  1. Projects at the State Pending Funding:
  • Vocation Center: The Vocational Center project is an approved Final Project Proposal (FPP) at the Chancellor’s office. The project consists of 19,878 assignable square feet (ASF); which consists mostly of laboratories and some office space. This project will be considered for funding on the next statewide general obligation bond. The project is extremely competitive and should have a great chance at being funded.
  1. Facilities Master Plan Our current Facilities Master Plan (FMP) was created in 2012. The Plan was created to include updates through 2012 and future plans which would finish out the Measure A funds. A committee has been working to create a Strategic Action Plan (SAP) as a result of the Educational Master Plan (EMP). Section 4.2 found in the EMP Recommendations identifies a number of action items which the Facilities Committee will work closely on in the near future.

 

  1. Land Acquisition Plan The SAP recommendations request we develop a land acquisition plan to analyze the quality and quantity of current space and future needs as well as identify options and strategies for acquiring financial support.

  1. Campus 5-year Map Jose gave a quick review of the map. The yellow areas are the buildings and land we currently own or occupy and the blue areas indicate what is coming soon which are: (5-Student Center, 9-Vocational building, 28-29-30-The STEM buildings) A large rendering of this map is located in the Administrative Offices if anyone would like to look at it more closely.

 

  1. Welding Facility Taft College was able to secure a building located in the Industrial Park and has secured a lease with the Beard Family Trust. Some work is being done to properly vent the building for the welding classes and Instruction hopes the building will be ready to have some classes in the 2015 spring semester. (Included on the Intranet is a copy of the document Mark Williams submitted to the GC in September for their approval.)
  2. Total Cost of Ownership – Student Center Jose distributed a draft analysis of the TCO for the Student Union. The purpose of a TCO analysis is to make sure financial planning has included enough funds to cover running the building, updates, maintenance, and future modifications to keep the facility modern.
