California Progress Report
At Wednesday’s Joint Oversight Hearing on Financing Options for School Facilities - chaired by Senator Alan Lowenthal (D-Long Beach) and Assemblywoman Julia Brownley (D-Santa Monica) - legislators were told California will run out of funding for new construction of the state’s K-12 facilities by April, and modernization of its decaying or seismically deficient infrastructure by August of 2012.
Brownley, who has been a strong advocate for education in California, is proud of the joint effort by the state and local school districts to improve California’s K-12 school facilities over the last decade.
