Construction Updates

Relocation Schedule

March 2010

  • College Center Remodel
    Walls are up and in some cases the first coat of paint has been applied.  The dining addition is complete and kitchen equipment is being installed. The exterior structure (colonnade) is up, along with retaining walls as site work continues. The new parking lot is ready for pavement however, it will be a month or so before the asphalt plant opens and can provide asphalt to the project.  The project is scheduled for completion at the end of May and the Relocation Task Force will convene soon  to start the process of developing the re-occupancy schedule. The furniture package is being finalized.

  • College Center Remodel Phase 2 – Horizon Hall Renovation
    The project is in the design development stage.  The renovation will consist of eight new shared classrooms, group study rooms, student and faculty break areas, storage, space for future TRIO needs along with a number of faculty/staff/adjunct offices. The scope of work includes new mechanical, electrical, window and roof systems.  It is anticipated that the renovation will begin in late May 2010 and be complete by the end of May 2011.

  • Public Service Institute (T&I)
    Minor remodeling has occurred in this building to accommodate Fire Science and temporary locations for those vacating Horizon while the renovation occurs.  Major construction related to this building is on hold per the Board of Trustees.

  • Signage Master Plan – Phase 1
    Progress is being made to develop an exterior signage package for the buildings on the Greeley campus. It is anticipated that the exterior signs will be installed by the beginning of the fall 2010 semester.  The goal ( as funding is available) is to provide a monument type sign at each of the campuses buildings and provide a directional marquee at each entrance to the campus.

  • Cat Building Relocation Project
    A Relocation Task Force has been assembled to develop a moving schedule for the contents at the Ft. Lupton CAT building.  The plan is to relocate items from this building to the Automotive and Technology Center and Hansen building at the conclusion of the spring 2010 semester.

  • Key Card (Smart Card) Access System
    Buildings on the Greeley campus are being retro fitted with an electronic access system which will use a Smart Card for after hour access when the buildings are secure.  After hour access is defined as 10:00 p.m. through 6:00 a.m. Mondays through Friday, weekends and holidays.  A Smart Card reader will be located at the main entrance of each building.  The Smart Card will be a combination of full-time employee ID badge and a key card. Swiping of the Smart Card will not only provide access to the building but will unarm the security system.  Stay tuned for information about Smart Card check out procedures and training.

    The Loveland and Downtown campuses already have key card access systems.
