This would help in our efforts to not duplicate programs to the Community. Brock asked for additional comments from the committee on the updated draft provided. Some suggestions were:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Brock will take the updated Site Master Plan to the Governance Council and the Board. After the Site Master Plan is completed, the next step will be a Facilities Master Plan.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Brock reminded the committee of Ginger, our campus dog, who passed away. A group met to come up with a way to honor her memory. The group had a plaque made for her and has asked to place the plaque up in her honor.<\/p>\n Craig shared he feels the time has come for this committee to make a decision about requests such as this, what process should be used, where the plaques should be placed and when. He reminded the committee of the memory benches which were removed when the quad was being redone and they still haven\u2019t been replaced on campus.<\/p>\n Some comments regarding this issue were:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Facilities Committee Minutes<\/p>\n March 10, 2015<\/p>\n Page 3 of 3<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Summary: Replace the memory benches with plaques and return the benches to the family. Identify an appropriate space on campus for the plaques but put Ginger\u2019s plaque in a separate area. A suggestion was made to hand the plaque for Ginger on the building where she use to lay. Debbie will check with Laura to find out the cost of the plaque (confirmed a 12 x 10 for $638.98). There is a possibility the Foundation could advertise for potential donors for the quad area.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Brock, along with AP Architects, reviewed the request from the Hall of Fame Committee to hand the Hall of Fame plaques on the west wall after you enter the Library. Their recommendation is not to use the wall due to the slope of the hallway. They have recommended the Hall of Fame plaques be placed on the back wall of the Cougar Room for now until a permanent place is identified.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Craig mentioned the Kern County Library has been taken over by a private entity. Brock shared he was aware and doesn\u2019t feel the college\u2019s future plans will be negatively impacted.<\/p>\n Brock shared with the committee the Governor has not been in support of a Statewide Educational bond, however there are several groups working together to get this on the next election.<\/p>\n (All handouts from this meeting will be available on the Intranet) <\/em><\/p>\n Next meeting: April 14, 2015, noon, cafeteria conference room. (Lunch provided)<\/p>\n Respectfully submitted by:<\/p>\n Debbie Hegeman<\/p>\n\n
