ACC trustees reviewed building plans and a reconfiguration of existing space at their meeting Tuesday night.
A new patio with a game room is being considered as well as enlarging the Stadler Conference Room in the cafeteria complex of the Allen Community College campus.
Trustees considered various funding options, including general obligation bonds, certificates of participation and a revenue bond. The general obligation bonds could net the lowest interest rate, but take the longest to execute due to organizing a county election. The second avenue, certificates of participation, could happen in quick order if no significant public protest is wagered within a 30-day time period. Revenue bonds would carry the highest interest rates.
IN OTHER business:
— A recent report on high school seniors who picked up credit hours at ACC from 2015 to 2016 showed 85 percent matriculated to higher education.
— The college’s weapons policy was clarified to say while it allows firearms it does not allow pellet guns, BB guns, air guns, fireworks, knives of more than four inches in length and any object or substance designed to cause injury.
— Teresa Vincent, retention specialist from the Burlingame campus, and Brock McGinnis, assistant men’s basketball coach and Horton Hall director, resigned.
— Amanda Logback is the new assistant cheer and dance coach and residence hall director. Rhonda Shepherd switched roles from administration assistant to financial aid specialist.
