What is the Wake Tech bond?
With five campuses and dozens of community sites across Wake County, Wake Tech is bursting at the seams. Enrollment is projected to grow from 57,000 in 2007 to more than 78,000 in 2015, an increase of 40 percent. To accommodate that growth, Wake Tech will need to repair and upgrade many campus buildings – and build some new ones. Wake Tech will need $115 million to cover the required repairs and new construction in the next four years.
