There were no public comments. 

Damon Felice, Townsend Management, Inc. provided an update on the College’s 

construction projects. The complete report can be found at: 

http://www.hartnell.edu/board/packets/April_packet.pdft. Earlier, at 4:00 p.m., Mr. 

Felice conducted a workshop on the Measure H Bond funds and processes. 

(Appendix A) 

Accreditation: Dr. Helm reported that the Accreditation Site Visit has been 

scheduled for April 29-30. She thanked Dr. Kathleen Rose, Board Members, 

Patricia Donohue, Bill Freeman, and Lorena Moreno for reviewing the final 

document. She was pleased to report that, while due March 15, the final report was 

submitted early. She requested that the Board review the development calendar in 

the report and that they read the Article: Introduction to the Brown Act, which is the 

May reading assignment. At the request of Trustee Healy, beginning with the May 

board meeting, a portion of the meeting will be committed to reviewing board 

policies. 

Finances: Dr. Helm reminded the Board that we started the year with a $1.3 million 

budget deficit which was actually a $2.3 million swing between anticipated income 

and expenses for fiscal year 2008. The difference grew to a negative $3 million 

because of the anticipated overspending of Western Stage and the half million cut 

from the State. By some “almost miracle” it now appears that if we really hold on 

spending (and maybe hold our breath) we can close that 3 million gap and close the 


CONSENT ACTION 

year on June 30 at zero. This means that, for the first time in years, we would not 

have engaged in a deficit spending. In fact, we are currently projecting a 9.88% 

reserve versus 3-5% projected earlier. One unknown is the impact of the unreconciled 

funds at Monterey County Office of Education. The worse case scenario 

would reduce the reserves to around 7% by June 30. Clearly, if the State cuts the 

community colleges by 10% all of our reserves would be gone In that case, many 

other community colleges will be in the same situation in California. However, at 

this point, it appears that our reserves would enable us to pay our bills for 60-90 days 

should the legislature fail to pass the budget on time. 

Dr. Helm thanked the Board and Barbara Yesnosky for their leadership and thanked 

staff including, Beverely Grova, Neil Ledford, Joe Welch, Joe DeRuosi, and Mike 

Thomas for bringing in grant funds to support food safety and construction 

programs. 

Communication: Dr. Helm reported on the Party in the Library event scheduled on 

April 19, and urged the Board’s participation. She also reported that she has been 

asked to participate in the Naval Post Graduate’s 50 year Gala; that Hartnell’s 

commencement is scheduled on June 6; that a presentation of the 2020 Vision Study 

was presented to Common Ground, SUBA, and other business leaders; that, she met 

with Sam Farr, agriculture leaders, Mayor Donohue, and other elected officials to 

meet the first ever UC Vice President for Agriculture and Natural Resources, Daniel 

Dooley. She pointed out that the 2020 Study has catapulted Hartnell College to the 

front of the parade with the business community. The faculty had a successful flex 

day on March 31 where they celebrated César Chavez, which included speaker, Bill 

Monning who spoke about the struggles of workers. The next scheduled flex day is 

April 22, 2008 – a tour of the agri-businesses in the valley – both flex days were 

planned and coordinated by faculty. In conclusion, Dr. Helm announced that the 

City of Salinas has officially named the week of April 7 as Hartnell College Nursing 

Week. 

Search for Supt./President: Tamberly Petrovich provided an update on the search for 

the Superintendent/President stating that paper screening has started and is expected 

to end sometime next week. The scheduling of interviews is April 9. Tentative dates 

for interviews are mid-April. She also reported that the pool of applicants is robust. 

Kari stated that a sub-committee of the Board will need be developed to interview 

questions. Along with Kari, Pat and Elia agreed to serve on the sub-committee. Kari 

also urged the entire Board to bring forth any questions. 

On a motion by, Patricia Donohue, seconded by Kevin Healy, and unanimously 

carried, the Board moved to approve Consent Actions Items IV. B through IV. K. 

Trustee Freeman asked to have further discussion on Action Item E, Lease 

Agreement with the United States Department of Agriculture – Alisal Campus 

Farmland, and Action Item F, Lease Agreement with University of California –

President Valdés asked to pull for a separate motion and vote Consent Action Item,

motion and vote for added Consent Action Item J, Minutes of Regular Board

Approve Budget Revisions 

Area: 




Number: 

Status: 

V.A. 

Action (Roll Call Vote) 

That the Board of Trustees approves Budget Revisions numbered 7484 to 7546. 

Summary: 

The Adopted Budget each year represents the staff’s best estimate of revenue and expenditures. 

As the year progresses and actual amounts are known, budget changes must be made. 

Revisions to the Adopted Budget are subject to approval by the Board of Trustees. 

Budget Revisions consist of transfers between major object expenditures or from the 

appropriations for contingencies, as well as budgetary increases for the use of funds not included 

in the original budget. 

All budget entry (BE) numbers are assigned automatically assuring a complete sequence 

accounting. Numeric breaks on the attached report are due to the exclusion of budget transfers, 

which do not require Board approval. The accompanying Budget Journal Entry Detail Report 

was produced directly from our software. 


The unrestricted General Fund budget remains unchanged. 

The restricted General Fund budget increased $221,375.02 due to increased allocations to 

programs and/or to new programs.

VI. Did the district have significant events for the quarter (include incurrence of long-term debt, settlement of 

audit findings or legal suits, significant differences in budgeted revenues or expenditures, borrowing of funds 

(TRANs), issuance of COPs, etc.)? 

If yes, list events and their financial ramifications. (Enter explanation below, include additional pages if needed.) 

Total draws on the TRAN were $2,840,000 in December 2007. All repayments have been made on time. The balance remaining is $1,231,000. 

The district selected Vicente, Lloyd, Stutzman as its external auditor for a three-year period beginning with the 2007-2008 fiscal year. 

The district is working with the external auditors to determine the entries necessary to account for the cash account discovered at the county in January 2008. (Refer to the Q2 report) 

The district projects a nearly break-even bottom line on the unrestricted general fund for the current fiscal year. The improvement from budget is primarily a result of salary and fringe 

benefit savings from unfilled vacant positions. In addition, the district saw an increase in FTES with fewer sections offered because of the new guaranteed class schedule implemented with 

the Spring 2008 semester. 

The projected ending reserve balance does not include a potential reduction (prior period adjustment), which could be as much as $1 million. This is related to the discovery of the county 

bank account mentioned above. If it is necessary to do the prior period adjustment, the reserve percentage would still be at 7.1%. 

The district began negotiations with all three bargaining units in the 3rd quarter. The current contracts terminate June 30, 2008. 

The district has contracted with Total Compensation Systems to provide an actuarial study of other post employment benefits in accordance with GASB 45. 

VII.Does the district have significant fiscal problems that must be addressed? This year? NO 

Next year? YES

At its March 2008 board meeting, the Board of Trustees approved a reorganization of the management structure. The reorganization eliminated 15 manager positions and created 7, with a 

net decrease of 8. Expected cost savings in the 2008-2009 fiscal year total $1.0 million. The projected deficit for 2008-2009 is $200 thousand. This includes projected cost savings of $1.2 

million, $1.0 million of which has already been identified with the reorganization. This projection does not include a possible decrease of 10% from the State. A 10% reduction of 

computational revenue would be approximately $3.0 million, which would essentially deplete the unrestricted reserve balance.

At the March 4, 2008 meeting, the Board of Trustees approved the Reorganization 

Committee Recommendations which resulted in the creation of seven new management 

classifications. The proposed classifications and job descriptions are the result of that 

action. The Reorganization Committee developed the job descriptions, presented them to 

the campus community for comment and finalized the descriptions based on that input. 

With the placement of the proposed Associate Vice Presidents at Management Salary 

Schedule Range I (a), it is necessary to upgrade the salary range of the currently filled 

Associate Vice President, Administrative Information Systems and Library Services 

classification to conform to the salary range of the new Associate Vice President 

classifications. 

The Reorganization Committee Recommendation included elevating the Foundation 

Director and Dean of Institutional Development and Advancement to the Vice President 

level. The proposed new title reflects this change. The elevation of this position from the 

Dean level to the Vice President level requires a requisite change in Salary Range. 

The creation of an Executive Vice President level requires the creation of a new salary 

range on the Management Salary Schedule. 


The increase in salary and benefits associated with the upgrades in salary range is 

approximately $39,500 annually. There is no budget implication associated with creating 

the new classifications. The budget implication of allocating a new position in the budget 

is addressed on that Board Item.
