In November 2005 Bexar County citizens approved a $450 million bond package to construct new Alamo College facilities and renovate existing buildings in order to accommodate student growth.  Nearly four years later, 24 new buildings totaling approximately 1.3 million square feet, plus countless renovations, are the results of the bond issue.
The money funded improvements at the district's four colleges, build a new northeast college and implemented information technology improvements. At that time, Alamo's enrollment had grown 41 percent from 38,000 credit students in fall 1998 to 52,000 in Spring 2005. In September 2009 enrollment surpassed 60,000 credit students.
The bond issue was overseen by a Citizens Bond Oversight Committee established to ensure that planned bond expenditures were approved and carried out in accordance with Board recommendations.
A 2009 snapshot shows construction completed on time and under budget. Renovation projects that were part of the CIP bond issue are ongoing.
