GENERAL:
1. Review of CR/I Budget
Stephen Pruch briefly went over the one-page Capital Repair/Improvements Fund 415400 Analysis as of June 17, 2004. He noted that there were uncommitted funds of only $72,018 for FY 04/05 and the Exterior Lighting allocation of $27,000 was firm and that additional costs would come from other funds.
2. Bookstore Entrance and Lobby Signage
Shelley Dutton handed out pictures of the proposed signage to be at the entrance of the bookstore. The bookstore marketing committee decided on an indoor awning at the top of the stairs with a neon arrow at a lower point, which would direct people to the bookstore. New lighting at the stairs has already been planned by Facilities. Shelley said that Dan Moret had been consulted regarding the proposed signage. Lynn Atkins said he would check with Todd Smith from Facilities regarding Wayfinding standards. Stephen Pruch asked whether the font used and the arrow fit in with Wayfinding. Tom asked if alternatives to the awning had been considered and said there might be a design that better fit with the architecture of the building. FMT members’ comments about the design were favorable. Stephen asked that FMT members check with their constituents and investigate any issues over the next couple of weeks. The FMT members will discuss and vote via e-mail. He expected to have a decision for the bookstore by August 6.
3. DTC Deli Area Remodel
Jeff Davis explained that Extended Learning would like to create a teaching kitchen for continuing education classes. Culinary related courses are becoming more popular and there is no access to main campus kitchens to teach classes. The project would include shifting a weight-bearing wall and moving some utilities. See agenda item number 4.
4. DTC 100 Reception Remodel/Circular Stair Removal
Jeff Davis explained that the current design of the reception area is insufficient especially for testing and assessment. He proposed moving the stairs, redesigning the area and making the testing area more soundproof.
Stephen Pruch said that no FMT funds were available for the next two fiscal years. Jeff Davis was advised to get approval from the Space Assignment Committee (SAC) for use of the deli space if necessary, assistance from Facilities to get conceptual drawings, estimated budget, and fund sources before returning for FMT approval of both the kitchen and reception area remodels. At that time, FMT would give each remodel a priority if funds were needed.
