Five-Year Construction Plan

The Five-Year Construction Plan for the District is an annual submission required by the State Chancellor's office for capital construction funding. In order for the Facilities Unit of the California Community Colleges Chancellor's Office (CCCCO) to recommend projects to the Department of Finance (DOF), the Five-Year Construction Plan must be submitted to verify the needs of the District over this five-year period. Initial Project Proposals (IPP's) are submitted at the same time. Two IPP's are being submitted with this year's plan as detailed in Section A below.

The California Community College's Chancellor's Office (CCCCO) requires that each community college district prepare a Five-Year Construction Plan showing all projects that are planned to be constructed, with both state and local funding. This Construction Plan summarizes all projects, calculating the capacity load ratios for offices, labs, classrooms, libraries, and AV/TV, based on growth projections. The plan includes descriptions of each project proposed for the campuses and the District as a whole. The plan submitted is congruent with Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District Comprehensive Strategic and Facilities Plan 2022-2028.

Section A

Initial Project Proposals (IPPs)

Grossmont College

Grossmont College Fire & Domestic Water Improvements (IPP): This IPP proposes to install building booster pumps to address low water pressure, fire sprinklers at several existing buildings, a master pump station at the front of campus to address water volume, and a dedicated water storage tank, ensuring a reliable and efficient water distribution network throughout the campus. This IPP is a Category A-Life and Safety, which will require a 25% match by District funds. The IPP submitted is congruent with the Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District Comprehensive Strategic and Facilities Plan 2022-2028.

Cuyamaca College

Cuyamaca College Chill Water Plant & Infrastructure Improvements (IPP): This IPP proposes to address campus underground water lines infrastructure, central plant chillers, water cooling towers, and other related equipment due to water leaks and loss of chemicals necessary to treat the water supply from the local water authority. This IPP is a Category A-Life and Safety, which will require a 25% match by District funds. The IPP submitted is congruent with the Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District Comprehensive Strategic and Facilities Plan 2022-2028.
