Action Item “IV“
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of a Guaranteed Pathway Program Agreement between
Western Governor’s University Texas and San Jacinto College District
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the Guaranteed Pathway
Program Agreement for nursing degrees between Western Governor’s University Texas
(WGU Texas) and San Jacinto Community College District (SJCD).
BACKGROUND
Western Governor’s University Texas (WGU Texas) is a comprehensive public institution of
higher education within the State of Texas. WGU Texas offers undergraduate and graduate
degree programs in nursing to educate students to become qualified, competent, professional
nurses who are prepared for practice. To achieve that goal, WGU Texas offers a Registered
Nurse (RN) to Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree and a RN to Master’s of
Science in Nursing (MSN) degree articulation program. The BSN and MSN programs offer
RNs an opportunity to continue their education and to earn a BSN or MSN. This agreement
between WGU Texas and the SJCD specifies a framework within which our Associate of
Applied Science in Nursing degree (ADN) graduates may receive admission and seamlessly
transfer to the RN to BSN program offered by WGU Texas.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
The College’s ADN graduates shall be eligible for admission into the Western Governor’s
University BSN degree program, specifically the RN-to-BSN articulation track. Western
Governor’s University nursing program will provide graduates who have earned the ADN from
San Jacinto Community College District preference for admission to WGU Texas if they apply
for admission to the RN-to-BSN degree, RN-to-MSN Education degree, or RN-to-MSN
Leadership and Management degrees.
BUDGET INFORMATION (INCLUDING ANY STAFFING IMPLICATIONS)
None
MONITORING AND REPORTING TIMELINE
The commencement of this Bachelor Of Science Nursing Articulation is when it has been
signed by the governing body of each institution. This articulation agreement shall continue
indefinitely until such time as either or both institutions wish to terminate it.
Regular participation updates will be obtained from WGU Texas.

Guaranteed Pathway Program Agreement
Between Western Governor’s University Texas and San Jacinto Community
College District
For the RN to BSN and RN to MSN Nursing Degrees
Western Governor’s University Texas (“WGU Texas”) and San Jacinto Community College
District (“SJCD”), recognizing the need to facilitate the admission of transfer students from
public colleges to WGU Texas as they pursue a bachelor’s or master’s degree in Nursing, resolve
to adopt this Guaranteed Pathway Program Agreement. Students who do not meet the admissions
standards described herein may still apply and will be considered for admission, although it is
not guaranteed.
The Guaranteed Pathway Program is a dual admission program for nursing students and maps
coursework from an Associate’s degree and RN licensure to one of three WGU Texas degrees:
B.S. Nursing (RN to BSN), M.S. Nursing - Education (RN to MSN Option), or M.S. Nursing Leadership and Management (RN to MSN Option).
The bachelor’s and master’s degrees relevant to this Agreement and offered by WGU Texas are
described below:
•
•
•
The B.S. Nursing (RN to BSN) is a degree program for students who have completed an
associate’s degree in nursing and hold an unencumbered RN license seeking to earn a
bachelor’s degree. The program requires a minimum of 90 hours of mentor-guided field
experience in a qualified community health services setting, such as a public health
department or clinic plus a clinical leadership experience conducted in their place of work.
The M.S. Nursing - Education degree (RN to MSN Option) is a program for RNs who want
to earn both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree. Prospective students must have
completed an associate’s degree in nursing and hold an unencumbered RN license. This
program is designed to provide RNs with the knowledge and skills to become an effective,
credible nurse educator.
The M.S. Nursing - Leadership and Management degree (RN to MSN Option) is a program
for RN’s who want to earn both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree. Prospective
students must have completed an associate’s degree in nursing and hold an unencumbered
RN license. This program is designed to provide RNs with the knowledge and skills to
become effective and credible leaders of nurses.

IV. Recommended Projects and A. Operating Funds
1. Approval of Additional Funds for North Campus 24
Delivery Methods which
acre Site Development Services
will provide the best value
to the College
• (Bryan Jones) We are requesting additional
funds and scope of work for land development
services on the 24 acres located off of Uvalde
Road across from the North Campus. This is the
third request for the development services on
this property.
• (Bryan Jones) The work proposed for the 24
acre land parcel will be conducted by Berg
Oliver and lead by Brooks and Sparks.
• (Bryan Jones) This is the third step required for
preparation of the 24 acre site for construction.
• (Brenda Hellyer) When we bought the land we
performed basic due diligence investigations,
believing wetlands were likely at the site. The
steps since then are designed to get the specific
details on the wetlands, in order for us to
mitigate properly.
• (Bryan Jones) The color map was created using
on-site inspections. The first contract revision
included wetlands delineation and permitting.
The next step required includes performing

supervised clearing of the land. Following
clearing of the land, we will be able to conduct a
more specific on-site inspection in order to detail
the wetlands and the extent to which they cover
the land. On the back of the map is a proposed
layout of contoured land, which accommodates
the wetlands area and storm water retention
needs.
(Brenda Hellyer) We did preliminary inspections
when purchasing this land, but how far should
we have gone with these inspections before the
purchase?
(Randy Sparks) When the College purchased the
property we did Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment. In addressing the wetlands, the
information came off the national inventory
map.
(Brenda Hellyer) What is the difference from a
Nationwide Permit and an Individual Permit?
(Bryan Jones) The Individual Permit takes more
time - up to 18months - to deliver. The
Nationwide Permit requires six to nine months.
(Randy Sparks) If the Nationwide Permit does
not respond in a certain amount of time then you
are approved automatically for a permit. The
Individual Permit takes more money, more time
to a specific site.
(Brenda Hellyer) If it’s under a half acre it goes
into the National Permit? The reason that the
Maritime building went to the Individual Permit
was because it was over a half acre?
(Randy Sparks) Yes, that is correct.
(Brad Hance) Do the wetlands not cover the
entire creek? Is it not deep enough for the
wetlands?
(Randi Sparks) The suspected wetlands
encompass a narrow strip that is about 20 feet
wide on average. On a scale of this size might be
a little wider than 20 feet that we had to be able
to see it. We believe the project will be less than
a half-acre and there’s a 20 foot wide strip at the
bottom of the creek that we won’t be disturbing.
(Brenda Hellyer) While this drawing presents a
concept in addressing the wetlands it is too

preliminary to make such a decision. Is that
correct?
(Bryan Jones) Yes, that is correct. Frank Rizzo
agreed also.
(Brenda Hellyer) Again, it is important to
complete this next phase in order to truly
understand the go-forward plan. We may decide
we can’t afford to give up as much land and look
at more options.
B. Bond Funds – no actions at this time.
V. Projects Updates
A. Financial Reports
1. (Brenda Hellyer) Budget adjustments were made for
Ballroom Audio Upgrade and the Maritime Simulators?
2. (Bryan Jones) Yes, that is correct.
B. Bond Construction Schedule
C. Operating Funds
D. Construction Reports
1. Central Campus Primary Electrical Service Upgrade
• (Frank Rizzo) Last month we requested a change
order cost for the Orangeberg pipe. We are three
months behind due to replacement of that pipe. The
project should be complete in June.
2. Maintenance/Police Building
• (Frank Rizzo) Maintenance/Police building is
complete. Permitting was issued today for the paint
booth and we will start installation on Wednesday,
February 19, 2014. The paint booth will be complete
in six weeks.
3. Central Campus Library Renovation
• (Frank Rizzo) Scheduled completion date projected
is March 27th. The project is working well to date.
4. Central Campus Science Building (parking lot component)
• (Frank Rizzo) We are currently working on the
underground portion of the project. We had to
replace some sanitary sewer and water lines. This
should be complete the end of May 2014.
• (Brenda Hellyer) How many parking places does the
project add?
• (Frank Rizzo) It is approximately 280.

VI. Facility and Infrastructure
Update
Board Building Committee 02/17/2014
Minutes: Jessica Garcia
North Campus Building and Utility Systems Review
• (Ron Rucker) The Burleson Classroom Building was
built in 1979 and the Spencer Administration Building
was built in 1975. The vacated science labs occupy both
buildings.
• (Ron Rucker) In the Burleson Building, we added
ventilation and data outlets in the biology lab in recent
years. There is no audio/visual equipment in the
classrooms. In the chemistry lab, we added data outlets
and a teaching wall during past years. The geology lab
has no teaching technology or audio/visual capabilities.
• (Ron Rucker) In the Spencer Building, the lecture
classroom is outdated with K-12 style desks, pull down
projection screen, and the data/electrical routed along
the surface of the wall. In the physics lab, we had to
bring power poles down from the ceiling to the tables in
order to get power to the teaching stations. The physics
prep room has an electrical panels exposed. In the
chemistry lab, the emergency shower was made out of
PVC pipe and only one fume hood is available for the
building.
• (Brad Hance) In the Spencer Building, is that smoke
stains or mildew on the ceiling?
• (Ron Rucker) No, that is not stains on the ceiling but is
color irregularities on the PowerPoint slide.
• (Ron Rucker) The electrical circuits in the Brightwell
and Wheeler buildings need to be replaced. We have
options to consider for the library. One is to set a new
transformer to feed the library only. The other option is
to get a new transformer with enough capacity to power

the library, Brightwell and Wheeler at the same time.
(Brenda Hellyer) The next programming process is to
access each building. The Brightwell and Wheeler need
major renovation and also there is the electric issue that
came up that needs to be resolved.
(Ricardo Troncoso) We need to replace the electrical
gear at Burleson and Spencer.
(Brenda Hellyer) The North Campus has a tunnel
system. Is that a good system or a system that you see
problems with in the future?
(Ricardo Troncoso) The tunnel is about 7 feet tall and
10 feet wide. The piping is in bad condition, insulation
is peeled off, and there is asbestos in the tunnel. We
would like to find another way to provide service to the
campus instead of using the tunnel.
(Brenda Hellyer) What is the long term?
(Ricardo Troncoso) The long term is about 5-8 years
maximum.
(Ken Lynn) We prepared some cost estimates for a
FEMA grant application back in 2009 and the cost to
remove the utilities from the tunnel was about
$9,000,000.
(Dan Mims) Is there any benefit in having two
transformers?
(Ricardo Troncoso) Yes, there could be but
transformers are unlikely to fail.
(Bryan Jones) The College does annual inspection and
preventive maintenance on electrical systems. We do
diagnostic testing annually.
(Keith Sinor) What would it entail to mitigate the tunnel
situation?
(Ricardo Troncoso) The best option is to abandon the
tunnel.
(Brenda Hellyer) What it the best option for the library?
(Ricardo Troncoso) The best option for the library is to
feed from a new library transformer.
(Frank Rizzo) Provide a transformer with enough
capacity to feed the other two buildings so that we
wouldn’t have to do the other buildings at this point.
(Brenda Hellyer) These estimates for the library
electrical and capacity concerns will be presented when
we discuss the additional budget for the library?
(Bryan Jones) Yes, we will address in the proposed
budget amendment.

Approval of Minutes from the November 19, 2013, Finance Committee Meeting
a. Mr. Moon presented the minutes of the November 19, 2013, Finance Committee
Meeting. The minutes were approved as presented. Motion was made by Larry Wilson
to accept the minutes as presented, seconded by Dan Mims.
b. Mr. Moon turned the meeting over to Kenneth Lynn.
IV.
Review and Discuss Internal Audit Cash Count Observation for South Campus Café
a. Mr. Lynn introduced Linda Torres who presented the next two agenda items.
b. Ms. Torres shared the results of the internal audit cash count observation performed on
November 21, 2013, at the South Campus Café and Pizza Hut/A&W franchise.
c. The day of the audit, only $1,000 of the $1,500 could be verified as $500 was in the safe
that was reported broken that morning. On November 25, 2013, the $500 was verified
immediately after a locksmith gained access to the safe.
d. Only a small net cash shortage of $4.11 was noted with cash collections, which is deemed
immaterial considering the $2,773.51 sales volume for the day.
e. The broken safe could not be repaired; therefore, a new safe will be obtained. In the
meantime, all café funds are sent to the campus business office nightly to be secured
within their safe.
V.
Review and Discuss Internal Audit Cash Count Observation for Central Business Office
a. Linda shared the results of the internal audit cash count observations done on November
20, 2013, at the Central campus business office.
b. The day of the audit the start-up cash of $4,985.00 was verified with two drawers open.
No shortages or overages noted.
c. There were also two unsealed deposit bags relating to business office transactions from
the prior business day (November 19, 2013), which were in the safe waiting to be verified
by two business office employees (the two-person rule).
d. It is typical that the evening cashier works alone during their shift and they verify their
cash drawer proceeds against the Touchnet report at the close each night. They then put
the deposit in an unsealed envelope in the safe until the next morning when a second
verification can be done by another employee. It is now recommended that after the
evening cashier verifies the cash drawer proceeds against the Touchnet report, the cashier
will put the deposit in a sealed tamper-proof bag and will sign this bag and include the
67

date and time. The following morning the bag will be opened in the presence of two
Business Office employees and the contents will be verified and sealed for deposit. This
procedure was immediately implemented.
VI.
Review and Discuss District ORP Supplemental Contributions
a. Steve Trncak shared with the committee details about the grandfathered Optional
Retirement Plan (ORP) and the College’s supplemental contribution to this plan versus
that of the Teacher Retirement System (TRS) plan.
b. Employees who are at the director level or higher have the option to select ORP instead
of TRS during the first 90 days of employment.
c. In the early 1990s the state reduced the ORP contribution rate from 8.5 %, and
institutions were authorized to use local funds or other sources of funds to provide a
supplement to the state base rate for ORP up to a total contribution of 8.5%. Since the
State has been reducing their share over the past years, the College has voluntarily made
up the difference creating an imbalance in contributions between TRS and ORP.
Currently, 20 college districts across the state provide a supplement to the maximum
allowed by the State and 20 others provide less than the maximum contribution.
d. Institutions are not required to provide any supplements. Institutions may provide the
same supplemental rate to all participants or may provide two different rates, one for the
grandfathered group and another for the non-grandfathered group.
e. It is costing the College on average $250,000 per year to provide the difference, which
causes an additional budget concern every year. There are currently 123 employees who
benefit from the supplemental contribution.
f. The recommendation is to reduce the ORP supplement contribution to provide the
difference between the current TRS state contribution of 6.8% and the current ORP state
contribution of 6.6%, or .2% on an annual basis. This would be an anticipated cost of
approximately $36,934.00 based on the current differential in State contributions for
fiscal year 2014-2015. The difference will be reviewed each year as part of the budget
process. The proposal maintains equity between the two retirement systems.
g. This reduction of the ORP contribution will be an agenda item for the March 3, 2014,
Board of Trustees Meeting.
VII.
Review and Discuss Supplemental Annual Financial Statement Format
a. Mr. Lynn shared a new format to the Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in
Net Position annual financial statement for fiscal years 2013 and 2012. This format
change request was made by Dr. Wheeler at a previous meeting. The new format groups
all revenues together and all expenses together, rather than having revenues and expenses
separated according to the Business Type Activity method of financial reporting adopted
by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board during the 2002-2003 fiscal year at
the time GASB 34 was adopted.
b. Also shared and requested by Dr. Wheeler was a chart comparing total salaries, wages,
and benefits as a percentage of the total unrestrictred expenses. The comparison was
prepared for San Jacinto College District and other Texas community colleges similar in
size. The chart shows that the College’s percentage is 72.63% which is comparable to
the other colleges which range from 71.67% to 81.20%.
VIII.
Review and Discuss Proposed Budget Amendment for Property Tax and Tuition and Fee
Revenue
a. Mr. Lynn explained to the committee that the adopted 2013-2014 budget was prepared
68
Finance Committee Meeting Minutes
February 17, 2014
Page 3
using preliminary certified tax rolls values from Harris County Appraisal District.
However, the latest figures anticipate an increase in property tax revenue of $1,300,000.
That increase with a decrease in budgeted tuition and fee revenue of $800,000 causes a
cumulative effect of a net increase of $500,000.
b. There will be an action item on the agenda for the March 3, 2014, Board of Trustees
Meeting to approve an amendment to the 2013-2014 budget. The amendment will
recognize the additional property tax revenue and reduce the revenue budget for tuition
and fees.
c. The amendment will also address that the additional revenue will be spent on one-time
expenses and several support positions. The positions were not funded during the regular
budget process while we waited on more definition around property tax revenue.
Additionally, contingency dollars were moved to cover one-time expenses and costs
associated with interpreters.
IX.
Review and Discuss Proposed Incidental and Lab Fee Changes for Fall 2014
a. The annual review of incidental and lab fees has been concluded by the Instructional
Affairs Committee and their recommendations were reviewed for adoption to be effective
for the Fall 2014 semester.
b. In addition, four fees (subsequently changed to be two fees) were identified that were
included as changes for the Spring 2014 semester that were identified as additional
courses added for Spring 2014. These fees will be included in the approval and will be
retroactive.
c. Approval of these fees will be an action item for the March 3, 2014, Board of Trustees
Meeting.
X.
Review and Discuss TACC Spring 14 Tuition Survey
a. The annual Texas Association of Community Colleges survey of tuition and fees charged
by the 50 community colleges in the state was shared. The survey lists the tuition and
fees charged by each institution for in-district residents, out-of-district residents, and nonresidents for 12-semester credit hours.
b. The survey indicates that the College maintains a very competitive position for our
students in all three residency categories. Fifty-one percent of the College’s enrollment is
in district.
c. Dr. Hellyer briefly talked about the possibility of increasing tuition in the near future for
Fall 2014 implementation.
d. Fiscal Affairs is currently developing a differential tuition model for future discussion,
but it will not be completed and vetted in time for discussion for Fall 14 tuition and fee
adoption discussions.
e. The 10-year history of the College’s tuition and fee rates was shared.
XI.
Review and Discuss Annual Financial Accounting Report Fiscal Year Ending August 2013
Required Communication from Doeren Mayhew
a. The required communications from the auditors was shared outlining the minor
deficiencies that were noted during the audit. The auditors shared this information at the
December Board Workshop.
b. This document will be shared with the full Board at the March 3, 2014, meeting.
XII.
Review and Discuss Wetland Mitigation Extension Agreement
a. An action item on the March Board agenda will be the ratification of the mitigation

Action Item “XIII“
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of Amendment to the 2013-2014 Budget
for Restricted Revenue and Expenses Relating to Federal and State Grants
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees approve an amendment to the 20132014 budget for restricted revenue and expenses related to grants.
BACKGROUND
Federal, state, and local grant activity is ongoing as amendments to currently active grants are
processed and new grants are awarded. In order to fund the objectives of the grants, grant
operating budgets must be established in a timely manner. This request for a budget amendment
reflects the additions to restricted revenues and restricted expenses as a result of amendments
and new awards received during the month of February 2014.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
Approval of the budget amendment will allow the College’s staff to implement the programs in
accordance with the requirements of the additionally funded award amounts.
BUDGET INFORMATION (INCLUDING ANY STAFFING IMPLICATIONS)
Restricted revenues and restricted expenses will each be increased by $135,709, so the net
impact on the College budget is zero.
MONITORING AND REPORTING TIMELINE
The Office of Grants Management provides continuous monitoring of grant operations, which
are included in the annual financial report to the Board of Trustees.

March 3, 2014 Board Book – Grant Amendments Detail List
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services/Texas Education Agency/University of Houston
Health Science Center/Children's Learning Institute - Improving Teacher Preparation (New
Grant)
In the state of Texas, the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) are taught to the
students in public schools and they contain knowledge and skills that will be taught in each
course. Within each chapter of the TEKS are Career and Technical Education subchapters which
are divided into several clusters. Two of the clusters that pertain to early childhood education
are Human Services and Education and Training. High school teachers can be certified to teach
several of these clusters depending upon their degrees and concentration of majors. The grant
funds will be used to work through the certification eligibility and process of certifying a high
school teacher. A faculty member of San Jacinto Community College will join the process to
teach the Student Learning Outcomes class.
Texas Workforce Commission/Brazosport College/San Jacinto College - Brazosport College in
Partnership with Dow Chemical Company (Additional Funds)
The Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) Skills Development Fund is a job–training program
that provides training dollars for Texas businesses and workers. Success is achieved through
collaboration among businesses, public community and technical colleges, local workforce
development boards, and economic development partners. A consortium of businesses or a trade
union identifies a training need, and then partners with a public community or technical college
to fill its specific needs. The business entities work with college partners to submit proposals,
develop curricula and conduct training. The TWC Skills Development Fund pays for the
training. The college administers the grant, and businesses will create new jobs and improve the
skills of their current workers. This grant is funded to Brazosport College. San Jacinto College
is a sub-recipient of Brazosport and will perform some of the training. The grant was extended
and additional funds were supplied to complete the training.
Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board - Cost Effectiveness of a Common Application
Form for Nursing - Nursing Innovations Program (New Grant)
The grant seeks representatives from eligible institutions of higher education to participate in the
analysis of adopting a common application form for nursing students. The selected
representative will represent San Jacinto Community College District in formal and informal
discussions, provide information pertinent to the project, and travel to Austin and other possible
sites for one or more meetings during the grant period. The costs of the travel to attend projectrelated meetings would be reimbursed by the grant.
The Higher Education Coordinating Board - Professional Nursing Shortage Reduction Program Under 70 program, Central Campus (Reduction of funds)
This program is designed to achieve the following outcomes: 1) increase the number of graduates
from professional nursing programs, 2) increase the percentage of students in professional
nursing programs that graduate within a reasonable time as determined by the board, and 3)
increase the number of graduates from master’s and doctoral programs in nursing that join the
faculty of a professional nursing program. San Jacinto College Central Nursing did not meet the
Attachment 2 – Grant Detail – 03-03-14

graduation rate required by the grant so funds were reduced. The total grant award was $100,000
and has been reduced to $95,477.
Manpower Demonstration Research Corporation (MDRC) - Aid Like a Paycheck Pilot Program
(New Grant)
Instead of giving low-income college students their financial aid in a lump sum, the Aid Like a
Paycheck Pilot Program disburses the money every two weeks in an effort to help promote
academic success and smart financial management. A new paper released by the nonprofit
research organization MDRC analyzes the new "Aid Like a Paycheck" project launched by the
Institute for College Access and Success in 2009. It was designed to encourage students to think
of school as a job in which regular attendance and effort are rewarded. The hope was also to
entice students to stay in school, since their aid was tied to continued enrollment. Houston
Endowment has funded San Jacinto College to pilot this program. If successful in the pilot the
project will be considered for scale up.
Robert Woods Johnson Foundation/University of Texas Health Science Center – Summer
Medical & Dental Education Program (SMDEP) (Year 5 - Additional Funds)
The RWJF SMDEP seeks talented and motivated students from a variety of backgrounds
including those who are underrepresented or underserved who are interested in pursuing a career
in dentistry or medicine, including those who have an interest in serving the underserved. The
mission of SMDEP is to assist students in enhancing their knowledge, skills, and attitudes to
make them more competitive and to improve their chances of becoming successful applicants to
a medical or dental school of their choice.
Charles Koch Foundation – Grant to Promote Entrepreneurship (New Grant)
The Charles Koch Foundation adheres to the idea that economic freedom drives prosperity, and
the study of it is vital to the continued progress of society. Through grant-giving, the Foundation
aims to advance an understanding of how economic freedom improves the well-being of people
around the world. The Foundation also provides opportunities that allow people to learn more
about economic freedom and contribute to its advancement. The grant project is sponsoring a
reading discussion on the North campus.
Dow Chemical Co. - Dow Cares - Plus 50 Computer Literacy Program (New Grant)
The focus of this award is to train a special population of students who are over 50 years of age
with basic computer skills. The fund also allows for a part-time tutor to work one-on –one with
students who are struggling with the concepts taught during the class period.

Action Item “XIV”
Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of a Grandfathered Optional Retirement Program (ORP)
Supplemental Contribution Change for September 2014
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends the approval of a proposed Optional Retirement Program (ORP)
supplemental contribution change for all participants effective September 2014.
BACKGROUND
The State of Texas (State) has two retirement programs: Texas Retirement System (TRS) and
the Optional Retirement Program (ORP). Participation in the ORP plan depends on position
(faculty and those above the director level are eligible), and an election must be made by the
employee within the first 90 days of employment.
During a legislative session in the early 1990’s, the state ORP contribution rate was lowered
from 8.5 % to 7.31%. At that time, institutions were authorized to use local funds or other
sources of funds to provide a supplement to the state base rate allowing for a total employer
contribution of 8.5%. Over time the State contribution has varied and institutions selecting to
supplement had varied contributions from 1.19% to 2.50% to maintain the maximum 8.5%
contribution.
San Jacinto College began contributing the difference for employees participating in the ORP
at the time of the legislative change. Those employees participating in the plan since 1995
have been considered grandfathered and higher contributions have continued for this group.
Many other colleges made the election to contribute at the maximum allowable ORP limit or
at some additional amount less than the ORP maximum amount. Institutions are not required
to provide any supplement or continue any supplements. Institutions may provide the same
supplemental rate to all participants or may provide two different rates, one for the
grandfather group and another for the non-grandfather group.
A participant is in the institution’s grandfathered group if he/she first started participating in
ORP at any Texas public institution of higher education prior to September 1, 1995, whether
or not the participant subsequently changed ORP employers or had a break in service with
the same ORP employer. San Jacinto College does not provide ORP supplemental
contributions to employees hired by San Jacinto College who become a grandfathered ORP
participant at another Texas public institution of higher education.
For San Jacinto College, the difference in the grandfathered ORP contribution has created an
imbalance and inequity in contributions over the years. The grandfathered ORP participants
have received greater contributions than the non-grandfathered ORP participants and the
TRS group. In some years, the non-grandfathered ORP participants have received less
contribution than the TRS group. For example, during fiscal year 2012-2013, nongrandfathered ORP participants received a combined state and college contribution of 6.0%
versus 8.5% for grandfathered ORP participants and 6.4% for TRS participants.
76
Action Item “XIV”
Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of a Grandfathered Optional Retirement Program (ORP)
Supplemental Contribution Change for September 2014
The imbalance and impact for fiscal year 2013-2014 is shown below:
•
Summary of ORP contributions (not grandfathered)
Employee contribution at 6.65%
State contribution at 6.0%
Total = 12.65%
•
Summary of ORP contributions (grandfathered )
Employee contribution at 6.65%
State contribution at 6.07%
Additional contribution by College at 2.5%
Total = 15.15%
•
Summary of TRS contributions
Employee contribution at 6.65%
State contribution at 6.0%
Total = 12.65%
For the past three fiscal years the ORP grandfathered supplement resulted in additional
average annual contributions of approximately $250,000. Currently there are 123 employees
who are receiving the grandfathered supplement.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
Approval by the Board of Trustees will provide the College the ability to provide an ORP
supplemental contribution to all grandfathered and non-grandfathered participants of the
ORP plan, thus providing for a continuing equitable resolution for fiscal year 2014-2015.
Additionally, the ORP supplemental contribution will be set to the TRS contribution in order
to obtain consistency between the plans. For 2014-2015, this will be accomplished by
reducing the ORP supplemental contribution to provide the difference between the proposed
TRS state contribution of 6.8% and the proposed ORP state contribution of 6.6% or .2% on
an annual basis. This would be an anticipated cost of approximately $37,000 based off the
current differential in state contributions for fiscal year 2014-2015 using 2014 salary rates.
BUDGET INFORMATION
Going forward the ORP supplement will be reviewed and approved annually in the budget
process. The impact of this change will be built into the 2014-2015 budget.

Action Item “XV”
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of a Ratification of
Extension of Maritime Wetlands Mitigation Purchase
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees ratify the actions of the Vice
Chancellor of Fiscal Affairs in executing the Mitigation Option Agreement Amendment
(extension) for offset credit necessary to develop land containing wetlands on the proposed
site of the Maritime Training Center.
BACKGROUND
The land purchased for construction of a Maritime Training Center along the Bayport Ship
Channel has been found to contain jurisdictional wetlands as defined by the US
Environmental Protection Agency. During the course of assessment by the project civil
engineering firm of Brooks and Sparks Engineers, it was determined that approximately 2.24
acres of jurisdictional wetlands met the criteria requiring mitigation. In order to pursue
further development, credits must be purchased from an approved wetlands bank that meets
the criteria for offset. The authorized bank chosen for mitigation of these wetlands is owned
by Regent Sienna Plantation Partnership, L.P. in Fort bend County, Texas.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
The process of finalizing the purchase of mitigating credits through the wetlands bank and
subsequent approvals through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and other agencies is a
process that could take 18 to 24 months to complete. Approval to negotiate and execute a
contract for purchase of wetlands credits was approved by the Board of Trustees at a regular
called meeting on January 28, 2013. The contract that was subsequently executed pursuant to
that authorization was due to expire on February 5, 2014. The Vice Chancellor of Fiscal
Affairs, on February 3, 2014, executed a one-year extension of that agreement to allow time
for the mitigation permit to be approved by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
BUDGET INFORMATION (INCLUDING ANY STAFFING IMPLICATIONS)
No budget impact for the extension.
MONITORING AND REPORTING TIMELINE
Periodic updates will be provided to the Board of Trustees.

Action Item “XVI“
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of a Budget Amendment For
Property Tax Revenue and Tuition and Fee Revenue
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees approve an amendment to the 20132014 budget to recognize additional property tax revenue and to reduce the revenue budget
for tuition and fees.
BACKGROUND
Property Tax Revenue
The 2013-2014 College budget was approved by the Board on August 5, 2013. The budget
for property tax revenue adopted in August was based on the preliminary certified tax roll
value of $40.113B taxable assessed value (TAV) and an estimated Maintenance &
Operations (M&O) tax rate of $0.125377.
In September 2013, the certified tax rolls were received from Harris County with a certified
TAV of $40.085B, very close to the preliminary certified values upon which the budget was
adopted. However, 29% of the certified TAV was under protest or in process, so the ultimate
collection value was uncertain. Based on the significance of the uncertainty, the Board
adopted the 2013 M&O tax rate on October 3, 2013, at $0.125460 per $100 of valuation.
The slight increase in the M&O tax rate was offset by an equal decrease in the debt service
tax rate thus keeping the total tax rate the same as the previous year.
As property tax protests are closed and in-progress items are resolved, the certified tax rolls
are updated. Currently, four updates on certified TAV have been received from Harris
County. The certified roll as of December 6, 2013, was $41.9B. The increase of $1.9B is due
to uncertified and in-progress values converting to certified values at greater than a 1:1 ratio.
Because of the increased value, revenue is estimated to be $1.3 million higher than originally
budgeted.
The increase in certified values is not considered to be a one-time adjustment but is largely
based on the strong economic conditions of the region.
Tuition and Fee Revenue
Preliminary estimates used during budget adoption anticipated an approximate 2% increase
in headcount and semester credit hours for the 2013-2014 academic year. The combination of
increases added approximately $800,000 to the projected revenue budget.
The Fall 2013 semester registration resulted in a 0.6% increase in headcount and a decrease
in funded contact hours of 0.2%; the combination being essentially no change in revenue
projections. The Spring 2014 semester registration counts as of February 27, 2014, report
86
Action Item “XVI“
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of a Budget Amendment For
Property Tax Revenue and Tuition and Fee Revenue
unduplicated headcount with a decrease of 0.2% and a contact hour decrease of 1.2%,
compared to Spring 2013. Based on the current enrollment levels, it is recommended that the
anticipated $800,000 tuition and fee revenue increase be eliminated in this budget
amendment.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
Approval of this 2013-2014 budget amendment by the Board of Trustees will allow the
College’s budget to reflect the anticipated increase in property tax revenue of $1,300,000 and
a decrease in budgeted tuition and fee revenue of $800,000. The cumulative effect is a net
increase of $500,000.
BUDGET INFORMATION
The 2013-2014 unrestricted budget of the College will be increased by $500,000. During the
2013-2014 budget development process, items were put on hold until the property tax
revenue was determined to be more stable. Over the past months, those on-hold requests
were prioritized and various resources were reallocated. Based on the additional resources, a
variety of priorities will be funded including select positions, equipment purchases, and
additional costs related to services for hearing impaired students.
MONITORING AND REPORTING TIMELINE
Property tax revenue and tuition and fee revenue are subject to audit by the independent
external auditors for the College.

Action Item “XVII“
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval to Modify Incidental & Lab Fees
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees approve modifications to the
College’s incidental and lab fee schedule to be effective for the Spring 2014 and Fall 2014
semesters.
BACKGROUND
The proposed fee changes have been recommended and approved through the Fall 2013
curriculum process. All curriculum revisions including incidental and laboratory fees are
reviewed and approved by campus instructional affairs committees, the instruction and
student services council, and the Provosts.
New fees are either due to new course offerings or additional course requirements that
necessitated establishment of new fees. Fees modifications result from either reduced lab
requirements, changes in accreditation requirements or increases in certification fees charged
on a headcount basis. In some cases, previously charged fees are no longer required and a
recommendation is being made to remove them.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
Adoption of the fee recommendations will establish new course fees, modify existing fees, or
delete existing fees. The majority of the fees are effective with the Fall 2014 semester. Two
fees went into effect Spring 2014 and are being approved retroactively.
BUDGET INFORMATION (INCLUDING ANY STAFFING IMPLICATIONS)
The net effect of the recommended fee changes will have a minimal impact on the 2013-2014
operating budget and no budget adjustment is required because of this recommendation.
Revenue for fees effective Fall 2014 will be built into the 2014-2015 budget. There are no
staffing implications to this recommendation.

Action Item “XVIII”
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Informational Item – Review of Guideline 3-24
for Policy VI-GG: Substantive Change
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
This is an informational item (requiring no action) for the Board of Trustees regarding review
of Guideline 3-24 for Policy VI-GG: Substantive Change.
BACKGROUND
Policy VI-GG was approved by the Board of Trustees on July 15, 2013. This policy reflects
the substantive change requirements of the Southern Association of College and Schools
Commission on Colleges. While the Board of Trustees does not approve guidelines related to
the implementation of a policy, it was determined at the time of approval that those
guidelines would be brought back to the Board of Trustees at a subsequent time as an
informational item.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
The guideline for policy VI-GG has been developed and is considered effective immediately.
The guideline includes training, internal reporting, review, and a recommendation along with
guidance on the nature of changes. Finally, a Substantive Change Report Form has been
developed to assist with the reporting of substantive changes.
BUDGET INFORMATION
No budgetary impact.
MONITORING AND REPORTING TIMELINE
The Board will be notified of any changes that require its action.

SAN JACINTO COLLEGE
GUIDELINE
GENERAL INSTITUTIONAL GUIDELINES
3-24 Substantive Change Guideline
1. Training
Through comprehensive and regular training of key employees, plus timely and accurate
reporting to the Strategic Leadership Team (SLT), San Jacinto College will comply with the
SACSCOC policies on substantive change.
The SACSCOC Liaison will hold periodic training on substantive change policies of the
commission. The target audience for the training will be department chairs, deans, directors of
dual credit, Vice President for Distance Education, Vice President for Continuing and
Professional Development, and leaders of the curriculum development process. The content of
this training will be the basic requirements for SACSCOC prior notice and prior approval for
substantive changes in programs and teaching sites. The table below summarizes the topics that
require prior notice or approval.
2. Internal Reporting
Timely and accurate internal reporting will happen through a process whereby college
administration will send these changes that may require prior notice or approval to the SLT
through the SACSCOC Liaison.
3. Review
The SACSCOC Liaison will convene a task force to consider the suggested substantive
changes. The task force will include administrators who are familiar with recent curriculum
changes, recent changes in off campus teaching locations, recent program proposals from the
Workforce and Economic Development Council, provosts, and other officials who will have
direct knowledge of substantive changes.
4. Recommendation
After the consideration of the possible substantive change by the task force, the SACSCOC
Liaison will make a recommendation to the Deputy Chancellor/President of the College and
prepare a draft letter, program notification, and relevant prospectuses, as required. The Deputy
Chancellor/President of the College will then present recommendations to the Chancellor (or
SLT). The Board of Trustees will be informed by the Chancellor of any items requiring action by
the Board.

Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval to Renew Contract for Commercial Truck Repair Services
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the renewal of commercial
truck repair services with Crosby Mechanical Services, Inc.
BACKGROUND
An invitation to bid, Project Number 12-05, was issued in December 2011 to procure
commercial truck repair services for the College. The Board approved a contract with
Crosby Mechanical Services in February 2012.
Due to the age of the College’s commercial truck fleet, which ranges from 1988 to 2004,
equipment maintenance and repair is required monthly by certified personnel to ensure they
are operational and safe for use. Crosby Mechanical has a long history with the College and
has gone above and beyond normal duties to help maintain the College’s fleet to meet
instructional purposes.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
Approval of this renewal will provide repair services on an as-needed basis for the tractor
trailers used by the Commercial Truck Driving program as part of their training and degree
program. Renewal of this contract will ensure the College’s trucks are safe for use on public
streets and students can continue their instruction.
BUDGET INFORMATION (INCLUDING ANY STAFFING IMPLICATIONS)
The estimated annual expenditure for this commodity is $80,000. This expenditure will be
funded by the CPD Commercial Truck Driving department’s 2013-2014 operating budgets and
subsequent year budget, subject to approval by the Board.
MONITORING AND REPORTING TIMELINE
This renewal will exercise the final one-year renewal option available in the contract. The
new term contract will be February 6, 2014 through February 5, 2015.

Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval to Renew Contract for Snack Vending Services
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees approve a renewal of the contract for
snack vending services from McLiff Vending and Office Coffee Service.
BACKGROUND
A request for proposals, Project Number 09-25 was issued in 2009 to provide snack vending
services for the College. The Board approved the original contract with McLiff Vending and
Office Coffee in April 2009. Vending services are managed by the Auxiliary Services
department and are structured as a revenue-generating service contract.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
Mcliff has proven to be both a responsive and responsible vendor. They respond timely to
vending issues which occur on the campuses and consistently strive to expand their customer
base which results in additional revenue generated for the College. Since the initial contract
award they have proactively updated many of their machines to include card readers which
can accept credit and debit card payments and allows them to remain competitive with the
other snack and beverage providers on campuses, i.e., Barnes and Noble, Starbucks, and food
services outlets. Changing the College’s snack vending provider would entail the removal
and exchange of all the existing vendor-owned equipment requiring significant logistical
planning on the part of college staff and probable disruptions in service to our students.
BUDGET INFORMATION (INCLUDING ANY STAFFING IMPLICATIONS)
In 2012, the Auxiliary Service Department completed an analysis comparing vending
machine commissions earned to the equivalent number of full time students at each college.
The results amongst the six community colleges analyzed, showed San Jacinto College in the
top three, with the two higher-ranking colleges having more campuses, more square footage
and more vending machines on campus. Based on historical data, the projected annual
contract revenue for 2013-2014 is $61,000.
MONITORING AND REPORTING TIMELINE
This renewal will exercise the first of five one-year contract renewal options available. The
extended contract term will be April 13, 2014 through April 12, 2015.

Purchase Request #3
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of Additional Funds for Site Development Services
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees approve additional funding and scope
of work for land development services from Brooks & Sparks on the 23.8 acre parcel located
west of Uvalde Road, and across from the North Campus.
BACKGROUND
The 23.8 acre parcel under discussion is located west of Uvalde between Hamblen Drive and
Wallisville Road. The land was purchased in April 2010 to provide for future expansion of
the North Campus. Pursuant to a proposed development program, investigations are required
to determine the specific requirements necessary to allow for construction of College
facilities on the land.
The College is considering constructing a new vocational/technical training facility. Demand
for classes such as diesel engine technology, welding technology, pipefitting, and other
industrial offerings are increasing significantly. Additionally, the existing facilities located on
the northeast perimeter of the North Campus are reaching end of useful life.
At the March 4, 2013 regular Board meeting, approval was granted for the contract to
conduct investigation and activities related to site development for the 23.8 acre property.
On May 5, 2013, an amendment to the contract was approved by the Board to include
additional services related to site development and investigation.
The services included in the current contract are for site development and related
investigations. The services include but are not limited to, metes and bounds surveys,
acquisition of all pertinent plans, filing platting documents with Harris County, investigating
right-of-ways and easements, determining steps necessary to assure local utilities are
deliverable and available, working with Harris County on traffic study and control solutions,
wetlands delineation and mitigation activities, and developing basic plans for physical
development of the land.
When the property was purchased, the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment identified
wetlands. As the site development work has continued, it became obvious that additional
investigation needed to be conducted especially since the tract is densely vegetated. It was
determined that the appropriate next step is for supervised underbrush clearing to occur in
order to allow access to the entire surface area of the tract and to prepare the tract for a
nationwide wetlands permitting process. Because of the existence of documented national
register wetlands, an on-site biologist will supervise underbrush clearing of approximately 20
acres of the property. This additional scope of work will provide for detailed wetlands
identification, mapping, and set the path for a permitting plan.
Underbrush clearing is a necessary step to properly develop the property. Standing timber
will not be disturbed until a master use plan of the tract is developed after determination of
site footprints and access features.

Purchase Request #3
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of Additional Funds for Site Development Services
Professional engineering services are defined as professional services in Section 2254 of the
Texas Government Code and are exempt from competitive bidding per Section 44.031(f) of
the Texas Education Code.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
Completion of this land site clearing and biological investigation will allow for progress in
developing plans for future expansion of the instructional complex at the North Campus.
BUDGET INFORMATION (INCLUDING ANY STAFFING IMPLICATIONS)
The current approved expenditure for this project is $158,830. Additional funding in the
amount of $59,500 is requested, bringing the total contract value to $218,330. This
expenditure will be funded through College operating funds.
MONITORING AND REPORTING TIMELINE
This project will be monitored by College’s Facilities & Construction personnel and is
expected to require Two-Hundred Twenty-Five (225) calendar days to complete.

Consideration of Approval of a
Contract for 2015 College-wide Building Program
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees approve a contract with Rizzo &
Associates, LLC to conduct services for the development of the San Jacinto College District
2015 College-wide Building Program.
BACKGROUND
San Jacinto College is in the midst of its 2008 Bond Program. This program has been largely
focused on new facilities based on the last master planning effort that was conducted from
2005 through 2008. The College is at a point where it needs to reassess its current facilities
and how those facilities are meeting the current and future needs of its student and
community constituents. The College has 67 buildings comprising more than 2.6 million
square feet of space. Thirty-eight of those facilities, encompassing approximately 1.4 million
square feet, are more than 30 years old and nine of those facilities are actually 45 years old or
older. As the educational needs and expectations continue to change, these facilities are not
equipped to meet the needs of our constituents. Many of these facilities may have reached
their useful life in terms of mechanical systems, instructional obsolescence, and capacity. A
detailed in-depth assessment of each of these facilities is needed in order to determine the
most economical and cost beneficial approach for renovation versus demolition and building
new.
Additionally, the College has recently completed a utilization study and is constantly looking
at enrollment trends and potential new programs. This information, along with the 2013
demographic study, will guide and inform the 2015 College-wide Building Program and its
outcomes. Additionally, a broad-based group of faculty, staff, and administrators will be
engaged in an interactive process to assess and validate facility needs.
Finally, as part of this work Rizzo & Associates, LLC will work with an appointed team of
maintenance and construction personnel designated to review and upgrade standards for the
construction and renovation of college facilities. These standards will incorporate the lessons
learned from the 2008 Bond Program including the development of architectural and exterior
construction guidance by campus, classroom and lecture room standards, and green building
methodology.
The services provided by Rizzo & Associates, LLC under this contract are considered
professional services as defined by Section 2254 of the Texas Government Code and are
exempt from competitive bidding per Section 44.031 (f) of the Texas Education Code. Both
partners of Rizzo & Associates, LLC have worked with the College through the planning and
program management of its last two building programs. Their history and past performance
with San Jacinto College provides a significant advantage in their ability to assess and
develop the components of the comprehensive 2015 College-wide Building Program in the
proposed timeline.

Purchase Request #4
Regular Board Meeting March 3, 2014
Consideration of Approval of a
Contract for 2015 College-wide Building Program
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
The completion of the 2015 College-wide Building Program will provide a comprehensive
plan of the prioritized need for new or renovated facilities and infrastructure that support the
educational and support programs of each campus and the college as a whole. This plan will
provide the basis for the Board of Trustees to determine the cost and financing requirements
of the College’s building program and determination of a bond election. Additionally, this
plan will meet requirements established by the Southern Association of College and Schools
Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) to assess if the institution has adequate physical
reserves to support the mission of the institution and the scope of its programs and
services.
BUDGET INFORMATION (INCLUDING ANY STAFFING IMPLICATIONS)
The total cost of the contract with Rizzo & Associates, LLC is $175,000. Additional costs
are anticipated as consultants such as engineers and architects are needed to assist with
assessment and recommendations. Such consultants will be contracted with on an as needed
basis and must be approved by the Chancellor in advance. Requests for such approvals will
be brought to the Board of Trustees as required by state law and the College’s purchasing
requirements. This request will be funded from the fiscal year 2014 and fiscal year 2015
operating budgets of Facilities and Construction and the Vice Chancellor of Fiscal Affairs.
MONITORING AND REPORTING TIMELINE
Regular updates will be made to the Board’s Building Committee and periodic updates to the
full Board. It is anticipated that work and preliminary review will begin in April 2014 and
will continue through January 2015 with final reports to the Board of Trustees in June 2015.

Re:
2015 College-wide Building Program
San Jacinto College District
Dear Dr. Hellyer,
The following is Rizzo & Associates, LLC proposal for development of the San Jacinto College District 2015
College-wide Building Program.
Our Team of Professionals
• Rizzo & Associates
o Frank Rizzo, Partner
o Ron Rucker, Partner
Our team will report directly to the Chancellor for this project. The Associate Vice Chancellor for
Facilities and Construction will be expected to be fully engaged and informed and attend all meetings
on the project. The Vice Chancellor of Fiscal Affairs will work closely with the Chancellor and Rizzo
& Associates and will need to understand all fiscal aspects of the project.
•
Outside Consultants
If outside consultants are needed, they will only be hired after consultation with Chancellor Hellyer.
Those listed below are recommended because of their expertise in their field and their long-standing
knowledge of and familiarity with, the College’s facilities:
o ACR Engineers, Mechanical Engineers
o Bay Architects
o Building Exterior Solutions
o Walter P. Moore, Structural Engineers
o Brooks & Sparks Engineers
o Others that may be determined
Goal for the 2015 College-wide Building Program
Develop a comprehensive College-wide Building Program outlining the prioritized need for new or renovated
facilities and infrastructure that support the educational and support programs of each campus and the
college as a whole.
Objectives of the 2015 College-wide Building Program
• New Construction
Based on the educational programs and instructional needs throughout the San Jacinto College
District, identify the requirements for new construction or additions to existing facilities.
1
1058
•
Campus Site Development
Study and analyze current campus sites
o Review placement of current buildings
o Identify future building sites for each campus
o Identify buildings deemed for demolition and those which may provide future building sites
for development on a particular campus
•
Renovation
Identify and prioritize the need for renovation of the College’s existing facilities:
o Because of the number of aging facilities on each campus, an in-depth analysis of each
facility will be performed
o The process will include validating and updating the current facility assessments for each
building to determine if it is more economical or cost beneficial to renovate or to demolish
and build new
o Assess the instructional and student support obsolescence of the facilities
o A prioritization of buildings on each campus needing renovation and a sequencing of work
will be developed
All of the College’s present buildings cannot be renovated at once, nor can all of them be renovated
in one single bond measure.
•
Infrastructure
Involves the following elements:
o High Voltage/Electrical
o HVAC
o Technology
 Fiber
 Data
 Communication
 Audio Visual
o Gas
o Water/Waste Water
o Life Safety
o Storm System
These elements play a major role in the design and operation of any new facility and in determining
the remaining life of current facilities. During the renovation study, these elements will be critical in
developing and prioritizing renovation projects.
•
Civil Work
Identify and prioritize the need for new site work for a respective campus and would encompass:
o Parking Lots
o Drainage
o Detention
o Roads and Entries
•
Standards Manuals
San Jacinto College has made progress in standardization on constructing and renovating College
Facilities. These are living documents that need to be updated. Currently, the College Construction
Department has in place:
o Process for justification of a new facility
o Process for the construction of a new facility
o Process for defining instructional requirements for a new facility
o Standards manual for new construction
o Standardization of furniture for classrooms and offices
o Standards for interior finishes and a color palate for new or renovation construction. (Need
to enforce the usage of these finishes and color palate among all design firms)
o Commissioning process for all new facilities
2
1069
Future standardization needs:
o Need to better define and coordinate the exterior construction of new facilities to
aesthetically blend with the existing architecture on each campus
o Need to standardize the size of instructional areas, referring primarily to general purpose
lecture-type rooms
o It is suggested the College standardize the size of:
 32 seat classroom
 36 seat classroom
 60 seat tiered lecture room
 90 seat tiered lecture room
 Others as defined by the end user team
o Standardize all instructional technology/audio visual equipment, not just in new facilities, but
in building renovations, as well. (With regard to technology, faculty members should be able
to walk into any classroom and be exposed to the same type of equipment and instructional
methodology).
o Green building standards (Incorporate smart design and green building methodology into
current College standards).
Building Program Planning
San Jacinto College will furnish Rizzo & Associates all current relevant data the College has through its
Instructional Research Office or any special studies conducted in-house or by other consultants regarding,
but not limited to:
• Enrollment by campus
• List of technical programs by campus and enrollment for each
• List of any plans for new programs (and for what campus)
• Any demographic or utilization studies that have been developed since the 2009 Master Plan
• Any plans for expanding college locations, where located, and types of programs to be offered.
• Any additional information that will be beneficial in moving the 2015 College-wide Building Program
forward in a comprehensive and coordinated manner.
Implementation Procedures
The planning of the 2015 College-wide Building Program will involve working with a broad-based group of
individuals, including faculty, staff, and administrators in an interactive planning process, as well as, working
closely with the Board Building Committee and the Board, as a whole.
• Kick-Off Meeting
Conduct a workshop comprised of College administrators which will be the 2015 College-wide
Building Program Committee. (See Attachment A)
First:
o
o
o
Discuss overall plans, goals and objectives of the 2015 College-wide Building Program
Have a clear understanding by all parties of the elements of the building program
Come to an understanding of who the major participants will be for the program
Example:
The need for new construction will be driven by College personnel, all guided by instructional
and student support needs and enrollment and utilization justifications.
The need for renovation will be driven by College personnel to meet instructional and
student support needs including enrollment and utilization justifications, along with the
involvement of maintenance/construction personnel.
The need for infrastructure and civil work will be driven by analysis and study by
maintenance/construction personnel and in some instances, the need for outside resources.
3
10
107
Second:
o Review and refine the goals that San Jacinto College identified for new facilities that were
developed in the College’s last Master Plan.
Third:
o
•
Begin discussion on the perceived needs for new facilities or renovations (even though this
is in the early stages) Note: These perceived needs must be justified by enrollment,
utilization, and other data.
Campus In-Put for New Construction
Rizzo & Associates will facilitate meetings to assist in collecting additional input from each campus
following the kick-off meeting with the 2015 College-wide Building Program Committee. We will
request that each Campus Building Committee (see Attachment B) gather information from their
departments requesting input for new facilities or renovations. Rizzo & Associates will compile this
information and facilitate a strategy for facility needs, whether it is for new construction or
renovations.
Any request for a new facility must include data driven justification for the facility before it will be
carried forward. Research will be conducted to justify these needs, determine facility requirements,
and begin the process of estimating a project budget.
This list of recommended requests for new and renovated facilities by the Campus Building
Committee will then be taken back to the 2015 College-wide Building Program Committee to discuss
and prioritize their requests.
•
Site Analysis
Once the list of new facilities is finalized, an analysis of site development for each campus will be
conducted to identify sites for new buildings and identify future building sites on each campus.
•
Renovation/Building Assessment/Infrastructure
Concurrently, a team composed of maintenance/construction personnel will be assembled to update
the current assessment report on all existing buildings (excluding those built in the 1999 & 2008
Bond Programs). This will require the services of staff, as well as ACR Engineering, BES
Consultants, and any other consultant that may be required.
A major portion of the building assessment data will identify the infrastructure needs for any building
which is a candidate for renovation.
An additional assessment will have to be conducted for any major infrastructure work needed on a
campus, outside of the facilities themselves.
•
Civil Work
Related to construction of new facilities and site analysis, various elements of civil work will have to
be identified for parking lot considerations, storm drainage, and impact on detention.
•
Updating Standards Manuals
Rizzo & Associates will work with an appointed team of maintenance and construction personnel
designated to review and upgrade standards for the construction and renovation of San Jacinto
College facilities.

• 2013 - $926,916 (net increase)
• 2012 - $8,854,182 (net increase)
• Difference - $(7,927,266)
The decline in the net increase at this point in time
is due to multiple changes related to revenue and
expenses.
Major Changes in Revenue – Unrestricted

- $1.6 million (recorded during the year
versus at year-end which is what has been
done in the past; increase in allowance was
budgeted)
2
116
Major Changes in Expenses – Unrestricted
• Instruction
- Increase - $1.5 million (combination of
salary, benefit increases, and outside
provider for CPD grant activity)
• Institutional Support
- Increase - $1.1 million (salary and benefit
increase along with Banner Improvement
Project, advertising and equipment
software purchases)
• Physical Plant
- Increase - $.5 million (timing on custodial
payment, increase in insurance and
construction)
• Student Services
- Increase - $.4 million (increase in salaries
and benefits)
Major Changes in Expenses – Other Fund
Types
- Increase - $2.9 million (due to depreciation,
interest expense, and scholarships)
All expense increases were budgeted.
VIII.
Enrollment Update
Brenda Hellyer gave an update on enrollment.
Using the Texas Association of Community
Colleges (TACC) survey for spring 2014
preliminary enrollment (including fall flex entry)
San Jacinto College is up .3% in headcount and
1.8% in contact hours compared to State averages
of 1.2% decline in headcount and .1% in contact
hours. Two large colleges had not reported at this
time.
Comparing spring 2014 term enrollment (without
fall flex entry) our headcount is up .7% and contact
hours are down .7%.
IX.
Interpreting Services
Discussion
For fiscal year 2014, a plan was developed to hire
interpreters rather than contracting those services.
This plan was developed to reduce costs and
provide for more flexibility in scheduling. The
positions have been posted but we have not been
able to fill due to finalists wanting much higher
salaries than we are offering. We have been forced
3
117
to continue with the contractor and purchase
request #1 is requested to increase the contract
amount.
The budget will be moved from salaries to cover a
portion of the increase. Additionally, funds will be
reallocated from other sources to cover the
additional costs related to increased services.
The level of services has increased because of the
number of students being served has increased. For
fiscal year 2012-2013, 48 students were served
versus currently at 52 for 2013-2014 with summer
still to go.

Regular Board Meeting March 3, 3014
Consideration of Budget Transfers
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION/REPORT
The Chancellor recommends that the Board of Trustees approve budget transfers for 20132014 which have been made in accordance with State accounting procedures.
BACKGROUND
Adoption of the budget by the Board of Trustees in August of each year serves as the
authorization to expend funds for the next fiscal year. The budget is adopted by functional
classification (or cost elements: Instruction, Academic Support, Student Services,
Institutional Support, and Operation and Maintenance of Plant) as defined by the National
Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO). Realizing that the
budget is a viable document that reflects the evolving needs of the College in terms of
meeting goals and objectives, occasional movement of budgeted funds between cost elements
is desirable and warranted. The budget transfers under consideration represent previously
authorized expenditures that are requested to be reclassified from one cost element to another
cost element.
IMPACT OF THIS ACTION
Approval of the budget transfers will allow the College to more effectively utilize existing
resources in fulfilling its instructional objectives.
BUDGET INFORMATION (INCLUDING ANY STAFFING IMPLICATIONS)
None – reclassification of existing authorizations.
