Building a Better Valley College
![]() |
| LAVC's new energy-efficient Allied Health and Science Center, which open in the Fall, will function as a campus entrance. |
In 2001, the voters of Los Angeles approved Proposition A and in 2003 Proposition AA to help improve college facilities at Los Angeles Valley College.
Valley College is currently undergoing a $286 million renovation and building project to renovate existing buildings and build new energy efficient buildings. Existing classroom buildings are being updated with new paint, new furniture and smart-classroom equipment, remodeled restrooms, and energy efficient windows. All new campus structures are being built as LEED-certified (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) buildings.
In 2006 the campus opened its first LEED-certified building the Maintenance and Operations/Sheriff's Station, which was the first new building in over 30 years. The new LEED-certified Allied Health and Sciences Center, the second new structure on the campus in more than 30 years, will open this fall. Several other new buildings are scheduled to be built including the Robert M. Hertzberg Library and Academic Resource Center, and a new student services building.
These building and renovations projects help revitalize Valley College and provide its students with a state-of-the-art education to help them reach their dreams.
