The Process

Among its other oversight charges, the Bond Oversight Committee also evaluates the 2022 Bond program’s contingency fund balance and allocates funds for additional projects with that balance. The committee works hand-in-hand with staff to identify capital project needs from across the district for funding consideration — from security window film and HVAC repairs, to ADA upgrades and parking lot repairs.

We are fortunate to have a healthy contingency fund balance due to project cost savings, premium, and interest. Two important things to note about contingency funds:

• We are required by law to use those funds in a defined time period.

• We are required by law to use the funds on capital projects.

When reviewing projects, the committee thoughtfully discusses each project, prioritizing the use of project contingency funds towards direct-student-impact projects.
