Action Agenda A. Policies 1. Revision to Board Policy and Procedure 2.8 – Compensation/Reimbursement of Expenses, Board of Trustees and Board Policy 6.13 – Employee Travel
The Local Government Travel Expense Control Act which was recently approved by the State of Illinois requires the College to make modifications to two existing policies; Board Policy 2.8 – Compensation/Reimbursement of Expenses, Board of Trustees and Board Policy 6.13 Employee Travel. Dr. Warren explained the Act requires the College to have definitions and processes clearly spelled out in Board Policy. These two Policies are provided at this time for a first reading. Trustees are asked to review these Policies and contact Chairman Findley with any questions or suggested changes.

Review of Agenda Master Calendar Dr. Warren reminded everyone the December Board of Trustees meeting has been changed to Monday, December 12th at 3:30 p.m. in the Robert H. Stephens Room. B. President’s Report On November 12, 2016, Brandon Lewis, LLCC’s Student Trustees was honored as a Lincoln Academy of Illinois Student Laureate. Brandon is the first LLCC student to receive this honor and notably, was the only Illinois Community College student to receive the Illinois Student Laureate award. Governor Rauner presented Brandon with a Student Laureate Medallion and certificate of achievement. All award recipients received a $1,000 educational grant. The Lincoln Academy’s Abraham Lincoln Civic Engagement Awards recognizes excellence in curricular and extracurricular activities and presents the Student Laureate Award to seniors from each of the State’s four-year colleges and universities, but selects just one Illinois community college student. LLCC held its 21st Annual Veterans Day Ceremony on November 11. Board Secretary, Dennis Shackelford served as master of ceremonies and LLCC student Lance Corporal Bobby Herpel, U.S. Marine Corps, provided remarks and also played Taps. The Student Life Office has opened a food pantry to provide LLCC students with support in supplemental health and wellness. They are partnering with other area food banks in hopes to provide continued support for our students. Dr. Warren was a speaker at LLCC’s Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) Honor Society Induction Ceremony on October 27, 2016. LLCC’s PTK Chapter continues to grow its membership, offering students many academic, community service, and leadership opportunities throughout the year. The LLCC Chapter has once again achieved a 5-Star Chapter recognition.

AGENDA ITEM II.A
LLCC’s Loggers Volley Ball Team will be participating in the National Tournament for a second year in a row. The Loggers are seeded third in the NJCAA Division II Championship Tourney in Charleston, West Virginia, with play beginning on November 17. The Loggers placed second at the National Championship last year. LLCC-Litchfield was selected as the Litchfield Chamber Member of the Month, for November. This fall, the LLCC Bird Banding Station banded 2,268 birds of 77 species. They recently just banded the 15,000th bird since the fall 2012 opening of the Bird Banding Station. The fall banding season ends on November 18. LLCC’s Professional Development Day was held on November 1, providing a great opportunity for faculty and staff to share ideas and interact with colleagues across the campus. LLCC graduate and former Outstanding 2014 Commencement Speaker, Andrew Dewey, was the keynote speaker, sharing how LLCC helped him overcome great personal adversity and guided him in his educational path and career. Approximately 50 students on the main campus, and 20 students at LLCC-Taylorville participated in a presidential election watch party, sponsored by Political Science faculty. The 4th Annual Haunted Lab, sponsored by the LLCC Chemistry Club, drew approximately 300 children and adults on October 28, which was the same evening LLCC’s Student Life Office sponsored the College’s first ever Zombie Prom. Dr. Warren attended the November, Illinois Council of Community College President (ICCCP) and Illinois Community College Trustees Association (ICCTA) meetings. Both organizations are continuing to support legislation to allow community colleges to offer a Nursing Baccalaureate Degree (BSN) program. Senator Manar held a Senate Higher Education Committee informational hearing on the topic this morning. Another topic of discussion at the ICCCP and ICCTA meetings was the new State law requiring any newly elected, re-elected, or appointed, Community College Trustee to receive four hours of ICCB approved trustee training, during the 1st, 3rd, and 5th years of their term. ICCTA has begun work on developing this required training and plans to offer training at their annual June meeting. C. Report from Faculty Senate - None D. Report from Faculty Association - None E.

AGENDA ITEM II.A
G. Report from Facilities Services Council Mr. Kevin Cline, President of the Lincoln Land Facilities Services Union, addressed the Board, stating the Bargaining Unit members feel their relationship with the College Administration has begun to decline. He specifically referenced a situation in which the Bargaining Unit felt their member had been exploited and treated unfairly. A grievance was filed regarding this situation and has moved through the entire grievance process, with what they feel is an unsatisfactory outcome. Because this grievance is in regard to the application of Board Policy, Mr. Cline presented Trustee Shackelford, Secretary of the Board of Trustees, a written request for a hearing with the Board, regarding Grievance 2016-009, as outlined in Section 6.5 of the Lincoln Land Facilities Services Union Collective Bargaining Agreement. H. Chairman’s Report Chairman Findley attended the November Illinois Community College Association (ICCTA) meeting stating that ICCTA is working to determine what the newly enacted Trustee Training will involve, but noted it will include areas such as the Open Meetings Act, Freedom of Information Act, Financial Oversight, Fiduciary Responsibilities, etc. Although Trustees are required to complete the training, there is no penalty if they fail to comply with this requirement. Training may possibly be offered through workshops, online, or by CD. These are some of the many details yet to be determined. Mr. Findley had the opportunity to observe the Senate Higher Education Committee’s informational hearing on community colleges offering Nursing Baccalaureate Degrees (BSN) this morning, and felt the comments appeared to be encouraging for community colleges. Mr. Findley commented that Senator Manar plans to draft legislation this spring, that would allow community colleges, who choose to do so, the opportunity to offer a BSN Degree. The legislation will stipulate that community colleges cannot request additional funding to support their BSN program. Mr. Findley reported that due to the State’s financial situation ICCTA is having a difficult year. He noted that in addition to the College of DuPage leaving the organization, three other colleges have dropped their annual membership due to financial constraints. The City Colleges of Chicago have renewed their membership. I. Secretary’s Report - None J. Foundation Report - None K. Other Board Members’ Reports - None

Strategic Discussion A. Working on Learning Disabilities
Ms. Cara Swafford, Professor of English, provided a presentation on Creating Spaces for Students with Learning Disabilities in College Composition. Professor Swafford’s presentation was based on research she conducted during a recent sabbatical leave. She had the opportunity to delve into how learning disabilities affect students in college writing classes. Ms. Swafford’s sabbatical research provided her personal growth as a professor, and allowed her to develop effective strategies to assist not only students with learning disabilities, but all students. She explained the writing process is a very complex task, and for students with a disability it causes increased anxiety, not only for themselves, but for the instructor as well. Professor Swafford’s sabbatical allowed her to examine theory, and develop and practice course pedagogy. She has shared her research findings with her LLCC colleagues, conducted workshops, and also presented at a national conference, with another national conference presentation planned this spring. Professor Swafford hopes to do more to bring student learning disabilities to the forefront; possibly establishing a symposium, to draw more people into the discussion of how the College, faculty, and staff can accommodate students with learning disabilities.

SUBJECT: Revision to Board Policy and Procedure 2.8 - Compensation/Reimbursement of Expenses, Board of Trustees and Board Policy 6.13 - Employee Travel DATE:
December 12, 2016
The State of Illinois recently approved the Local Government Travel Expense Control Act. This Act requires that the College make modifications to two existing policies. Policy 2.8 - Compensation/Reimbursement of Expenses, Board of Trustees and Policy 6.13 - Employee Travel, govern the reimbursement of travel expenses incurred by trustees and employees of the college. Both policies have been revised to include a reference to the Act and to include elements required by the Act. In addition, Board Procedure 2.8 has been revised. These revisions were presented last month for a first reading and are submitted for Board approval this evening.

Policy Statement: Members of the Board shall serve without compensation but shall be reimbursed for their reasonable expenses incurred in connection with their service as members. Pursuant to the Act*, such expenses may be charged to a bank credit card owned by the College. Expenses of Board members shall be reimbursed in accordance with procedures established by the Board of Trustees. Trustees traveling to business-related conferences, seminars, and meetings or otherwise traveling on behalf of the college shall be reimbursed for expenses in accordance with established procedures. Reimbursement of Trustee travel expenses shall be done in accordance with the Local Government Travel Expense Control Act (Public Act 99-0604) as enacted or amended. This policy also applies to college President when traveling with Trustees. The maximum allowable reimbursement for meals and incidental expenses shall be the reasonable actual amount incurred. Recognizing that much of Trustees travel is to attend conferences, seminars, or other professional development and that the rates charged by host hotels for these events are often significantly higher than the GSA per diem lodging rate, the maximum allowable reimbursement for lodging will be 150% of the GSA per diem lodging rate plus applicable fees and taxes. The maximum allowable reimbursement for travel or transportation expenses will be the actual amount incurred for the most efficient travel option at the lowest cost. Reimbursement for business related mileage driven in a personal vehicle will be at the current rate as determined by the Internal Revenue Service. All requests for reimbursement of travel expenses shall be made using the current Travel Form or Mileage Log in the case of reimbursement for mileage only. Legal Citation: * 110 ILCS 805/3-7

In accordance with College policy, the following guidelines will apply: Credit Cards College credit cards will not be distributed to Trustees. General Guidelines All Board Members traveling on college business are expected to travel in as economical a manner as reasonably available to accommodate their personal and professional schedules. Travel advances will not be issued. The College will “direct pay” airline tickets, hotel expenses and registration fees when sufficient notice is provided. Travelers will request the governmental rate offered by the hotel when requesting lodging. College-issued identification will be provided upon request of a Board Member. Original receipts, when available, are required for reimbursement of college-related expenses (this requirement does not apply to meals if the Per Diem option is selected). The purchase of alcoholic beverages will not be reimbursed. Those traveling with students must also follow established procedures for field trips, athletic travel and/or student organization travel. Before Traveling Trustees will contact the President’s office to request the pre-travel estimated expenses section of the travel form be completed and submitted for approval. Out-of-state travel requires Board of Trustees approval in advance of the travel. Vehicular Travel Reimbursement of mileage for use of a personal vehicle in furtherance of College business will be at the most recently established IRS rate and will be reimbursable from the Board Member’s home. Parking and toll charges will be reimbursed with documentation. Parking tickets and other traffic violations will not be reimbursed.

Subject: Employee Travel Policy Number: 6.13 Officer Responsible: VP, Administrative Services Last Reviewed: 4/22/09 11/16/16 Last Revised: Effective Date: 2/23/00 3/1/17 Old Policy Number: 4.1.12
Policy Statement: Employees are encouraged to attend conferences, seminars, and meetings for the purposes of professional growth and/or providing required or desired representation on behalf of the College. Employees traveling to business-related conferences, seminars, and meetings or otherwise traveling on behalf of the college shall be reimbursed for expenses in accordance with established procedures, provided that the employee has prior approval of the appropriate supervisory personnel, including the budget manager and executive staff member; the expenses are for transportation, lodging, meals, meeting costs (e.g. registration fees), and other incidental expenses directly related to attendance at the conference, seminar or meeting; the mileage is for normal job-related responsibilities. Reimbursement of employees travel expenses shall be done in accordance with the Local Government Travel Expense Control Act (Public Act 99-0604) as enacted or amended. The maximum allowable reimbursement for meals and incidental expenses shall be determined by using the current U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) Per Diem Rates. Recognizing that much of employees travel is to attend conferences, seminars, or other professional development and that the rates charged by host hotels for these events are often significantly higher than the GSA per diem lodging rate, the maximum allowable reimbursement for lodging will be 150% of the GSA per diem lodging rate plus applicable fees and taxes. The maximum allowable reimbursement for travel or transportation expenses will be the actual amount incurred for the most efficient travel option at the lowest cost. Reimbursement for business related mileage driven in a personal vehicle will be at the current rate as determined by the Internal Revenue Service. All requests for reimbursement of travel expenses shall be made using the current Travel Form or Mileage Log in the case of reimbursement for mileage only. Reimbursement of travel expenses which exceed the maximums defined above may be made; however, such reimbursement request will require approval by the President.

Charlotte J. Warren President
SUBJECT:
Establishment of 2016 Tax Levy
DATE:
December 12, 2016
As you may recall, we begin the budget process in December by establishing the tax levy for the following year. The levy must be completed and filed by the fourth Tuesday in December. Before you this evening, is the resolution to adopt the local property tax levy for 2016. Accounting standards implemented under GASB 35 will cause this levy to be recognized for reporting purposes equally between FY 2017 and FY 2018. The law provides that the levy include the dollar amount requested rather than the tax rate desired. Consequently, the tax levy in conjunction with the district’s equalized assessed valuation (EAV) will determine the tax rate. The Education Fund rate of 27¢ per $100 of EAV and the Operation and Maintenance Fund rate of 7¢ per $100 of EAV will however, remain the same as those extended by County Clerks in the last fiscal year. The proposed levy before you allows for EAV growth of up to 3.5% over CY 15 EAV. The State of Illinois “Truth In Taxation” statute requires taxing bodies to publish a “Public Notice of Proposed Tax Increase” if the “aggregate levy” exceeds the prior year extension by 105%, excluding election and debt costs. The resolution regarding estimated amounts necessary to be levied in 2016, exclusive of debt retirement, includes an “aggregate levy” of 104.12% in excess of the estimated prior year’s extension. LLCC’s 2015 extension, exclusive of debt service was $26,460,685. The levy recommended to you tonight, exclusive of debt service, is $27,550,270, an increase of 4.12% over the previous year’s extension. The total levy for debt service includes $3,878,900 for the retirement of principle and interest for the General Obligation Bond Series 2008A and General Obligation Bonds, Series 2016A, which represents a .64% decrease over the previous year’s final extension. The total estimated 2016 levy of $31,429,170 including debt service represents a 3.5% increase over the 2015 extension of $30,364,441. McDonald/Longhta/Patarozzi
37
AGENDA ITEM III.D.2
I have attached (1) the formal resolution necessary to establish the 2016 tax levy, (2) a copy of the certificate of tax levy to be filed with each county clerk in the district, (3) the truth in taxation certificate of compliance. The district’s aggregate levy did not exceed a 5% increase over the prior year’s extension. Therefore, a truth in taxation notice and hearing will not be required for the 2016 tax levy. I’ll be happy to provide clarification or any additional information.
MOTION:
Move to approve the establishment of a 2016 tax levy of $16,912,443 for educational purposes; $4,384,708 for operations and maintenance purposes; $4,265,000 for liability, protection and settlement purposes; $505,000 for social security and Medicare insurance purposes; $68,000 for audit purposes; $1,415,119 for protection, health and safety purposes; and $3,878,900 for Bond and Interest purposes; for a total of $31,429,170.
