Trustees Place Facilities Bond on June 2026 Ballot, Approve Solar Contract and Police Union Deal

The Contra Costa Community College District is betting on brick, mortar, and sunshine. At their January 21 meeting, trustees voted to ask voters to fund sweeping infrastructure improvements while simultaneously locking in a district-wide solar energy contract—moves that could reshape the physical and financial footprint of the three-college system for decades.

  • Facilities bond measure headed to June 2, 2026 ballot after unanimous trustee support and organized public backing from faculty, academic senate, and building trades

  • District receives clean audit opinions across all funds, including $203 million OPEB trust

  • Three-year police officers union contract approved 4–0–1

  • Solar PV and battery storage agreement with OpTerra advances (Phase 1 funded; Phase 2 contingent)

  • International education strategy under review amid rising visa denial rates

  • New programs in cybersecurity, AI data literacy, and robotics moving through pipeline

The Board of Trustees adopted a resolution placing a facilities bond measure before voters on June 2, 2026, following an extended discussion that highlighted aging infrastructure, safety needs, and the importance of public oversight.
