OCC green lights $2M in campus improvements

Oakland Community College is moving forward with almost $2 million in improvements, with more possible later this year.

"I am sure there are some on the books," says George Cartsonis, a spokesman for Oakland Community College, adding that those projects will probably be announced after the fiscal year ends in July.

For now the college plans to spend $1.87 million on repairs to facilities at its Highland Lakes and Orchard Ridge campuses this spring and summer.

Highland Lakes will receive $849,500 to repave the parking lot next to the Campus Pavilion. Lighting will be added and the pavilion made accessible to the handicapped.

Orchard Ridge will get emergency structural investigations and repairs to Building K ($375,000), replacement of the emergency generator, distribution panels and lighting in Building J ($199,500), and replacement of 152 campus doors ($473,800).
