With the voters support and approval, the Houston Community College System passed on November of 2003 a Bond issue that would provide funding for the construction of 4 new Learning Hubs, 4 Science and Technology Buildings and the remodeling and additions of 5 other projects in as many buildings. In September or 2004, HCC hired a Joint Venture made of Llewelyn-Davies Sahni, Facility Programming and Consulting and Perspectiva to develop the space program for all of these facilities and insure that they meet the project and construction budgets set by the Board. Additionally, Perspectiva and its joint venture partners are to review the college census trends and forecast future building needs to develop the Master Plan of 4 of HCCS’ main campuses. With the JV’s extensive planning and programming experience, HCCS will be able to aggressively pursue the construction of these 13 projects so that the students may benefit sooner than later with the appropriate spaces and support. Equally important for HCCS, is to forecast future growth to plan for a future Bond issue and meet the increasing demand.
