    Measure G Projects: Foothill College ($175.6M)

    I Question on how the $$ split was decided. Why not 40/60% split for Foothill (FH) & De Anza (DA)? Bond was handled by district. Many areas incl. Campus Center not specifically itemized but could be included by the broader projects such as upgrade of infrastructure. Swing space line item for minor projects not Arts project. District updates websites. Need date of update on pages. District does bond schedule & will post summary schedule to website. $3M for equipment & vehicles is Central Services project. Covers district, FH & DA.  Event center is  district project. Board / Chancellor decision to keep as district or transfer to a De Anza project.  Consultant currently reaching out to DA and community to gather feedback on purpose of building. Request for more info on major topics i.e. housing/Medical Building/Measure G etc. & for follow up from the President’s campus wide Q&A meetings.
     3:25 p.m. Services for Students / Arts Relocation Presentation I/D Faculty concern over $20k spent on review and analysis of campus spaces for Arts relocation project. Faculty weren’t included. Most spaces unsuitable for various reasons as stated in the document.  Spaces in analysis included the understanding that these areas would have been remodeled to accommodate the instructional discipline. What is the purview of the Budget Advisory Committee in determining how Measure G funding should be spent? Arts should be kept together. L Quad is for languages. Data to support that De Anza is “overbuilt will be provided. District determined  timeline of Flint demolition & scheduled for summer 2024. Demo plan will identify areas to move to swing space for noise/safety reasons.
