Maricopa County Community College District Governing Board Minutes
February 7, 2017
A Policy Committee, an Agenda Review, and Executive Session of the Maricopa County Community College District Governing Board were scheduled to be held beginning at 4:00 p.m. at the District Support Services Center, 2411 West 14th Street, Tempe, Arizona, pursuant to ARS §38-431.07, notice having been duly given.
GOVERNING BOARD Alfredo Gutierrez, President Johanna Haver, Member Laurin Hendrix, Member Linda Thor, Member Jean McGrath, Member Dana Saar, Member Tracy Livingston, Member (via teleconference)
ADMINISTRATION Maria Harper-Marinick LaCoya Shelton Paul Dale, Interim EVC & Provost Gaye Murphy Edward Kelty Christina Schultz Chris Bustamante Bill Guerriero Steven Gonzales Jan Gehler Chris Haines Terry Leyba-Ruiz Shari Olson Sasan Poureetezadi Maggie McConnell, Legal
POLICY COMMITTEE CALL TO ORDER REVIEW OF THE “FIRST READ” DRAFT
The Policy Committee was called to order at 4:05 p.m. by Board Member Dana Saar. Mr. Saar commented that the Board would be discussing and reviewing changes and revisions pertaining to Governing Board Outcomes Policy 1.3 on Developmental Education. He explained that it was the intent to add policy language which would result in students being successful in the classes they take. Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Dr. Paul Dale explained that the old policy would be deleted and replaced by the proposed new policy. Both action items were listed on the agenda, as well as the proposed outcomes approved at the last meeting. The next steps would be the development of targets and metrics. It was suggested that changes to the outcomes be highlighted. It was also suggested that the term “underprepared” be inserted as a footnote in the third column “2017-2020 Strategic Plan Outcomes”. With reference to the target of 10% increase to the graduation rate of academically underserved and underprepared students, Dr. Dale explained that our current graduation rate is 17% and the 10% would increase this to 27%. In defining “underprepared/underserved student, it is important not to make a generalization of this. There is a need for a baseline in the strategic plan of this 10%. To be more specific, need to
Minutes | January 10, 2017 Policy Committee and Agenda Review Page 2 of 4
identify the starting point. We will make some notation of what baselines are for the different disciplines. We are at 75% in Reading and it varies by discipline. The first read on the policy action items will take place on February 28 and vote on the policy action items will take place in one month (March 28). The metrics provided at this time are only sample metrics and there are many more. These provide high level data and they are different between the cohort and all students. Prior to second read, more robust metrics will be brought forward. It was requested that data pertaining to years out of high school be included. Based on current resources what is needed to reach the goals of 10% and 75%? The Chancellor has been working with Gaye Murphy and Paul Dale on this to address strategic commitments. We need to allocate funds in a better fashion. If we are going to improve graduation rates for developmental education, that means that there are also many that are not successful. Are there resources that we could provide to help? One of our four outcomes is to help the economy of the state. This is one of the charges of the task force. Where is the greatest need and do we have the resources? Investment needs to produce a return. This is a huge dollar amount that can be documented to show returns. We need to be intentional when we ask for money. The first read will be in two weeks. Need to make changes known to Paul Dale. We have gone through two of the major outcomes and we will now need to address #4 on Global Engagement. We do a lot in this area but actually only 15-20,000 students actively participate in this area. We need to better define what it means and how to measure. Need to look at limitations. These will be ready when the Board is ready to discuss. Need to write limitations in a positive fashion. A meeting is needed to review existing Board policy that is based on outcomes and limitations. Chancellor Evaluation: The Board Committee met earlier in the day to discuss Chancellor evaluation. Will need to add an additional instrument that deals with behaviors. Contract calls for Chancellor to be evaluated in May. Will review contract that we made and make one revision to allow for this self-appraisal instrument. Will bring to Policy Committee next month. Include this year because May is so close. Agree on adding strategic plan. Not set in stone. Concerned about timing in contract called for May and last year did not happen until November. Want to be sure that the committee comes back with sufficient time to meet that deadline. Prepare self-appraisal based on Board outcomes and approve at April meeting. First read will be in March. November Monitoring Report reflects progress made in previous year. This is an important piece in Chancellor’s evaluation. Talk about alignment between Monitoring Report and evaluation. Things happen around November but looking at logistics it would be more disruptive. It is more

ADJOURNMENT AGENDA REVIEW
complicated that it appears. We collect data through June and it takes time to evaluate and analyze. The Policy Committee adjourned at 4:40 p.m. President Gutierrez called to order the Agenda Review at 5:00 p.m. Minutes: Deemed to be too lengthy. One board member supported the detailed minutes as being necessary for a government entity. 14.2 Authorization by Governing Board of the President’s Involvement in the General Counsel Search:
Board Member McGrath noted that in November of 2014, the Board turned over the hiring/firing of employees to the Chancellor. Wanted to know if this position was to be the only employee hiring the Board would be involved with? Response: It was explained that this was the only position in the organization that reported to both the Chancellor and Board. The majority of the time this position will operate under the Chancellor and working with the Board will be the exception.
Board Member Livingston noted she agreed with Mrs. McGrath in that we were moving from a policy that had been put together previously. Response: This is the only position that reports to both the Board and Chancellor. It is time to put a person in place. The last search was not successful. The committee will have external and internal members on the committee in addition to the Board President and Chancellor doing the final interview. The Chancellor has to make final decision.
14.3 Resolution Regrading Governing Board Fiduciary Responsibilities: Discussion: There are questions as to whether staff can speak to board members. Under state law and own board policies and procedures for accreditation, Board has to be actively involved in monitoring. Chancellor remains administrative officer but employees can speak to board members. Under board policies, Chancellor can request that board members report back on conversation. Staff can speak without reservation to board members. Speaking to board members will not jeopardize jobs. Conversations should be pertinent, not just about problems or things that are negative. 15.2 Agreement for Dual Enrollment with Charter Schools Discussion: Instructors must meet requirements because of A.R.S. We have requested an extension from HLC on requirements. Have not received response. 15.3 Student Health Assessment Districtwide Discussion: The I.R.B. decided to adopt this practice a few years back and guidelines provide strict confidentiality. President Gutierrez wants to ensure that this will abide with confidentiality clause.
Minutes | January 10, 2017 Policy Committee and Agenda Review Page 4 of 4
15.4 MCCCD Prop 301 Discussion: Budget similar to last year. Unused money can be carried from year to year. This year planning to pay down the carryforward to fund crucial needs. Will be transitioning all 301 faculty by 2021. 15.5 Curriculum Discussion: New programs require a lot of time. We need faster responses to community’s needs. Occupation deans are planning to streamline occupational, as well as academic programs. 16.1 Sale of a Portion of Land to City of Glendale for a new Bus Stop Discussion: This a new bus stop. 16.3 Lease of 7,478 sf in Desert Sky Station Educational Space Discussion: This not a dual enrollment effort. It is a continuation of and existing partnership. Tuition pays for lease. 18.5 Proposed Tuition & Fees Fiscal Year 2017-18 Discussion: No change in tuition rate of $86. There is a need to relate seat times to outcomes and fees charged. Make decisions relative to students being able to find jobs. MCCCD had highest tuition in the state and wondered if we had seen any student from other counties registering at Maricopa. 20.1 Proposed Fiscal Year 2017-18 Budget Discussion: This is the first draft. Have just received assessed valuation from Maricopa County and this will enable us to update property tax numbers. Presentation to be made at Budget and Finance Committee Meeting on February 28. Need to have a conversation on taxes and also bonds. We are facing a funding challenge and we no longer have a capital allotment. It was suggested that we review documentation on CTE and returns, as well Economic Impact Study that has that shows property has not changed. Is Bonding necessary and do we want to go forward. It is a tough process. Mr. Saar asked if the budget included a tax increase in order for us to be able to fund developmental ed if necessary. Response: In February the Board will discuss the Preliminary Adoption of the Budget and then move forward with final adoption in March. If direction is given to included taxes, the process will be moved out one month. Truth in Taxation Hearing will need to be scheduled and budget action published in newspaper.
President Gutierrez adjourned the Agenda Review at 5:30 p.m.

Minutes | February 28, 2017 Regular Board Meeting Page 2 of 15
ADJOURNMENT OF BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE MEETING CALL TO ORDER OF REGULAR BOARD MEETING SUBSTITUTIONS
What adjustments have been made to budget due to the decline in enrollment? Response: Enrollment is a self-funding process. Tuition loss is easy to calculate.
Are we doing some to turn decline around? Response: Strengthen outreach and recruitment services. We need to attract students and also maintain students by helping them be successful.
$31 million could be available with tuition increase.
Discussion about Fund Balance. We have unrestricted resources of $400 million. These are reserved for specific purposes and bonding purposes. We have a good cushion to weather the storm.
At a future meeting we need to look at a future bond or alternative. Property tax increase? Contingency transfer?
FTSE has been primary focus on budget allocations. Should it be based on needs? Is there any further discussion to base it on need? New revenue plus internal reallocation cuts and increases need to be considered. Look at actual need and see if we are meeting obligations.
Have a tax increase only for a need. We need to know what needs are. We have a very tight budget but we have choices. Need to rethink marketing efforts. Need to look into targeted populations program. Ask Presidents to give us their needs.
Calculate what 2% tax levy would generate. Ask colleges to make recommendations on their needs. Need to relook at reallocation process.
Special meeting of four hours should be held to discuss tax increase possibility, colleges needs, etc. We can slip on timeline but not by much.
Concluding remarks: It was decided to explore holding a four-hour special meeting on a Saturday to discuss budgetary issues. The Budget and Finance Committee Meeting adjourned at 6:00 p.m.
President Alfredo Gutierrez called the Regular Board Meeting of the Maricopa Community College District to order at 6:30 p.m. There were TWO substitutions for members of the CEC.

FACULTY EXECUTIVE COUNCIL (FEC) CLASSIFIED STAFF COUNCIL REPORT
There was no report. Kris Bliss, President of the Classified Staff Council, provided the following comments:
Minutes | February 28, 2017 Regular Board Meeting Page 10 of 15
President Gutierrez, Governing Board members, Chancellor Harper-Marinick, members of CEC and guests. I am presenting on behalf of the Classified Staff Council. Thank you Governing Board members for the resolution you passed earlier this evening providing clarification that you are welcoming feedback from employees in open session. It provides me the ability and wherewithal to comfortably speak about the matter I am here to present. Chancellor Harper-Marinick, thank you for inviting feedback at the State of the District and the upcoming town halls, and for reiterating the values you hold – inclusion, transparency, accountability, and respect for other people. While we have been attempting to work with Administration directly to resolve problems, we very much appreciate your invitation to communicate with you directly, particularly as some concerns have developed regarding our working relationship with Administration. We, the Classified Staff Council, and I as their representative, welcome this opportunity to address those concerns in an effort to assist you in your duties to monitor and steward. The framework for tonight’s report is a statement found in the District’s Strategic Commitments document: “As an employer, Maricopa County Community Colleges embraces an organizational culture committed to supporting, developing and growing its most tangible and valuable asset: the employees who make up its diverse and talented workforce. These strategic commitments will be achieved in a culture of collaboration, conversation, and communication focused on increasing employee diversity/inclusion, satisfaction, growth and performance having a positive impact on both the workplace and our communities.” Unfortunately, we have identified a pattern of behavior that appears to be inconsistent with these Strategic Commitments, and we wish to bring these concerns to your attention in the hope that they may be amicably resolved through a recommitment to the culture of collaboration and mutual respect. We would appreciate your leadership and direction in that regard. As you are aware, the Classified Staff Council is a relatively new structure, and significant efforts were made to develop that structure, write a constitution and bylaws governing the role and procedures of the Council. These governing documents make clear the elected members of the Council are responsible for presenting the interests of employees in the District’s system of shared governance. As such, it is essential that the Council is able to communicate freely and openly with the employees whose interests it is charged with representing. In some of the upcoming slides, you will see copies of emails that are affecting our ability to abide by our constitution and represent employees. Due to the parameters of power point, they will be hard to read for the audience, however I have provided full size copies of the documents to the Governing Board. This slide, as mentioned earlier, Governing Board, you can access this on page 8 of your packet, is an email exchange between Kristy Warfield, CSC Communications Officer and Special Projects Assistant to the Vice Chancellor of Human Resources, Megan Tormey. The VCHR has delegated
Minutes | February 28, 2017 Regular Board Meeting Page 11 of 15
the oversight of the CSC Officers to her Special Projects Assistant. This exchange is regarding the CSC Officer distribution list, which is one of the primary methods of communication with the CSC Officers regarding the business of the Council. In 2016, when the new Classified Staff Council was formed and the Officers were elected, one task was to create an email distribution list to provide for effective internal communication between, with and among the Officers and constituents. The Special Projects Assistant to the Vice Chancellor of HR created this list, and unbeknownst to us, she had the ability to monitor the communications between and among the officers and constituents. We discovered this in October 2016, when the Special Projects Assistant replied to an email that was sent to the officer distribution list. In the past, with former employee groups, HR was never an owner or manager of email distribution lists, nor in receipt of any emails from said lists. The ability to monitor communications that the Council Officers reasonably believed to be confidential creates distrust, rather than the organizational culture of collaboration, conversation, and communication to which the District aspires. Moreover, although we have requested that the Special Projects Assistant transfer exclusive ownership of the distribution list to the Officers so that she does not have access, she has yet to do so. She has failed to acknowledge our concerns about the chilling effect her access has on effective communication between and among the officers, and has claimed, incorrectly, that her role in administering the list is necessary to maintain continuity. Similarly, the Special Projects Assistant has attempted to assert control over the discretionary decisions that are provided to the Classified Staff Council, by the Constitution and Bylaws, to the elected Council members. One of my responsibilities under the Classified Staff Council Constitution and Bylaws is to identify individuals to represent Classified Staff perspectives on a variety of District committees. Beginning in December 2016, the Special Projects Assistant to the Vice Chancellor of HR directed me to remove a properly appointed individual from a committee on the grounds that the individual was not an elected member of the Council. The Constitution and Bylaws do not require Classified Staff committee representatives to be elected representatives of the Classified Staff Council; there are many reasons why it might be more effective or efficient for a particular committee to be staffed by someone who is not also serving on the Council. More importantly, the Constitution and Bylaws do not give administration representatives any say in the Classified Staff Council’s decisions regarding who to appoint to committees, much less the authority to control those decisions. I therefore declined to rescind the appointment. After more than two months of repeated strong disagreement, the Special Projects Assistant ordered me to remove this duly appointed representative. Although she reconsidered and rescinded that order shortly thereafter, the fact that she spent nearly three months attempting to assert authority she did not possess, going so far as to frame her direction as an order with which I would have to comply or face discipline for insubordination, seriously undermines the relationship of trust and mutual respect that is essential to the shared governance system we have adopted. The Division of Human Resources created this Classified Staff Council to ensure that employee voice was heard and respected, but their behavior has not conveyed a commitment to those principles. The last matter involves what appears to be tampering with the content and signatures of a written agreement entered into by then current
Minutes | February 28, 2017 Regular Board Meeting Page 12 of 15
employee group leaders and the Administration as highlighted by the next several slides. In 2015, employee group leaders entered into a voluntary MOU with Administration to develop a RIF policy for all classified staff. As you can see, in version 1, the signatures of the employee group leaders are dated February 2015. After significant delay, the Vice Chancellor of HR signed the document four months later in June 2015 and added some strikeouts to the negotiated language. In October 2015, the new employee group leaders requested a clean copy of the MOU be created and signed by the current leaders. This document, shown here as version 2, was created and signed by all parties and the VCHR February 26th 2016. Our understanding was this new agreed to and signed MOU would be uploaded and become a part of the Staff Policy Manual effective upon signature of VCHR as confirmed to in an email to all then current employee group leaders in March 2016. Recently, a document referred to here as version 3, was discovered online and apparently has been incorporated into the Staff Policy Manual as Appendix F. As you can see, the date is from 2015 and yet some of the language is from the document I identify as version 2, the document signed in 2016. None of the employee group leaders signed the document presented here, yet their signatures and dates, which match those affixed to Version 1 that they signed in 2015, appear with it as though they signed and agreed to Version 3. It appears as though some effort was made to cut and paste signatures from one document to the other, but the language on which the signatures were affixed is not the language that the signers actually reviewed and therefore ratified. When this matter was discovered earlier this month, February 2017, I, as CSC President, asked for an explanation by DOHR, but I have yet to receive one. This is a serious matter, and the lack of explanation or corrective action is very troubling. All three of these examples raise serious concerns regarding HR’s commitment to work productively and respectfully with the Council members who have been charged with providing employee input into the District’s system of shared governance. If employees are Maricopa’s “most tangible and valuable asset,” as this Board’s Strategic Plan indicates, then conduct that seeks to monitor and control their representatives, ignores their input, and violates the District’s commitments to them, risks devaluing this asset and destroying the culture of collaboration we have worked so hard to build. I hope what I have shown tonight gives the Governing Board pause and conviction that these actions and behaviors need to be looked into with much greater depth and independence by someone not beholden to the internal administrative power structure. And in the meantime, I ask that you take whatever interim steps you believe necessary and appropriate to make your strategic commitments to protect your employee assets from this mismanagement. Staff morale, engagement, support, and respect are critical to achieve student success. We, as CSC representatives and Officers, entered into this venture this year with the expressed intention that HR would be our partner and that things would be better than before. We entered this relationship believing in

good faith, and we remain willing to act in good faith – but we need to see that good faith taking place on both sides of this relationship. Adjunct Faculty Association President Gail Haase provided the following comments: Last Saturday, The AFA, along with the Maricopa Center for Learning and Instruction, hosted L.E.A.D. the Learning and Engagement Adjunct Development Conference at South Mountain. This was the first time we have been at South and it turned out to be an ideal venue. We would like to thank South for graciously hosting us. It was not easy-they are a very busy place on Saturdays. They also gave us a very generous supply of swag, and there was something for everyone. I think that contributed a great deal to the energized climate of the conference. For the first time, a past member of the board was our keynote speaker. Doyle Burke brought a well-organized explanation of institutional knowledge to the adjuncts and it was very well received. He explained some of the changes in growth, in funding, and future strategic planning. The adjuncts responded very well to his warm style, and they also asked questions that were really heartfelt, such as how to navigate and do your job well during a period of change and polarization. He talked about shifting demographics and systemic changes. It was gratifying to see how strongly the audience responded to Mr. Burke’s presentation. Because adjuncts are actually only connected by email, we built some social time into the conference. At the close, we hosted a mocktail hour, and had adjuncts sit with their school reps, but with a twist. This time, the tables were arranged in the proposed regions. This turned out very positively as they spontaneously discussed becoming a region. The exchange was intriguing as they talked about their school’s respective climate, and speculated as to what it might mean to become a region. At this conference, the videographers from Mesa’s Media Team were there to capture video on the benefits of professional development. They will create a video from this that will be used to promote professional development for adjuncts. Because adjuncts come from so many different disciplines and backgrounds, there are many sets of needs. Programs such as Adjunct Academy or Institute at Gateway and EDGE at Paradise, have paved the way. Now schools, such as Phoenix and South are participating and building similar programs and all have a vision for growing. The Centers for Teaching and Learning (CTL) are kicking off Spring Training, which is a major element of on their program called CTL Near You, which emphasizes that adjuncts can take any of the professional classes offered at any CTL in the district. So right now, there are many excellent training opportunities available. There are many more needs to address. Part of the mission of the adjunct district-wide Faculty Development Team has been to embrace the challenge of communicating and incentivizing these opportunities. I would also like to give a shout out to Maricopa Center for Learning and Instruction. This team, especially Stephanie Williams and Don Jensen-Bobadilla, works very hard to help adjuncts, whether with our events or

11.1 Faculty Emeritus Status for
Sharon Fagan
Dr. Maria Harper-Marinick
Dr. William Guerriero
Recommendation Recommendation for Sharon Fagan, Education Faculty at Chandler-Gilbert Community College to receive
Emeritus Status with the Maricopa County Community College District.
Justification After establishing herself as an outstanding classroom teacher in Mesa Public Schools, Sharon Fagan joined
the English faculty at CGCC in 1995. Over the past 27 years her extraordinary contributions to her teaching
disciplines, Chandler-Gilbert Community College and the Maricopa District—as well as her positive impact on
students—have been and will continue to be an inspiration to all of us. Sharon is a dedicated and visionary
teacher and leader, and it is not an exaggeration to say she is the personification of the art of teaching and
faculty professional development at CGCC. Her extensive background and experience in educational methods,
curriculum, assessment, and classroom management have shaped the teaching philosophies of thousands of
students and have served as the basis of numerous faculty development and mentoring programs enabling
faculty at CGCC and throughout the District to hone their instructional skills while mastering the art of
teaching. Sharon is a master teacher who has served in a wide range of leadership positions: As English faculty
she chaired the Arizona English Teachers Association Statewide Conference for 4 years, the Teachers for
Peace conference for 3 years, and she served as CGCC’s First-year Composition Coordinator for 5 years; In
2000 Sharon co-founded CGCC’s Teacher Education Program at the Pecos Campus and transitioned from
English to Education faculty; she went on to serve as the Teacher Education Program Coordinator for 15 years
and chaired the Maricopa District Teacher Education Instructional Council for 3 years; her involvement in the
Instructional Council included organizing and presenting District-wide Teacher Education Dialog Days for 4
years; Sharon brought wide recognition to CGCC’s Teacher Education Program by organizing and hosting
many annual meetings of the San Tan Education Advisory Council and through longstanding service-learning
projects at Humphrey Elementary, CGCC’s adopted school; annual events for Humphrey students in which
Sharon played a key role include Dr. Seuss’s Birthday, Book Joy Jamboree, Celebration of Culture, and
Diversity Day. As if all this program and discipline-related leadership were not enough, Sharon somehow
made time for a central role in the following College activities: She served CGCC and the District as a Faculty
Development Coordinator for 10 years; she established the College’s new faculty orientation and mentorship
program in 1996, and continued to improve the program by introducing and co-directing CGCC’s professional
learning community, the Network for Excellence, for 5 years, and through the recent addition of the Peer
Assistance and Review Mentorship Program, which she coordinated for 3 years; Sharon helped establish the
formal structure and processes for CGCC’s assessment of student learning outcomes and chaired the Outcomes
Committee for 3 years. When it comes to teaching, developing future teachers, and advancing the art and
science of teaching, you could say that Sharon has done it all. Her commitment to excellence and continuous
improvement is obvious to all who have known and worked with her. Her spirit of service and tireless dedication to students lives on in the classrooms and hallways of CGCC.

11.4 Emeritus Distinction
Carl Couch
Scottsdale Community College
Dr. Maria Harper-Marinick
Dr. Jan Gehler
Recommendation
In accordance with the Governing Board Policy it is recommended that the Governing Board award
Emeritus Distinction to Carl Couch, Vice President of Administrative Services.
Justification
Carl Couch began his Maricopa journey as a Scottsdale Community College student, in 1987. Carl
served Maricopa as an internal auditor before coming to SCC as the Manager College Business Office in
1999. In 2000 he was the Director of Administration and Student Services and in 2004 became the Dean
of Administrative Services, which was expanded to be Vice President of Administrative Services.
Along with Dr. Art DeCabooter, Carl shepherded SCC through many years and many changes. As any
‘budget guy’ worth his salt, Carl’s fiduciary responsibility usually yielded a ‘no, we can’t do that,’ as a
first response. This earned him the nickname of Mr. Sunshine. But veteran and even newcomer
Artichokes always knew that Carl respected a good idea, well presented, and would find a way to support,
as long as it clearly served students. Students’ welfare and enabling the very best in our teaching and
learning environment, were his highest aims.
A man of great integrity, Carl left his imprint all across the college. From the learning laboratories of the
new Natural Sciences Building, to the exquisite Biology lab known as the Two Waters Circle, to the
classiest and high quality Film School facilities, to our prominent Emeritus Wall, to several drainage
basins camouflaged as inviting student gathering places, every inch says ‘students first.’ That
commitment to ‘students first’ is also now reflected in our Administrative Services employees’ work ethic
and the way they approach college challenges.
Carl’s quiet demeanor belies a passionate concern for students, for our faculty and all employees, and for
our community partners. No president could have asked for a better or more competent and talented VP at
her side.
Please approve this recommendation for emeritus distinction for Carl Couch.

Item Number Item Title Responsible Agents
12.1 Sale of a Portion of Land to City of Glendale
for Intersection Improvements Glendale Community College
Ms. Gaye Murphy Dr. Teresa Leyba-Ruiz
Recommendation We recommend that the Governing Board approve the sale of a portion of the District property located at the southeast corner of Glendale Community College to the City of Glendale for intersection improvements. The offered purchase price for the 198 square foot parcel is $105.00
Justification
The Capital Development Advisory Council (CDAC) reviewed this item through a special electronic meeting and recommended that it be submitted for Governing Board action.
As part of the Glendale’s intersection improvement project at 59th Avenue and Olive Avenue, the City requests the sale of a very small parcel along Olive Avenue for intersection improvements. This sale is part of the same City project as the recent Board item to sell a small parcel for a new bus stop. This parcel, long thought to be owned by Salt River Project, due to an error in the legal recording of the transfer deed, was recently was corrected to show ownership by the District.
The City of Glendale retained an independent appraiser to recommend a fair market value of $105.00 for the land purchase. The requested parcel sale is 198 square feet with an offered purchase price of $105.00, as a residual parcel. There is no cost to the District for this sale or escrow process.

Existing Language - Proposed Deletion 3.4 Monitoring the Chancellor’s Performance
The Board will systematically and rigorously monitor the Chancellor's job performance to determine
the extent to which Outcomes are being achieved and whether operational activities fall within
parameters established in Chancellor Limitations policies.
1. The purpose of monitoring is simply to determine the degree to which the Chancellor is fulfilling the
Board's expectations as set forth in its governing policies. Only information that enables the Board to assess
accomplishment of Outcomes and compliance with Chancellor Limitations is considered relevant.
2. A given policy may be monitored in one or more of three methods:
A. Chancellor Report: The Chancellor conveys to the Board, in writing, policy interpretations as well
as compliance information relevant to the policy under review. As appropriate in a given context,
the Chancellor may present information to justify the "reasonableness" of his/her interpretation.
B. External Report: Discovery of compliance information by a disinterested, external auditor,
inspector, or judge who is selected by and reports directly to the Board. Such reports must assess
executive performance only against policies of the Board (as reasonably interpreted by the
Chancellor), not those of the external party unless the Board has previously indicated in
Governing Board policy that party's opinion to be the standard for assessment.
C. Direct Board Inspection: A designated Board Member, committee, or the Board as a whole
assesses accomplishment of, or compliance with, a given policy, as reasonably interpreted by the
Chancellor.
3. In every case, the Board will judge whether a) the Chancellor's interpretation is reasonable and b)
whether data demonstrate reasonable accomplishment of, or compliance with, the Chancellor's
interpretation. Interpretations determined by the Board to be unreasonable, or data determined not to
demonstrate reasonable accomplishment of or compliance with a Board policy, as reasonably
interpreted, will be subject to a remedial process agreed to by the Board.
4. All policies instructing the Chancellor will be monitored at a frequency and by a method chosen by the
Board. The Board may choose to monitor any policy by any method at any time, but will ordinarily
depend on the schedule appearing on the subsequent page.
5. The Board will have a formal evaluation of the Chancellor in May of each year. The evaluation will be
based primarily on a summary/review of the Board's judgment of the Chancellor's performance, per the
criteria and process outlined above, during the previous twelve months.

17.1 Budget Analysis Report Ms. Gaye Murphy
Fund 1: General Unrestricted Fund Ms. Kim Granio
For the Eight Months Ending 2/28/2017
Expenditure Summary: $394.8M (year to date); projected expenditure at year end: $660.3M
Typically evenly spread across each month, as the majority is payroll and benefits which are recorded
every two weeks.
53.8% of expenditures have been recognized year to date (versus 54.2% in 15/16, 50.9% in 14/15, and
55.4% in 13/14).
21.1% of the budget remains unexpended or unencumbered (versus 17.5% in 15/16, 26.2% in 14/15,
and 20.1% in 13/14).
Revenue Summary: $461.7M (year to date); projected revenue at year end: $663.8M
The two major revenues, property taxes and tuition, are collected in cycles. Tuition revenue is
generally collected at the beginning of each semester while property tax revenue is mostly collected in
the fall and spring when semi-annual payments are due from property owners.
67.0% of the budgeted revenue has been recognized year to date (versus 67.2% in 15/16, 67.1% in
14/15, and 68.1% in 13/14).
Fund Balance and Financial Stability Requirements
Projections are for the Fund 1 balance to increase by ~$3.6M (from $173.6M to $177.2M) in FY 16/17.
MCCCD is required to maintain a financial stability balance equal to 8% of the annual projected
revenue. This currently equates to $53.1M. The remaining fund balance of $124.1M is comprised of
college carryforward, designations for future operations, minimum financial condition measure for
future years, allowance for student bad debt, priority initiatives, capital master planning, reserves for
potential claims/contingency, enrollment growth/retention, and a projected undesignated balance of
$1.1M.
Financial activities of the District comply with the Governing Board Policies, Chancellor
Interpretations 2.4 and 2.6, though Restricted Fund revenue collection often lags behind expenditures
given that the nature of grants and financial aid is one of reimbursement for expenditures and awards.
The Governing Board contingency beginning balance is $900,000. The remaining balance as of
2/28/17 is $900,000.
Items of Particular Interest: Substantial Deviations from Budget or Expectations
None.

Effective in FY 16, the State of Arizona no longer provides financial support to the Maricopa County Community College District.
Includes transfers for programs accounted for in other funds of the district, such as the Maricopa and Southwest Skill Centers, mandatory match associated with
federal programs (financial aid and Small Business Development Center), funds for Meet and Confer, etc. Increase in percent recognized is due to FY17 Life
Without Bond Funding allocation to the Plant Fund.
Includes statutory waivers, employee and dependent waivers, non-capital equipment, bad debt expense relating to student accounts, etc. Increase in percent
recognized is due to the budget for academic scholarships decreasing, while the expenditures increased.
Includes amounts carried from one fiscal year to the next by the colleges and district office units, amount of property tax levied but not collected, basic contingency
for unexpected needs as prioritized by the Governing Board.
Includes allocations for enrollment growth funding (reserved to help fund additional courses for increased student enrollment), funds for incremental costs from
capital development facilities, etc. Transfers will be made near the end of FY17.

uncollected tax levy of $3,916,502. Percent recognized is consistent with prior year.
Includes mileage, in and out of state travel, international travel, registration, hotel, airfare, etc. Decrease in percent recognized is due to timing differences in
recording transactions from FY16 to FY17 and a small increase in budget. Percent recognized is consistent with years prior to FY16.
Includes budget capacity to allow colleges and district office divisions to carry forward up to 3.5% of operating budgets from one fiscal year to the next, enrollment
growth funding for the colleges, and contingencies for unanticipated expenses. In prior years, 100% of the budgeted amount was recognized for reporting purposes;
however, beginning with the Dec-14 Report, fund balance will not be recognized as a source until used. Therefore, the percent recognized from prior years will not
be relevant to the current year's calculation.
Idle monies of the District are invested per Governing Board policy and the income is available for operating purposes. Based on accounting standards, the District
adjusts the value of its investments monthly to that of the market and these adjustments are reflected in the investment income line. Therefore, the actual amount
for this revenue line can fluctuate up and down over the course of the year. The projected revenue is what the District expects the final income amount to be at the
end of the fiscal year regardless of the increases and decreases that can occur monthly.
Monies paid to the District by SRP for use in current operations as a substitution for property taxes. Percent recognized is consistent with prior year.
Tuition and fees received from students whether directly or from a third party. Percent recognized is consistent with prior year.
Tuition and fees received from students who do not reside within the state or are not otherwise eligible for in-state tuition, whether directly or from a third party.
Decrease in percent recognized is due to a timing difference in recording Educational Service Partnership adjustment for FY16.
Counties that do not have a community college district provide monies for operations to the districts where their students attend. The variance in percent
recognized is due to a timing difference of receiving payments.
Includes funds recovered from previously written off student debts as well as other small types of revenues. Percent recognized is consistent with prior year.
Includes funds received from students for various fees such as registration, transcripts, evaluation by examination registration fees, music lessons, etc. Percent
