FACILITIES COMMITTEE MINUTES

Tuesday, March 11, 2014

Members Present: Adrian Agundez, Brock McMurray, Carla Sandoval, Craig Johnson, Darcy Bogle, Jeff Ross, Jose Vargas, Marisa Slayton, Sonja Swenson, and Debbie Hegeman as recorder.

Members Absent: Claudia Casagrande, Greg Hawkins and Mike Capela.

  1. Dorm Modernization – This project began construction the first week of November 2013. The Contractor, Black/Hall Construction, is well underway with 35% of Phase 1 completed. Phase 1 is scheduled to be done at the end of May, 2014 with Phase 2 beginning immediately after.
  2. Student Center – Construction documents are complete and were submitted to DSA during December 2013. While at DSA, the project will also be submitted to local Health Department for food service/kitchen portions of the work. The current anticipated construction start date is end of fourth quarter 2014 pending completion of the Dorm project.

 

  1. STEM Engineering Buildings – (copies attached to official minutes and located on-line) This project is going to follow the bid process of Lease Leaseback instead of the traditional public bid process. This process requires Board approval for an RFQ (Request for Quote) to be sent out to a hand selected group of Contractors. Once a Contractor has been selected, plans can be finalized for DSA submission. The scope of this project, modular buildings and minor site work, is considered “Over the Counter” by DSA and should be reviewed in a matter of days. The Lease Leaseback option has many advantages on a project like this, including but not limited to, a great deal of control in choosing an appropriate Contractor for the project.

 

  1. Prop 39 – (copies of plans and scope of work are attached to official minutes and on-line) PG&E has approved the proposed scope of lighting retrofit for energy efficiency in and around the Gym. The project is currently being prepared for Board approval during April. Pending Board approval, the project is anticipated to start construction in May and complete during the summer of 2014.
  2. Scheduled Maintenance Special Repairs – (copies of plans and scope of work are attached to official minutes and on-line) The college has received scheduled maintenance funds from the Chancellor’s Office at a 1 to 1 match, creating approximately an overall project of $200,000; which is to be spent by June 2014. In looking at existing campus needs and future projects, the most appropriate use of these funds has been determined to be an upgrade and retrofit of the utilities and chiller lines down the alley behind the Science building. The lines will tie from the chiller to the new Student Center location (Old TIL Administration and T Dorms). New fencing and painting along the alley are being planned as funds allow.

  1. Other – Below are some of the issues discussed:
  • Carla shared the classified unit had asked her to check on the possibility of putting in a four way stop at the corner of TC and Ash. Darcy shared with the committee the Campus Safety and Security Committee had already been asked to address this issue. They have recommended a four way stop, which would require both city and county involvement. She stated Paul Linder supports this idea, and will be working with necessary parties for a resolution by the end of the month.
  • Speed bumps through the parking area were brought up and the Campus Safety and Security Committee agree something should be done to slow down the traffic.
  • The question was raised if we could find money somewhere to redo the plants in the triangular planter area outside the Library. Jose and Marisa said they, too, had noticed the area and said they would check to see if there was a way to address this issue.
  • Sonja brought up the damaged caps on the planters outside the T-Building. She said many students sit in this area and wanted to check on benches as an alternate sitting area.
  • Gym roof – still leaking. Mike has called out a roofing company to for review and we should have more information about this later.

Debbie Hegeman

Next meeting is Tuesday, April 8, 2014 at noon in the Cafeteria Conference room.
