City-CUSD Joint Use Agreement
Until Coronado Unified School District (CUSD) achieves basic aid status in 2026, CUSD will continue to have financial difficulties.
There is an existing legal mechanism for the City of Coronado to provide financial aid to CUSD – it is called the Joint Use Agreement (Agreement), whereby the City pays CUSD for the public to use district facilities such as athletic fields and the high school track on weekends. The amount the City currently pays CUSD per the Agreement has remained $370K per year since the Agreement was originally negotiated in 2016.
I support the City paying a higher annual amount per the Agreement which may be accomplished in many ways including annual rent escalations, expanding the hours that district facilities are available to the public on weekends, or making additional district facilities available to the public.
