11 Introduction/Planning Process Facilities Master Plan November 2010 INTRODUCTION / PLANNING PROCESS Arapahoe Community College (ACC or College) has served Arapahoe, Douglas and portions of Jefferson Counties for more than 40 years. The first classes were held at Arapahoe Junior College in the Fall of 1966 with 550 students and 23 faculty members in temporary facilities. The College has continued to grow and currently has over 7,200 headcount students annually pursuing upwards of 130 degree and certificate programs. The College s main campus (ACC-Main Campus) is located on a 51-acre site in Littleton, Colorado adjacent to the downtown area and light rail. To effectively provide on-going services to its service area, ACC offers courses and programs at multiple locations as well as an extended campus site in Parker. In 2000, ACC, in partnerships with education, business and the Douglas County community, opened the University Center at Chaparral (ACC-Parker Campus) in Parker, Colorado. Section 5 of this report is dedicated to campus planning for ACC-Parker Campus. The purpose of the master plan is to identify the space required to serve the academic mission of the College and to propose how the physical environment needs to respond to best serve the mission of the College. At ACC-Main Campus, the physical response for this master plan proposes the construction/ remodel of the 3rd floor main building for STEM programs (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). This may include allied health programs and physical sciences. The plan also includes the replacement/remodel of the physical plant building and campus wide site improvements. The plan proposes an analysis on the growth of academic and professional programs in Douglas County. The specific recommendations for the Douglas County project will follow after the completion of a feasibility study to determine appropriate locations and programs for this growing population in the College s service area. Process Initially, Paulien & Associates, Inc. was provided with facilities, enrollment, course, and staffing data from Fall The facilities data included room identification, square footage, room use, and departmental information on a room-by-room basis. data consisted of Fall 2007 student full-time equivalent (FTE) for on-campus students and projections through The course data included the course number and description, enrollment, start and stop times, and meeting locations. The staffing data contained headcount and FTE by major employee category on a departmental basis. The data provided a snapshot of the activities for the Fall 2007 semester, which is used for the master planning base year. An overview presentation of the master planning process was delivered to the ACC Executive Team in May The consultant conducted on-campus work sessions throughout the summer and early fall of Work sessions were held with representatives of the instructional divisions, Student Services, Community Education, the Learning Resource Center, Child Care Center, and Technology Services, among others. During these on-campus work sessions, the consultant gained insights into the space needs and issues of the various programs, and elicited input on future programmatic changes for the duration 3

12 Introduction/Planning Process Facilities Master Plan of the Master Plan. Interviews included Arapahoe Community College administration, including the vice-presidents and other staff. In November, 2008, a preliminary presentation of findings was made to the Executive Leadership Team. During this meeting, comments were elicited regarding the physical response to the space needs analysis resulting in several Capital Improvement Projects (CIP s) for the College. An initial master plan document was submitted and approved by all, and was forwarded to the Colorado Community College System (CCCS) for review. In May 2010, the CCCS updated utilization guidelines and requested ACC to recalculate the space needs analysis using the new guidelines. In the process, campus representatives decided to use Fall 2009 as the base year for the master plan. The consultant obtained a Fall 2009 course file and generated the space needs analysis using the new CCCS guidelines. The findings were presented to the campus and capital improvement projects were revised to reflect the updated space needs analysis. Key Findings ACC-Main Campus had 3,140 FTE on-campus students during Fall 2009, which is the base year for this study. Student enrollment projections (credit bearing) were provided by the College and are estimated to be 3,640 FTE for oncampus students by Fall ACC-Parker Campus had 121 FTE students during Fall 2009, with growth to 221 FTE students projected for Fall However, it must be noted that ACC-Parker Campus also provides workforce training and professional development courses and programs, which are not included in the for credit FTE projections. Based on the space needs analysis, ACC-Main Campus requires approximately 247,700 assignable square feet (ASF) of space to serve the current student enrollment, staffing and programs. As the campus currently contains approximately 268,200 ASF, there is a surplus of slightly more than 20,000 ASF at the base year. When projected student FTE, staffing and new programs are factored into the analysis, the campus will need approximately 281,000 ASF at the target year (Fall 2014), which is a deficit of more than 11,000 ASF, compared to existing space on campus. ACC-Parker Campus currently has approximately 11,000 ASF of usable space, and requires more than 9,000 ASF at its current enrollment level for a space surplus of nearly 2,100 ASF. A doubling of projected enrollments within the 5 year plan horizon will result in the need for approximately 16,500 ASF a deficit of more than 5,000 ASF. Following review of the space needs analysis, demographic data, and campus work sessions, the consultant proposed a number of planning scenarios. These include: GF CIP-1: Renovation of Cafeteria and Food Service 4

Mission To provide innovative and responsive educational and economic opportunities in an accessible, inclusive environment that promotes success for students, employees and the community. Role Arapahoe Community College draws its role and mission from Colorado Revised Statute, , which was amended to read: There is hereby established a state system of community and technical colleges which shall be under the management and jurisdiction of the state board for community colleges and occupational education. The mission of the community colleges shall be to serve Colorado residents who reside in the service areas by offering a broad range of general, personal, vocational, and technical education programs. Each college shall be a two-year college. No college shall impose admission requirements upon any student. The objects of the community and technical colleges shall be to provide educational programs to fill the occupational needs of youth and adults in technical and vocational fields, two-year transfer educational programs to qualify students for admission to the junior year at other colleges and universities, basic skills, workforce development, and a broad range of personal and vocational education for adults. Vision To be the leader in community college education for the State of Colorado. Values Life-Long Learning We value upholding the highest academic standards and support the growth and success of each individual. Integrity We encourage the free exchange of ideas in an open environment that embraces honesty, respect, and personal responsibility. Community We foster trusting relationships and respectful communications through collaboration with our students, employees, and community partners. 9

18 Program Information Facilities Master Plan History ACC stands on grounds with an educational heritage that began 129 years ago with the opening of a one-room school for the Peabody Housing Development in In 1964, downtown Littleton businessmen and women debated what could be done to revive the Main Street area. Virginia Baker, heir to some Main Street buildings, suggested a junior college. On May 4, 1965, a narrow vote (1,690 to 1,449) gave favor to a bond issue to build a college. Arapahoe Junior College was the first Junior College in the Denver Metro area. The first classes were held in the Fall of 1966 with 550 students and 23 faculty members in temporary but adequate buildings. Full accreditation was granted in 1970 with 2,300 students and a college budget of $1.8 million. Also in 1970, residents voted again, this time to have the College join the Colorado Community Colleges and Occupational Education System. The local junior college district was dissolved. Arapahoe Junior College was given the name we know it by today, Arapahoe Community College (ACC). Over the years, ACC has continued to grow in both enrollment and course offerings. It currently has over 7,200 students and 130 degree and certificate programs. The majority of classes are held in the Main building completed in A large annex added in 1977 houses additional classrooms; laboratories; an art gallery; shop areas; and all physical education facilities, including a gymnasium, swimming pool, and the Fitness Center. The ACC Art and Design Center was acquired in 1989 and is now home to ACC s art, fine art, and design programs. Arapahoe Community College s 55-acre Main Campus is located in Littleton, Colorado, adjacent to the downtown area. From ACC-Main Campus you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Colorado Rocky Mountains and Denver lies just 15 miles due north. Completed in 2000, a $12 million library expansion and remodel of classrooms and faculty offices on the Main Campus was completed. The remodeled facilities gave the College a new architectural face plus a stateof-the-art technological infrastructure. In 2001, the College acquired the Church Street Building, adding another 3 acres to the campus. As an ongoing effort to remain connected to its service area, ACC also offers courses and programs in a variety of locations. Courses are offered at locations in Littleton, Englewood, Sheridan, Jefferson County, and Douglas County, as well as other off campus sites in Parker and Castle Rock. In January 2000, Arapahoe Community College, in partnership with education, business, and community, opened the University Center at Chaparral (now called the Parker Campus), a high-technology prototype for the future. General Overview of Programs & Program Types Academic Programs Arapahoe Community College offers programs leading to Associate of Arts and Associate of Science degrees with emphases in a variety of health occupations, technological, business, and computer science. Students may also obtain 10

19 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Associates degrees with the intention of transferring into four-year college Bachelor s degree programs. In addition to degree programs, the college offers certificate programs in multiple health occupations, automotive, electronics, and architectural technologies, computer network certifications, and digital media technologies. The College is home to a POST Certified Law Enforcement Academy and an Emergency Medical Services program. Community Programs The Community Education Program at Arapahoe Community College is a leader in developing and providing creative, innovative, programs, courses, and services for lifelong learners. Non-credit courses, programs, and services are provided which improve the quality of life of participants, at a reasonable cost. Activities are created to meet the diverse needs of the community in partnership with local organizations as needed. The Community Education Program at Arapahoe Community College is a self-supporting program. Approximately 500 non-credit courses are offered each term with four terms per year. Broad topic areas include: Arts and Crafts, Adult Basic Education, courses in basic literacy, GED preparation, and ESL, Career, Computer, Cuisine, Family Features, Language and Culture, Home and Garden, Health, Money Matters, Music, Self-Development, courses specifically for people over 55 including Elderhostel, and Youth College. Formats vary from 1-10 sessions per term depending on the course topic. Courses are held at the ACC-Main Campus, Art and Design Center, Grandview Grange, Hudson Gardens, ACC-Parker Campus, and numerous other locations including art studios and private businesses. Over two hundred part time instructors teach in the program each term. Some have degrees in their respective subject areas. All are experts in their fields. Each year, approximately 8,000 students enroll in Community Education courses and programs. The program is managed by two full time, and 6 part-time registration assistants, and part-time coordinators for Youth College, Home Education Institute, and Elderhostel Program. Overview of Current Policies Admissions Arapahoe Community College is an open-door admissions institution. A person with a high school diploma, GED, or anyone not currently attending high school and over the age of 16 will be admitted; however, admission does not guarantee enrollment in many competitive programs. Admission may be denied in accordance with the system president s procedures of the Community Colleges or Colorado (Policy SP 4-10). Housing Arapahoe Community College is a commuter campus and provides no oncampus or resident housing. 11

20 Program Information Facilities Master Plan Student Services As with any comprehensive community college with more than 7,000 students, ACC has a full range of student service functions. These include the departments of Admissions and Records, Advising, Assessment, Counseling, Disability Services, Financial Aid, Career and Employment Services, Student Life, and Child Development Center. Information Central provides enrollment services through extended hours to new and continuing students. Policies as related to student services can be found in the College Catalog or the Arapahoe Community College Policy Manual. Campus Parking Although mass transportation options are available, the majority of Arapahoe Community College students drive their cars to campus. Additional parking will be required as campus growth projections are met. Currently, sufficient parking spaces are available for students, faculty and staff. Athletics Arapahoe Community College does not participate in competitive sports programs; it has no policies related to athletics. The College focuses on health and wellness offering programs and facilities to students, faculty, staff, and the community. Libraries A significant addition to the Arapahoe Community College library was completed in The library is undergoing a transition from a book-based library to a digital research facility. While usage of the print collection remains steady, the collections are becoming increasingly electronic. In concert with NetLibrary, ACC has an 8,200 volume e-book collection and plans call for expansion to at least 15,000 volumes. The library also provides access to numerous online databases and academic journals. The ACC library employs four full-time professional librarians. Class Scheduling Admissions support staff use automated software to schedule credit and non-credit courses. Classroom and laboratory scheduling is based on course enrollments and the level of instructional technology requested by faculty. While most classrooms are centrally scheduled, teaching laboratories are dedicated to academic departments for specialized use. Facilities Maintenance ACC has a staff of nine craft and trades workers and 13 custodians who are responsible for the day-to-day maintenance of ACC-Main Campus and its grounds. Two facilities personnel are assigned to ACC-Parker Campus. Personnel from ACC-Main Campus assist with maintenance projects at ACC- 12

21 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Parker Campus as needed. Major projects at both campuses are contracted to outside vendors through a competitive bid process and are managed by the Facilities Planning and Development Department. Assessment of Related Plans This Facilities Master Plan is the product of a thorough review of the College s role, mission, vision, Strategic Plan, Information Technology Master Plan, and the planning undertaken by the academic leadership. It is grounded in both the external environment affecting ACC and the internal values and strengths of the faculty and staff of the organization. For the past several years the process of strategic planning has involved all levels of the College. Each strategic planning unit (SPU) develops annual goals, objectives and activities needed to support student learning and to achieve the SPU s unique mission and service role. Each SPU formulates plans based on ACC s Guiding Principles and any particular strategies and tactics presented by the Colorado Community College System. Each SPU is required to submit goals, objectives, activities and budget requests via the campus limelight database system utilizing the campus planning timeline. This planning timeline indicates when each SPU will forward budget requests to their respective area or division leader, who then compiles and prioritizes the requests. The prioritized lists are forwarded to the Executive Team for final decisions. This process has been significantly refined and improved over the past few years. ACC is cognizant of the need to avoid unnecessary duplication among its campuses and centers. In some cases, academic programs will be unique to a single location. In other fields, given burgeoning demand (such as nursing), both campuses may have portions of the program. In these cases, the ACC strategy is to begin the program at a single location during the initial planning period and then expand the program to other locations in subsequent years. Parker Campus During the next 10 years, ACC-Parker Campus will continue to be a communityfocused, collaborative partnership which prepares individuals and corporations for the future by providing continuing education and training today. The campus will offer programs that support multiple missions: corporate training, teacher education in partnership with the Douglas County School District, Adams State College, Colorado Christian University, Lesley University and the University of Colorado Denver, and general education courses designed to transfer to four-year institutions.

However, ACC shall negotiate with CCA to share in and provide educational opportunities on that campus. The Community College and Occupational Education System will monitor instructional activities. Size and Distribution Data (Current and Phased Growth) Initially, the Hanover Research Council produced a 2008 study entitled, Service Area Demographics, Projections, and Program Demand for Arapahoe Community College. The College used some of this information in developing enrollment projections for use in the Master Plan. The Plan Horizon includes student FTE through the fall semester of It must be noted that the FTE projections include only students expected to be physically present on each campus. More specifically, students enrolled exclusively in on-line courses were excluded from the analysis while student engaged in hybrid courses were included.

25 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Impact of Distance Education on Arapahoe Community College expects that many of the programs discussed in the Academic Master Plan will have a significant component of the curriculum available on-line and remote locations, primarily through the use of the Internet. Increasingly, the College has been developing hybrid courses that include both traditional face-to-face instruction and distance learning components. FTE from courses taught entirely on-line have been excluded from the enrollment projections. Faculty and Staff Size and Distribution The faculty and staff size and distribution for Arapahoe Community College in the base year and target year are indicated in the table. At ACC-Main Campus, faculty growth of 16% will parallel the projected enrollment growth of 16%. Academic support is projected to grow at the rate of 7% over the Master Plan period. Academic support at ACC-Parker Campus is projected to increase with 7 FTE, while the number of Regular Faculty members assigned to the campus will grow by 400% to 10 FTE to accommodate new programs.

CCHE serves as a bridge between the Governor, the General Assembly, and the governing boards of the state-supported institutions of higher education. Eleven commissioners (changed from nine in HB ) oversee the State s system of higher education, working with one constitutionally created and five statutorily created governing boards. As the State entity charged with the responsibility for overseeing Colorado s public higher education system, the Department of Higher Education also has oversight over the Division of Private Occupational Schools, Colorado Council on the Arts, Colorado Historical Society, and the Colorado Student Loan Program. Statutory authority for the department is contained in Title 23, Colorado Revised Statutes. Community or Service Area At Arapahoe Community College, community relationships are valued. The College is a member of eleven local chamber of commerce groups and economic development councils. The College offers businesses customized training packages and partners with local school districts and businesses on 17

26 Program Information Facilities Master Plan many projects. The ACC Foundation is made up of community members and business associates who raise funds to assist the College in providing the high quality, affordable education opportunities for students. Both small businesses and large corporations offer support to the Foundation with their donations. Grant writing has resulted in funds and partnerships with many agencies including The Adolph Coors Foundation, Janus Foundation, Intel Corporation, Wells Fargo, the Bloom Foundation, and Microsoft. Arapahoe Community College is a visible sponsor of community events in Littleton, Greenwood Village, Englewood, Highlands Ranch, Centennial, Parker, Castle Rock, and South Jefferson County. The College has an Advisory Council of community and business leaders who share advice on the long-term educational needs of ACC and its service area as well as serve as liaisons between ACC and area employers, local school boards and elected officials. Many programs within the College also have specific advisory councils to offer information regarding industry standards and training needs. Governing Board The State Board for Community Colleges and Occupational Education was established in 1967 by legislative action. The Board staff was organized under a Director of Community Colleges and a Director of Occupational Education, each of whom reported directly to the Board. The Colorado General Assembly enacted legislation HB 1237 in 1986, which reconstituted the Board. Subsequently, the new Board, on September 11, 1986, created the Colorado Community College and Occupational Education System (the System) through which to administer its responsibilities. The staff was restructured by the System President who serves as the Director of Community Colleges and Director of Occupational Education. The Vice Presidents, as well as the state system community college presidents, report to the President of the System who is responsible to the Board. The Colorado Community College System (CCCS) is governed by the ninemember State Board for Community Colleges and Occupational Education. The Board is unique in the nation, with responsibility for both secondary and post-secondary career and technical education and community college governance. Members are appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the State Senate for staggered four-year terms. One community college faculty member and one student representative serve in non-voting capacities for one year each. The CCCS comprises the state s largest system of higher education. Its career and academic programs in the 13 state community colleges serve more than 107,000 students annually. In addition, CCCS oversees 1,200 secondary and 800 postsecondary career and technical programs in more than 150 school districts and seven other post-secondary institutions across the state. 18

33 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Academic Space Utilization Classroom & Teaching laboratory Utilization The utilization of classrooms and teaching laboratories was examined using the Arapahoe Community College Fall 2009 course and facility data. Understanding how classrooms and teaching laboratories are scheduled and utilized provides the foundation for and assists in the formulation of the guideline applications. The utilization analysis includes scheduled classroom use by day and time of day, as well as classroom and teaching laboratory utilization analyzing average weekly room hour use and student station occupancy percentage. The utilization of a room is determined by calculating the average enrollment of the courses taught in a room along with total weekly student contact hours, weekly room hours, and student station occupancy percentage. Weekly student contact hours are calculated by multiplying the enrollment of a course by the weekly contact, or room hours, during which the course is held. Weekly room/contact hours are determined by calculating the number of hours a course meets (start and end times) and multiplying the result by the number of days the course meets each week. Both of these factors are totaled on a room-by-room basis. If a course does not meet for a full term, the number of hours for a room is prorated by the number of weeks in a semester. The student station occupancy for a room is determined by dividing the rooms weekly student contact hours by the room s weekly student contact hour capacity (a course s weekly contact hours times the room s number of student stations). This study did not include an analysis of space quality, sight lines, acoustics, or equipment in the rooms. WEEKLY ROOM/CONTACT HOURS (WRH OR WCH) = No. of Days X ((End - Start )/60) WEEKLY STUDENT CONTACT HOURS (WSCH) = Students X Weekly Room/Contact Hours WEEKLY STUDENT CONTACT HOUR CAPACITY = s X Weekly Room/Contact Hours STUDENT STATION OCCUPANCY % = WSCH / WSCH Capacity HOURS PER SEAT = WSCH / No. of s Classroom Use Scheduled Classroom Use by Day and Hour On average, between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM, 73% of the classrooms at ACC- Main Campus are in use for scheduled instruction. The average decreases during the later afternoon (4:30 PM to 6:00 PM) with 23% of classrooms in use at 5:00 PM. The average evening use (5:30 PM to 7:00 PM) shows that between 43% and 57% of the classrooms in use for scheduled instruction. Overall, Friday use is minimal after 11:30 AM. This trend is consistent with a pattern of use for many community colleges. 25

35 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Classroom Utilization by Building During Fall 2009, the 61 classrooms ACC-Main Campus averaged 31 hours of scheduled use per week, at 72% student station occupancy, and averaged 24 ASF per station. Classroom Utilization Analysis by Building Summary Building Name and Id No. of Rooms Average Room Size Average ASF per Station Average Section Size Average Weekly Room Hours Hours in Use Annex Building Annex Art & Design Center Art Church Street Building CSB Main Building Main North Building North AVERAGE TOTAL % % % % % % The average weekly room hours are consistent among four buildings, with the Art & Design Center as the exception. The Annex Building s 10 classrooms have an average of 33 weekly room hours. The Art and Design Center s 6 classrooms average 23 weekly room hours. The Church Street Building s 4 classrooms and the 32 classrooms in the Main building average 32 weekly room hours. The North Building s 9 classrooms average 30 weekly room hours. The CCCS guidelines are 42 weekly room hours for scheduled instruction of creditbearing courses. The rooms at Arapahoe Community College s Main Campus are short of that guideline. The classrooms in four of the buildings show similar average utilization parameters for the metric of station size. Classrooms in the Annex building have an average of five additional ASF per station. With regard to the metric of weekly room hours, the Art and Design Center lags the other buildings with an average of 23 weekly room hours. The average student station occupancies range from 66% for the Art & Design Center to 74% for the Church Street Building. The average of 22 ASF per station is appropriate for most classroom types. While CCCS recommends an array ASF per station, the average is predicated on a wide variety of classroom sizes. Community colleges typically have a narrower margin of classroom sizes and the range tends to be 22 to 25 ASF per station. Additionally, as the classrooms at the Main Campus were constructed in recent years specifically for use by the community college, the average of 22 ASF per station is appropriate. 27

36 Existing Conditions Assessment/Conclusions Planning Process Facilities Master Plan Classroom Utilization Analysis by Room Capacity The majority of the classrooms have 25 to 30 stations. These rooms have, on average, 29 weekly room hours. Rooms with stations average 41 hours per week. The student station occupancy percentage decreases as the room capacity increases. This illustrates that, on the average, the larger classrooms are being used more hours, but fewer seats are being filled. This is because the campus has a variety of classroom sizes, but tends to have consistent course enrollment as illustrated by the average section size of 17 to 19 students in these rooms. ACC-Parker Campus averaged 10 weekly room hours at 56% student station occupancy. Their classrooms average 24 ASF per station.

37 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Classroom Utilization Analysis Summary ACC-Main Campus does not exceed the CCCS guidelines for weekly room hour expectation; the student station occupancy percentage exceeds the guideline. The utilization of classrooms at ACC-Main Campus does demonstrate that there is capacity overall based on CCCS utilization guidelines; However, the classroom utilization needs to be considered within the context of the existing classrooms educational adequacy, available technology, and overall qualitative assessment, which are not components of this utilization. Teaching Laboratory Utilization During Fall 2007 there were 41 rooms classified as teaching laboratories within the ACC-Main Campus facilities inventory. As the following table indicates, ACC-Main Campus teaching laboratories averaged 18 weekly room hours at 73% student station occupancy. CCCS has developed a guideline for teaching laboratories. This guideline expectation is 24 weekly room hours and includes spaces used by disciplines such as biology, chemistry, engineering, nursing, and art with a student station occupancy of 80%.

Art and Design had the highest student station occupancy average at 75%, while the Main Building housing sciences and health programs had the lowest at 69%. The two teaching laboratories at ACC-Parker Campus averaged 6 weekly room hours at 74% occupancy. Teaching Laboratory Utilization Summary Laboratory utilization can be more difficult to measure through standardized course data. The reasons for this are many. A laboratory is sometimes a suite of rooms that are split into activity specific functions. The students arrive for class and then rotate through the different rooms. Sometimes a class is split into smaller cohorts where some use the lab through the first half of the semester and the others use the lab for the second half. 29

38 Existing Conditions Assessment/Conclusions Planning Process Facilities Master Plan Laboratories have additional time demands that classrooms typically do not have. For example, there is setup and preparation time required, sometimes for the day. Other laboratories require an experiment to stay set up for multiple lab sessions or the entire semester which excludes the room from other scheduled activity. The teaching laboratories at ACC-Main Campus are used on average of 18 weekly room hours, which is below the guideline established by the CCCS, but does not reflect departmentally scheduled laboratory use. The average student station occupancy falls slightly below the range expected. Space Needs Guideline Application Summary ACC-Main Campus currently contains approximately 276,400 ASF (Existing, Leased, and Inactive space). Approximately 6,400 ASF is currently being leased to the Spring International School. Application of space guidelines based on current programs, student enrollment and staffing levels generated a need for approximately 247,700 ASF, which is a surplus of 22,317 ASF when inactive space is added. At projected student enrollment and staffing levels as well as accommodations for proposed new academic and technical programs, the space needs analysis generated a need for approximately 281,000 ASF, which is a deficit of slightly more than 11,000 ASF. Details are discussed by space category in Appendix

Facility 31

40 Existing Conditions Assessment/Conclusions Planning Process Facilities Master Plan systems and building components are classified for inspection in logical groupings in order to identify all deficiencies and determine the overall condition of the facilities. Another goal of the Facility Audit is to have two groups of projects: those that would qualify as Controlled Maintenance Projects (>$15,000), and those that are <$15,000 and can be remedied internally. This information is the basis for formulation of both the five-year Controlled Maintenance (CM) Plan and our five-year Capital Construction (CC) Plan. The same findings are also used to support any budget requests for CM or CC funding from the State Legislature. As part of the audit process, square footages were evaluated for all buildings. Using the known square footage numbers and the Means Square Foot Costs, 2005 Edition as a guide, accurate building replacement costs were determined. The value of the building contents was also calculated using Means Construction Cost Data and component pricing data from suppliers. The results of the audit at ACC contained no surprises. The FCI for each building truly depicts the overall condition of that building. Main Building FCI: 89.3% The Main Building was built in 1974 and is located on the ACC-Main Campus. The 221,080 gross square foot building is a four-story structure containing classrooms, science labs, LRC, Cafeteria, Bookstore, Student Center, and offices. Overall, the Main Building is generally in good-to-excellent condition; however, the facility does have some areas needing attention. These areas are: (1) Replacement of the top pour and structural concrete repair on the west walls and decks, (2) Replacement of the main boilers, (3) upgrades to the fire alarm system and the Energy Management system, (4) replacement of the 277/480 high voltage panels, (5) roof replacement, (6) Chem/Bio make-up air unit replacement and (7) the glass walkway needs heating/cooling, new storefront glass panels, replacement of the glass roof with a solid metal roof and run-off protection. Replacement/repair of the concrete, the boilers and the high voltage panels were requested through the SBP Controlled Maintenance Program. These projects were approved as part of the FY06/07 and FY07/08 Controlled Maintenance Budgets. The high voltage panels have been replaced, the boiler replacement is under construction and the concrete repair is in the design phase.

Major egress to ACC-Main Campus is from the north (Church and Sumner Streets) and South with a signal light on South Santa Fe Drive. Two city streets (College Drive and Nevada Street) are within the campus boundary and provide vehicular access to the main entrance of the College. Restricted parking is available on city streets and is patrolled by the ACC Police Department. Parking lots are located to the north, west and south of the campus with the largest lots directly north of the main building. The College uses a decal system as lots are restricted to student and college employees only. The College Police Department patrols the lots for permit violations. Pedestrians access ACC- Main Campus buildings by crossing through the parking lots. Students and staff travel to and from the Art and Design Building by walking several blocks and crossing two major public streets as parking is very limited. Utility Systems Utilities on the Arapahoe Community College campuses are provided by regulated utility providers. Natural gas and electricity are provided by Xcel Energy, Inc. ACC-Main Campus received its water from Denver Water, and the Littleton/Englewood Waste Water Treatment Plant provides sewer services. Qwest Communications provides telecommunications and data transmission services to the college. 37

46 Existing Conditions Assessment/Conclusions Planning Process Facilities Master Plan Storm Water Management Arapahoe Community College (ACC) is fully contained within the corporate limits of the City of Littleton. The public population at ACC is comprised of students, faculty, staff, and other regular users (i.e. members of community organizations that rent facilities during off-hours). The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Program for Arapahoe Community College has been developed to create a plan to prevent and eliminate stormwater pollution discharges to the maximum extent practicable. After a thorough review of the existing facilities and operations, a program has been developed that identifies pollution sources of concern, and program areas that will be most effective in reducing stormwater pollution. Included in the program permit is public awareness information, on site compliance training, illicit discharge documentation and public input opportunities. It was determined from a site inspection that a few potential pollution sources pose the vast majority of the risk of stormwater contamination. In general, up to date pollution control practices are employed throughout the campus facilities as part of the existing operation and maintenance regimen. ACC-Main Campus consists of five main buildings, including a satellite Art and Design complex (5 buildings), storage sheds and small outbuildings. The Plant Facilities Department and College Site Manager administer and oversee all program areas contained within the College Permit. ACC-Main Campus serves approximately 8,000 students, faculty and staff. The entire ACC-Main Campus is contained within the urbanized area of the City of Littleton. The area of coverage for all program areas in the permit is the entire campus, and does not exceed campus boundaries. Athletics/Parks/Recreational Fields/Open Space Arapahoe Community College does not engage in intercollegiate athletics and has no organized athletic fields. The college has four recreational tennis courts and landscaped turf areas, with views of the front range of the Rocky Mountains, adjacent to the campus buildings. Assessment of Current Campus Aesthetics The ACC-Main Campus contains two buildings that date from the 1950s the 19,000 square foot North Building, originally an elementary school, and the 14,500 square foot Quonset hut that serves as the Physical Plant Building. Neither of these buildings adds to a sense of place or contributes to cohesive campus architecture. The 1974 Main Building, a 221,000 gross square foot (GSF), cast-in-place concrete structure is an example of the Brutalism movement that swept architecture from the 1950s to the 1970s. In 1977, ACC added the 81,500 GSF Annex building which continues the style of the Main Building. The Main Building has been modified with a library addition and ivy plantings in attempts to soften the appearance of the buildings and campus. Elements of this master plan will continue the college s efforts to enhance the campus surroundings. 38

49 The Plan: Main Campus Facilities Master Plan November 2010 THE PLAN: MAIN CAMPUS The space needs identified in the previous section are translated into Capital Improvement Projects to resolve facility requirements for Arapahoe Community College. The physical response to space needs are representative of an interactive process between the consultant and Arapahoe Community College administration, faculty, staff and students to determine appropriate, justifiable, and implementable programmatic facility needs and relationships; thus, the Capital Improvements are a reflection of the vision and mission of Arapahoe Community College within the context of the Community Colleges of Colorado and the Colorado Commission on Higher Education. During implementation each project should consider: The operating capacity of programs during implementation Future maintenance and operations impact Compliance with CCCS space utilization ratios Integration of academic and IT Planning Means to implement Executive Orders D and C related to the greening of state government. The facility master planning process was collaborative, with several work sessions held to discuss the physical response to the academic, IT, and space needs findings. Several alternatives were developed and presented to the College for comment. This resulted in the preferred facility response to the overall space needs and adjacencies that is both implementable and addresses the critical needs of the institution. Over the period of this master plan, this strategy focuses primarily on renovation of facilities for health science, math and technology program spaces; renovation of spaces within the Main and Annex Buildings; and the replacement of the Physical Plant space with new construction to the south of the existing South Building. The creation of a new south entry to the campus, improvements to the north campus entry, and a buffer along South Santa Fe Drive are addressed as necessary site improvements. The physical response of the 2003 master plan investigated several renovation projects on the Main Campus. As the result of economic constraints within Colorado, these projects were not realized. Therefore, this master plan has re-evaluated these projects and the space needs for the projected student enrollment and presents various options for addressing those needs. The approach the College takes regarding facilities for the Main Campus will be decided based on various criteria including funding availability, enrollment levels, program growth and community support. The options include: GF CIP-1: Renovation of Cafeteria and Food Service GF CIP-2: Learning Commons Remodel (Main Building 1st Floor Main) GF CIP-3: Main Building 3rd Floor and Annex 2nd Floor Remodel GF CIP-4: Campus Site Improvements, Replacement of Physical Plant Building. 41

50 UP The Plan: Main Campus Facilities Master Plan The following sections will describe each GF-CIP Project 1 through 4 in more detail and include a statement of probable cost for each project. GF CIP-1 Renovation of Cafeteria and Food Service As a non-residential campus, Arapahoe Community College has witnessed a dramatic decline in the use of its cafeteria style food service facilities. This project will reduce the food service from its current size and configuration. The College will utilize an outside vendor to provide a grab-and-go option with sandwiches, salads, and some beverages. The existing private dining and meeting room will be relocated to the southeast corner of the existing kitchen area. A catering preparation space will be provided for outside vendors that service events in the multi-purpose room or the private dining and meeting rooms. The project will renovate approximately 17,000 ASF of space. The College requires a venue that can seat approximately 700 people in a lecture-style configuration and approximately 400 people in a banquet-style configuration with dining tables and chairs. The existing dining room will be renovated to create a more functional multi-purpose room to meet this need M1530 M E E 1806 M1808 M1751 M1743 M1742 M1745 M M M1546 W M1551 M1552 M1554 M M1020 M1804 M1810 M1750 M M1548 M1635 M1556 M M M M1740 M1726 M M1630 M1605 M1615 M1050 women M1030 M1040 M1865 M1870 M1860 W M M M M1640 M1060 MEN E E M M E 1292 M1200 M M M1900 M W 1355 M1212 M1222 M1910 M1359 M1357 Renovation of Cafeteria and Food Service 42

52 UP The Plan: Main Campus Facilities Master Plan GF CIP-2: Learning Commons Remodel (Main Building 1st Floor) As a non-residential campus, Arapahoe Community College has need for accessible computers and student team based project meeting areas. Due to popularity of the existing open computer lab, this space will be expanded and increased with more modern technology. This will allow individuals access to computer stations and small group meeting spaces where students can gather to collaborate together on course projects. It is envisioned that these student gathering areas will be a combination of open tables adjacent to a wall where a flat screen monitor can be plugged into a lap top as well as some small computer study rooms that can be reserved for up to six people.

In addition to the Learning Commons Remodel and Expansion, some administrative offices will be remodeled and upgraded to better serve the occupants needs. The existing A/V Service/Control area and the existing TV studio have become outdated and 44

53 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE will be relocated into newly remodeled space that is more conducive to digital technology equipment and the types of media that are created by faculty and students on campus. Some existing classroom space will be remodeled to reflect current teaching styles. Depending upon the project space allocations, some Student Affairs functions that are currently being housed on the second floor of the main building might be considered for relocation to the first floor. The project will renovate a total of 12,002 ASF (16,698 GSF). Below are conceptual photo examples of Learning Commons type spaces that are envisioned for this project. 45

55 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE GF CIP-3: Main Building 3rd Floor and Annex 2nd Floor Remodel Space for physical sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Physics) is currently located on the third floor of the Main Building. The space has not seen any major renovations since the original building was constructed in As a result, the existing science labs are outdated in terms of functionality and utilities and do not meet current building codes. The use of computer technology combined with innovations of instructional methods regarding the science curriculum results in inefficiencies and the inability of faculty to teach with the most current pedagogy. Students in the health science programs are required to take multiple physical science courses. Closer physical adjacencies between health programs and the sciences could benefit faculty to develop cross-disciplinary programs in the future.

56 The Plan: Main Campus Facilities Master Plan Arapahoe Community College proposes to remodel approximately 32,000 ASF on the third floor to accommodate growth in STEM related programs and the associated physical science laboratories and to provide state-of-the art science laboratories that meet the projected programmatic needs of the college. These newly remodeled laboratories would also benefit the students in health related programs. Completion of the remodel of the Main Building third floor spaces will enable the College to meet the additional programmatic space needs through the renovation of existing areas as detailed in the above illustration. Renovation of Annex Building Space The administrative offices for the Instructional unit will be renovated to create more efficient, functional space. GF CIP-3 Renovation of Health Program Spaces 48

57 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE GF CIP-3 Renovation of Annex 2nd Floor Several factors are influencing the need for renovation. These include: a) expansion of programs due to growth of health care related facilities in ACC s service area, b) the critical shortage of trained nursing personnel to provide services to an aging Colorado population, and c) the lack of adequate space for modern equipment to train health professionals and science students. The renovation of the second floor annex will include dedicated full- and part-time offices for faculty. Dedicated laboratories will be needed for the hands-on programs and clinical experiences, including simulation. Large classroom spaces for 50 students will be shared among the various health occupation programs and scheduled for other college courses when not in use. Preparation laboratories that have common elements and storage areas will also be shared among the health programs. The design goal is to provide the greatest amount of flexibility and joint use of space. 49

59 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE GF CIP-4: Campus Site Improvements, Replacement of Physical Plant Building Arapahoe Community College s western boundary, South Santa Fe Drive (US Highway 85) carries a heavy volume of traffic, creating safety concerns and excessive noise and pollution. The college has ownership of the eastern side of this 2,376 linear foot berm that separates the campus from the highway. ACC proposes to make improvements to the berm, create an improved campus entry at the southern end of the campus, improve traffic flow on the north end of the campus with the addition of a roundabout on West Campus Drive in front of the Main Building, vacate the parking spaces on South Sumner Street and West Campus Drive, and replace the 14,560 GSF existing Quonset hut that serves as the Physical Plant Building and construct an approximately 20,000 ASF (25,000 GSF) replacement building further to the south. Following demolition of the existing Physical Plant Building the site will be paved to provide additional parking on the southern side of the campus. GF-CIP-4 site improvements and new Physical Plant Building located are noted in the map at right. 51

63 The Plan: Parker Campus Facilities Master Plan November 2010 PARKER CAMPUS Current Land Use Campus Building Functions Arapahoe Community College s Parker Campus is located at Brookstone Drive, on a 5-acre site in unincorporated Douglas County, south of Denver, Colorado. The campus has one two-story building. The first floor houses offices for center staff and adjunct faculty, an open laboratory, and classrooms. The second floor contains classrooms, teaching laboratories, and student lounge space. The facility is used for academic credit courses, workforce training, and professional development programs in the Denver Technological Center and surrounding areas. Land Uses Adjacent to the Center ACC-Parker Campus is in an area of unincorporated Douglas County that is zoned for Planned Development Urban. Douglas County School District s Chaparral High School is located adjacent to the center on the north and east. A residential development lies to the south of the center, and an area of Estate Residential property is located west of Chambers Road. Building Locations Map Current Footprints The existing building was constructed in 1999 as a shared use educational facility with limited parking. The land, once owned by the Douglas County School District, was deeded to the State of Colorado prior to construction of the Center. The School District continues to own the land to the north (ball field) and east (high school) while public roads run parallel to the south and west edges of the property. As a result, acreage for physical expansion is very limited. PARKER CAMPUS 55

64 The Plan: Parker Campus Facilities Master Plan Current Space Inventory/Projection Tables Existing Space Arapahoe Community College provided a room-by-room inventory documenting departmental assignment, space use classification, and assignable square feet (ASF) for ACC-Parker Campus. The facilities inventory included all facilities currently owned by the College. The following table Parker Campus ASF by Space Category illustrates the amount of space at ACC-Parker campus by space category. The largest category of space is dedicated to classrooms. The laboratory classification includes both teaching and open laboratories. Other department space includes meeting rooms, and telephone and computer equipment rooms.

65 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Space Needs Analysis Space Needs Guideline Application Summary ACC-Parker Campus currently contains approximately 14,000 ASF of space. Application of space guidelines based on current programs, student enrollment and staffing levels generated a need for 7,800 ASF, which is a surplus of 5,513 ASF as noted in the table below. At projected student enrollment and staffing levels, as well as accommodations for proposed new academic and technical programs, the space needs analysis generated a need for approximately 14,200 ASF, which is a deficit of slightly more than 800 ASF (See Campus Total in table below for Fall 2014).

66 The Plan: Parker Campus Facilities Master Plan Facility Conditions Index by Building The Facility Audit process began in the Fall of 1999 and was last updated in August The replacement value is a key factor in the calculation of the FCI for a given facility. ACC uses the latest construction cost estimating tools and methods to determine the replacement value of each facility. Second, a comprehensive infrastructure condition assessment was performed. Facility systems and building components are classified for inspection in logical groupings in order to identify all deficiencies and determine the overall condition of ACC-Parker Campus facilities. Another goal of the Facility Audit is to have two groups of projects: those that would qualify as Controlled Maintenance Projects (>$15,000), and those that are <$15,000 and can be remedied internally. This information is the basis for formulation of both the five-year Controlled Maintenance (CM) Plan and the five-year Capital Construction (CC) Plan. The same findings are also used to support any budget requests for CM or CC funding from the State Legislature. As part of the audit process, square footages were evaluated for ACC-Parker Campus buildings. Using the known square footage numbers and the Means Square Foot Costs, 2005 Edition as a guide, accurate building replacement costs were determined. The value of the building contents was also calculated using Means Construction Cost Data and component pricing data from suppliers. The results of the ACC-Parker Campus audit contained no surprises. The FCI for the building truly depicts the overall condition. Parker Campus FCI: 98.5% ACC-Parker Campus was built in 1999 and is located east of I-25 and three blocks north of Lincoln Avenue. The 22,496 gross square foot facility is a twostory building containing classrooms, break-out rooms, offices and common areas. Overall, the campus is in excellent condition. The building does have one minor problem with exterior window seal leakage caused by slight foundation settling. No other deficiencies were noted during the audit. 58

67 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Topographic Map Location of ACC- Parker Campus Source: USGS, 7.5 Minute Quad Map, Parker Co, Revised Subsurface Soil Conditions The regional map indicating general soil conditions is shown on the following page. The entire area is relatively flat with subsurface soil listed as Satanta loam. The Satanta series consists of very deep well drained soils that formed in Eolian deposits. These soils are on plains or high stream terraces with slopes ranging from 0 to 15 percent. 59

The only access to the campus parking area is an access road owned by the Douglas County School District. The parking lot in front of the building is accessed from public streets and is restricted to student and college employees only. Pedestrians access the campus by crossing through the parking lot. 60

69 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Utility Systems Utilities at ACC-Parker Campus are provided by regulated utility providers. Natural gas and electricity are provided by Xcel Energy, Inc. The campus receives water and sewer services from the Parker Water and Sanitation District. Qwest Communications provides telecommunications and data transmission services to the college. The Plan The space needs identified for the campus are translated into a physical response to explore facility requirements for Arapahoe Community College s programs in Douglas County. The physical response to space needs are representative of an interactive process between the consultant and ACC administration, faculty, staff and students to determine appropriate, justifiable, and implementable programmatic facility needs and relationships. A result of these discussions was concurrence that ACC needs to undertake a feasibility study that examines options for program delivery in Douglas County. This will ensure that future Capital Improvements are a reflection of the vision and mission of Arapahoe Community College within the context of the Colorado Community College System, the residents of Douglas County, and the Colorado Commission on Higher Education. During implementation each project should consider: The operating capacity of programs during implementation Future maintenance and operations impact Compliance with CCHE space utilization ratios Integration of Academic and IT Planning Means to implement Executive Orders D and C related to the greening of state government. The facility master planning process was collaborative, with work sessions held to discuss the physical response to the academic, IT, and space needs findings. Several alternatives were developed and presented to the College for comment. This resulted in the decision to proceed with a feasibility study to examine a series of options that will lead to a preferred facility response to the overall space needs and adjacencies that is both implementable and addresses the critical needs of the institution. Over the period of this master plan, this strategy focuses primarily on construction of new facilities for program delivery in Douglas County. 61

70 The Plan: Parker Campus Facilities Master Plan GF CIP-5 Douglas County Campus Options The 1999 development of ACC-Parker Campus was predicated on the eventual ownership of a ten acre site that would have provided the college with the potential for growth. Upon completion of the land deed, only a five-acre parcel was transferred for available use by the College. If enrollment growth in Douglas County meets the College s projections, the existing facility will be insufficient. Therefore, this master plan illustrates the space needs for the projected student enrollment. ACC-Parker Campus currently has 13,336 ASF or 22,496 GSF or space. At the Target Year the facility will have small deficits of open laboratories, academic offices, student center, other administrative space and physical plant space. The approach ACC takes regarding facilities for the Douglas County campus will be based upon various criteria. ACC is currently leasing space for classes in Castle Rock (Douglas County). A holistic strategy for Douglas County will be developed once the center in Castle Rock is in operation. 62

71 Appendix A Guideline Assumptions and Applications

72

73 Appendix A Guideline Assumptions and Applications Facilities Master Plan November 2010 Appendix A-Guideline Assumptions and Applications The goal in applying these guidelines was to provide Arapahoe Community College with adequate space to conduct its current and future activities. The sections below specify which guideline was applied to each space category and provides an explanation of the guideline application and where pertinent a comparison to the CCCS guideline. In order to apply the various guidelines and conduct the space needs analysis, several assumptions were made in this report. Assumptions applied to specific space categories are listed in this section. Classroom & Classroom Service Classrooms (100s space use code) are defined as any room generally used for scheduled instruction requiring no special equipment and referred to as a general purpose classroom, seminar room, or lecture hall. Classroom service space directly supports one or more classrooms as an extension of the classroom activities, providing media space, preparation areas, or storage. The classroom station size is considered as including the classroom service area space. However, additional service space can be justified on a program or classroom basis. Prior to 2000, many guidelines for classroom space were developed independent of flexible furniture packages, imbedded technology, appropriate sight lines, and appropriate interior circulation. Older guidelines often used an average of 15 ASF per station, which included larger student stations for programs such as Accounting as well as smaller student stations within lecture halls. However, community colleges typically have fewer classroom types. Additionally, the classroom types often are a greater percentage of table and chair, which provide appropriate ergonomic seating for the adult student, a work surface for both laptops and textbooks, and sightlines in accordance with a mediated or technology-rich environment. The consultant would expect to see a higher average ASF per station at Arapahoe Community College, therefore, the consultant recommends 22 ASF per station. Classroom space requirements are determined by a formula that takes the target utilization of 42 hours per week, multiplies it by the target student station occupancy of 68% and divides the result into the 22 square feet per student station. This calculation produces a guideline of 0.77 ASF per weekly student contact hours (WSCH) for lecture courses. square feet per weekly student contact hour (ASF/WSCH) is calculated as follows: Lecture Guideline per Weekly Student Contact Hour (WSCH): 22 ASF/STATION = 0.77 ASF/WSCH 42 WEEKLY ROOM HOURS X 68% STUDENT STATION OCCUPANCY 65

74 Appendix A Guideline Assumptions and Applications Facilities Master Plan As further explanation, the total number of weekly contact hours for a lecture course section is obtained by multiplying the enrollment of the course section by the number of meeting hours in one week. For example a history course with 20 students enrolled which meets three (3) times a week for one hour produces 60 weekly student contact hours (WSCH). Multiplying the 60 weekly student contact hours by the classroom guideline of 0.77 generates 46.2 ASF of classroom space. Teaching Laboratories & Teaching Laboratory Service Teaching laboratories (210s space use code) are defined as rooms used primarily by regularly scheduled classes that require special purpose equipment to serve the needs of particular disciplines for group instruction, participation, observation, experimentation, or practice. Station sizes in teaching laboratories vary by discipline. Space requirements are calculated with a formula that is similar to those used to determine classroom space requirements, except that the ASF per student station and weekly room hour expectation varies by discipline. Arapahoe Community College teaching laboratories do not meet the CCCS utilization expectations based on Fall 2009 data. The 18 average weekly room hours of scheduled instruction at ACC s Main Campus is less than the guideline of 28 weekly room hours. The average student station occupancy of 73% is less than the CCCS guideline of 80%.

Currently, ACC-Main Campus has approximately 54,500 ASF of teaching laboratory space. There are disciplines such as Art that have the capacity for additional sections within the existing space. Other disciplines such as Nursing and Automobile Repair Technology are underrepresented in the data due to departmental scheduling of laboratories which is not reflected in the class schedule. Indications are that the Nursing Department is using their existing teaching laboratories above the utilization guideline and could justify additional space. The result is a need for additional teaching laboratories to reach the guideline. A list of new programs in noted in the table. The need for teaching laboratory space is independent of the open laboratory need, which is discussed in the next section. 66

These rooms may provide equipment to serve the needs of particular disciplines for group instruction in informally or irregularly scheduled classes. Alternatively, these rooms are used for individual student experimentation, observation, or practice in a particular field of study. The size of these laboratories is based on equipment size, the station size, and student count desired, and therefore should be determined on an individual basis. Types of rooms included in this category include computer laboratories, language laboratories, music practice rooms, and tutorial and testing facilities. The consultant believes that a reasonable open laboratory guideline for Arapahoe Community College is 5.5 ASF per student FTE at the target enrollment. Office Space The guideline application for office space needs is based upon major categories of staff types and the additional application of space amounts for office service and conference space needs. Arapahoe Community College provided staffing information with individual job title, EEO code, department, full-time equivalent, and full-time or part-time status. The consultant then organized each into major categories as shown in the following Office Guidelines table. 67

76 Appendix A Guideline Assumptions and Applications Facilities Master Plan Office Guidelines Employee Type Office ASF Conference ASF Service ASF President Vice President Dean Administrators/Managers Director Professional Faculty Faculty (Music) Adjunct Faculty Staff Secretarial & Clerical Technical / Paraprofessional Student Work Station Police Officer Service & Maintenance (office required) Crafts & Trades Library Personnel (Office Space in Library Service Guidelines) ASF = Square Feet These guidelines determine office space needs based on the headcount of major categories of staff and the application of space amounts for office service and conference space needs. The consultant developed guidelines that are more specific to job titles and position. For example, top level administrators such as the President and Vice Presidents require larger offices and a greater allocation for conference room and service space. Some units also have a need for additional conference or service space. Additional service space provides for functions such as records storage for Financial Aid and enhanced lobby areas for Admissions. Library Space Most of the guideline systems for library space use one set of factors for collections, another for reader stations, and a third for service space. CCHE does not have a set of guidelines for library space. Guidelines for library were used that are mindful of those published by the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL), which the consultant has applied at similar institutions. The guideline includes office space for library personnel in the service space factor. Open stack study space is a portion of the total reader stations/study space generation. ACC-Main Campus currently has approximately 20,100 ASF of library space. The existing library consists of stacks, study rooms, a computer area, the circulation desk and reserve area, and office space for library staff. Other Department Space The space classified as Other Department Space includes all other space assigned to academic and administrative departments that has not been included in the other classifications. These areas often consist of a variety of spaces including study rooms, vending areas, meeting rooms, locker rooms, media production, clinic spaces, demonstration rooms, animal quarters, greenhouses, learning center space, lounges, and central computer rooms. Due to the diversity of these spaces and the different ways various campuses might classify these spaces, they are not specifically addressed by recognized guideline systems. Some of the College s spaces at ACC-Main Campus in this category include the Media Center, television studio, Word Graphics, and Information Technology server and telecommunication rooms and related support spaces. 68

77 November 2010 ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE A guideline of approximately 4.5 ASF per student FTE was applied to determine Other Department Space. This factor reflects the needs for spaces of this nature across the campus in these two categories (Academic and Administrative). Assembly & Exhibit Space Assembly and exhibit space is defined as any room designed and equipped for the assembly of large numbers of people. This includes theaters, auditoriums, concert halls, and arenas. Exhibit spaces are used for exhibition of materials, works of art, or artifacts intended for general use by students and the public. The consultant applied a guideline in accordance with the parameters of an institution such as Arapahoe Community College. This guideline has a core allowance of 5,600 ASF, to which the consultant has added 3,000 ASF to accommodate the Colorado Gallery of the Arts. Physical Plant Typically, Physical Plant space is 4% to 8% of the space on campus. The trend has been to decrease this type of space on campus as more services are outsourced to the local community and ordering occurs more often ondemand, which negates the need for the quantity of space dedicated to longterm storage. Additionally, the guideline for smaller campuses is often lower as there is an economy of scale relative to the amount of space being maintained. The consultant used 6% at ACC-Main Campus to reflect the current application of physical plant guidelines. Physical Education / Student Recreation Originally, an 8,200 ASF gymnasium and a 5,400 ASF swimming pool were constructed as part of the Annex in In 1986, a Fitness Center was constructed over part of the gym floor. These facilities are utilized for exercise based physical education classes, students enrolled in the police and fire academies, as well as for recreational activities for students, faculty, staff, and the community. Today approximately 15,700 ASF are assigned to physical education and recreation, and current enrollments would suggest the need for nearly 15,743 ASF, indicating that this area is in balance. The guideline of 17,152 ASF at target year enrollments would create a deficit to 1,409 ASF. While a comprehensive campus requires this space, a community college is less likely to dedicate resources to a full complement of these spaces. Student Center Space The guidelines provide space for the various functions and the space use code designations that are typically found in a comprehensive student center, including: food service (630s), bookstore (660s), lounge (650s), recreation space (670s), meeting space (680 s), student government/club space (300s and 680s), and other student service type space categories. 69

78 Appendix A Guideline Assumptions and Applications Facilities Master Plan Small private institutions with large percentages of students housing often require ASF per headcount student for student center space. Large comprehensive intuitions often require 9-11 ASF per student as a guideline in this category. Community colleges without a residential population will typically require approximately 5 ASF per student. Therefore, 5 ASF per headcount student was used as the guideline for ACC-Main Campus. 70
