To complete this assignment, B&D conducted a market study for each project type that culminates in financial analyses with an outline program, project budget, and ten-year pro forma for each project type. QUALIFICATIONS The findings of this study constitute the professional opinions of B&D personnel based on the assumptions and conditions detailed throughout. B&D analysts have conducted research using both primary and secondary sources which are deemed reliable, but whose accuracy B&D cannot guarantee. Due to variations in the national and global economic conditions, actual expenses and revenues may vary from projections, and these variances may be material.

Priority Setting: To discuss facilities, programs and service priorities and while clarifying what they might include in the building of the event center. a) Leslie discussed each item on the facilities list and the programs and services briefly while clarifying what certain items were or where they would fall into. Items such as healthy food and food options, lighting on the fields, and study space options were grouped together for clarity. Some items were removed as a given that would be built into the building regardless. These were quality ventilation, scoreboards, extensive storage, natural light and great sound. Faculty and staff lounges along with dedicated workout spaces will be a campus recommendation. Lights have been determined as a priority and that we will need turf and fencing for the baseball field. An indoor portable track has been added as we would be able to fill this niche since the closest indoor track is a few states away. An indoor track could bring a great amount of revenue. Victor also discussed parking issues that would result in larger events and that we would need to take in consideration the busy times on campus. b) To determine the athletics priorities the committee was asked to place 11 yellow dots next to their priority items while an orange dot was placed next to their number 1 item.

  • Daily 49Er Jan 24, 2011 Makeshift Café Opens in Student Recreation and Wellness Center by Katrina Guevara Assistant News Editor
    Daily 49er Jan 24, 2011 Makeshift café opens in Student Recreation and Wellness Center By Katrina Guevara Assistant News Editor A temporary snack center opened Thursday and will be operating at the Student Recreation and Wellness Center for the spring semester until Associated Students Inc. finds a permanent vendor. The new snack shack will sell food staples such as water, energy drinks and healthy snacks for the next three to six months, according to ASI Communications Coordinator Christina Esparza. "We have not yet sent out a request for proposal to outside vendors, so there really are no potential vendors yet," Esparza said. After the Fresh Foods Café Express' sudden closure at Cal State Long Beach's recreation center last November, ASI has been running its own mini- convenience store. According to University Student Union Board of Trustees chair Asha Nettles, the entire board hopes to replace the space with healthy and affordable food products. "I did enjoy the organic option that was [at Fresh Foods] before and hope that it's continued with the next vendor," said Nettles, who is also a CSULB student and frequent visitor of the recreation center. However, some students have different opinions on the types of products the future shop should have in store. "I think the snack corner should just be a smoothie bar," said sophomore geography major Aaron Goddu. "If they sold fresh smoothies, juices and even protein shakes, then it would generate a lot of business." Other recreation center members are hoping for healthy and tasty alternatives. "Fresh fruit would be great, but I understand it has a short shelf life, so it would be pricey," said graphic design alumni Bryan Villa.
