ACCD PROPOSITION
On January 28, 2025, the ACCD Board of Trustees called an election to authorize the issuance of general obligation bonds in the amount for $987 million to acquire, improve, construct, equip, and renovate facilities and sites throughout the College District.
A Citizen’s Bond Advisory Committee participated in proposing the issuance of bonds to address the region's growing educational and workforce demands. Bexar County's population projections show an expected rise of over 29%, reaching nearly 2.5 million residents by 2040.
The following bond proposition will appear in English and Spanish on the May 3, 2025 election ballot:
