Topic | Person(s) Responsible | Notes | |
What are the facilities and maintenance updates? | Cheryl Sears | STEM has a roof - Started trenching for the hydronic line - that's why fencing has been extended.

What is the progess on the implementation of "wayfinding"? | Cheryl Sears | -Cheryl showed new campus map. - Will have new kiosks around the campus with the new campus maps. -Will start with replacing the parking signs with the new names. Kiosks and Signs will be re-done at the same time. - Changed layout of the signs - the emblem and QR code smaller - so that there is more room for the lettering of the building names,etc. - QR codes show you where you are and then you select your destination and it will take you to your destination (directions to). - Will include a map of each area as well. - Kiosks will be 8 feet wide, 4 feet tall. with solar powered lighting for these signs. Metal signs (easier to fix now that we have the printing office) - Room numbering will be changed in the future. For example STEM 101 (for first floor), STEM 201 (2nd floor). - Bowman pointed out that when purchasing happens in PeopleSoft, we have to choose our location. Therefore, when the numbering will be changed, it will be an extensive project to include all the aspects. - Will be asking for student feedback on the wayfinding signage- Ramses will follow up with Cheryl on how to get students involved. - Also working with the County to help with signage as someone gets closer to campus from the freeways and surrounding areas. - Regena shared that the Wayfinding group created a master plan and all the details. Therefore, if someone needs to take over the project, they will be able to do so. |

|
What are the technology updates? | Jeff Bucher | Windows 10 migration - down to 65 machines (will not touch them until the break) 350-400 classified computers still need to updated. Will do it for one area at a time, probably on Fridays. No one should have to buy new computers because there are enough computers to cascade that will be able to handle Windows 10. January is when our deadline to do this is. |

What is the progress on the implementation of the "wellness center" project team recommendations? | Parrish Geary | Started addressing the recommendations: Spring 2020 the space will be available for the Wellness Center - Health Wellness Day - Student Health 101 has been purchased. - Hired the Health Center Director - will be stating in October (will start out in current health center until new area is ready) - Started a student survey to make sure that we are meeting the needs of every student population - Hiring: want to bring on adjunct counselor, hopefully another clerk. - Finishing up design of what furniture/colors of what the space will look like - WEAVE will be putting on some events - Medical system will be transferred to MEDICAT |

What is the progress on the Sustainability Improvement Project Team work? | Cheryl Sears | Met for the first time this morning. Reviewed the charter. Initial step is to assess what we are currently doing on our campus (not only the recycling). Climate change was a big part of the conversation - will include a climate change mini-vision statement. Timeline: 1st reading at OC Feb 25, 2nd reading March 24th and then goes to ELT for first and second reading in the following months. Charter is attached to agenda/notes here. Kuldeep went over objectives/deliverables. Will collaborate with district because there are district-wide contracts that we would need to revisit. All project/team charters will now be included in IGOR under the project charters tab (instead of trying to search for the latest Word version) |

District Budget Committee Update: FY2019-20 Adopted Budget | Kuldeep Kaur |
Sept 11 the Board of Trustees adopted the 2019-20 budget. Set of attachments in IGOR. Kuldeep went over attached powerpoint presentation: - Higher level of accountability between the State Budget and community colleges. - we are in the second year of the new student funding formula (started in 2018-19) Hold harmless provision for 3 years. Extended to 2021-22 - Oversight committee of 12 members to look at the funding formula and there are reps from community college system so that recommendations for modifications can be made. - We are receiving the same amount of money, but our accountability is increased. - Student Success Metrics have been a moving target - ARC has been working toward the goal of meeting the Student Success Metrics so we should be in a good space (council members are optimistic). - CRC has an opt out options. Students right out of high school are required to take 15 units unless they opt out. ARC is looking into the idea, but not sure if we are able to scale that as fast at our campus because we are a bigger college. -Districts are limited to no more that 10% growth. If districts do grow, they are not "held harmless" but will get funding for their growth. - Natomas phase 2 and 3, as well as tech ed - were approved by State Facilities funding. will get approximately 50% funding by state. The rest is from previous local general obligation funding. |
