Fourteen of 16 members from Prescott; Verde Valley Dean Dr. Tina Redd not included on Committee
Yavapai Community College is in the process of developing a ten-year Capital Master Plan (CMP). One of the first steps has been to set up a steering committee. The CMP sixteen person Committee is completely dominated by Prescott based executives and employees; only two of the members come from the Verde Valley. (See list below.)
Absent from the CMP was the Verde Valley Campus Dean, Dr. Tina Redd. (See list below.)
According to the College, the CMP steering committee consists of members who also serve on the Facilities and Technology Committee, which meets once a month to provide input and receive feedback on the progress of the College’s planning partner. In addition, members of the Executive Leadership Team meet monthly with the SmithGroup team to monitor progress, serve as a checkpoint and provide feedback as to the direction the CMP is taking.
During November, the SmithGroup team has been analyzing information provided by various departments throughout the College. Information includes past, present and future enrollment and trends, class schedules and student/community member space utilization, information related to the College’s two libraries, strategic, academic, and staffing plans, economic and demographic trends and other data.
The SmithGroup’s first tour of the campuses and centers is scheduled for December 6, 7, and 8 which will include meetings with stakeholders and conducting public forums at the Prescott and Verde Valley campuses. Prior to the arrival on campus, a survey will be sent out for you to provide input into the development of the campus master plan. Stay tuned for future announcements regarding the campus master plan which, is anticipated to take seven months.
