Bond Committee: Miscellaneous, 1995
Scope and Contents note
Voters approved a $42.8 million general obligation bond for Lane Community College in 1995. This gave the college money to build and remodel facilities for job preparation, employee training, and other instructional programs; to address health and safety issues; and to increase community access. Thanks to interest earnings and additional sources, funds were leveraged to $62 million. Additionally, work by college trades people saved the college about a half-million dollars. Building began off-campus in 1995, with the construction of a new learning center in Cottage Grove; this was followed by an addition to the Florence learning center, and, over the next four years, the construction of eight Community Learning Centers at district high schools. Work began on main campus in 1999.
Building and remodeling sponsored by the bond include Workforce Training Building, Welding Technology Building, Addition to Campus Services Building, Parking Lot Improvements, Child Care Center, Math-Science Addition, LTD Bus Station, Sewage Lagoon Upgrade, Student Services Building, Central Plant Upgrade, Health Tech., P.A.-P.E. ramp, Addition to Performing Arts, Center Building remodel, Library remodel, and temporary space for Archives have all been completed.
