Raymond made a motion to accept the slate, Clay seconded. All
approved. Maureen suggested Mae as CSAC representative. Teresa said
she would contact Mae and ask her if she would serve in this role.
6) New Business
a. A motion was made by Maureen to table the decisions for AP
representation needed in 14/15 to give the committee more time to
review the materials submitted by prospective nominees and suggested
the decisions be made at the August meeting. Donna seconded this
and all agreed.
b. Upcoming UPPAC meeting on July 10
1. Teresa will travel to the UIUC campus later in the day
to represent UIS for the Springfield campus. Laura
Alexander will also be attending. All other executive
committee members were unable to attend. She plans
to use the Chancellor’s end of year summary as part of
report on UIS activities.
7) Committee Updates
a. APAC website – Clay Bellot – no updates
b. Campus Senate Report – Raymond – no updates
c. CSAC –Jo Barnard mentioned that September 24 will be Civil Service
appreciation day, nominations are currently requested for CARE
award, and CS has a pilot for professional development for this year.
The new CSAC members have been seated and elections for the
executive committee are next month. Ed Wojcicki thanked APAC for
their support in this. Calculations were a bit challenging but $30,000
has been allocated. Teresa offered to follow up with the APAC
Professional Development Committee to get information on their
reporting structure for Ed.
d. Other committee updates (none)
8) Public Comments/Announcements/Miscellaneous Discussion
Ed asked if there were any questions regarding the pay raise
announcement. He explained the process for allocation. This year a pool
of 2.5% is allocated, however; supervisors and divisions heads have the
prerogative to give more or less depending on merit and retention.
Supervisors have more authority to allocate raises because performance
evaluations are not tied to pay raises. Patti Sims stated that each division
also receives an additional 1% of compression equity for pay adjustments.
Additional funds have not been allocated by the legislature for the
increase; the campus is reallocating funds for the raise. New employees
may have a probationary period that impacts when the raise occurs.

Union wage negotiations have been resolved. UPI has a 4 year contract;
AFSCME may have a three year contract; FOP has a wage reopener and
the contract covers a longer period.
The new police building will go out for bid in the fall with hopes of
beginning to dig in the fall but most likely will be spring 2015. It takes
about a year to build. Resources will be stretched due to construction of
both the police and student union taking place simultaneously.
9) Adjournment
a. Motion to adjourn by James.
b. Donna seconded the motion.
c. Meeting adjourned at 9:50 a.m.
