Executive Officer Statement
In her Executive Officer statement, Lisa Silverman provided the following updates:
The State Allocation Board (Board) met on Wednesday, September 25 to hear a number of business items, including approval of Priority Funding apportionments and adoption of Career Technical Education Facilities Program and Charter School Facilities Program regulatory amendments.
Gayle Miller, the Board chair, congratulated Assembly Member O’Donnell and others for the passage of AB 48, which, if signed by the Governor, will place the 2020 state school bond on the ballot.
In my inaugural Message from the Chair, I thanked Don Ulrich for his leadership as the outgoing CASH Chair and formally introduced myself to you. I spoke of having ‘high hopes’ for faster implementation of State bond funds for California schools, but ‘hope’ is not a strategy. My primary focus as Chair of the CASH Board: Full implementation of Proposition 51 to fund previously approved School Facility Program (SFP) projects and support for a 2020 bond as a bridge to a sustainable capital funding system to address current and future needs. In this Message, I will provide updates to our membership on these foundational issues for the organization.
Today the State Allocation Board (Board) met to hear a number of business items, including allocation of the remaining Career Technical Education Facilities Program funds, bond authority for the costs of administering its programs, and a number of appeals.
