501.01: Construction, Renovation, and Alteration

All construction, renovation, and alteration projects involving campus facilities are subject to approval by the ACCS Chancellor and, for contracts over $500,000, the ACCS Board of Trustees.

In the case of an emergency, the college President must declare in writing the details of the nature of the danger to public health, safety, or convenience which would result from delay of any contemplated work. The President’s written declaration shall be immediately forwarded to the Chancellor. Only matters that are determined to be legitimate emergencies will be approved by the Chancellor. If approved, written notice will be sent to the college President and the Division of Construction Management. The college may utilize the design professional already under contract to the college at the time of the emergency to request plans and begin work to address the emergency.

If the cost of the emergency work exceeds $500,000.00 the emergency project must be submitted to the Board of Trustees for approval as soon as practical.
