TO: Council members
FROM: Dave Romero, Mayor
SUBJECT: PAC Commission meeting on November 13, 2003
Highlights of the recent PAC Commission meeting included the following updates from several
subcommittees:
• Work to lower a ticket window for ADA compliance will occur in the summer, along with a
remodel of the interior of the ticket office.
• New roll up doors for the concession area will also be installed in the summer.
• The building chillers have been relocated, freeing up the former chiller room for much needed
storage space in the future.
• Signage has been installed on the side of the building identifying the Christopher Cohan Center
and Phillips Hall.
• The classroom inside the building has had presentation technology added to make it a "smart
room".
• The Art Advisory Committee is considering a proposal for a photography exhibit by Professor
Lakeman to be placed in the PAC.
In the area of fiscal concerns, the Commission approved an upgrade to ticketing software at a cost not
to exceed $20,329 and directed the Finance Committee to develop a policy setting a 10% cap for the
operating reserve balance, based on a recommendation from Bill Statler. The Commission also asked
the Finance Committee to develop a policy on the timing of payments of partners' shares of the
operating subsidy. Both of these policies will return to the Commission for final approval at a future
meeting.
The current slate of officers was re-elected for 2004: Wendy George, Chair; John Dunn, Vice-chair;
Larry Kelley, Secretary; Frank Mumford, Treasurer.
The Acoustics Improvements Ad Hoc Committee reported that there were still a number of unresolved
issues relating to the first submittal of the schematic design for the acoustic projects currently
scheduled for construction in the summer of 2005. These projects include the canopy (formerly called
the "clouds"), hanging velours, placement of felt or other sound absorbing materials on some walls and
new speaker clusters. Once the Committee is comfortable with the schematic design, it will come to
the Commis-siioon for approval, either in 1 to December or early January.
