Overview
-
Solana Beach School District passed a general obligation bond measure in November 2016. Measure JJ, a $105,000,000 bond, is funding for school construction and modernization across district schools. View the Full Bond Measure JJ Text here.
Based on input from parents, community members, teachers, and district staff, and the completion of a Facilities Needs Assessment, the District has developed a Long-Range Facilities Master Plan. Funds from issuance of Measure JJ bonds will be used to implement the Master Plan.Cost for repayment of these bonds will be approximately $272 per year for the average homeowner in the District. In addition, a statewide school bond on the November ballot was passed by voters. As a result, the District may be eligible for an additional $20 million in matching funds from the state.The District is committed to ensuring transparency in the use and expenditure of bond funds through the following:
- An Independent Citizen’s Oversight Committee will be formed
- The Board of Education and Citizen’s Oversight Committee will receive annual reports and audits.
- Bond revenue will not be used for teacher or administrator salaries.
- The term of the bonds will be limited to no more than 30 years.
- Capital Appreciation Bonds (CABs) will not be used.
- Fair and open competition for all construction projects will be promoted.
