E. Approval Process
A COBCP for an academic 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 academic projects are then forwarded to the Department of Finance (DOF) and the Legislative Analyst's Office (LAO) for review and approval. Legislative budget hearings take place during the spring of each year, and site visits with DOF and LAO may be scheduled to review program proposals and evaluate the project scope and location.
