Durham Tech President J.B. Buxton's statement on Durham County voters' overwhelming support of the 2022 bond referendum

Durham Tech President J.B. Buxton thanked Durham voters for their support Tuesday night following the overwhelming support and passage of the 2022 Durham County bond referendum for Durham Tech. The $112.7 million bond will fund new facilities in healthcare and life sciences that put more Durham residents in high paying careers.

"I want to thank Durham voters and residents for your support and confidence in Durham Tech. Your investment in the College is an investment in the people of our community. With the passage of the bond, we will be able to construct the facilities needed to prepare people to access great jobs and careers with family-sustaining wages in our region. Your vote helps us deliver on the promise of connecting residents to great jobs and connecting companies to great, diverse talent,” Buxton said.
