The Legislature hereby finds and declares that the State School Building Lease-Purchase Fund, pursuant to Section 17008, and the proceeds from the sale or lease of surplus school property are the two sources available to school districts to finance the construction of school facilities to relieve overcrowding. However, these sources are still insufficient to meet the construction needs statewide of school districts.
Article 1General Provisions
Section § 17100
California law acknowledges that school districts rely on two main funding sources to build or expand school facilities: the State School Building Lease-Purchase Fund and money from selling or leasing extra school property. Unfortunately, these funds aren't enough to fully address the overcrowding problems that many schools face across the state.
