Campus Updates 08/04/22

Hi Campus Community,

Here are this week’s updates!

EVENTS AND NEWS  

Message from the President: 

Hey folks, hope you are having a great week so far!  This past week I have been able to meet more representatives of the Shoreline community.  It’s been great learning about all the great work staff and faculty are engaged in. Diane Dotter and met with the City of Shoreline’s Mayor and City Manager.  There are some exciting projects that the city is engaged in, and some that SCC could be a great partner in. Stay tuned for details!   I was also able to participate in the film excitement (see below for details).  

Fall Quarter Planning 

  • Monday-Thursdays 8 am-5 pm, Friday 8am – 4:30pm: all services will be available in person, as well as online.  
  • Employee Work Schedules: 
  • Administrative/exempt, classified staff, and non-instructional faculty will return to on-campus work for their regularly scheduled work shifts.  
  • Faculty will have an increased on-campus presence with the return to predominantly in-person instruction, office hours, and events.  
  • Campus Cleaning:  
  • Returning to pre-COVID 19 cleaning standards in Fall 2022 means the College will provide the same level of reliable custodial services currently delivered but without the additional sanitizing measures previously required by local, state, and federal offices following the pandemic-driven closure two years ago.  However, the College will retain a number of public health practices that were put into place in response to COVID-19, including the availability of hand sanitizers, masks, and wipe dispensers throughout all our buildings. 
  • For the duration of Fall Quarter 2022, parking permits will not be required for the general populations of staff, students, and visitors. Parking permits will be required, but provided free of charge, for Building 7000 residents. Parking and traffic citations will still be issued in the event of illegal parking, hazardous parking, reckless driving, and in the Parent-Child Center designated areas

HSAMCC – Update

Progress Updates

  • During May and June, construction work and activities included the following:
    • All underground storm, plumbing, electrical, drainage, and water lines under the building were completed.
    • Underground waterproof and dampproof activities completed.
    • All concrete footings and slab on grade were completed. This was a major milestone for the project.
    • Protection board over slab on grade where finishes call out for polished was installed for the 1st floor.
    • Site electrical conduit on North of building for lighting and other power needs was installed.
    • The infiltration pond at the Greenwood lot was mostly completed. This pond will eventually collect stormwater from the site, allowing the silts to settle before making their way back to Boeing creek.
    • Progress of the stand-alone mockup for the exterior of the building continues to take shape.
    • Structural steel arrived, was organized, and installation began in late June. This was also a big milestone for the project and is the critical path for the project.
    • Site electrical underground work on road East side of the project and towards the PUB has begun creating rerouting for traffic and temporary road closures.
    • Interior signage and donor sign design progress continue to evolve.
    • Furniture design and selection of products also continue to make progress.
    • Next few months the project will continue to work on structural steel and major structure activities. The next big milestones for the months ahead include:
      • Pouring concrete floors for L2 and L3.
      • Roof structure completion.
      • Kickoff meeting to begin discussions for move logistics of the buildings that will be demolished in Phase II.
  • The critical path and the completion date tracking for a Summer/Fall 2023 building completion.
  • Notices regarding road closures, loud work, shutdowns, or interruptions continue to be shared with the Faculty and Staff, and the College’s campus neighbors.

Fiscal Stewardship and Accountability Share Point site

College community,

Good morning.  In keeping with the College’s commitment to transparency on the budget and other financial matters, I am pleased to announce the completion of a new Share Point site called Fiscal Stewardship and Accountability.  This site, which is available to all faculty, staff, and administrators, will centralize into one, easy-to-find location a wide range of important budget and fiscal reports, including:

  • The approved annual operating budget and most recent cash reserve report.
  • Monthly budget status reports, reflecting year-to-date revenues and expenses.
  • The most recently completed Consolidated Annual Financial Report (CAFR) and state audit report.
  • PowerPoint presentations used throughout the year as the budget is developed.
  • A copy of the Budget 101 presentation.

I will be working with the Strategic Planning and Budget Council in the fall to identify other documents to add to the site.  You can also send suggestions directly to me. 

I hope you find this information useful.  If you have any questions or would like a budget presentation for your work team, please let me know.

Thank you.

Bob Williamson
