D. DISCUSSION ITEMS
1.
Summer 2002 Calendar
Last year the Board approved the 2002 summer
session to begin on May 20, 2002, and end on July 25, 2002. The colleges have requested a change in
the start and end dates.
Both colleges prefer to begin the summer
session one week later, May 28, 2002, and end the 10-week session on August
1, 2002. The 10-week summer
schedule will accommodate two five-week summer sessions as well as shorter
term classes.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Board of
Trustees approve the change in the dates for summer session 2002 to May 28
through August 1.
2. q 2002-2003 Academic
Calendar
After three years of
study and review and extensive campus deliberations, consensus has been
reached on a compressed calendar for the fall and spring terms (comprised
of 16 weeks) and a full summer term (comprised of 15 weeks). This change will maximize the use of the
colleges’ facilities, allow more growth without additional expensive new
buildings, and enable students to complete their program studies sooner if
they choose to do so.
The YFA agreed to the new calendar in the
recently negotiated agreement. The
calendar issues presented by CSEA, Chapter 420, also have been addressed.
The attached calendar has
been through many revisions in an effort to satisfy various concerns of
staff and the State Chancellor’s Office.
Following Board approval, it will be submitted to the State
Chancellor’s Office for formal approval.
Locally, efforts are well underway to plan for implementation.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Trustees
approve the 2002–2003 Columbia and Modesto Junior Colleges academic
calendars.
3. CSEA, Chapter 420, Collective
Bargaining Agreement
On October 5, 2001,
representatives of CSEA, Chapter 420, and the District reached a tentative
negotiated agreement for the period July 1, 2001 to June 30, 2004. Highlights of the agreement include:
· A
3.6% salary schedule increase retroactive to July 1, 2001. For 2002-03, a salary schedule increase
equivalent to the received state COLA.
· Full
implementation of the classification study and salary survey effective
January 1, 2002. The study will bring
classified salaries to or above the median for our labor market.
· The
District agrees to continue to provide District-paid benefits during the
2001-02 and 2002-03 academic years.
· The agreement also provides for improvements in the
District’s fringe benefit program including an increase in District-paid
life insurance and improved dental benefits.
The agreement was forwarded previously to the
Board of Trustees. Copies are
available from the Chancellor’s Office.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Trustees approve the
negotiated agreement between CSEA, Chapter 420, and YCCD pending
ratification by the membership of CSEA, Chapter 420, and State CSEA.
4.
MJC
Firing Range
Plans to accommodate growth and improvements to
the MJC West Campus have been implemented over the last five years. These
changes included adding four child development centers and a soccer field,
and constructing two large classroom buildings. In addition, four new
parking lots and internal roads will be built this spring in order to
access the new classroom buildings when they open in the summer of 2002. By
the fall of 2002 the campus population will jump from approximately 3,000
students to 6,000 students and is likely to reach 10,000 students in
another three to five years.
One aspect of the changes to West Campus has
been the relocation of the Criminal Justice Training Center facilities. The
former facilities were temporary WWII buildings and were considered
undesirable by prospective and current law enforcement students. In addition,
there was growing concern that a live firing range in the middle of a
growing and busy campus was an incompatible use. Thus, the campus Master
Plan evolved to include the plan for relocation of this program and
facilities.
Approximately three and a half years ago, the
Yosemite Community College District signed a Joint Powers Agreement with
the County of Stanislaus (on behalf of the Sheriff’s Office) and the City
of Modesto (on behalf of the Police Department) to build and operate new
law enforcement training facilities on property near the Stanislaus County
Public Safety Center. The facility has since been built, the CJTC program
moved, and the old buildings removed from the MJC West Campus.
The agreement also called for a new firing
range to be built and used by the JPA partners. Recently, the CJTC JPA
agreed to support and use the Modesto Police Department’s new firing range
that is being built on West Main Street near Patterson. Plans call for the Criminal Justice
firearms classes (90% of the use), and the Administration of Justice
firearms classes (10% of the use) to be held at the MPD firing range. The agreement also calls for MJC to
continue to provide a range coordinator and the use of our weapons arsenal.
This agreement made it feasible to remove the MJC firing range from the
West Campus and proceed with the college plans for that site.
As these plans developed this spring,
environmental testing that is required for all remodeling, removal or
construction projects, was conducted at the firing range site. The
preliminary testing yielded results that required more extensive lead
testing. The conclusion of the hazardous waste consultants was that the
firing range and surrounding area have considerable environmental lead
contamination that must be removed.
In the process of conducting these tests, the consultants also
confirmed informal reports that we had been receiving. These consultants,
the district architect, and our own staff, confirmed that significant
shrapnel was escaping from the range. This was determined to be a safety
hazard to anyone in the area and a major potential liability.
Following the initial environmental testing,
the lead consultants reported to the District that the cistern which pumps
water out of the range must be closed down immediately. It was found to be
releasing lead-contaminated water into our water disposal system. The
District complied as required by law and the cistern was closed.
After the escaping shrapnel was confirmed, the
option of making immediate repairs was discussed. The lead consultants
stated that no repairs could be made to the range until the lead
contamination was removed and that only certified lead abatement
specialists are authorized to do the clean up. They also recommended that
the abatement occur before the rainy season begins. Significant rainfall,
they stated, will spread the contamination even further and increase the
costs of clean up.
The District has taken several steps in response
to this new information. The firing range was closed temporarily for health
and safety reasons in late July. As the MPD firing range was not yet
complete, temporary use of the Sheriff’s Office Laird Park facility was
obtained for the police academy students. Two Administration of Justice
classes were cancelled for the fall term but will be offered in the
spring. As a backup plan, the
Turlock Police Chief has stated that their new facility also can be used as
an alternate site in the unlikely event that the MPD facility is not
complete by January 2002.
Bid specifications have been written and
published to identify an authorized vendor to do the lead clean up of the
range and surrounding area. Estimates for the lead abatement begin at
approximately $150,000. The lead consultants also recommend that once the
site is cleaned that it not be reused for the same purpose as the current
configuration will cause the contamination to occur again, necessitating
yet another clean up.
A new development occurred recently. A formal
request was received from Sheriff Dick Rogers of Tuolumne County indicating
their interest in obtaining salvageable portions of the MJC firing range.
It is their goal to relocate the facility and build a range on property
owned by Tuolumne County. Once it is completed, MJC’s Criminal Justice
Training Center, in cooperation with Columbia College, will offer POST
certified and credit classes at the new site in Tuolumne County. Since
Tuolumne County and Columbia College are part of the Yosemite Community
College District’s service area, this goal is consistent with our mission
for serving the entire area. In fact, it has long been a shared goal to
increase the number of law enforcement offerings to the communities in the
foothills.
In summary, the twenty-six-year-old MJC firing
range is incompatible at its current site due to the extensive growth and
activity in the immediate area and throughout the campus. Consequently, it
poses significant health and safety challenges. In the proposal before the Board of Trustees, current
firearms programs will be offered at the Modesto Police Department’s firing
range and new courses will be offered at the Tuolumne County Sheriff’s
firing range in the future. Additionally, clean up and removal of the old
range will meet environmental requirements and allow campus instructional
and service plans to continue to be implemented in a safe and appropriate
way.
Representatives of law enforcement, district
consultants, and college staff will be available to speak to the issues
described in this item and to answer trustees’ questions.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Trustees authorize
proceeding with conducting lead abatement at the MJC firing range site,
closing the range and donating salvageable portions of the firing range to
the Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Office, and preparing an agreement with the
County of Tuolumne regarding the transfer of this property and the
provision of firearms training at their new range.
