The Austin Community College District (ACC) will soon begin work on a $770 million general obligation bond approved by District voters in the November 8, 2022 election. The bond funds projects in communities across Central Texas that increase training capacity for high-demand fields such as health care and advanced manufacturing. It also includes new sites in southeast and southwest Travis County.
