Commentary on Measure GG

Are you sure you want vote to support this extravagant measure? It has no accountability.

This campaign was designed by a member of the school bonds cartel. We figured out just the right words to get you to you to open up your checkbook.

We'd also like to introduce you to our partners -- bond lawyers, brokers, wealthy investors, architects, management firms, construction companies, and trade unions. We all stand to make a ton of money on these bonds. Our profits come right off the top, before a penny is actually spent on improving the facilities.

We're not just doing it for the money. We like to show off our work in Architectural Digest and other places where the rich and famous congregate.

Remember, we've taken a lot of risk. We gave money to get your governing board members elected, so they'd be sure to remember us when we came around for a hand-out later.

It's just business-as-usual, here in sunny Corruptifornia.

Please don't read the fine print. That's just put in by the lawyers to make what we're going to do to for you legal.

Really? The staff selects the committee. The Board rubber-stamps it. The Board can remove anyone who questions anything that the money is used for. You can be certain that there won't be anyone on the committee who isn't a cheerleader for spending your money on architectural marvels, like the Taj Mahal., no money for administrator salaries and all money staying local?"

Argument in Favor of Measure GG

GLENDORA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT

2017 School Bond Measure - Election Day: November 7, 2017

Argument in Favor of Measure GG

Glendora Unified Schools are the cornerstone of our community, and represent the future of our city. In order to continue providing our students a high-quality education, we need modern, safe facilities and up-to-date technology. Measure GG provides a prudent, responsible plan to address our most critical needs.

Academic standards are rising for what it takes to compete in the 21st-century global economy. In addition, career technical education has grown in rigor, complexity, and skills required to prepare students for well-paying careers. Measure GG will give our students access to the education, facilities, and technology they need to be successful in college and their careers.

Measure GG will:

• - Provide the facilities and technology needed to support high-quality instruction in math, science, engineering, and technology, as well as music and art;
• - Upgrade and modernize classrooms, science labs, career-training facilities, computer systems and instructional technology;
• - Repair aging plumbing, electrical, heating and ventilation systems;
• - Improve student safety and campus security systems, including security lighting, security cameras, emergency communications systems, smoke detectors, fire alarms and sprinklers.

Measure GG requires a clear system of accountability, including a project list detailing how money will be allocated. It includes a Citizens' Oversight Committee and independent audits to ensure the money is spent properly. Measure GG funds stay in the District to support Glendora students; they cannot be taken away by the State. By law, all funds must be used to improve our classrooms and school facilities; none will be used for administrator salaries.

Even if you do not have school-age children, Measure GG is a wise investment. Good schools improve our quality of life in Glendora and protect the value of our homes.

For our students and our community, please vote YES on GG.

FULL TEXT BALLOT PROPOSITION
OF THE GLENDORA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
BOND MEASURE ELECTION NOVEMBER 7, 2017

The following is the full proposition presented to the voters by the Glendora Unified School District.

"To upgrade and modernize classrooms, science labs, career training facilities, computer systems, and instructional technology to support high quality instruction/student achievement in science, technology, engineering, math/skilled trades, acquire, construct, and repair classrooms, facilities, sites/equipment, repair aging plumbing, electrical, heating/ventilation systems, improve student safety and campus security systems, shall Glendora Unified School District issue $98,000,000 in bonds at legal interest rates, with independent citizen oversight, no money for administrator salaries and all money staying local?"

PROJECT LIST

The Board of Education of the Glendora Unified School District is committed to improving the quality of education in local schools by providing safe, secure, upgraded classrooms and science labs so students are prepared for college or other good paying careers. To that end, the Board evaluated the District's urgent and critical facility needs, including safety issues, class size, computer and information technology, and prepared a General Obligation Bond Program Plan, dated May 8, 2017, which is incorporated herein in its entiretyCriticalReferencing this is a scam devised by school bonds cartel lawyers, who write these measures. Proposition 39 requires that the list be in the measure. Out-of-sight, out-of-mind. The Board can change anything that's not in this measure any time it wishes. The lawyers know this. What's the purpose of the following 2,000+ words? To allow the district to do, literally, anything it wants with the money. That's what you're voting on., in developing the scope of projects to be funded. The District conducted a facilities evaluation and received public input in developing this Project List. Teachers, staff, community members and the Board have prioritized the key health and safety needs so that the most critical facility needs are addressed. The Board concluded that providing classrooms for technical education so students are prepared for college and good paying careers in health science, engineering, technology and skilled trades and protecting the quality of our schools, the quality of life in our community, and the value of our homes are wise investments. Therefore, in approving this Project List, the Board of Education determines that the District must:

1. (i) Repair or replace aging plumbing, electrical, heating and ventilation systems; and
2. (ii) Provide the facilities and technology needed to support high quality instruction in math, science, engineering and technology; and
3. (iii) Provide classrooms and labs for career and technical education classes so students are prepared for college and good paying careers in fields like health sciences, engineering, technology, and skilled trades; and
4. (iv) Improve student safety and campus security systems, including security lighting, cameras, emergency communications systems, smoke detectors and fire alarms; and
5. (v) Adhere to specific fiscal accountability safeguards:
1. (a) All expenditures subject to annual independent financial audits.
2. (b) No funds used for administrators' salaries and pensions.

3. (c) No money taken by the State. All funds stay local.
4. (d) All expenditures reviewed by an independent citizens' oversight committee to ensure that funds are spent only as authorized.

The Project ListCriticalThis really takes the cake. How is any of this "a list of the specific school facilities projects to be funded" as required by the California Constitution? It's not. It authorizes the district to spend the money on whatever it wants, whenever it wants, wherever it wants. includes the following types of upgrades and improvementsCriticalClearly it's not a "list of the specific school facilities projects to be funded" as required by the Constitution. It's a BLANK CHECK. at District schools, facilities and sites:

IMPROVE STUDENT LEARNING FOR COLLEGE AND CAREERS

Basic School Repair and Upgrade Projects To Maintain High-Quality Learning Environment

Goals and Purposes: If we want our students to be prepared for college and good paying careers in fields like health sciences, engineering, technology and skilled trades, then we must provide modern classrooms for career and technical education classes.

Local schools were built more than 30-60 years ago they need basic repairs, including aging plumbing, electrical, heating and ventilation systems so they can serve the community well for decades to come.

KEEP STUDENTS SAFE

Student Safety and Campus Securitl Projects

Goal and Purpose: Whether or not you have school-age children, protecting the quality of our schools, the quality of life in our community, and the value of our homes is a wise investment. This measure will upgrade security lighting, fencing, smoke detectors, fire alarms, sprinklers, and campus security systems for improved student safety.

Schools will benefit from a variety of safety projects, such as:

• 0 Replace aging portable classrooms that are expensive to maintain with new, modern classrooms.
• 0 Improve student safety and campus security systems, including security lighting, security cameras, emergency communications systems, smoke detectors, fire alarms and sprinklers.
• 0 Ensure that childrens' playground equipment and play areas meet current health and safety standards.

The listed projects will be completed as neededCriticalYou see? None of these repairs are current needs. They may be needed in the future, though. After years and years of neglect, any facility will fall into disrepair.. Each projectCriticalHere it comes. This is the kitchen sink paragraph. Ask an English teacher to diagram every sentence.

It's here so that just in case the district left something out, this covers it, no matter what the district wants to do. is assumed to include its share of furniture, equipment, architectural, engineering, and similar planning costs, program/project management, staff training expensesCriticalTraining is an operating expense, specifically prohibited by the California Constitution. What will it train staff to do? How to open a door? How to turn on the lights? This is just another way to move operating costs from the general fund to the bonds and use the money saved to pay salaries, benefits, and pensions. and a customary contingency for unforeseen design and construction costs. In addition to the listed projects stated above, the Project List also includes the acquisition of a variety of instructional, maintenance and operational equipment, including the reduction or retirement of outstanding lease obligationsCriticalLeases are OPERATING expenses explicitly prohibited by the Constitution Article XIII-A Section 1(b)(3)(A) (Proposition 39). "not for any other purpose, including teacher and administrator salaries and other school operating expenses." and interim funding incurred to advance fund projects from the Project List; installation of signage and fencing; payment of the costs of preparation of all facility planning, facility studies, assessment reviews, facility master plan preparationCriticalFacilities master plans are required by law, whether or not there is a bond. These are OPERATING expenses explicitly prohibited by the Constitution Article XIII-A Section 1(b)(3)(A) (Proposition 39). "not for any other purpose, including teacher and administrator salaries and other school operating expenses." and updates, environmental studies (including environmental investigation, remediation and monitoring), design and construction documentation, and temporary housing of dislocated District activities caused by construction projects. In addition to the projects listed above, the repair and renovation of each of the existing school facilities may include, but not be limited to, some or all of the following: add or renovate student and staff restrooms; repair and replace electrical, plumbing, heating and ventilation systems; upgrade of facilities for energy efficiencies; repair and replace worn-out and deteriorated roofsCriticalIs it a coincidence that every district in the state has "leaky roofs"? You might even ask if leaky roofs actually exist? If they do, why haven't they been repaired yet. Are they reported on the School Accountability Report Card? If not, then you're being lied to.

The budget for each project is an estimate and may be affected by factors beyond the District's control. Some projects throughout the District, such as gyms, fields and performing arts facilities, may be undertaken as joint use projects in cooperation with other local public or non-profit agenciesCriticalThe California Constitution prohibits the use of Proposition 39 bond funds for anything other than "school facilities." The term is used no less than five times in the Constitution. It's not for funding community projects.. The final cost of each project will be determined as plans and construction documents are finalized, construction bids are received, construction contracts are awarded and projects are completed. Based on the final costs of each project, certain of the projects described above may be delayed or may not be completed. Demolition of portable classrooms and existing facilities and reconstruction of facilities scheduled for repair and upgrade may occur, if the Board determines that such an approach would be more cost-effective in creating more enhanced and operationally efficient campuses. Necessary site preparation/restoration may occur in connection with new construction, renovation or remodeling, or installation or removal of relocatable classrooms, including ingress and egress, removing, replacing, or installing irrigation or drainage systems, utility lines, trees and landscaping, relocating fire access roads, and acquiring any necessary easements, licenses, or rights of way to the property.

NO DISTRICT EMPLOYEES OR VENDORS ARE ALLOWED TO SERVE ON THE CITIZENS' OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE.

NO ADMINISTRATOR SALARIES: PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE OF THE BONDS AUTHORIZED BY THIS PROPOSITION SHALL BE USED ONLY FOR THE ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION, RECONSTRUCTION, REHABILITATION, OR REPLACEMENT OF SCHOOL FACILITIES, INCLUDING THE FURNISHING AND EQUIPPING OF SCHOOL FACILITIES, AND NOT FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE, INCLUDING TEACHER AND SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR SALARIES AND OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES.
