President Carolyn Grubbs Williams College Statement and Statistics Bronx Community College (BMCC) was established in 1957 in temporary quarters on Creston Avenue and 184th Street in the building that formerly housed the Bronx High School of Science. BCC was founded to meet the growing need for higher educational facilities in the borough. In 1974, the rapidly growing College moved to the former uptown New York University Campus, its present 55-acre site overlooking the Harlem River. Bronx Community College is an urban community college that serves students of diverse backgrounds, preparations, and aspirations by providing them with an education that is both broad in its scope and rigorous in its standards. The College's mission is to give its students the foundation and tools for success, whether they choose to continue their education or enter a profession immediately upon graduation, and to instill in them the values of informed and engaged citizenship and service to their communities. Dedicated to the principle that all persons have the right to develop their full potential, the College provides the opportunity for continuing educational development to every person without regard to race, ethnic origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, handicap, or level of income. Bronx Community College's vision is to lead the way in providing students with an education that enables them to move with equal facility into productive and rewarding careers or increasingly advanced higher education programs. BCC will graduate students who are prepared to live within, profit from, and contribute to a 21st century global environment marked by diversity, change, and expanded opportunities for learning and growth. The Bronx Community College campus houses a great treasure and major asset in the CUNY system: Gould Memorial Library and the Hall of Fame. The Gould Memorial Library was designated a National Historic Landmark, exterior and interior, in 1966. The Hall of Fame, the outdoor colonnade that encircles the Gould Memorial Library, is a national landmark institution founded in 1900 to honor prominent Americans who have had a significant impact on this nation's history.

However, because each appropriates funds independently of the other, a project's current funding received may not be matched equally 50-50. The following projects currently have appropriations in unequal amounts from the City and State: Campus-wide Utility Upgrades, Ph. I Campus-wide Roofing, Ph. I Campus-wide Backflow Prevention Total project cost: $29.27 M. Funding received: $5.937M State + $2.037M City. Funding requested: $8.7M State + $12.6M City. Total project cost: $11.79M.

Five Year Capital Request Project Descriptions (B) Campus-wide Utility Upgrades, Ph. I This project will make critical upgrades to the existing campus cooling, heating and electrical infrastructure. A central chiller plant will be constructed to replace the existing outdated centrifugal chillers in Meister and Colston Halls. A new distribution system will supply chilled water to these buildings as well as the future North Instructional Building. The College's High Temperature Hot Water system will be replaced by a medium temperature water system. Phase I of this project will install one boiler and one chiller and upgrade electric service for the entire campus. Utilities will be distributed to the north side of the campus, including to the North Instructional Building scheduled for completion in September 2011.

and City Council / Borough President Requests FY 2010 (Costs in thousands) (B) Campus-wide Utility Upgrades, Ph. II Phase II of this project will continue to develop the Central Plant by installing two additional chillers and the remainder of the boilers. Heating, cooling, and electric service will be distributed to the buildings at the center of the campus. $16,349 $16,349 April 2011 (B) Campus-wide Utility Upgrades, Ph. III Phase III of this project will complete the upgrade of utilities on the Bronx Community College campus by installing the last of the chillers and distributing the heating, cooling and electric service to the East and West sides of campus. $26,388 $26,388 May 2012 (B) Campus-wide Roofing, Ph. I This is Phase I of a project which will eventually replace the roofs on all of the College's buildings. Roofs typically need to be replaced every 15 to 20 years but because the College has not had a regular funding stream to do this work, virtually every roof on campus now needs to be replaced. Without regular roof replacement, buildings become subject to water infiltration and building deterioration. Havemeyer, Meister, and Philosophy Halls will be the first buildings addressed in this multi-year effort. $11,791 $966 $10,825 November 2013 (B) Campus-wide Backflow Prevention This project will install backflow prevention devices and water meters at the points where Bronx Community College connects with the NYC water system. The NYC Department of Environmental Protection requires the College to provide backflow prevention devices at each point at which the College connects to the NYC water main distribution network. $3,400 $1,700 $1,700 January 2011 Note: C.A. = Condition Assessment (B) = Major Bonded Project (R) = Minor Rehabilitation Project A = Acquisition, D = Design, C = Construction, E = Equipment

and City Council / Borough President Requests FY 2010 (Costs in thousands) (B) Various Health and Safety Upgrades This project will address numerous health and safety concerns on the Bronx Community College campus to ensure the well-being of the College community and the integrity of the campus facilities. There are building conditions throughout the Bronx Community College campus that present health and life-safety issues. Timely repairs will prevent possible accidents and/ or stem more significant deterioration. There are numerous building envelope and exterior repairs that cannot wait until the entire building is renovated. The cracks in New Hall's facade need to be repaired, the Nichols Hall balustrade needs to be reconstructed, and the steps leading to Begrisch Hall must be replaced. January 2014 (B) Campus-wide Fire Alarm Replacement This project will replace the outdated fire alarm systems in all of Bronx Community College's 30 buildings. The existing fire alarm systems are becoming increasingly difficult to maintain and replacement parts are hard to obtain. Eventually the fire alarm systems will not be able to be repaired and will cease to function. $7,216 $7,216 $27,448 $27,448 September 2012 (B) Window and Door Replacement This project will replace all of the windows in Colston and Polowczyk Halls. The existing windows are energy-inefficient and have deteriorated beyond repair. This project will install ADA-compliant doors in Community, Loew, and Polowczyk Halls. The existing entry doors have deteriorated beyond repair and do not operate properly. These buildings house offices and classrooms and are very heavily used. $11,890 $11,890 December 2012 (B) Perimeter Retaining Walls This project will repair the College's perimeter retaining walls; these aging stone walls require stabilization for safety. Recently a section of the retaining wall near Sedgwick Avenue and the Hall of Fame Terrace collapsed and the College received a violation from the Department of Buildings. $7,109 $7,109 December 2011 Note: C.A. = Condition Assessment (B) = Major Bonded Project (R) = Minor Rehabilitation Project A = Acquisition, D = Design, C = Construction, E = Equipment

and City Council / Borough President Requests FY 2010 (Costs in thousands) (B) Comprehensive Student Services Ctr This project will renovate approximately 30,000 GSF in Meister Hall and Sage Annex to create a Comprehensive Student Services Center. This space will become available when the North Instructional Building comes on line in September 2011. Enrollment services will be centralized in the basement of Meister Hall and a new Welcome Center will be constructed in the lobby. Space in Sage Annex will be renovated for storage and retrieval of student records. Currently, students must visit different offices dispersed throughout the campus in order to enroll, register, and seek financial aid. This project will consolidate these services and create a more convenient and efficient enrollment process. May 2015 $32,455 $32,455 City Council and Borough President (Reso A) FY 2010 Requests Mechanical Systems & Infrastructure Phase: C Bronx Community College inherited NYU's Bronx Campus in the mid-1970's. Since that time, little money has been invested in the campus's aging infrastructure. If the college is to continue to operate at its present location, critical upgrades must be made to the existing cooling, heating and electrical infrastructure. This funding is needed to match the State's appropriations for Phase I of the Campus-wide Utility project that will install one new boiler and chiller and upgrade electric service for the entire campus. FY 2010 Request $4,000 April 2010 NIB Equipment Phase: This project will purchase fixtures, furnishings, and equipment for Bronx Community College's new North Instructional Building (NIB). The North Instructional Building will provide state-of-the-art classrooms and a new library with an information commons. E FY 2010 Request $2,000 January 2011 Child Development Center Furniture Phase: Construction of the Child Development Center is scheduled to be completed by Summer 2009; however, the initial funding for the Center did not include funds for furniture and equipment. This project will purchase the necessary furniture, playground equipment, audio-visual equipment, interactive learning tools, and computers to fit out the Child Development Center. Fully furnished and equipped, the Center will provide a much needed service to the campus population by providing a safe and nurturing environment for the children of the college community. E FY 2010 Request $500 December 2009 College Reso A FY 2010 Request Total $6,500 Note: C.A. = Condition Assessment (B) = Major Bonded Project (R) = Minor Rehabilitation Project A = Acquisition, D = Design, C = Construction, E = Equipment
