NEW BUSINESS 6.1 Execution of Chancellor’s Contract Trustee Kelly MOVED to approve the contract as presented before the Board tonight. Trustee Zimmerman seconded. Chair Kuhn clarified as an item of information this contract differs slightly from the contract passed on January 5, 2012 because it deletes a travel request the Chancellor had previously made, and he has graciously withdrawn his interest in that travel request. Trustee Davis stated if the Chancellor wanted to withdraw the travel request, he should have done so a week or two ago. This is a matter of principle. This doesn’t have anything to do with the Chancellor, but for the Board to do the right thing. The Board took a vote and it was decided negotiations had ended. Tonight the Board was to vote on the contract that was negotiated on January 5th, and she doesn’t feel the Board should be deviating from that. With regard to the contract currently on the table, Trustee Davis stated she will not be approving it. Trustee Sullivan cited the original motion that was included in the Board’s January meeting packet: “Move the Board of Trustees authorize the Board Chair to execute the Chancellor’s contract as approved at the January 5, 2012 special meeting.” Trustee Kelly has now made a motion for a different contract. The motion at the January 5th meeting read: “Move to approve the substance of the proposed Chancellor employment contract Board of Trustees January 17, 2012 Page 8 of 11 and authorize the attorney to make any minor necessities (formatting and stylist change), not substantive in nature, and to vote on the authorization for the Board Chair to execute the agreement at the regular Board meeting on January 17th.” Dr. Sullivan stated he came to the meeting tonight to vote on the execution of the contract, not to renegotiate it. He believes the Board has a moral dilemma – they had an agreement and voted on it, which was approved by the Board, and the Board has spoken. Trustee Davis said it is the principal, and she was quite surprised this even came up. The Board came to a decision, and she finds it very disappointing trying to change it at the last minute. Trustee Ritter stated the following: “ The concerns I have regarding this contract should not be interpreted as lack of support for Chancellor Timothy Meyer. My concerns are with the provisions in the contract that have an adverse impact on the governance of the College and the fiduciary responsibilities of each Board member. Other concerns are with: The length of the contract and the ‘evergreen/roll-over provision.’ The effective date of the contract is January 1, 2012. Currently, the Chancellor has a contract that is in place until June 30, 2012. The ‘new’ contract replaces the original and becomes retroactive to January 1, 2012. The economic provisions, perks and benefits are excessive and not defensible in our College that is struggling to be fiscally responsible.” Trustee Sullivan stated again that at the January 5th meeting the Board voted for a contract, and at that time Trustee Sullivan said he made a comment as to whether the Board was negotiating in good faith or playing games. To change the contract at the eleventh hour and take out a provision the Board already voted on seems to him feels like playing games. He continued we are not even at the point of negotiating as we have already negotiated. We have the contract. All we are here to do today is to give authority to the Chair to execute the contract with the Chancellor and move on with the business of OCC. Trustee Kelly stated a contract is not a contract until it is signed. He agreed the contract was negotiated at our prior meeting, and we agreed to end negotiations and agreed on the contract. He stated he contacted Chancellor Meyer this morning regarding the business travel clause. He stated he missed this clause when reviewing the contract until Trustee Ritter brought it to the Board’s attention at the January 5th special meeting. It is his understanding the Chancellor is voluntarily withdrawing that request. Trustee Kelly continued he would like to talk about the substance of the contract, which financially doesn’t significantly change for the Chancellor with regards to the terms of his current existing contract. He wants to get rid of the reference to perks, and this contract is intended to give the Chancellor security. He went on that if the Board wishes to terminate the Chancellor without cause, there will be a significant penalty to the Board. Trustee Kelly concluded he believes this is a good contract. Board of Trustees January 17, 2012 Page 9 of 11 Trustee Sullivan said that during the January 5th special meeting, both Mary Ann McGee (OCCFA President) and Trustee Ritter referenced the travel issue. That was the meeting when the contract was supposed to be discussed and questions asked, and Dr. Sullivan asked Trustee Kelly why he didn’t address the travel issue at that time. Instead of moving forward, he feels like the Board is moving backward. Trustee Zimmerman remarked that she and Trustee Kelly were the only two Board members interested in discussing the contract at the special meeting. She feels the Board is wasting time going back and forth and, therefore, called the question. Trustee Ritter clarified she also wish to discuss the contract. Chair Kuhn called the question. AYES: Bryant, Kelly, Kuhn, Sullivan, Zimmerman NAYS: Davis, Ritter Chair Kuhn called for the vote on Trustee Kelly’s motion. AYES: Bryant, Kelly, Kuhn, Sullivan, Zimmerman NAYS: Davis, Ritter Trustee Davis stated since the contract is approved, she would like to retake the vote to make it unanimous. AYES: Bryant, Davis, Kelly, Kuhn, Sullivan, Zimmerman NAYS: Ritter 6.2 College Brain Trust Presentation Dr. George Boggs, Project Leader and Point of Contact, for the College Brain Trust addressed the Board regarding his company’s proposal to provide consulting services to OCC in order to strengthen college operations and organization, academic, and financial structures in order to improve student success. CBT is a comprehensive community college consulting firm that customizes expert teams to meet client college needs. Their consultants consist of former CEOs, senior administrators, and faculty who have dedicated their lives to serving community colleges. Their projects normally deal with organizational assessments, reorganizations, strategic and master planning, financial realignment, Board workshops, internal governance reviews, compensation studies, and accreditation issues. Board of Trustees January 17, 2012 Page 10 of 11 In addition to pointing out some of OCC’s strengths and weaknesses, Dr. Boggs also detailed some of the challenges OCC will be facing; i.e., significant budget shortfalls through 2025 and needs to review its resource allocation model to ensure scarce resources are effectively utilized; to implement program review across all college areas and create tools to evaluate future program needs; and complete a comprehensive review and revision of academic policies and procedures, just to name a few. CBT provided a two-year plan. Some of the first-year tasks include enhancing data capacity and application; gathering information from benchmark colleges; clarifying lines of authority, reporting and accountability; and establishing program review criteria and tools to evaluate future program needs. A few two-year tasks noted include reviewing and updating college budget allocation model with a focus on student success; developing a performance appraisal system for administrators, and recommending measures for maintaining a balanced budget and continued fiscal health. In conclusion, Dr. Boggs stated CBT will work with OCC leadership and the appropriate college groups on solutions and an implementation timeline for recommendations. CBT Team leaders will meet with the Chancellor’s Cabinet to clarify expectations and determine timelines, as well as meet with the College community to answer questions and solicit input. CBT is committed to the continued success of OCC. 6.3 OCC Smoking Policy (First Reading) Trustee Ritter MOVED the Board of Trustees approve the first reading of the proposed “Smoking in College Facilities” Policy and Procedure 2.2.4(C), to be renamed “Smoking on College Property.” Trustee Bryant seconded.
