Message from Facilities & Capital Projects Director Jason Francois: Update-East Road Infrastructure Work

Dear Colleague,

Forma Construction has continued to stay ahead of schedule and the infrastructure work on the east road is projected to be completed on June 12.

We do have some work to wrap-up in the meantime that will have a significant impact.

Here is the current schedule, along with a brief description of what each portion means to the community.

1) Next week, May 28th through 31st, Forma will reform damaged or removed sidewalks, gravel paths, curbs, and other similar components of the roadway and pedestrian access. This will not affect the current parking or closure area.

2) May 31st through June 3rd, the trench will receive the final backfill, up to the depth appropriate for repaving. This will mean saw cutting clean edges on the existing trench edge. There will be various levels of noise on these days.

3) June 4th will bring another change in parking. In order to ensure safe application of asphalt across entrance points, we need to reclose the 2900 lot in full AND keep the trenched area around the 5000 staff lot closed. The 5000 staff lot will remain open as it is at this moment. The pile containing excavated materials from project in the north lot and staged equipment will be removed, so those currently closed spots will be OPENED.

4) Patching, tack sealer, and striping will occur June 4th through 12th. Paving itself is expected to occur June 4th through 7th (3 days). *During this time, there will be fumes associated with asphalt paving.*

*Please contact Human Resources for alternate work sites and/or accommodations.

5) On June 12th, work will move toward landscaping restoration and project closeout and the work in the road and lots will be complete. All roadways and lots will be re-opened.

Facilities will work with Safety and Security to provide the best possible accessible pathways while the lots are unavailable.

Thank you for your patience and support as we begin the final phase of this project.

Sincerely,
Jason Francois

ctcLink is Coming!

Dear Colleague,

I am excited to let you know of some important changes that are coming to the College as part of the statewide ctcLink project. Over the next few years, Shoreline will be transitioning to a new software system that will change how employees and students conduct college processes from registering for classes to grading to accessing paychecks.

Our aging HP software is being replaced with a new statewide Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system called PeopleSoft – a modern, web-based, mobile-friendly software that will provide us with many more options and 24 x 7 access.

Work on this project has begun and will continue until we go live with the new software, currently anticipated for October 2021. Gavin Smith is serving as interim ctcLink Project Manager, while we recruit and hire a 3-year Organizational Change & Project Manager.  Teams of Shoreline employees are attending statewide workshops to help design how colleges in our system will work with the new software.

Moving to this new software will affect every department, process, and service that we provide; it will be an opportunity to analyze, streamline, and standardize processes so that we can live into the disciplined excellence goal in our Strategic Plan.

We all will need to work together to make this challenging and rewarding project successful. To get started:

Thank you for all you do!
Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
President

Message from President Roberts: Memorial Day 2019

Dear Colleague,

Memorial Day weekend is a special time for us to commemorate those who gave their lives in military service to our country. It’s also an opportunity for us to honor those who continue to serve, including members of our own campus community who are active-duty and veteran students and employees.

I hope you enjoy a relaxing weekend and also take time to remember our fallen heroes. Warm wishes to you and your loved ones on this Memorial Day. 

Gratefully,

Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.

President
