Measure HH | Bond 2024

Thank you, San Diego voters!

San Diego voters have approved a proposal to provide $3.5 billion to upgrade, repair, and renovate classrooms and facilities at the San Diego Community College District (SDCCD). Measure HH secured support from nearly 60% of voters (55% required to pass), positioning the District to better serve students and the community for decades to come. 

For nearly 20 years, the SDCCD has demonstrated a commitment to honor the trust given by voters to efficiently and effectively manage the Propositions S and N bond programs, resulting in a history of “clean” audits, high bond ratings, and impressive bond transparency performance scores awarded by the San Diego County Taxpayers Association.

The District completed all bond projects as committed to the voters, plus some additional projects as approved by the SDCCD Board of Trustees. Unfortunately, not all District facilities were covered by the previous bonds, leading to aging structures in need of repairs or replacements. With the passage of Measure HH, the District can address immediate and future facilities and infrastructure needs across all colleges and District Offices.

Measure HH earned the support of the San Diego County Taxpayers Association, noting that SDCCD has demonstrated facilities needs and has developed plans that meet the Association's rigorous standards for bond proposals.

Each of our colleges has developed a comprehensive Facility Strategic Plan that advances priorities outlined for academic and career training facilities, safety and accessibility upgrades, energy-related improvements, and facilities designed to help mitigate some of the barriers to educational access and success our students increasingly face, such as affordable student housing and childcare. These plans have been used to prioritize projects to be included Measure HH.

The District is now forming an independent Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee to serve as an advisory body for implementing the Measure HH bond program. Those interested in serving may complete an application and send to Ursula Kroemer, Bond Program Outreach Manager, at ukroemer@sdccd.edu or via mail to the San Diego Community College District, 3375 Camino del Rio South, Rm 310, San Diego, CA 92108.
