3 GOALS OF $122mil BOND - MEASURE ‘U’
Modernize/Repair So that our current schools will last for the next 50 years Equalize To ensure that all LUHSD students have, in general, equitable facilities Accommodate Enrollment Growth With permanent structures and expansion rather than using portable units that are already aging and increasingly expand the academic footprint of the campus
8
Modernization/Safety Projects
Paint and seal older buildings Update electrical systems to accommodate 21st Century Use of Technology Upgrade security fencing and lighting HVAC replacement Repair pavement to eliminate slip, trip and fall hazards New and repaired roofing Modernize library at LHS Modernize competition pool at LHS Upgrade network infrastructure to accommodate the growing number of users
9
Equalization FHS: Theater, Construction classroom and work area
HHS: Culinary Arts classroom and kitchen LHS: Improve office access for public and parents, increase stadium capacity

Growth Projects Cafeteria Expansion at Liberty High School
A 2-story, 16-classroom modular building on all three sites Move “team locker rooms” out of main locker rooms to accommodate more PE lockers Additional parking at Heritage High School *When investigating the building of a new high school outside of the urban limit line, we found the current cost to be prohibitive due to a number of infrastructure issues.
11
Measure “U” Assumptions
Based upon the recently released Assessed Valuations for our attendance area the cost to homeowners will be < $28 per $100,000 of assessed valuation. The average Assessed Valuation for a single family home in LUHSD is $350,834. Therefore, Measure U would cost about $8 month. LUHSD is projected to grow to 9,093 by October 2021, Current enrollment is just over 8,200. The estimated cost to build a high school on the corner of Delta/Sellers was $322 million with flood control, site and off-site work, and construction escalation rates.
12
Other Considerations LUHSD has not passed a Bond since Since that passage our district has grown by over 4,300 students The LUHSD has drastically changed its inter-district approval parameters by only allowing long-term feeder district students into the district. This year alone there were 90 denials of inter-district transfers. The District has tried to improve the school sites using General Fund dollars, e.g. the new Science Wing at LHS. Most of Liberty High was built after the fire of ’63. There are currently 27 portable classrooms at Liberty, 20 at Freedom, and 10 at Heritage. In LUHSD changed boundaries to balance enrollment LUHSD 1989 Bond is now retired
