1. Culinary Arts at The Brickyard: Curt Groninga provided an update on the Culinary Arts Building at the Brickyard Project. Bids are to be opened on Monday, April 8th and reported to the Board on April 9th for action. Curt is in discussion with the building owner regarding existing and future terms.

  1. Project Labor Agreements: A general discussion regarding the Union Trade Council's proposal regarding Project Labor Agreements. It is the College's understanding that developing a PLA is optional. For those municipalities, K12 districts and few community college districts who have established PLA's, they were apparently developed in response to specific concerns or history of construction labor problems which the College has not yet faced. A number of guests appeared to present their thoughts on the concept of developing Project Labor Agreements. This will be an information item at the May Board meeting.
  2. 3. Library Preliminary Planning: Curt Groninga and Alan Butler (TLCD) reviewed the status of the scope and cost estimates at the Preliminary Design stage. The project is in scope and reflects the projected costs for a project of its magnitude commencing construction in the Summer of 2003. SRJC would be responsible for approximately 29% of total project costs ($12.8 million) and the State would be responsible for approximately 71% of total project costs or $32.2 million) for the $45 million Library design, construction and equipment. BFC directed staff to investigate the viability of generating a thirty to forty year initial roof design and warranty.

  3. Request For Proposals (RFP) for Planning Services: BFC reviewed the proposed Request for Planning Services for the Strategic Capital Projects Plan. Staff was directed to issue the RFP to a number of known higher education physical space and master plan consulting firms.

4. Five-Year Capital Outlay Program Review: BFC reviewed the Five Year Capital Outlay Program prior to submission to the Board and to the State of California.

5. Development of Qualification Criteria for Engineers and Architects: As a preliminary planning document, Curt Groninga reviewed concepts leading to the development of criteria for the selection of minor capital outlay and major capital outlay project architects and engineers. Additionally, he reviewed possible land acquisition criteria with the BFC. It was decided to review a more comprehensive set of recommended criteria for projects and land acquisition at the May Board Facilities Committee meeting.
