What is the best way for me to get up to date information about all construction going on at PCC?
Information about construction on both campuses can be found on the bond website at http://bondprogram.lbcc.edu/
Why do you have money to build and yet not enough money to add more classes?
Construction costs are paid with local property taxes from bond measures which passed in 2002 and 2008. By law, proceeds from the bond can only be used for capital projects which include: construction, modernization, rehabilitation, or replacement of college facilities, including the furnishings and equipping of college facilities. The law does not allow these funds to be used for operating expenses like classes or other services.
Will the shuttle be running to and from PCC? Where will the shuttle stop be located with all this construction?
Yes, the Viking Voyager will continue to shuttle between LAC and PCC during the Fall 2010 and Spring 2011 semesters. At PCC, the shuttle will stop in front of the GG building and at LAC, the shuttle will stop at Veterans Stadium and in-between Parking Lots H and I.
