(Judge/Isomoto) to approve the minutes of January

List C (Facilities).
- The faculty and guests from the English and Foreign Language Department
- expressed their concerns regarding the removal of the Language Arts Building
from Prioritization List A.
- A motion was put forward for the President’s consideration [M/S/P
(Beaulieu/Judge) that the EBPAC committee vote to accept Priority List C for
building projects as proposed by the Facilities Committee].
- All discussions and voting concerning building prioritization were tabled for
the next EBPAC meeting.
President’s Report
Mr. Moreno provided the following
information:
- The requirement that we allocate all Bond monies to projects, after the
passage of each of the Bond Measures, created an unrealistic expectation in
addressing our master plan projects.
- Subsequent rebase lining directives have taken into account escalation
factors and have reduced the number and scope of projects available for
funding.
- In prioritizing master plan projects for bond funding, a number of principles
were developed to more affectively and efficiently accomplish the task. These
principles were outlined in large part in the Jacobs memorandum concerning the
same subject.
With regard to the Prioritization Lists discussions held at the last meeting
(1/24/05), Mr. Moreno provided the following information:
- The president announced, however, that he would recommend reinstating the
Language Arts Building on the Priority List A and would remove the Northeast
parking lot, which would allow for the funding of the Language Arts Building.
- The campus parking needs are a core priority and will be addressed by
building parking structure 4.
- There was comparison of the number of parking spaces at other colleges versus
ELAC which indicated the following:
Pasadena City College- currently has 6800 spaces which include two parking
structures with approximately 2000 spaces in each structure.
Mt. San Antonio College- currently has 7794 spaces of which 1155 staff parking
and 5935 are for student parking.
- Current ELAC parking inventory is approximately 2300 parking spaces.
There was discussion among the committee members regarding the president’s
decision to address the parking needs of the campus. It was expressed that the
college needs to focus on acquiring academic building before addressing the
parking needs. Mr. Moreno responded to the committee that the college has to
move forward with all building projects. Any decision made will be a difficult
one that will affect everything and everyone on campus.
Mr. Moreno gave an overview of the campus master plan map and pointed out the
proposed changes on campus.
Raphael Sanchez, ASU President, commented that addressing the parking issues
will play a big hand for the college. Mr. Sanchez informed the committee that
students often complain about being late to class because it is so difficult to
find parking.
