SUMMARY
NOTES
ACTION
RE-BALANCING
OF MEASURE Q
PROJECT
ALLOCATIONS
The summary notes from July 2, 2012 were approved and will be posted on the
BPC website.
DISCUSSION
DRAFT
RANKINGS OF
BUDGET CUTS
Lee Lindsey reported that it is necessary to re-balance the Measure Q project
allocations as the costs of some projects have been higher than expected. He
requested that the committee make a recommendation to do so. He proposed
making budget adjustments to the Old Library Seismic Retrofit and Repurpose
project and also to the HRC Teaching Kitchen relocation project. There was
discussion and the committee agreed to the adjustments to the Old Library project
budget, but felt that Lee should meet with Jeff Cummings, Dean of Career and
Technical Education before a recommendation related to the Culinary Kitchen is
made.
There was discussion regarding the draft rankings of the budget cuts and the need
to identify $1M to cut from the budget. Lee will send the rankings sheet out again
to obtain a final ranking.
STABILITY
FUNDING
Lee reported that we are currently are on Stability Funding due to not meeting our
enrollment cap for the 2011-12 year. We moved 156 FTES to be counted in the
2012-13 year. Every effort will be made to meet the enrollment cap for 2012-13 or
be slightly above if possible.
CLOSING THE
LOOP
In closing Lee noted that Tom Henry will be contracted as the Special Trustee to
the district and to assist with our accreditation concerns. Tom Kesey will be hired
as a consultant to assist with Financial Modeling as related to accreditation.
