- REVIEW OF MEETING MINUTES: THE MAY MEETING MINUTES WERE
REVIEWED AND ACCEPTED.
- PARKING: PARKING LOT 8 WILL BE OPEN BY GRADUATION. IF THE COLLEGE PURCHASES LAND ON PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY IT WON’T BE NECESSARY TO CONTINUE WITH THE PARKING STRUCTURE PROJECT.
DR. OAKS HAS RECEIVED COMPLAINTS REGARDING STUDENTS PARKING IN LOT 10. WE’VE REQUESTED TO HAVE “STAFF” PAINTED ON EACH STALL.
IT WAS MENTIONED THAT CARS WITH ADA CARDS CAN PARK IN ANY STALL AVAILABLE.
CONSTRUCTION: THE NEW ATHLETIC BUILDING IS ON SCHEDULE. IT WAS DISCUSSED THAT PHYSICAL EDUCATION COULD BE A NON-CREDIT CLASS. THE BUSINESS BUILDING COULD POSSIBLY BE DEMOLISHED BY JULY 2009 AND THE LIBRARY WILL BE BUILT IN ITS PLACE.
THE ONE STOP CAREER CENTER WILL BE HOUSED IN THE OLD ADMINISTRATION BUILDING.
MR. GLOVER MENTIONED MANY ISSUES WITH THE COMPUTER LABS BEING LEFT OPEN IN THE TECHNOLOGY BUILDING. SINCE EQUIPMENT HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY STOLEN HE WOULD LIKE SECURITY CAMERAS TO BE PURCHASED. THE COLLEGE HAS BEEN WORKING WITH PINNACLE ONE TO HAVE CAMERAS INSTALLED IN THE NEA FACULTY OFFICES.
BUILDING ISSUES: THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF WEAR AND TEAR ON THE NEW BUILDINGS, THE PAINT IN THE CLASSROOM LOBBY AREA HAS BECOME WORN FROM STUDENTS LEANING THEIR SHOES AGAINST THE WALL. IT WAS ORIGINALLY SUGGESTED TO HAVE LOBBY RAIL SEATING. THE NEA BUILDING CURRENTLY HAS NO HOT WATER. ENGLISH AND MATH DEPARTMENTS HAVE REQUESTED TO HAVE THE PODIUMS RELOCATED WHICH COULD BE COSTLY. CHANGES, IF ANY, SHOULD BY MADE BY MAJORITY INSTRUCTORS. CHANGES COULD DISTURB THE CLASSROOM EQUIPMENT. MR. GLOVER SAID HIS PODIUM WAS RELOCATED IMPROPERLY ANDTHE FLOORING WAS LEFT UNFINISHED. A WALK THROUGH WILL BE ARRAINGED WITH THE COMMITTEE.
SMOKING: THE COMMITTEE HAS RECOMMENDED A SMOKE FREE CAMPUS. CURRENTLY THERE ARE SIGNS INDICATING “NO SMOKING” WITHIN 25 FEET FROM BUILDINGS. IT WAS PREVIOUSLY SUGGESTED TO HAVE SMOKING ZONES. SINCE THE COLLEGE HAS NOT SUPPLIED ENOUGH ASH TRAYS PEOPLE ARE THROWING THEIR BUTTS ON THE FLOOR.
- EMERGENCY EVACUATION: EVACUATION DRILLS WILL BE SCHEDULED AND COORDINATED WITH THE SHERIFFS OFFICE. DATES TO BE SENT OUT VIA EMAIL.
END OF MEETING - Meeting adjourned at 3:00pm
