Blount Center Expansion Project Update Information Item 412.1180, 18-19

Project Background & Description:

This project involves the design and construction of a new 86,311 gross square foot building on the site of the current Center for Innovation & Economic Development at Santa Fe College’s Blount Center in downtown Gainesville. This project is in accordance with the College’s most recent master plan, educational plant survey, and capital improvement program (CIP). The new facility will house vocational classroom and laboratory spaces to meet existing and anticipated enrollment growth from SF’s Information Technology Education and Business Programs, as well as general education classes. It will also provide modern and innovative spaces for SF students and incubating businesses. The new building will include a full slate of support spaces including study, library, meeting, and exhibition spaces. This facility will also provide space for student enrollment services and faculty offices, allowing the Blount Center to become a full-service campus.

In July 2016, the legislature appropriated $2,563,712 in Public Education Capital Outlay (PECO) funding for the design services of this project. An additional $5,475,998 in PECO funding was appropriated in July 2017 and $5,000,000 in July 2018 to partially fund construction costs. The College has requested the remaining funds needed to complete construction with this year’s Annual Capital Legislative Budget Request-Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).

Architect/Engineer: Harvard Jolly Architecture Contractor/Construction Manager: Parrish-McCall Constructors, Inc. Florida Building Code Inspector: In-house Estimated Project Budget: $32,531,029 Source of Funds: PECO, Other local funds

Working with one of the College’s annual contract architects, a planning group began conceptual planning and programming for the new facility in December 2016. After multiple meetings with the planning group, the architect submitted a final master plan report for the Blount Center on June 1, 2017. The report was provided to architectural firms responding to the College’s request for qualifications to provide architectural services for the Blount Center Expansion project, and the Board gave permission to advertise and select in April 2017.

Following approval of the project budget and permission by the Board in April 2017 to advertise, select, and negotiate a contract for architectural services for this project, a seven-member selection committee unanimously chose Harvard Jolly Architecture as the top ranked firm. College staff brought an informational item to the Board in November 2017 that reviewed the selection process for Architectural Services, and in February 2018, the Board approved the agreement for Architectural/Engineering Services for the Blount Center Expansion.

Agenda Item 2.5 September 18, 2018 Page 2

Project Status:

Harvard Jolly Architecture has completed numerous meetings with SF’s Facilities Planning and Construction department and the College’s Steering Committee for the programming and design of the new Blount Center expansion. Harvard Jolly Architecture representatives will be present to share the schematic design images that have been completed for the project. These images will be used to move forward with completing the final construction documents for the new building.

District Board of Trustees Agenda Item: 2.6 September 18, 2018

Amended Rule 5.11: Records Retention and Destruction Information Item 410.548, 18-19

The Amended Rule 5.11: Records Retention and Destruction, which states the College’s policy on the retention and destruction of records, was last updated in 1985. Since then, there have been changes in Florida Statute, Florida Administrative Code, and State policy on the retention and destruction of records, thus requiring an update to the rule. Generally, this amendment updates the language for custodial requirements, destruction of records, and inspection and examination of records. Among other things, this amendment clarifies that the Office of the President is the general Custodian of Public Records and adds the ability of the College to designate electronic records as master copies subject to retention and destruction requirements.

S Building 3rd Floor Student International Center Project 412.1181, 18-19 Completion

Project Background & Description:

This project involved the design and remodel of 5,300 square feet on the 3rd floor of S Building to create a Student International Center. This center will better serve SF students by co-locating the four programs that support the College’s International Education Initiative. These programs include the International Education Office, English as a Second Language, International Student Services, and the Multicultural Student Center, which were scattered across the NW Campus in four separate buildings. This initiative makes better use of underutilized space on the east side of the 3rd floor of S Building including excessive corridor space. It will also ease overcrowding on the 1st floors of R and S Buildings and will make available the west end of I Building for future use as an additional Natural Sciences lab.

On April 18, 2017, the Board approved a total project budget of $975,000 to design, construct, furnish, and equip the Student International Center on the 3rd floor of S Building. Additionally, on November 14, 2017, the Board approved the construction manager’s guaranteed maximum price (GMP) of $563,407.

T Building Police Department Expansion and Remodel Project 412.1182, 18-19 Completion

Project Background & Description:

The Santa Fe Police Department (SFPD) is housed in Building T, located just south of North Road on the Northwest Campus. The 1,640 square foot original structure, constructed in 1974, originally served as the College’s bus shelter. Today it houses the police dispatch center, offices, meeting space, and secure storage for evidence and equipment for a twenty-seven person police department that operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. In times of crisis, the building also serves as the emergency operations center for the College. Prior to its expansion and remodel, the building was significantly undersized and its infrastructure was inadequate to support the current operations of the SFPD.

This project involved the design and construction of a 1,720 square foot addition to the south side of the building, as well as the renovation and remodel of 1,640 square feet of the existing facility. In addition to providing adequate space for the SFPD to function, this project included safety enhancements for the security of the SFPD’s employees, upgrades to the electrical and communications infrastructure, corrections to moisture intrusion issues, and improvements to site drainage. All of these enhancements support the day-to-day and emergency operations of the SFPD and assist in the potential for earning accreditation through the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators (IACLEA).

The College initially allocated $250,000 in FY 2015-2016 for the renovation of the existing building and planned to utilize PECO general maintenance funds to improve the electrical infrastructure. Through the design process, the extent of the project’s needs were fully identified and an additional $500,000 was allocated to this project in the FY 2016-2017 operating and capital outlay budget process. In October 2016, the Board approved a total project budget of $1,075,000. Additionally, in April 2017, the Board approved the construction manager’s guaranteed maximum price (GMP) of $933,935.

Blount Center Building DA Roof Replacement Project Completion 412.1183, 18-19

Project Background & Description:

The roof on the Blount Center Building DA was last replaced in 1990 when the building was remodeled from its original use as a train station into a classroom building for the College. At 27 years old, the roof was in poor condition and was beyond its useful life.

This project involved the design, removal, and replacement of both the flat built-up roof with tapered insulation on the main portion of Building DA and the removal and replacement of asphalt shingles over the covered walkways. The combined square footage of this project was approximately 17,500 square feet.

In January 2018, the Board approved a project budget of $667,700 for the replacement of the Blount Center Building DA roof and the construction manager’s guaranteed maximum price (GMP) of $508,430.

Unaudited Annual Financial Report, Year Ended June 30, 2018 201.852, 18-19

The unaudited Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year 2017-2018 was completed and filed with the Division of Florida Colleges. The College implemented Governmental Accountings Standards Board’s (GASB) Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions. The beginning net position of the College was decreased by $774,510 due to the implementation of this GASB Statement. More information on this change can be found in Notes 2 and 3 of the financial statements.

Revenue Highlights:

College revenues increased by $8.1 million, or 7.3%, compared to the prior fiscal year as a result of the following factors:

 Operating Revenues

 Net student tuition and fee revenue increased by $314,000, or 1.1%, because of a slight decrease in enrollment, offset by a decrease in the scholarship allowance.  Grants and contracts decreased by $433,000, or 9.4%, primarily due to a decrease in state grants.  Auxiliary enterprise revenue increased by $207,000, or 9.4%, as a result of the College’s inter- local agreement with the City of Gainesville for management services of the Gainesville Technology Entrepreneurship Center Incubator.

 Nonoperating and Other Revenues and Gains

 State noncapital appropriations increased by $1.5 million, or 3.6%, primarily due to increased funding in Florida College System Program funds.  Federal and State student financial aid increased by $648,000, or 2.9%, due primarily to increases in State program scholarship funds.  Other gifts, grants, and contracts increased by $68,000, or 3.2%, as a result of increased enrollment by dual enrollment students.  Investment income increased by $1 million, or 469.2%, principally due to a reduction in unrealized losses on investments and an increase in interest earned.  State capital appropriations increased by $2.9 million, or 73.4%, due to increased Public Education Capital Outlay funding from the prior fiscal year.  Capital grants, contracts, gifts, and fees increased by $1.3 million, or 40.1%, primarily due to a transfer of capital assets from the Foundation to the College.  Other revenues increased by $1.1 million due to the recording of a premium and gain from the refinancing of capital improvement bonds. Agenda Item 7.4 September 18, 2018 Page 2

Expense Highlights:

College operating expenses increased by $9.8 million, or 9.1%, compared to the prior fiscal year as a result of the following factors:

 The College provided a 9.5% recurring salary increase to all full-time personnel and a 4% increase to part-time personnel. These increases were complemented with the recording of a net pension and accrued leave expense totaling $1.3 million. As a result, personnel services increased by $4.7 million, or 7.4%, from the prior fiscal year.  Scholarships and waivers provided to students increased by $1.6 million, or 10.1%, primarily due to an increase in Florida’s Bright Futures scholarship accompanied by a decrease in scholarship allowances. Scholarship expenses, similar to tuition and fee revenue, are also shown net of scholarship allowances (amounts received from sources other than students and third-party payers).  Utilities and communication increased by $161,000, or 7.1%, largely due to an increase in electricity, water, sewer, and gas expenses primarily used by the building addition at the Institute of Public Safety Kirkpatrick Center.  Contractual services decreased by $361,000, or 5.3%, primarily due to a decrease in contractual and technology services.  Other services and expenses increased by $3 million, or 76.5%, primarily due to an increase in bad debt expense associated with the leases of managed space.  Materials and supplies increased by $1.7 million, or 18.5%, which is attributable primarily to increases in expenses for non-capitalized renovations and remodeling, minor equipment, and software expenses.  Depreciation expense decreased by $1.1 million, or 18.6%, as a result of several buildings and other structures reaching full amortization.

General Operating Fund (Fund 1) Highlights:

 As a result of operations, transfers, and GASB statement No. 68, reserve, Board designated, and unallocated net position increased by $732,000 to $23 million. Total unrestricted net position, including the full recognition of long-term liabilities (compensated absences, other postemployment benefits, and net pension liabilities), is at a deficit of $12.3 million.

Amendment #1 to Agreement for Bookstore Management and 209.198, 18-19 Related Services with Barnes & Noble College Booksellers, LLC

Amendment #1 to the Agreement for Bookstore Management and Related Services is made for the purposes of extending the agreement with Barnes & Noble College Booksellers, LLC for a period of five years: November 1, 2018, through October 31, 2023.

In addition, language in the agreement has been added or modified based on potential new product offerings, facility environment, additional provisions requested by the College, and the state of the industry.

Highlights include:

 Adding a provision to provide the Contractor space and support to collect outstanding textbooks on consignment.

 Adding a provision to affirm that the College will not use third party providers except as otherwise stipulated in the Contract. Clarifies that the College will place only Barnes & Noble eCommerce links in the learning management system, and adds a requirement requiring the College to place a link to the Bookstore on the College’s homepage and registration system (simply memorializing the College’s current practice).

 Adding a provision that provides the parameters for the College to participate in the “First Day” program (whereby students would automatically receive electronic educational materials on the first day of class at a reduced cost if they opt in). College participation is optional and will be determined on a course by course basis.

 Adding a provision that includes the Blount Center in the list of sites where the Bookstore will deliver student pre-ordered materials at the beginning of the semester at no charge or offer free shipping for students that attend classes only at that Center if the Bookstore opts not to deliver materials directly to the Center.

 Reducing the gross margin on graphing and technical calculators over $50 to 24% if they are adopted as required course materials.

 Clarifying procedures for delivery of the High School Dual Enrollment (HSDE) materials and added a provision that the Bookstore will deliver books to the HSDE office for the program each semester.

 Setting the commissions for “First Day” and eTextbooks at 7%. (This will represent an increase in commissions for eTextbooks as they were previously sold under a model whereby the College earned commissions only on the Bookstore’s agency fee, netting approximately 5.3%).

Abercrombie (JEA) in December of 2009 to provide certain labor, materials, and services for the exterior building envelope of the Project, including, without limitation, the stucco system. The Project was completed in February of 2011.

In October of 2016, the College notified Danis of deficiencies and defects in the exterior facade of the Project. Danis engaged Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc. (WJE) to perform an investigation of the exterior facade of the Project. WJE inspected the Project in January of 2017 and produced its Final Stucco Distress Investigation Report on March 14, 2017, noting alleged deficiencies, and purported causes of said deficiencies, in the exterior facade of the Project. In June of 2017, SF retained outside counsel and served upon Danis and ZPA a 558 Notice of Claim identifying claimed deficiencies in the exterior wall system, which Danis forwarded to JEA. In February of 2018, the College entered into a consulting contract with Hoy and Miller Consulting, LLC to perform an investigation of the exterior building envelope. WJE has developed, and Santa Fe College has, in turn, independently reviewed and accepted, a warranty protocol to address the deficiencies.

After attending mediation, Santa Fe College, Danis, ZPA, and JEA have reached an amicable and satisfactory resolution related to the exterior facade and desire to enter into the proposed Settlement Agreement to fully and completely document the resolution of the claims between the parties. The parties will contribute warranty proceeds, as set forth in the proposed Settlement Agreement ($309,000 from ZPA, $309,000 from JEA, $9,000 from Danis, and $99,000 from SF), to complete the warranty work agreed upon by the parties. Additional documents include an agreement between ZPA and WJE, which will be assigned to Santa Fe College, because ZPA has relocated and is not licensed to perform work in the United States.

The settlement documents have not yet been finalized by the parties but work must proceed as soon as possible; accordingly, College staff recommends approval of the agreement in concept based upon the draft of the proposed settlement agreement and related documents and delegation of signature authority after review and approval by appropriate college officials and outside legal counsel.
