Prosperity Award: Imperial Valley College

Imperial Valley College
Visionary Planning for Prosperity

Expansion, Mobility and Sustainability Program

The Imperial Valley College (IVC) Expansion, Mobility and Sustainability Program is an excellent example of the Compass Blueprint Prosperity Principle. As the first LEED-certified public building in Imperial County, the 70,000 square foot science building holds 700 classroom seats in 12 laboratories, 9 classrooms and a 124-seat lecture hall. Alternative energy education is central to this effort and will be further supported through the construction of a 12-acre solar energy field.
