MINUTES OF MEETING
OCTOBER 15, 2001
The meeting was called to order by President Tyree Wieder at 5:35 PM.
Committee members present were Gabriel Avila, Jennifer Brogin, Diann Corall, Lorie Dinkin, Carlos Ferreyra, Sally James, Marshall Long, William Mosley, and Kenn Phillips. Those absent were Edwin Young, and Mannon Kaplan.
Others present were President Wieder and Vice President of Academic Affairs, Dr. A. Susan Carleo.
After welcoming and thanking the committee members, Dr. Wieder introduced Dr. Carleo to the members, and then invited the members to introduce themselves and indicate the constituency that each represents.
Dr. Wieder gave an overview of the history of Proposition "A".
The committee members then discussed the proposed bylaws. A true and exact copy of the proposed modifications is attached hereto, with changes highlighted. Of particular concern to one member was the provision in Section I, General Qualifications 4 regarding vendors. This member works in the construction industry, and might in the future be involved in work at another campus. Dr. Wieder will consult with the District’s General Counsel, and relay the response to the concerned member.
The committee unanimously approved the bylaws as proposed to be amended, pending the required review by the chancellor.
President Wieder designated Mr. Carlos Ferreyra and Mr. Kenn Phillips to serve as co-chairs, and Mr. Ferreyra conducted the remainder of the meeting.
Dr. Wieder shared with the members the current status of the master plan and construction plans. Several maps of the campus and proposed building locations were reviewed.
The members were reminded of their invitations to attend the District Reception for Proposition "A" to be held the following evening at the Biltmore Hotel.
Ms. Lorie Dinkin requested a tour of the campus, and will call the president’s office to arrange it. Dr. Wieder offered to provide each committee member with a campus tour.
The members also requested some information on DMJM, and specifically wanted to know how they handled their work at CSUN, and whether or not there were cost overruns.
Mr. Ferreyra requested that draft minutes be sent to the committee members as soon as possible.
The meeting was adjourned at approximately 7:25 PM.
