for building, fixing, and equipping campuses of the University of California, California State University, community colleges, and the college named in § 92200.

Key Takeaways

  • •The committee may create debt for the state to fund higher‑education construction projects.
  • •Funding can cover building construction, site acquisition, equipment, and pre‑construction costs.
  • •The law adds the college from § 92200 without changing earlier bond authorizations.

Example

A community college wants to build a new library. The Higher Education Facilities Finance Committee issues bonds to raise money, and the funds are used to pay for the construction, the bookshelves, and the design plans.

The committee can create the debt, and the money can be used for the library’s construction, equipment, and pre‑construction planning, just as the law allows.
