  1. FLIP CHART REVIEW

David Moore presented a prototype of the flip chart for the committee to review. He stated he planned to email the entire document to all committee members, as well as Gilbert Contreras, for review and comments. He stated that he would like the committee to try to finalize the prototype so that next semester he can forward to the Emergency Operations Group to begin the approval process. It would go from that group to the Executive Cabinet and then to the Coordinating Committee before being finalized for posting. Brian Cable mentioned that there appears to be two pages that may be duplicates. David Moore said he would take a look at it and have Luz Ocampo make any necessary changes. Brian Cable also mentioned that he had not received a copy of the flip chart from Ventura College yet. In general, the members in attendance had a favorable opinion of the prototype.

  1. ITEMS FROM THE FLOOR

David Moore briefly addressed the Strategic Planning Goals. The Planning and Budget chair has asked for an update on the FY 15-16 strategic goals. He said that the Safety Committee had one strategic goal regarding working with ASCC to review safety concerns on campus. He said the only response to such a goal would be “ongoing”, so that is how the committee will respond.

David Moore said that he attended two of the Safety Forums and that the ones he went to were well attended. He relayed the format of the forum, the speakers present and the topics presented. Emergency procedures on campus were discussed and a video on a shooter scenario was shown.

Judi Holmes said there are lots of part time workers on campus that work indirectly with the college, and they need to be informed in regards to safety awareness. She was referring to the many contract workers, special guest instructors, speakers or other persons on campus who are not directly employed by the college. Brian Cable said that they may not have college emails, so they may have to be reached in a different manner. The committee agreed with Judi but more investigation needs to happen to understand how the information could be delivered to these workers.

David Moore also said he had reached out to Solomon Namala regarding the replacement for Debbie Jensen. David Moore also said we need to contact Gilbert Contreras, in Student Activities, regarding the student representative. Thecommittee has not had student participation for the last several meetings.
