Agenda Item 7234

 

May 15, 2000

 

SUBJECT:  Draft Master Plan Review

PROPOSED ACTION: 

That the Board of Trustees discuss the draft Master Plan.

RELATED BOARD POLICY OR RESOLUTION:

Policies E-1, Master Planning, and E-2, Facilities Planning, call for Board consideration of strategic plans for the College.  Also, Policy A-4 on College Ends calls for the Board to identify, based on its assessment of community needs, its priorities among programs which require significant subsidy. 

RATIONALE:

The review and prioritization of the elements of ACC's strategic plan have particular urgency since voters did not approve the increased tax revenues which would have been required to fully fund the goals identified by the Citizens' Advisory Committee and earlier Board votes.  The draft Master Plan provided by the Administration provides a basis for further discussion on these topics with the goal of final adoption of the Master Plan at a subsequent meeting.

BUDGETARY CONSIDERATIONS:

The Master Plan developed in response to Board policy and directives is of fundamental importance to the budgets of the next few years.  A substantial amount of general financial information is included in the planning materials supplied by the Administration.  The budgetary impact of specific proposals will be projected in the material accompanying the proposals at the time they are presented for Board decision.
