12 Noon, Room 1506
In Attendance: See sign-in sheet
Meeting Minutes: were distributed
Special Reports: none
Project Status Update:
Doug, with reference to meeting handouts, provided updates and a projection of
construction activity over the next academic year. Current projects include stages of
work on one new building (P.E. Strength and Fitness Center) and three renovation
projects (Soccer Field, B300 and B1400/1600).
Wanda asked about the status of B100 planning and Doug indicated that
September/October would have additional user/design input meetings. Gary asked
about the “pie” area with respect to who had the decision power concerning the use for
that area. Doug replied that the B100 Media Center “wedge” is part of the design
project scope and that final space allocations (what programs go where) would be
determined during Schematic Design.
Doug informed the committee that proposals for development of updated Educational
Master Plans were reviewed and forwarded for an award of contract at the September
21st Board meeting. The process will include broad input from the college community
and after the Educational Master Plan is solidified it will drive an update of the Campus
Facility Master Plan. There was a small discussion about the use of consultants and it
was apparent that the specialty expertise needed for detailed plans would logically be
provided through established consulting firms.
