The Huntington Beach City School District (HBCSD) is pleased to announce the approval of a joint-use agreement with the Ocean View School District (OVSD) to share OVSD’s existing transportation facility at Newland and Warner. Approved by both Boards at tonight’s meetings, this partnership provides a long-term, cost-effective solution that allows the District to collaborate with a neighboring district to maximize resources, reduce costs, and enhance operational efficiency.

Benefits of the Agreement

Through this joint-use arrangement, HBCSD and OVSD will:

• Secure reliable space for bus storage and daily operations

• Provide parking for drivers and dispatch coordination

• Support the safe and efficient management of routes and schedules

• Reduce costs through shared facility use, preserving more resources for classrooms and student programs

Student transportation services will continue without disruption. District buses will remain housed at the leased facility on Gothard Street until the joint-use facility is ready.

HBCSD extends its appreciation to OVSD for its partnership and collaboration on this agreement. Together, this initiative demonstrates how school districts can work collectively to deliver greater value to students and the community.

The District will continue to keep the community informed as implementation moves forward and facility details are finalized. Thank you for your continued support of our students, staff, and transportation team.
