Diane E. Snyder, CPA, M.S. Vice Chancellor for Finance and Administration
1. Provide skilled technical workforce to meet present and future employer needs in critical high demand, high growth industries in our region.
2. Create capacity for a growing number of students to successfully complete training and get a job or transfer to a university.
Alamo Colleges - Grew 24% since 2005, adding 12,700 students since last bond election(15 year Demographic growth + 46%, +30,000 students by 2030)
San Antonio – Expected to grow 1,000,000 people by 2030

Why is CIP investment needed?
Alamo Colleges must continue to be a catalyst in providing a skilled workforce for the economic benefit of our region.
Best practice followed in 2005 CIP:● Citizen's CIP Bond Committee (Plan Development prior to
November 2005 Ballot)
● Citizen's CIP Oversight Committee (Through 2010)
● Ensure expenditures in accordance with Bond Projects approved by Voters
● Review of funds proposed to be moved between projects
● Periodic reports to the Public and Alamo Colleges Board of Trustees
CIP includes Citizen Involvement(Taxpayers, Business, Industry, Students, Senior Citizens'
Organizations)
2005 versus 2016

Issue $400M with NO tax increase
Prior CIP was approx. equal $ alloc. to each college◦ Did not consider College # Students variances◦ Did not consider older renovation needs◦ Did allocate $ off the top for Technology
$400M New CIP – allocationa. Determine % to fund areas at all 5 colleges:
(IT, Security, Sustainability/ Energy, new regional center (NCC), Signage/Physical Plant),
b. Consider full-time student equivalent (FTSE) “on-campus” forecasted at 2025 to allocate $ per college

Options for North Central Land: a)“online” Regional Center used by allb) secondary campus to NVC
Ø Develop a new campus focused around the quickly developing "on-line" students
Ø Build a traditional campus just with less bricks and mortar
Ø Focus construction on facilities for which student have to come to campus; spaces that host courses or elements of courses that require "hands-on" learning (i.e. Chemistry, Biology, Geology, Physics, and Kinesiology lab spaces)
21
Ø Construct testing and open computer laboratory space where students come to the campus and take tests in person; lectures primarily take place "on-line”
Ø The library should be planned to be as "virtual" as possible with the constructed facility housing a minimum of stacks and several group learning spaces for students that want to gather as a group to discuss the courses or work together in person on projects
Ø Build less traditional classroom spaces
22
Potential IT Investment Areas
