Revitalization and Joint Use: Village at Indian Hill, Pomona Unified School District, California

The District bought a 66-acre urban mall, with 750,000 square feet of space. In cooperation with the Los Angeles County Fair, Cal Poly/Pomona, Cisco, Apple and other partners, they designed a long-range plan for meeting the community’s education challenge. The District issued Qualified Zone Academy Bonds, a federal bond package for school districts with improvement projects. The space was renovated to house two elementary schools, a technology development center and a professional development center.
