(AP) — Plans for a new Lincoln career center hinge on voter approval of a $153 million bond measure that is aimed primarily at providing new schools and additions and renovations at existing school buildings.

The Lancaster County Election Commissioner will mail ballots Wednesday, and voters must have them back by Feb. 11.

The career center would be a joint project between Lincoln Public Schools and Southeast Community College. The two-story building would sit on the southwest corner of the college campus on the east side of Lincoln.

The bond measure includes $12.5 million for the district’s half of the Capital Career Center. The center would provide students with hands-on experience in various manufacturing and technical fields.
