​​​E. ​Approval Process

A COBCP for an Infrastructure Improvement project is reviewed by appropriate divisions within the Chancellor's Office before inclusion on the action-year priority list and presentation to the Board of Trustees, recommending that the capital outlay proposal be approved as a part of the budget (action) year capital outlay program.

BOT-approved infrastructure improvement projects are then forwarded to the Department of Finance (DOF) and the Legislative Analyst's Office (LAO) for review and approval. Once the project list clears the budget hearing process, it is considered approved and may be funded.

Once project funding is approved, the campus can proceed with the design phase. The Major Capital Outlay Transmittal Sheet lists the remaining project submittals to CPDC, most notably the 75% Schematic Design. For more information about funding approval, see Step F.
