Board Elections for 2006-2007 – President, Donna Elliott announced that it is not too early to begin thinking of Board Elections for the next school year. She handed out a sheet of the job descriptions for the board positions. Anyone can nominate any classified staff person. If you or anyone you know is interested in running, please contact Donna or any current board member. Nominations must be in by 3/2/06. Elections will be held April 2006 so that announcement of next year’s officers can be made at the end-of-the-year event in May. Felix Perez and Julene Rhoan volunteered to be the Nominating Committee.

Bake Sale Report - Julene Rhoan reported that we made a grand total of $192.50. It was suggested that next time we schedule the sale for a Wednesday, instead of Monday.

Future Fundraising events – Julene suggested that we contact Lunardi’s or Mollie Stones to see if they would be willing to donate a turkey or a turkey dinner for a fundraising drawing. If possible we could do hold a drawing mid November, just before Thanksgiving. She will ask Char Wulbers if she would handle the tickets, $1/each or 6/$5.

Treasurer’s Report – Theresa Tentes reported that we currently have $2947.49 in our account.

Website Report – Felix Perez reported that there is currently no Classified Council website presence. The link from the Skyline page has been disabled. He will contact Chris Case who is the Skyline Webmaster.

CSEA Training - Linda Herda handed out a sheet with upcoming CSEA Training sessions/dates available to all CSEA members.

Committee Reports –

District Committee on Budget and Finance – Anyta Archer reported that the committee met on 10/4/05 and discussed the charge of the committee and plans to implement approval of the new Resource Allocation Model. The committee will target the 2006/07 academic year after taking it to the Districts Shared Governances, Board of Directors and other college councils. For clarity, Anyta will give a brief summary presentation to Classified Council later this year or earlier next year.

Donna also distributed a hand-out of an excerpt from 5/25/05 College Council Minutes concerning the EEOAC Report on Proposed Charge and Name.

Linda Allen will bring back our next meeting any changes proposed/discussed by the DSG concerning the mutual respect policy. It seems CSM Faculty has some concerns that need to be addressed.
