The 2025-2035 GCC Facilities Strategic Plan (Abridged) as presented to the Board of Trustees on Nov 19, 2024

Bond Program

Measure GCC

City of Glendale voters approved the $600 million Measure GCC Bond. Nearly 70 percent of Glendale voters passed Measure GCC on November 5 guaranteeing a $600M investment in the college’s future well beyond tomorrow by securing the resources we will need to achieve our institutional goals. Some of the key items the bond will address include:

  1. Repairing aged infrastructure (gas and sewer lines, plumbing, and outdated electrical and computer systems)
  2. Providing equipment and technology to support critical career pathways (nursing, firefighting, law enforcement, EMTs, robotics, engineering, etc.)
  3. Improve access for students and employees with disabilities
  4. Improving earthquake and fire safety and removing hazardous materials

Visit this page for developments as we begin to prioritize the projects identified in our Facilities Strategic Plan and look forward to working together as we approach the college’s 100-year anniversary and prepare for the next century of service to benefit our students and the community.

Measure GC

On November 8, 2016, City of Glendale voters approved the $325 million Measure GC Bond. The funds allocated under this measure have enabled the District to continue upgrading its educational facilities, add classrooms and instructional support space at the Verdugo Campus, the Garfield Campus, and the Montrose Campus.

The Measure GC Bond program is overseen by a Citizen’s Bond Oversight Committee. Details about the Committee can be found here.

Additional information on the 2016 Measure GC Bond Program, as well as on the earlier Measure G Bond Program from 2002, can be found here.

Verdugo Campus

Verdugo Campus

The District’s Facilities Master Plan translates Verdugo’s educational planning needs and identified campus issues into a series of facilities and site recommendations. These recommendations build upon the character and structure of the Campus, strengthen Glendale Community College’s identity and presence within the community and region, and fortify the Campus’ ability to maintain its focus on student learning and development.

Garfield Campus

Garfield Campus

To ensure that current and future needs are met, the District’s Facilities Master Plan focuses on completing the development of the Garfield Campus, which opened its doors in 1990 and has grown ever since. The Plan recommends new facilities to keep pace with this growth, but the campus itself must expand before that can happen.
