LBCC offers info
sessions for voters
Linn-Benton Community College will host three information sessions throughout its service region Oct. 21-23 to explain projects that would be funded by passage of Bond Measure 22-130.
College officials will have concept drawings available and will answer questions about the proposed projects.
The forums will be held:
n Tuesday, Oct. 21, 5:30 p.m., Albany Campus, 6500 Pacific Blvd, Calapooia Center building, room CC-103
n Wednesday, Oct. 22, 5:30 p.m., Benton Center, 757 NW Polk Ave., Corvallis, room BC-107
n Thursday, Oct. 23, 5:30 p.m., East Linn Center, 44 Industrial Way, Lebanon, the Annex Building.
Passage of the bond measure would cost an estimated 18 cents per $1,000 of property valuation, which is about the same as the current tax rate for the 2000 LBCC bond. The 2000 bond will be retired before the new measure would take effect.
The measure would increase capacity and modernize job training programs in health care including nursing and industrial trades including auto and heavy equipment mechanics, welding, machine tool and mechatronics. It would also expand the Benton Center and address parking shortages there, as well as address critical maintenance issues of college facilities.
