Many state and local residents around the country showed their commitment to public construction in November by voting for at least $24 billion of bond initiatives.
Some measures that won approval included $16 billion for California construction projects. That measure included $3.5 billion of security and plumbing improvements in San Diego; $2 billion for homelessness prevention housing, $4 billion for other housing initiatives and veterans’ loans and $1.5 billion for children’s hospitals.
