Mission
The State University Construction Fund is a public benefit corporation established in 1962 to serve as the construction agent for academic buildings, dormitories and other facilities at State-operated institutions and statutory colleges under the jurisdiction of the State University of New York (SUNY). Consistent with the State University's approved Master Capital Construction Plan, the Fund oversees construction, acquisition, reconstruction and rehabilitation or improvement of such facilities.
Budget Highlights
The Executive Budget includes $18.8 million in appropriations funded from proceeds of State University Educational Facilities Revenue bonds. This level of funding represents a change of $1.5 million from 2007-08, due primarily to an increase in staff from 125 to 135 in order to address the design, planning and construction management workload of the State University's new $4.4 billion, five-year Educational Facilities Capital Plan and $450 million five-year Hospital Capital Plan. This funding level is based on the multi-year priorities identified by the State University of New York for its 29 State-operated campuses, three hospitals and the Statutory colleges at Cornell University and Alfred University.
