Marty: Poor decisions at Gavilan College
Completion and occupancy of the proposed San Benito Education Center has been pushed out to fiscal year 2020-21, according to the last Gavilan Community College Five-Year Capital Outlay Plan. However, for that to happen the district will have to get the state to pony up 100 percent of site development and facilities funding, $24.3 million. That estimated cost has increased $9.2 million (62%) from the plan costs of only four years ago. The San Benito County cost increase outpaces the other ballooning Gavilan projects over the same period; the Coyote Valley project cost estimate – not including the latest $17 million lease scheme – increased $6.9 million (40%), the Theater Replacement Project increased $2.8 million (16%), and the Library/Media Remodel increased $2.9 million (21%).
