THE PROCESS Stages/Schedule

The Master Planning Process stretched over a two-year period and was timed to accommodate the College’s new Strategic Plan, updated Mission Statement, and 2018 Middle States (Middle States Commission on Higher Education or MSCHE) visit.

Goal Setting & Development: The process of developing goals and objectives of the Master Planning process looked at the strengths and weaknesses of the previous plan as a starting point. Input from the Steering Committee and the Administration further refined the process, creating a broad concept of what the master planning process would accomplish.

Research Stakeholder Input: Stakeholder research involved surveys sent to all students, faculty, staff, and other stakeholders. Individual department questionnaires and interviews were also held, in addition to input from the Administration.

Develop Concepts and Drafts: Multiple draft plans were created early in the process and were intentionally broad as the College’s Strategic Plan was developed. The plan specifics and identified projects became more specific as the Strategic Plan was finalized and the needs of the College were more clearly identified.

Strategic Plan Development and Finalization: The final form of the master plan was respectful of previous CCM master plans and was further developed to better identify specific needs, development/renovation opportunities, and to coordinate future work and infrastructure projects to accommodate a layered or phased development of the campus.

Final Master Plan Document: The final master plan document was reviewed with the Steering Committee during the Fall 2018 Semester of the College when faculty and all staff were present. The final form reflects discussed needs, prioritization of opportunities, and the coordination of all College planning documents including the Strategic Plan, Technology Plan, Marketing Plan (under development), Deferred Maintenance Plan, Custodial Plan, and others.

Plan Approval and Dissemination: The final plan form was approved through the Steering Committee, the Administration, and the Board of Trustees. Its dissemination will involve presentation to the campus community and the availability in electronic format online (the College’s planning page of the website).

Process Objectives & Goals The master plan is intended to be a guide for the next six to twelve years. The College’s Strategic Plan provides a vision of the goals of the College framed through its mission and values statements. The Master Plan provides a plan to support those goals and vision. The objective is to provide a framework for expansion of the facilities and renovation projects that improve the use of the structures. The six- and twelve-year time points reflect other institutional planning periods and may change based on funding sources and what is accomplished during this time period.

The plan shall provide a framework to ensure infrastructure is in place for future expansion and to ensure each component positively affects existing and future structures. Larger campus issues can be addressed in a systematic way that ensures the efficient and effective use of finite resources.

During the 2017 and 2018 planning process, five main goals of the plan were developed and refined to reflect the institution’s and planning committee’s objectives:

1. Master Plan should reflect and connect the goals and mission of the institution

1. 2015-2018 Strategic Plan 2. 2010-2015 Strategic Technology Plan 3. Current CCM Master Plan 4. Latest Environmental Scan (2014) 5. Campus Community Surveys

2. Provide a clear vision for campus construction work and land usage

3. Maintain an overall view of the institution to guide decisions

4. Review needs in terms of new construction, renovations, circulation, and access

5. Connect the qualities that make the County College of Morris special

1. Preserve the beauty, qualities, and features of the campus 2. Enhance our existing spaces and functions 3. Grow the campus in the direction that our community needs

Organization of the Plan The Master Plan is organized to provide a snapshot of the institution, limitations, goals, and vision of the College while creating guidelines for expansion, construction, and renovations. The current view of the campus looks at it as a holistic entity and as an interconnected system of components. The components of the plan include the history of the institution, campus building inventories, the planning process, campus grounds, vehicular/pedestrian circulation, and the visions and needs of the campus reflected through interviews, surveys, and committee input.

The campus inventory provides detailed information for the main buildings of the campus, the support structures, fields, grounds, parking, and other aspects of the built environment. Zoning restrictions, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, circulation plans, and code enforcement regulations are included to properly frame the campus inventory as it is currently and as it is planned.

Plan sustainability is addressed in the organization of the plan by providing an integrated view to guide decisions in a manner that is sustainable given an uncertain environment. Planning components are articulated to ensure changes in the region and higher education can be addressed as they arise and provide flexibility in the detail of those recommendations.

Master Plan Components are discussed individually and then presented as an overall plan (site plan). An alternate plan looking at adjacent building acquisitions is included, and both are followed by component-based estimated cost charts.

The Guidance section finishes the plan with information on maintaining the campus sense of place and suggestions to better secure designs that reflects the specific needs and aesthetic of the campus.


THE INSTITUTION

Profile/History of the Institution

County College of Morris (CCM) is located on 222 acres of rolling terrain in Randolph. The College first opened its doors to students in 1968 after Henderson Hall, the first building on campus, was completed. The first class consisted of 592 full-time and 703 part-time students. Enrollment grew quickly, and by the fall of 1969 five additional buildings were under way: the library (later named the Sherman H. Masten Learning Resource Center after CCM’s first president); Sheffield Hall; the Physical Education Building; the Student Community Center and a service building, all completed by 1970.

In the fall of 1973, two additional academic buildings, Cohen and DeMare halls, along with a planetarium, were completed. Through the 1970s, enrollment at the College continued to grow as CCM established itself as one of the premier community colleges in New Jersey. In 1982, the college reached its highest enrollment of 12,012 credit students, with thousands of additional individuals enrolled in certificate programs. That same year the Dalrymple House was renovated.

After two decades of leadership, President Masten retired in 1986 and Dr. Edward J. Yaw became the second president of CCM. Under his leadership, the College continued to grow. In 1989, Emeriti Hall was added and in May 1993 the College completed a 20,000 square-foot expansion of the library. The expansion contained television and audio production studios, additional library seating areas and a 45-seat conference room.

Expansion of the campus continued in 1994 with the construction of two additions that joined the three academic buildings. The 20,417 square-foot expansion added classrooms, laboratories, faculty offices, student lounges and an expanded cafeteria. In 1997, the College added a six-lane aquatic facility to the Health and Physical Education Building that is used by the College and local high schools.

In 2004, the College broke ground for the renovation and expansion of the Student Community Center. By the Fall 2005 semester, the building was open for students to enjoy. All enrollment and counseling functions were brought together in that facility including Admissions, Financial Aid, Academic Advisement, the Bursar and Counseling. The project also included an expanded campus store, renovated auditorium, cafeteria, game room and television lounge. One more exciting feature included a teaching kitchen, plus a dining/conference room for the Hospitality Management Program.

Following completion of the Student Community Center project, the College renovated Henderson Hall, CCM’s oldest building, which opened in 1968. The renovated building, completed in the spring of 2008, houses most of the administrative functions of the College, plus four general purpose classrooms and two corporate business training rooms. That same year, the College celebrated its 40th anniversary. In those 40 years, CCM graduated more than 40,000 students who were employed in all sectors of the county, most notably half of the county police force and half of the county nurses.

The 2008-09 academic year was also marked by more renovations. Many parking lots, sidewalks, stairs and athletic fields were renovated. In addition, nursing laboratories were renovated along with major renovations to the interior and exterior of Emeriti Hall. During the 2010-11 academic year, the Academic Complex underwent a major renovation including the installation of energy-efficient lighting. That year the College also started construction of a new Landscape and Horticultural Technology building as its first LEED certified building. Included among the building’s many green features are geothermal heating and cooling, photovoltaic roof panels, and a vegetated flat roof and rain collection system.

Building upon the College’s sustainability efforts, the Morris County Improvement Authority in 2012 installed solar panels over Parking Lots 2, 5, 6, 7 and 8 and on the rooftop of the Student Community Center. New exterior energy-efficient lighting also was installed by the College throughout the campus.

Also in 2012, the College purchased a one-story commercial building, on Route 10 in Randolph, as its first major expansion in nearly four decades. The 15,500 square-foot building, located at 675 Route 10 East, allowed the


College to increase classroom space to meet growing academic needs and provided for a new access road to and from Route 10.

In 2014, the College completed an extensive renovation to the Masten Learning Resource Center (LRC), which included consolidating the library on the second floor, a major expansion of the College’s art gallery and the addition of a café. Also in 2014, Rutgers entered into a partnership with the College to offer bachelor degree programs on the CCM campus.

In 2015, the Media Center, located within the LRC, was renovated and renamed in honor of late Assemblyman Alex DeCroce. That renovation was funded with $1 million from the Morris County Board of Freeholders’ capital budget and $900,000 raised by the CCM Foundation in individual, corporate, private foundation and public support.

In early 2016, the College opened its Music Technology Center, a state-of-the-art facility that houses the digital media technology, drama, media technology, music and music recording academic programs. The facility includes an experimental theater lab – theater in-the-round – that serves as a large hands-on classroom with a recording studio. Two standard classrooms, an electronic music/aural comprehension classroom and piano lab, a second recording studio, scene shop, dressing rooms and multiple student practice rooms are also included. The $8.5 million facility was constructed with funds provided through the Building Our Future Bond Act that was approved by New Jersey voters in 2012.

After serving as president for 30 years, Dr. Yaw retired in 2016 and Dr. Anthony J. Iacono became the College’s third president.

In 2017, the College became the first community college in New Jersey to gain designation as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education by the National Security Agency and Department of Homeland Security.

In 2018, as part of the College’s 50th anniversary celebrations, CCM launched a historic $2.1 million FORWARD Capital Campaign focused on funding programs and facility upgrades, including the Paragano Family Foundation Healthcare Simulation Center, a Cyber Security Suite, an enhanced Culinary Arts Training facility, a new Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering building, student scholarships and the Faculty Innovation Fund. Also in 2018, the College developed two new academic programs in animation and virtual reality to meet the demand for employees in these rapidly growing areas.


Integrated Planning

The College has an integrated approach to all campus planning. It aligns its various plans to ensure the spirit of the Mission Statement is maintained and resources are utilized in an integrated fashion. This alignment includes the Mission & Values Statements, current Strategic Plan, the Facilities Master Plan, Technology Plan, and Middle States Commission on Higher Education accreditation standards, the college budget and other planning components.

Mission & Value Statements Mission Statement

Strategic Planning In March 2018 the County College of Morris Board of Trustees approved the College’s new Strategic Plan. The purpose of strategic planning is to set overall goals for the college and to develop a plan to achieve them. Documenting achievement through a strategic plan provides evidence of accomplishing our mission.

Planning involves stepping back from day-to-day operations and asking where the college is headed and what its priorities should be, in context of its mission. Strategic planning affords us an opportunity to shape our preferred future, one designed collectively by us and intentionally focused on supporting our students’ successes. The collection of goals, objectives, measures contained in this document represent County College of Morris’ strategic plan for 2018-2020. While the core tenets of the plan will not change, it is a dynamic document that will likely have the objectives/activities associated with achieving the goals modified and updated over the next three years.

Standard V: Educational Effectiveness Assessment Standard VI: Planning, Resources, and Institutional Improvement Standard VII: Governance, Leadership, and Administration

The facilities and grounds of the College are integral parts of many of the standards. Instructional space conditions, resources, and space flexibility help ensure a responsive student learning experience (III) and facilitate changes and flexibility and instruction changes and developments. The student experience (IV) is enhanced by a diversity of spaces and opportunities on the campus. Fields and support for our student athletes help to develop well-rounded experiences along with opportunities for students to interact and develop social experiences. Planning and resource allocation are tied to the institution’s improvement (VI) by analyzing the impact of facility improvements and expansion on the students and community. Improvements ensure access to an array of programs and support an environment that is conducive to efficient and effective operations and instruction.

Deferred Maintenance Plan Deferred maintenance of building systems is aligned with the Master Plan to ensure funding is available for renovations and improvements while also considering the maintenance, replacement, and lifespans of existing systems and components. The College created a separate Deferred Maintenance Plan in 2015 to ensure these issues were planned for and addressed accordingly. It includes the following building systems in detail to ensure their continued operation and reliability is taken into account:

• HVAC and Domestic Hot Water Systems • Roofing Systems • Exterior Building Window Systems • Exterior Doors

• Campus Paving (Roadways, Parking, and Walkways) • Fire Alarm Systems • Fixed Seating Systems • Exterior Lighting Systems

• Specialty Systems (Greenhouses, Stairs, Etc.) • Campus & Building Electrical Systems

The 2015-2020 Deferred Maintenance Plan is the result of collaboration between the County College of Morris Plant & Maintenance Department, Facilities Planning, and V.P. of Business & Finance with the intent that it is used as a guide for future deferred maintenance planning. Deferred maintenance is as important as capital planning to the successful operation of all facilities to ensure continuous safe and healthy environments that use available resources efficiently and prudently.

The Deferred Maintenance Plan (the plan) provides a blueprint to be followed sequentially based on current needs and conditions. It defines that sequence in a recommended schedule based on multiple factors, and provides a general construction budget for each project based on the assumed needs.


The planning process started with a thorough review of available documentation including: system maintenance & operation logs, system testing reports, and historical data to determine the current conditions of the equipment. Expected lifespans of the equipment were deduced from manufacturer information, industry standards, or CCM past experience. This lifespan was further refined through the creation of a recommended replacement date that further extends (or defers) the system replacement as indicated by continuing good preventative maintenance and repairs performed by the College’s experienced staff or outside contractors where necessary.

The proposed plan is the cumulative information of this document and as such, should not be further summarized or taken in sections. Information should remain in context to the other sections to ensure that it is analyzed correctly and the impacts to other aspects are realized.

Only recommended replacement dates in the next seven years are detailed with estimates. System recommended replacement dates that extend beyond that period offer much less accuracy and should be reviewed during the next deferred maintenance plan period. It is likely, with good preventative maintenance, that these systems’ performance may be further deferred (or extended).

A thorough and properly funded preventative maintenance program is important for extending any system or equipment lifespan. Through this routine service, the deferral of system replacement can be realized. It is strongly recommended to continue the current caliber of preventative maintenance as it has allowed many campus systems to operate well beyond their expected lifespans.

Each building system was looked at independently and recommendations were made appropriately. Scheduled replacement dates were then compiled into the replacement schedule outline. This seven-year schedule may need to be adjusted to cluster projects together for economies of scale or to reflect available funding.

Questions regarding the Deferred Maintenance Plan should be directed to the Director of Plant & Maintenance (x5500) or the Associate Director of Plant and Maintenance (x5502).

Custodial Operations Plan The method that facilities are cleaned is handled through the custodial operations department and the Facilities Master Plan is coordinated with the Custodial Operations Plan. Facility decisions take into account system or the materials’ lifespan and the ability to be cleaned and maintained with limited resources to ensure funding is used effectively and efficiently.

The County College of Morris custodial operations are committed to maintaining a safe, hygienic, and clean environment for students, faculty, and staff. The campus contains approximately 567,255 square feet of gross conditioned space being cleaned by eight (8) full-time day custodians, sixteen (16) full-time night custodians, seven (7) part-time night custodians, and one (1) working night supervisor.

Day custodians are assigned per building and are responsible for policing their areas, spot cleaning (restrooms), checking classrooms for evening classrooms, and special assignments. Day custodians also assist with surplus and moving furniture/equipment for renovations.

Evening custodial operations concentrate mainly on cleaning the campus with the exception of the Planetarium, Bookstore, Human Resources, President’s Office, Health Services, and the Business & Finance Suite, which are maintained by the day staff. During academic breaks, day & night staff also work on refinishing VCT floors, carpet cleaning, K-Vac work, and special ceramic tile cleaning. The evening staff are also responsible for set-ups and special requests assigned to them.

The evening custodial staff are deployed by position number and as per the justification from the budget (see the “Work Area Assignments” section). Floor plans are included in this document that show the night custodian distribution under normal circumstances. Each employee should be trained in their area and cross-trained in other buildings to ensure proper coverage. Both day and night operations need to compensate for absenteeism (sick days, vacation, worker comp, or other reasons) by redeploying staff and splitting the duties of the missing custodians. Special assignments and work orders may also require redistribution of effort to ensure basic cleaning is performed throughout the campus.

The Supervisor of Custodial & Grounds directly oversees the delegation of preventative maintenance work orders and special assignments. The Supervisor of Custodial & Grounds meets regularly with the Associate Director of Plant & Maintenance and/or the Working Evening Supervisor to discuss workloads, set-ups, and to review work order completion.

Custodial operations are also assessed regularly under the “General Housekeeping” program within Outcomes Assessment and through the Plant & Maintenance questionnaire.

During the summer of 2016, the processes and assignments of the custodial operations were reassessed to determine and implement beneficial changes. The plan reflects those changes and will be reassessed in 2020 to ensure the document remains reflective of the needs and goals of the campus.

Questions regarding the Custodial Operations Plan should be directed to the Director of Plant & Maintenance (x5500) or the Associate Director of Plant and Maintenance (x5502).

Area Vehicular Circulation The campus is located in the southern part of northern New Jersey. Major arteries accessible from the College include Route 80, US Route 46, NJ State Route 24, and NJ State Route 10. These roadways also connect to larger interstate roads including Interstate 287, the Garden State Parkway, and Interstate 95 (New Jersey Turnpike). Public Transit includes the MC2 NJ Transit bus line that stops on the campus and the closest commuter rail is the NJ Transit Morris/Essex line that stops in Dover, approximately 2.5 miles from the campus. Transfer from the Morris County Metro Bus line to the campus from the rail is possible.

The included Randolph Master Plan Circulation Map shows the relationship between the campus and community with the functional classification of area roads.

Current plans can be found at: http://www.randolphnj.org/government/master_plan

http://www.randolphnj.org/government/master_plan



Area Non-Vehicular Circulation Surrounding roads have minimal shoulders and are not pedestrian and bike-friendly at this time. Inclusion of bike lanes or sidewalks on roadways connecting the surrounding communities to the campus would allow for alternate commuting means for a larger population of Randolph.

The extension of the existing trail system to connect the campus to Randolph and the rest of Morris County would be a viable option. The included plans show the current status of the trail system and alternate plans to connect them to the campus in the individual Master Plans. There are two different connection options shown and either would be viable means to connect the campus to the local roads (avoiding the main arteries where shoulder space, vehicle speeds, and visibility are a concern.

An unofficial trail exists in the southern portion of the campus through the woods and connecting to the athletic fields. The trail is cleared as necessary by the College and the foot bridge over the Mill Brook connector was replaced in 2018 with a new US Forestry Services approved design. Downed trees in the area were also cleared to facilitate movement through the area.

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan/Water/Sewage All new construction and site features must be included in the College’s overall stormwater pollution prevention plan, and be in compliance with the applicable Randolph Township, Morris County Soil Conservation District (MCSCD), and New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) requirements. Treatment Works Authority (TWA) approval for new connections will likely require submission to the EPA/NJDEP for approval as Block 81:Lot 1 is identified as an Environmentally Sensitive Area (ESA) location due to the presence of possible wetlands on their mapping system.

All new construction will need to go through a Randolph Planning Board courtesy review that acts as an introduction of the project for the TWA and SRO processes that will follow.

New structures and additions may also require special approval for water connections from the Township and the Courts if the Scarce Resource Order (SRO) is in effect at the time of the request.

Parking/Grounds

Parking Facilities, Entrances and Roadways As a county college in New Jersey, students typically drive themselves to campus (often one student per car). The student version of the master planning survey confirmed that the majority of students drive to campus alone or at most one other person. There is also access to one bus route that stops at the Student Center, and the most used NJ Transit train stop is in Dover. Walking and riding bicycles is very limited given the types of roads in the local community that have no bike lanes or are too heavily used, with little shoulder, for safe cycling. The beginning of the Fall semesters is the most heavily used time period each year. Parking on campus is distributed around the perimeter of the built core and represent over 3,250 spaces in lots reserved for students or faculty/staff.

Parking lots provide standard parking, accessible parking, medical reserved parking, car pool parking, and reserved parking spots. Medical reserved spots are available through special permission of the Health Services office and are available to all State Accessible parking decal/hangtag users.

Review of the Fall parking lot access (using the campus camera system’s recorded video on multiple days over varying time periods) indicated that there were sufficient parking spots available to students throughout the week and day. Often, the closest lots were full while parking lot 3 and the rear portion of parking lot 1 contained a large quantity of unused spaces. With the current enrollment and commuting trends, it does not appear that additional spaces are needed on campus. However, to ensure spots are available and sufficient space for growth is maintained, any reduction in the quantity of parking spaces is strongly discouraged.

Additional parking will be needed in the event of additional buildings being placed on campus (resulting in the attraction of new students in either the credit or non-credit groups). Parking will also need to be considered in the event of large changes in enrollment or increases in public services during core campus hours.

Student drop-off & pick-up areas were requested as part of the Student Master Plan Survey. The current popular locations for pick-up/drop-off are the top of the hill at the crosswalk to parking lot 1, Titan drive adjacent to the HPE and the LRC areas, and the parking lot 6 areas at the end of the walkway to the upper level of the Student Center.

Athletic Fields Campus Athletic Fields are in various states of condition. Each was reviewed individually and with the input of the Athletics Department for the course of action/recommendations.

The tennis court restrooms are in rough condition and need both a cosmetic update and functional improvements to increase reliability of their services. These restrooms serve the tennis courts, baseball field, and pavilion functions. Updates should include materials suited for wet conditions, vandal resistant, and should be re-designated as uni-sex or gender-neutral as designated genders for single use facilities in limited quantities is counterproductive.

Irrigation for all turf athletic fields would be beneficial to ensure healthy turf and safe playing conditions. A well system should be considered for its benefits in addition to a standard public potable water solution. The irrigation system should be multi-zones per field and include a timing system along with a smart controller to take into consideration natural rain, field conditions and seasonal usage.

The grass turf needs to have new soil and lawn on most fields. A synthetic turf should be considered for at least one field. Field lighting would be beneficial and extend the availability for College and local teams.

The Support Information The support information came from surveys, interviews, and department meetings, and was used to synthesize a group of needs directly from the divisions, departments and individuals (students, faculty and staff). Two surveys were issued for the students and the faculty/staff groups. Both surveys had 7 total questions with 5 multiple choice (w/comment section) and 2 write-in answers. The survey and interview process represented a much larger push for input from a broader stakeholder base than previous plans. The web-based survey was distributed in a more convenient format, including an introduction to the process and emphasis on the input of the stakeholders in the body of the email. The Master Plan Steering Committee contributed to the formation of the questions and the review/analysis of the responses.

Campus Surveys

Faculty/Staff Survey There were 158 responses to the faculty/staff survey, compared to 51 total responses to the 2010 Master Plan survey.

Results of the interviews and questionnaires are stored electronically for review. The input and trends gleamed from this input were directly integrated into the Master Plan Components.

Space Inventory Review The College keeps a space inventory through an existing electronic system available directly through Academic Affairs. The inventory was reviewed and updated as necessary.

All new renovation projects, additions, and new buildings are reflected in the software and used to schedule classes, courses, and sections. The system maintains an inventory of classroom capacity, technology, equipment (marker/chalk boards), and other available instructional aids. The Master Plan process utilized this system rather than creating a redundant inventory. Current space inventory inquiries can be directed to the Academic Affairs department to ensure information is current and accurate at the time of the request.

THE PLAN COMPONENTS The Master Plan recommendations are divided into specific components and are the result of the planning process, interviews, surveys, and input from the various stakeholders of the institution. Each component is described in detail, given the current understanding of that need. These components are the result of the broader requirements and deficiencies of the institution but reflect the current understanding only. As each component is planned for individually, there will be the need for specific programming based on the operations, site, funding, needs, and various resources.


DEDICATED ACADEMIC BUILDING ONE - SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS A high priority need identified during the programming phase is a dedicated academic building that will allow for the reduction of specialized classrooms and labs in the main academic complex. The focus of this building would be programs within the School of Liberal Arts. The new building would be programmed for specific academic programs that have an identified need for custom spaces. The programs to be located in the new building would likely be existing programs relocated to the new structure and new programs or expansions that would be benefit from the new location built specifically to house those instructional needs. The classes within the programs in the building would be split between the new facility and the existing Academic Complex. Specialized space for the programs would mainly be held within the new facility.

The siting preference for this building would be the open space between Henderson Hall and Sheffield Hall on the slope near the current accessibility ramp. This ramp would be built into the front of the new building and offer the use of the building’s elevator as an alternative to the ramp. The College should consider a small to medium lot added to this lawn area to add accessible parking for the building. If a new lot is not constructed, the existing accessible parking in parking lot #5 should be increased appropriately to serve this new building as parking lots #4, #3, and #2 are not accessible or are not on the best accessible route.

A second option for the building would be sloped lawn area behind the Academic Complex as shown diagrammatically in the Master Plan. This location would also benefit from a small new parking lot focused on accessible parking and to provide a drop-off location or pick-up location for students. This waiting area would allow for the movement of art projects more conveniently and would remove the pick-up location for students waiting (for pick-up) at the crosswalk at the top of parking lot #1.

The proposed building would be between 30,000 and 45,000 square feet in size depending on the program needs being relocated to the space. The building would be between 2-3 stories depending on the programs. Local zoning codes limit buildings in the area to two stories; however, it would be built as a two-story building above grade with the lowest level being partially beneath the grade given the slope of the existing site. It is also believed that a waiver or variance to the ordinance could be issued given the nature of the College.

Component alignment with other plans: The following are the alignments with other planning documents.

Information Systems and Institutional Effectiveness Technology Plan 2018-2020:

The new academic building will include technology in line with the plan’s Network, Classroom Technology, and Laboratory Technology standards. Audio/Visual equipment will meet the plan standards along with the ideal wireless network capabilities.


DEDICATED ACADEMIC BUILDING TWO - SCHOOL OF HEALTH PROFESSIONS AND NATURAL SCIENCES A high priority need identified during the programming phase is a dedicated academic building with the focus on programs within the School of Health Professions and Natural Sciences. The new building would be programmed for specific academic programs that have an identified need for custom spaces. The programs to be located in the new building would likely be existing programs relocated to the new structure and new programs or expansions that would be benefit from the new location built specifically to house those instructional needs. The classes within the programs in the building would be split between the new facility and the existing Academic Complex. Specialized space for the programs would mainly be held within the new facility.

The siting preference for this building would be the open space below Sheffield and Emeriti Halls. This location would also benefit from a small new parking lot focused on accessible parking and to provide a drop-off location or pick-up location for students. This waiting area would allow for easy commuting with others, and relocate the pick-up location for students waiting for pick-up at the crosswalk at the top of parking lot #1 (also identified during the survey and interviews). If a new lot is not constructed, the existing accessible parking in parking lot #5 should be increased appropriately to serve this new building as parking lots #4, #3, #2 and #1 are not accessible or are not on the best accessible route.

A second option for the building would be the sloped area between the Health & Physical Education (HPE) Building and the Learning Resource Center (LRC) Addition. The site aligns itself well with the HPE and can share exercise space and labs. The building would offer an inviting and accessible elevator that could assist individuals with traversing the adjacent steep walkway. It would frame the proposed Student Commons and allow for outdoor instruction, and further provide life to the student seating area.

The proposed building would be approximately 30,000 square feet in size depending on the program needs being relocated to the space. The building would be between 2-3 stories depending on the programs. Local zoning codes limit buildings in the area to two stories; however, it would be built as a two-story building above grade with the lowest level being partially beneath the grade given the slope of the existing site. It is also believed that a waiver or variance to the ordinance could be issued given the nature of the College.

Strategic Goal II: Improve Student Success Through “Excellence in Teaching in All Academic Programs.” – Allow instruction to dictate space design to improve student success.






Middle States:






The new academic building for the School of Health Professions and Natural Sciences supports the College’s Mission of excellence in teaching and lifelong learning by creating specialized space for existing and new programs while expanding workforce development opportunities. This will be further accomplished by creating an environment that supports the students and community while improving accessibility to programs and spaces.


The new academic building for the School of Health Professions and Natural Sciences will include technology in line with the plan’s Network, Classroom Technology, and Laboratory Technology standards. Audio/Visual equipment will meet the plan standards along with the ideal wireless network capabilities.


EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES, TRAINING AND PROFESSIONAL CENTER The future need for expanded space for emerging technologies, information technology, and other technical programs reflects the direction of the county’s economic development plans, student demands, and workforce development needs and will be accommodated in this facility.

The Center would be a further expansion of the Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering Center that is under design during this master planning process. The addition would likely be composed of a 22,000 square foot footprint and physically connect to the Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering Center. The parking would be further expanded to accommodate the addition’s occupants. A second floor of the addition is also envisioned to handle other programs.

The Emerging Technology Center would likely include programs such as Information Technology, Cyber Security, Robotics, Photonics/Motion, Digital Media, Game Development, Maker’s Spaces, Artificial Intelligence, Systems Integration, and Information & Data Analytics. These programs would be mutually beneficial with those in the Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering Center programs. The connections would help connect theory, programming, manufacturing, and fabrication in technical emerging technologies.

The siting preference for this building would be the open space to the Southwest of the Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering Center. It would share the existing parking lots and likely require the expansion of Parking Lot #9 to the west (doubling its size).

The proposed building would be approximately 44,000 square feet in size. The building would be between one and two stories depending on the programs.

The new Emerging Technologies, Training and Professional Center will include technology in line with the plan’s Network, Classroom Technology, and Laboratory Technology standards. Audio/Visual equipment will meet the plan standards along with the ideal wireless network capabilities. These technology standards would be extended to levels closer to cutting-edge, given the programs hosted in the building.


VOCATIONAL-TECHNICAL DISCIPLINE BUILDING The future need for expanded space for Vocational and Technical Disciplines is needed due to the continued expansion of the successful partnership of the College and the Morris County School of Technology (Vo-Tech). The Building would allow for expansion of the popular Challenger Program and partnerships for dual enrollment. The new building would likely be composed of a 30,000 to 60,000 square foot footprint and physically connect to the campus infrastructure. It could be located adjacent to an existing academic structure or adjacent to the main campus (adjacent property acquisition). The parking for the building would need to be separate from existing lots to allow for the additional off campus commuting and should include drop-off and pick-up areas.

The Vocational-Technical Discipline Center would likely include programs such as Technical programs (Engineering Design, Cyber Security, Computer Information Sciences, Biotechnology, Fabrication, Automotive, etc.), Health Sciences (Allied Health, Animal Science, Environmental Sciences, Therapy, etc.), Construction Sciences (Carpentry, Electrical Trades, Plumbing, Welding, Buildings & Grounds Maintenance, etc.), and Art & Design fields (Culinary Arts, Multimedia, Performing Arts, Cosmetology, Interior Design, etc.). These programs would be mutually beneficial between the College’s Matriculating Programs and those for certification, workforce development, and Vo-Tech courses. The connections would help connect theory, programming, technical skills in an effort to promote continued education, degree and certification stacking.

The siting preference for this building would be the open space to the southwest of the Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering Center. It would share the existing parking lots and likely require the expansion of Parking Lot #9 to the west (doubling its size). Other siting options would include a new property adjacent to the current campus or an inner campus site depending on the programs anticipated for the building and their connections to existing capabilities in current buildings.

The proposed building would be approximately 30,000 to 60,000 square feet in size. The building would be between one and two stories depending on the programs.

HEALTH & PHYSICAL EDUCATION BUILDING EXPANSION The new addition was identified on the 2010-2022 Master Plan. A modest addition would include multipurpose space used for various dance and fitness classes, and as lab space for the Exercise Science program. The connection between the buildings would include a new covered entry. The building would allow for the expansion of existing programs and the development of new related and emerging programs. The building would be a flexible shell space with large clear spans and support services. The slab-on-grade construction may include a partially sprung floor and areas for equipment and weights. The Exercise Science programs could utilize this space as additional lab area. The building support areas would include restrooms, a family/gender-neutral restroom, and team/changing rooms.

The addition would be located in the no-mow field to the west of the existing HPE building. The space requirements lend themselves to a pre-manufactured building and slab-on-grade construction. The clear floor space and higher ceiling height would need to be considered in the design. Accessible parking spaces would need to be added to parking lot #7, to accommodate the addition. If it was determined that further parking expansion was warranted, it would likely be through an expansion (doubling) of parking lot #9.

The proposed addition would be approximately 18,000 square feet in size depending on the program needs. The building would be one story tall.


Strategic Plan:





Strategic Goal IX: Diversify and Increase Sources of Revenue – The building would allow for new matriculating, non-matriculating, wellness programs, and the use of the facilities by outside local programs.


Middle States:

Standard I: Mission & Goals – The new building will assist in moving forward the College’s Mission of providing quality education, accessible programs, and furthering the opportunities of our community.





The new Health & Physical Education Building Expansion supports the College’s Mission of excellence in teaching and lifelong learning by creating specialized space for existing and new programs while expanding wellness program opportunities. This will be further accomplished by creating an environment that supports the students and community while improving accessibility to programs and spaces.


The Health & Physical Education Building Expansion will include technology in line with the plan’s Network, Classroom Technology, and Laboratory Technology standards. Audio/Visual equipment will meet the plan standards along with the ideal wireless network capabilities.


ATHLETIC FIELD IMPROVEMENTS New athletic spaces that were determined to be needed to improve programs, expand athletic diversity, and recreational spaces are a track, outdoor basketball courts, sand volley ball courts, synthetic multipurpose field and similar spaces that offer both athletic diversity and communal space. Renovations to the baseball field and multipurpose turf fields are needed to provide improved drainage, turf, seating, scoreboards and lighting.

Synthetic Turf Field: The project would likely involve upgrading the upper athletic field with a synthetic turf and adding spectator seating, a score board, and field lighting. The project would increase team usage, hours of operation, field rentals, and community usage. The turf field would be usable during wet weather and provide alternate field types for usage on campus.

Track: The track would likely be included with the renovation of an existing field. A synthetic ‘rubber’ running surface of 6-8 lanes, and ideally a quarter mile (400 meter) track, would be beneficial. Spectator seating could be used for the track or inner field and include other possible track & field sports. The project would again expand campus offerings and community use along with rental opportunities.

Outdoor Basketball Courts: To further diversify athletic offerings, the outdoor basketball courts could be used for academic programs and for student recreation.

Sand Volleyball Courts: Generally used for student engagement and satisfaction, these courts require little maintenance and provide a recreational opportunity for students in between classes and for leisure use. They could be placed on smaller portions of flat campus turf areas and would only require a short barrier to limit errant ball loss.

Renovated Baseball Field: The project would include improved field drainage, irrigation, new tuff, dugouts, expanded spectator seating, larger scoreboards, bull pens, and infield improvements. Field lighting and foul area netting to protect against lost balls would be considered if funding is available.

Renovated Turf Fields: New turf for the multi-purpose fields, irrigation, and spectator seating is needed. Improved scoreboards and amenities would be considered along with appropriate landscaping improvements.


Strategic Plan:

Strategic Goal III: Increase Enrollment, Retention, Completion, Transfer and Career Advancement – Provide improved facilities for current and prospective student activities, athletics, engagement, and satisfaction.


Strategic Goal IV: Strengthen Relationship between CCM and the Community – The facility would increase space to accommodate additional students, new programs, and diversify recreational and athletic opportunities.

Standard IV: Support of the Student Experience – Create spaces that improve the students’ on campus

experience and opportunities for recreational development.

Standard VI: Planning, Resources, and Institutional Improvement – Ensures adequate and effective spaces are created with the resources needed to support those functions.


The athletic field improvements support the College’s Mission of excellence in teaching and lifelong learning by creating accessible and diverse recreational and athletic spaces for students with varied interests.


The improvements will likely include expansion of the campus wireless network system to cover the areas, and spectator seating allowing for multifunction spaces to perform, study, or relax.


ACCESSIBILITY IMPROVEMENTS Elevator access is needed to the third floors of the Academic Complex (Sheffield, Cohen and DeMare). Given the layout of the building and the disconnect of the three third floor spaces, there would be the addition of new elevators for each building that replace the old elevators. The elevator shafts and associated equipment rooms would be converted to single-person, gender-neutral restrooms for each building. The restrooms would provide increased accessible options and may be more comfortable for wheelchair users who utilize the assistance of another person which may or may not be of the same gender.

Accessibility improvements around the campus would include improved wayfinding signage, electronic assistance information, expansion of automatic doors, infrastructure and user assistance technologies.

Standard IV: Support of the Student Experience – Allow instruction and accessibility to dictate space design to improve student success.

Standard VI: Planning, Resources, and Institutional Improvement – Ensures adequate resources are available for accessibility concerns and improvements to meet and exceed required minimums.



The improvements support the College’s Mission of excellence in teaching and lifelong learning by creating accessible space for existing and new programs while making improvements beyond code required minimums. This will be further accomplished by creating an environment that supports the students and community while improving accessibility to programs and spaces.

• Supporting a commitment to diversity that respects individual differences and upholds the dignity of every person.

• Supporting a commitment to providing access and services to all regardless of financial, academic, educational or physical challenges.

• Supporting a commitment to people, evidenced by a secure, supportive environment responsive to the needs of students, employees and the community.


The accessibility improvements will include technology in line with the plan’s Network, Classroom Technology, and Laboratory Technology standards in regards to accessibility. Audio/Visual equipment will meet the plan standards and provide improved visual and audio services.


STUDENT GATHERING SPACES / OUTDOOR COMMONS The need to improve outdoor student gathering and seating spaces was identified. Seating would be located at various walkways and especially those on steep inclines. A centralized outdoor seating area was also identified to provide a common and collaborative area for students to gather.

The student outdoor commons would be located in an area to create tiered seating and would be situated so accessible spaces would be at varying levels and provide connection points to existing and proposed adjacent buildings. Landscaping would be used to provide visual interest, sound control, and create smaller areas within the larger outdoor commons. Varying seating levels and types would diversify the space types and usage. Larger areas would accommodate between 20 and 30 students and allow for classes to be held outdoors if desired.

Lawn tiers (natural or synthetic turf) would be used to minimize impervious coverage and to provide natural seating and visual interest. Planting would vary in height, type, and biodiversity and could be tied to the Landscape & Horticultural Technology programs. If the budget allowed, a water feature has been a popular addition to these spaces on other campuses.


Strategic Plan:

Strategic Goal III: Increase Enrollment, Retention, Completion, Transfer and Career Advancement – Provide improved outdoor facilities for current and prospective student activities, collaboration, engagement, and satisfaction.

Strategic Goal IV: Strengthen Relationship between CCM and the Community – The areas would increase space to accommodate additional students, new collaboration, and diversify social gathering opportunities.

Strategic Goal IX: Diversify and Increase Sources of Revenue – The improvements would allow for new outdoor spaces for meetings, performances, and events.

Middle States:

Standard I: Mission & Goals – The improvements would advance the College’s Mission of providing quality education, accessible programs, and furthering the opportunities of our community.

Standard IV: Support of the Student Experience – Create spaces that improve the students’ on campus experience and opportunities for social/recreational development.

Standard VI: Planning, Resources, and Institutional Improvement – Ensures adequate and effective spaces are created with the resources needed to support those functions.


The outdoor space improvements support the College’s Mission of excellence in teaching and lifelong learning by creating accessible and diverse recreational, social, and collaborative spaces for individuals of varying interests.


The outdoor space improvements will likely include expansion of the campus wireless network system to cover the seating and gathering spaces allowing for multifunction spaces to perform, study, or relax.


IMPROVED COMMUNITY ACCESS CONNECTIONS The average student commutes to the College in a variety of ways. Predominantly that is a personal vehicle (often alone). The master plan survey confirmed this, and the students’ willingness to consider alternate commuting strategies. These alternate strategies include carpooling, mass transit, walking/biking, etc. A number of possible construction projections to support these efforts should be considered based on outside factors. The following are examples of the construction impact of these opportunities:

Carpooling: Student pick-up and drop off areas do not exist on campus in a formal way. There are areas in front of the HPE along Titan Drive and at the Campus Drive crosswalk to the center of parking lot #1 that are used for pick-up and drop-off that cause dangerous situations for other vehicles and pedestrians. The creation of extended pavement areas for these functions at two or more locations on campus may help promote carpooling or ride sharing opportunities.

Mass Transit: The main mass transit options are NJ Transit buses or the train station in Dover (accessing the campus from the station via a bus). Additional bus stop lines can be encouraged if demand is present and additional bus parking/stop construction could be beneficial. Bus stop enclosures for inclement weather and convenience can be considered to help promote the service.

Walking/Biking: The roads surrounding the campus are not bike/pedestrian friendly. The campus roads have a lower speed limit and can include cycling/pedestrian awareness signage. Getting cyclists/pedestrians to campus safely will likely entail connection to the Randolph and Morris County Trail Systems. This would provide a safe and maintained system to get to campus. On campus improvements may include additional walkways to the connection points, bike racks, and other amenities.


Strategic Plan:

Strategic Goal III: Increase Enrollment, Retention, Completion, Transfer and Career Advancement – Provide improved facilities for current and prospective student enrollment, retention, and graduation by providing alternate means of getting to campus and classes which will broaden access and convenience.

Strategic Goal IV: Strengthen Relationship between CCM and the Community – The connection improvements would increase opportunities for alternate commuting for various demographics, those without access to automobiles, etc.


Strategic Goal X: Workforce Development Expansion – The connection improvements would increase opportunities for local community, workforce, and businesses to access the campus through means other than the automobile.

Middle States:

Standard I: Mission & Goals – The new building will assist in moving forward the College’s Mission of providing access to quality education, workforce development, and furthering the opportunities of our community.

Standard IV: Support of the Student Experience – Allow commuting flexibility to those who have difficulty accessing campus and for those individuals who have their commuting options disrupted.

Standard VI: Planning, Resources, and Institutional Improvement – Ensures adequate and effective spaces are created with the resources needed to support commuting alternatives.


The improving of connections to the campus supports the College’s Mission of excellence in teaching and lifelong learning by creating new opportunities for students and the community to access the campus.


RENOVATIONS The need to update various academic, administrative, student support, and facility support spaces to align with current and future needs is an ongoing process. As the College continues past its 50th anniversary, many spaces have exceeded their useful lifespan and need to be addressed in a cyclical pattern. The College’s Deferred Maintenance plan identifies infrastructure improvements that are needed, but renovations address functional, technology, and operations changes for various spaces and departments.


Strategic Plan:







Middle States:







The building renovations supports the College’s Mission of excellence in teaching and lifelong learning by creating specialized space for existing and new programs while expanding workforce development opportunities. This will be further accomplished by creating an environment that supports the students and community while improving accessibility to programs and spaces.


The new renovations will include technology in line with the plan’s Network, Classroom Technology, and Laboratory Technology standards. Audio/Visual equipment will meet the plan standards along with the ideal wireless network capabilities. These technology standards would be extended to levels closer to cutting edge given the programs hosted in the building.

Deferred Maintenance Plan

Deferred maintenance of building systems is aligned with the Master Plan to ensure available funding is available for renovations and improvements while also considering the maintenance, replacement, and lifespans of existing systems and components. The Deferred Maintenance Plan (the plan) provides a blueprint to be followed sequentially, based on current needs and conditions. It defines that sequence in a recommended schedule based on multiple factors, and provides a general construction budget for each project based on the assumed needs. Renovation projects are coordinated with the Deferred Maintenance Plan to insure disruptions are minimized and funding is used efficiently.


THE MASTER PLAN Existing Campus Plan The current plan addressed most of the 2010 Master Plan components and is reflected in the current site plan. The construction of the Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering Center is anticipated to start in early 2019 and will be located to the south of Building 675 (#13), in the cleared area.

The natural environment of the campus and the built environment’s sense of “place” are reflected in the current layout of the campus and recent construction projects. Parking is available on the perimeter of the campus, with the core of the campus remaining pedestrian oriented. Athletic fields are clustered together and support buildings are on the exterior of the College Avenue roadway.

Easements on the property include standard easements from the surrounding roadways and the through campus JCP&L easement that is reflected in the lack of vegetation following the path of the overhead high-voltage lines shown. Restrictions for the easements can be found with the College’s Public Records Custodian.


Master Plan – Proposed Building Components The buildings shown on the plan do not represent a specific academic function or program. Each area represents a potential building site that maintains the current circulation patterns and infrastructure availability.

Each structure footprint represents only the footprint of a one- to two- story building. Below grade stories are not included in Township Height Restrictions. Sloped areas present the opportunity to have buildings with walk-out levels at multiple stories.

All new buildings will be equipped with modern elevators and assist with traversing steep exterior slopes/terrain.

Addition of elevators to the Academic Complex is shown on the Master Plan – Site Features plan that follows.


Master Plan – Site Features The initial locations for the identified site features are based on currently know conditions and potential projects.

Parking garages are shown if impervious coverage restrictions affect future projects and other infiltration/detention structures are not feasible. An addition of a parking garage will allow parking quantities to remain while removing a portion of the surface lots for compliance.

Each element is discussed in the Master Plan Component section of the plan.

Proposed electronic entrance sign locations are indicated to complete the exterior emergency/immediate notification system of the campus.

Outdoor athletic courts, tracks, spaces are shown for reference. Actual activities may include basketball courts, beach volley ball (sand court), open fields for Frisbee or similar games, and a track as examples.

Additional surface parking at new buildings will be addressed at the time of the projects. Attention should be given to maintaining a vegetated perimeter to the campus for screening purposes and to maintain the natural setting.

Potential elevator locations are shown for the Academic Complex.


Estimated Costs These estimated costs represent square footage prices based on current construction cost indexes. Each plan component is broken out with type, size, cost basis, cost per unit, total construction cost, Furniture/Fixtures/Equipment (FF&E) basis/cost, and a total project cost. Each individual component cost represents the assumed scope based on CCM standard construction and design over the past few years.

Deferred maintenance projects that are handled under the College’s current Deferred Maintenance Plan are not included. Examples of these projects include roof replacements, HVAC only work, fire alarm and controls upgrades, water systems, paving replacements, etc.

Alternate Master Plan – Proposed Building Components The restrictions involved with the Scarce Resource Order (SRO) for water connections to new campus buildings and the availability of sewage capacity from the Rockaway Valley Sewer Authority put additional restrictions on construction on the campus. These restrictions are added to the stormwater regulations and the increase in impervious coverage of the campus. An alternate approach to building new structures is the acquiring of existing adjacent structures and properties to accomplish the same space requirements of the Master Plan components.

Existing commercial structures along Route 10 Eastbound, at the northwest corner of the campus, provide similar spatial needs for various components. Smaller need areas such as the creation of an Honors College, Alumni Center, or other space needs could be supported through the purchase of adjacent residential properties. The Alternate Master Plan – Proposed Building Components reflects potential areas of increase for obtaining already built structures on adjacent lots.

GUIDANCE “Place” Through the survey and interviews there was overwhelming consensus that a significant strength of the College is the aesthetics of the campus, the natural setting, and the balance or consistency of the constructed campus. A design and material pallet is maintained from project to project to ensure consistency and to define the campus as a specific “place” in Morris County. Steps were recommended to ensure that this successful design is maintained and continued forward as the campus continues to grow and evolve.

The campus surveys and interviews highlighted that the strength of CCM is due in part to its sense of place and as a destination. The campus offers a natural, well-maintained, and safe environment that is calming and reflects the goals of the campus. Education should be the focus, and the environment must allow instruction to take center stage with few distractions.

Design Standard A campus design standard should be created to ensure a written document to guide future planning and designs. The document would be a resource for new engineers and architects to ensure that consistency is maintained and that campus features are preserved. The design standard would encompass exterior building forms, exterior material selection, interior design/materials, space planning features, and minimum design elements for OSHA compliance, safety, and accessibility.

The following subjects should be used as a start for the CCM Design Standard. The subjects below are a beginning and should be expanded to include all concerns of design for the College.

Exterior materials: A starting point for the exterior materials portion would be to continue the material pallet of Delaware Valley Field Stone, Stucco, and metal panel systems. Delaware Valley Field stone should be incorporated in facades as the base material at the ground plain and at vertical elements. Metal panel systems would continue the color pallet established in the Student Center, Engineering Building, and Henderson Hall. Proportions of the panels would be dependent on the building and element sizes and that of adjacent buildings. Stucco materials (concrete, EIFS, or other systems) would be used at fenestrations and as field elements. While glass block (Aquatic Center), pebble panels (HPE), and other materials are used in portions of existing buildings, these should be avoided when not needed to connect to adjacent buildings. The Student Center and MTC use specific masonry units in their design which can be continued for those interconnected structures housing student service functions.

Exterior features: Campus walkways would be indicated to remain bituminous pavement with patios as paver systems. Plantings along walkways shall pull from the current pallet of trees and should be focused on flowering ornamental trees. Base planting should include low maintenance perennials and woody shrubs. Exterior hose bibs (locking and frost free) shall be located every 150’ along the exterior of the building where lawn or plantings exist. Walkways and patios are to include fixed seating either matching the existing black powder coated steel benches or the newer recycled plastic ADA-compliant benches. Picnic tables shall also match the existing standard recycled plastic, hexagon style and include at least one ADA-compliant table per cluster.

Building identification shall be through exterior wall mounted pin letters to match the style and finish of the existing adjacent buildings. Exterior lighting shall be installed on all building identification signage. All exterior pole mounted lights shall match the existing standard LED pole and fixture (Phillips Lumec RaodStar).

Design features: A portion of the standard would include elemental design features. Accessibility would include minimum compliance features above and beyond those required by code. Each primary entrance should have an automatic door opener (motion based is preferred over a plate activated door). A minimum of one family style or unisex restroom shall be included in each building. The restroom would ideally be fully ADA-compliant, have a changing table, and have a single stall inside for younger family members or an assistant, and should provide a gender-neutral restroom alternative. Design feature would also include safety features such as built-in parapet walls around skylights to elevate them from the adjacent roof surface, guards around roof hatches, and equipment screens to ensure a safe zone for equipment maintenance. Roof perimeter parapet walls would also allow for safe maintenance of drains and the roof surface. A roof anchor point as needed for work at the perimeter.


Building features: Each building should have a custodial closet on each floor and it should be approximately centered in the main corridor. Custodial closets shall contain a floor mop sink, space for a rolling trash container, cart, and mop bucket along with at least 6 feet wide multi-tiered shelving for supplies. Every building is to have at least one gender-neutral restroom (three-story structures shall have at least one on the lowest and highest floors.

Sustainability features: Sustainable materials and features shall be used wherever practical and within the project budget. USGBC LEED (or equivalent rating system) should aim for a goal of Silver as a minimum where LEED certification is desired. Spaces should be designed for maximum flexibility and usage to ensure the square footage of the building is used efficiently and effectively.

Material selections for sustainability are a multilayer decision. Low VOC/odor materials are a good starting point. Material selection must include longevity, ease of care/maintenance, durability, acoustic and other considerations. Cost savings over the product/materials life cycle will help determine its value as part of the larger project/goals.

Collaborative features: Spaces shall be flexible to allow for standard forward-facing classes and group learning collaborative spaces. Reconfigurable table sizes and chairs will allow the room to be reconfigured easily. Standard collaborative layouts can include horseshoe-shaped, case-teaching, and in the round layouts. Tables with available power are ideal, but not required. Writing surfaces or digital displays on multiple walls allow for group interaction and small group projects/discussions. A starting point for design should be a “studio” environment that can start as the basis for further design development. Collaborative technology is the second required layer of design. Shared displays that are controlled by multiple sources (phones, tablets, computers) but ultimately controllable by the instructor.

Safety features: Visibility shall remain a main security feature. Perimeter plantings around the sites should reduce concealed areas and avoid overgrowth near entrances. Classrooms and offices shall have “entry” hardware lever sets that allow the room to be locked from the inside with a key. Double door hardware and doors with panic hardware (that is dogged-down) will require specific design considerations to facilitate building lock-downs. Campus security cameras will be installed with an access control system after construction. Preparations for both systems shall be made during the design process and included under the general contractor’s scope during construction.

Building notification systems shall include public address, fire, and carbon monoxide elements. Speakers located in all corridors, offices, classrooms, and meeting spaces shall be included and tied to the current campus system. The fire alarm system shall be based on the current code in affect and be tied to the current system monitored by the Public Safety dispatcher. A separate carbon monoxide detection and notification system is required at all locations of, adjacent to, and adjacent to the adjacent locations, of all fuel burning equipment or devices. All three systems are separate but integrated systems with independent notification. The fire alarm system shall use addressable devices wherever possible.

Electrical features: Lighting shall be LED-based where possible. Classroom, lecture hall and meeting space lights shall be dimmable or banked for flexibility for presentations. Locations for outlets and frequency shall be defined for various spaces along with circuit distribution. Standard and low voltage wiring support standards will need definition along with access requirements for updating and replacement. Wiring types and color shall be defined when they exceed industry standards. Arc flash hazard analysis/design considerations will be addressed during the design process for all new and major renovation projects.

HVAC/Plumbing features: The HVAC systems of a building shall be designed based on the functional and acoustic needs of the spaces. Preferred system types based on various space needs can be considered along with performance specifications based on the College’s experience. Fuel preferences should be addressed along with preferred fixture functions. Drinking fountain or bottle filling stations should be identified along with air and water filtration methods.

Construction specification features: The design standard should include specification sections required beyond the typical minimum. Substitution requirements and documentation should be discussed along with DMPC standards and quality control requirements. Temporary facilities and utilities should be standardized and desired allowance and construction change procedures. Special consideration shall be paid to closeout requirements and procedures.

Project/Design process: The process for feasibility/scope determination, schematic design, design development, construction documentation (50%, 90%, and 100%) reviews, bid, construction administration, and close-out need definition. Permit requirement determination for construction, environmental, site, sewer, and other factors need to be determined early in the process to create a functional schedule.
