The District, in turn, re ‐ allocated $1.9 million to Schedule Maintenance projects and $100,000 to each the Colleges. The State is making the same amount of funds available for the 2015 ‐ 16 school year (no match required). The allocations per college and facilities is yet to be determined. • A priority list will be vetted, through the college shared ‐ governance process, to determine equipment needs to be acquired over a multi ‐ year process. • Total Cost of Ownership for Technology: Technology needs for instruction, operational and mobility is crucial as most of the District’s classrooms at Laney and COA are yet to be implemented. All our classrooms District ‐ wide need to have the capacity of delivering instructions via technology. 7
