Prop 1 on Nov. 4 ballot gains more local support as TSTC plans major Seguin campus Darren Dunn
(Seguin) -- One of the amendments on the state’s constitutional amendment election ballot is getting lots of support from local business leaders in Seguin. Proposition One calls for the creation of an endowment that will provide a better funding mechanism for Texas State Technical College (TSTC). TSTC already operates a small campus near the New Braunfels Municipal Airport, but has plans to relocate and build a much larger campus on Highway 46 in Seguin. Chester Jenke, president of the Seguin Area Chamber of Commerce, says Proposition One would give TSTC a better way to access the funding that it needs to help students get trained for their future
careers. “Proposition One is Senate Joint Resolution 59, which created the opportunity to create a constitutional amendment that creates a permanent technical institution infrastructure fund. That’s a long phrase for saying it creates an endowment using the general fund, which is money that’s already there-about $850 million. TSTC gets to use those, for lack of better terms, interest off of those funds to create new programs and to fund programs that are already in place,” said Jenke. The approval of Proposition One would streamline their efforts to get funding for capital projects, like the one that’s planned here in Seguin. TSTC, pg. 3
