The meeting was called to order at 11:15 A.M.
I. The minutes of February 28 and March 14, 2002 were unanimously approved.
II. President's Report-Lantz Simpson
A. The new parking structure is open but faculty spaces have not yet been designated.
B. Budget Committee meeting-Tom Donner predicted that the district reserve funds will drop to $2.4 million this fiscal year. Such a drop would place SMC on the chancellor's "watch list" which would mean that the district would not be required to meet the goals for hiring full-time faculty for Fall, 2002. A district goes on the watch list when the reserves drop below 3% of total expenses. The Faculty Association is committed to preserving new full-time faculty hiring.
III. Negotiations Report-Robert Flores
A. The contract is finished, edited, signed and should be printed by next week.
B. Negotiations continue on the subjects of part-time office hours, load factors, and staff parking (including the possibility of one all staff parking lot.).
IV. Motion from the Executive Committee-Reassigned time
The Executive Committee moves that the following reassigned time be provided to Faculty Association officers and committee chairs for the Summer and Fall of 2002.
Summer 2002 - President-20%
Vice President-40%
Fall 2002 - President - 80%
Vice President-80%
Chief Negotiator-40%
2 Negotiating team members-40%
Webmaster-20%
Hourly/Newsletter-20%
The motion was approved unanimously.
V. Elections-Beverly Tholen
The following nominations were made from the floor.
President-Lantz Simpson
Vice President- Ken Mason
Chief Negotiator-Robert Flores
Secretary-Ann Maddox
Ballots will be in the mailboxes on April 25 and must be returned by May 3 at noon.
