Policy Report and Consideration No. 1 (FIRST READING) Board Meeting 6-1-17

Request: Consideration and Review of the Recommended Revision of the Lone Star College (the “College”) Board Policy Manual Section III.D.2.10(h). Regarding Criteria for Awarding Contracts (FIRST READING)

Chancellor’s Recommendation:

That the Board of Trustees consider and review the revision of the College’s Board Policy Manual Section III.D.2.10(h). amending the College’s required criteria for awarding contracts for goods and services when federal grant dollars are involved.

Rationale: Federal regulations issued by the Office of Management and Budget prohibit Lone Star College from applying a local geographical preference when awarding most contracts for goods and services funded wholly or partially by federal grants. The proposed policy revision allows the College to adhere to these regulations by not applying a local geographical preference when awarding contracts for goods and services funded wholly or partially by federal grants.

Fiscal Impact: None.

Request: Consideration of Approval to Authorize the Chancellor or Designee to Enter into a Grant Contract on Behalf of Lone Star College (the “College”) with the University of Houston for the Operation of the College’s Small Business Development Center (“SBDC”)


That the Board of Trustees approve the Chancellor or designee to enter into a grant contract with the University of Houston, for a sum not exceeding $675,167 for the operation of the College’s SBDC; of which, up to $277,210 will be reimbursed by the University of Houston.

Rationale: The University of Houston has received a cooperative agreement from the U.S. Small Business Administration to create a center entitled “Texas Gulf Coast Small Business Development Center (“SBDC”) Network.” The purpose of the Texas Gulf Coast SBDC Network program is to provide high quality business and economic development assistance to prospective and current small businesses in order to promote growth, expansion, innovation, increased productivity and management improvement. The College would agree to deliver services and materials as specified in the proposal submitted on July 28, 2016.

This contract award was a result of the College’s application for funding submitted on June 3, 2016. According to College policy, the proposal was reviewed and approved by the College’s Office of the General Counsel, signed by the Chancellor, and submitted by the College’s Resource Development and Administration.

The total project budget is $675,957. Of this amount, the University of Houston may reimburse up to $277,210. The College is responsible for matching funds of $397,957. The matching funds of $397,957 will be provided through a direct cash match of $234,097 and with indirect costs of $163,860.

Grant related purchases will be made in accordance with procurement methods approved by state law, and allowed by board policy and the grant contract including, but not limited to, competitive bids and requests for qualifications.

Request: Consideration of Approval to Authorize the Chancellor or Designee to Negotiate and Execute a Contract on Behalf of Lone Star College (the “College”) to Purchase Science Lab Equipment for LSC-University Park Center for Science and Innovation


That the Board of Trustees authorize the Chancellor or designee to negotiate and execute a contract on behalf of the College with North Central Instruments, Inc., (“NCI”) 3700 Annapolis Lane, Suite 145, Plymouth, MN, 55447, for science lab equipment in a sum not exceeding $329,802. If negotiations cease for any reason with NCI, the College may proceed to negotiate with the next firm providing quotes.

Rationale: Microscopes are required laboratory equipment to meet LSC student learning outcomes and are necessary to support the curriculum in biology at the new LSC-University Park Center for Science and Innovation. The use of microscopes will allow students to learn essential biological techniques, which include compound and dissecting microscopy techniques, and examination of prepared slides of plant, animal and human specimens. In addition, the microscopes will facilitate the learning of microbiological techniques including bacterial morphology, staining and biochemical differentiation. These state-of-the-art microscopes are extremely user friendly and are in-line with those used at four-year institutions. They possess technology that allows for both photo and video capture and feature WiFi capability enhancing in-class student/instructor engagement. One notable feature unique to Leica is the AirLab, which is a free application for use with Mac and Android devices to capture images directly to the student’s mobile devices. The quantity requested provides flexibility with microscope assignments as LSC-University Park is doubling the instructional labs.

This purchase complies with Texas Education Code § 44.031(a)(4) which allows the use of inter-local contracts. The College will purchase from NCI, Inc. through the TXSmartBuy Purchasing Cooperative, contract #490MP. The College completed a market analysis to determine best value.

Fiscal Impact: $329,802 for these purchases are available from the General Obligation Bonds, Series 2015A.

Request: Consideration of Approval to Authorize the Chancellor or Designee to Negotiate and Execute an Agreement on Behalf of Lone Star College (the “College”) to Purchase Natural Gas for LSC-Kingwood, LSC-North Harris, and LSC-Montgomery


That the Board of Trustees authorize the Chancellor or designee to negotiate and execute an agreement on behalf of the College to purchase natural gas services from the Texas General Land Office (“GLO”), 1700 N. Congress Ave., P.O. Box 12873, Austin, TX 78711.

Rationale: The existing agreement with GLO for natural gas purchases expires 8/31/2017. The proposed new agreement will be for transportation and supply of natural gas to LSC-Kingwood, LSC-North Harris and LSC-Montgomery with an annual average usage of 10 MMBtu or more per day.

The natural gas market continues to be near a ten-year low due to the significant inventory of natural gas from U.S. shale production. The natural gas rate is an “indicative rate” with a volatility range. Bid rates must be accepted within the same day as received in order to execute a fixed/indexed rate interlocal cooperation contract. The GLO sells natural gas through the Public Customer Gas Program, whose net proceeds are deposited in the Permanent School Fund used to fund K-12 public education. It is therefore requested that the Chancellor or designee be authorized to execute the contract, once the price and term have been determined. The term of the agreement requires a minimum period of 48 months.

The estimated new commodity rate will provide a significant cost avoidance for natural gas services as compared to the standard offer rate from the local, regulated utility. Additionally, the GLO contract offers LSC an exclusive opportunity to forgo paying State Gross Receipts Tax (“GRT”) and other surcharges.

This purchase is in accordance with Texas Government Code Section 791.025 which allows a local government to agree with another local government or with the state or a state agency, including the Comptroller to purchase goods and services. A local government that purchases goods and services under this section satisfies the requirement of the local government to seek competitive bids for the purchase of goods and services.

Fiscal Impact: The commodity pricing rate for natural gas purchases averaged $0.487 per one hundred cubic feet (“CCF”) in calendar year 2016. As natural gas

Exhibit "H"

prices have stabilized over the last two years, the proposed contract rate would be approximately the same for the proposed contract extension with the GLO. It is estimated the College would see similar pricing at time of contract execution in June 2017. This pricing level is approximately $0.167 per CCF lower than the regulated tariff rate ($0.654 per CCF), representing a 26% cost avoidance of $31,598 annually. The annual spend for FY 2016 was approximately $106,000. Funds for this purchase will be included in the proposed FY 2018 and subsequent years operating budgets by campus.

Request: Consideration of Approval to Authorize the Chancellor or Designee to Negotiate and Execute a Contract on Behalf of Lone Star College (the “College”) to Purchase a Web Based Student Course Evaluation System


That the Board of Trustees authorize the Chancellor or designee to negotiate and execute a contract on behalf of the College with CollegeNET, Inc., 805 SW Broadway Suite 1600, Portland, Oregon 97205, to purchase a web based student course evaluation system in a sum not exceeding $130,000 over a maximum five-year period. The initial term of the contract will be for three years with an option to renew for two additional one-year periods. The Chancellor recommends that the firm with the highest evaluation score be awarded the contract. If negotiations cease for any reason with CollegeNET, the College may proceed to negotiate with the next firm in the order of selection ranking with a score of not less than 70 until a contract is executed.

Rationale: This award is for a hosted, web-based solution for student course evaluations to support all credit classes for the College. The system will allow students to securely provide electronic assessment of the courses taken providing immediate results following the assessment period. The tool includes features that insure the anonymity of the students and restricts access to results to only the appropriate groups or individuals. This tool is used by many colleges and universities. A student course evaluation process supports Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges accreditation efforts and is in compliance with Texas Education Code § 51.974.

In compliance with Texas Education Code § 44.031(a), a Request for Proposal (“RFP”) #491 was publicly advertised and four responses were received. The College evaluated proposals based on price; qualifications, experience, and service needs met; quality of services; references; past performance; the extent to which certified historically underutilized business (“HUB”), minority and/or veteran or women-owned businesses are utilized; long-term cost; and enhanced services and completeness as well as thoroughness of proposal.

Fiscal Impact: Funds of $25,000 for this purchase are included in the proposed FY 2018 LSC-College Services operating budget. Funds for subsequent fiscal years will be included in future proposed budgets. The existing contract will expire on December 31, 2017, and the annual spend is $23,800.

Request: Consideration of Approval to Authorize the Chancellor or Designee to Renew the Interlocal Agreement on Behalf of Lone Star College (the “College”) with Humble Independent School District for the Early College High School Initiative


That the Board of Trustees authorize the Chancellor or designee to renew the Interlocal Agreement on behalf of the College with Humble Independent School District and continue to operate an Early College High School (“ECHS”) Initiative. The term of the agreement will be one year from August 1, 2017 through July 31, 2018.

Rationale: ECHS initiatives are innovative high schools that allow students less likely to attend college an opportunity to earn a high school diploma and 60 college credit hours. ECHS initiatives provide dual credit at no cost to students, offer rigorous instruction and accelerated courses, provide academic and social support services to help students succeed, increase college readiness, and reduce barriers to college access.

The ECHS initiative focuses on students for whom the transition into post-secondary education is potentially problematic. Its priority is to serve students from low-income families, first-generation college students, English language learners, and minority students, all of whom are statistically underrepresented in post-secondary education.

Fiscal Impact: Direct costs of approximately $172,404 (does not include indirect costs) for this ECHS initiative will be included in the proposed FY 2018 operating budget for LSC-Kingwood. Enrollments in the ECHS initiative generate contact hours that are included in the basis for the State’s biennium funding allocation. Contact hours from Fall 2014 and Spring 2015 generated an estimated $207,207 in State funding in FY 2017.

Personnel Report and Consideration No. 2 (ACTION ITEM 14) Board Meeting 6-1-17

Request: Consideration and Approval to discontinue contributions to the health and life insurance premiums of current and former Trustees whose service began before August 31, 2003


That the Board of Trustees consider and approve discontinuing contributions to the health and life insurance premiums of current and former Trustees whose service began before August 31, 2003.

Rationale: The College currently covers health and life insurance premium payments for current and former Trustees whose service began before August 31, 2003. Board Policy Section 1.H.1.04. states such Trustees may be eligible for health and life insurance benefits as permitted by law. The Board has the option to have the College pay part or all of the contributions that the State of Texas would pay for similar coverage of other participants in the group benefits program. If the Board discontinues current practice, affected Trustees remain eligible to continue insurance coverage and can choose to pay any applicable premiums directly to the Employee Retirement System of Texas.

Fiscal Impact: Positive fiscal impact of $47,690 annually.
