Facilities needs It has been more than 50 years since MiraCosta College passed a bond to repair or improve our facilities.

Upgrading Facilities Revised 2016 Educational and Facilities Master Plans completed. Year 2/5 Five Year facilities plan in progress – Limited Funds. Due to their age and need for improvements, over 50% of our facilities are rated to be in “poor condition” according to the facilities condition index 6

Upgrading Facilities Repairs and upgrades are needed to ensure students have access to the education, career training and technologies they need to go to four-year universities and compete for good jobs Due to high demand for courses and for skilled workers in our local economy, expanded facilities in STEM and Allied Health are needed 7

Potential Local Facilities Measure Improve facilities for veterans to provide job training, counseling and support services Upgrade career training facilities for science, healthcare, technology and skilled trades Update instructional technology for improved student learning in core subjects like math, science and technology 8

Potential Local Facilities Measure Improve access for students with disabilities Repair or replace leaky roofs, worn-out floors and restrooms, old rusty plumbing and faulty electrical systems Update science centers and labs to allow for state-of- the-art courses in biology, chemistry and physical science 9

Local Control and Accountability The facilities measure may generate approximately $455 million and cost approximately $16 per $100,000 of assessed, not market, value. Every penny would stay in our community for MiraCosta College No funds could be taken by the State or go to other communities Qualifies our college to receive its fair share of state matching funds No funds could be spent on salaries or pensions An independent citizens’ oversight committee would provide reports to the community 10
