Background

The Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District Governing Board placed this measure on the ballot, according to the County Counsel's impartial analysis; it would authorize up to $624,000,000 in general obligation bonds if approved by 55% of voters.

According to the analysis and the district's tax rate statement, the estimated average tax is $24.67 per $100,000 of assessed value (highest about $24.98), collected through fiscal year 2058-59, with total debt service of about $1,246,250,216; the statement says taxes for the district's earlier bonds totaled $37.52 per $100,000 in fiscal 2025-26 and that the district does not expect that rate to increase as a result of these bonds.

The analysis notes approval does not guarantee every listed project will be funded and some assume state matching funds; an oversight committee and annual audits are required. The voter guide prints an argument in favor, and no argument against was filed.
