2. Resolution of City University Construction Fund Authorizing a Purchase Order for Services and Equipment for the Design and Installation of Security Cameras at Queens College (No. 2267).
After reading the Resolution, Acting Chairman Berry called upon Executive Director Judith Bergtraum for an explanation of the item. Ms. Bergtraum reported that the resolution asks for an increased amount, above that authorized by the original resolution No. 2258, brought to the CUCF Trustees on November 1, 2017. The original amount was for $400,000; this amendment will allow for an additional $400,000 for the design and installation of security cameras and related work.
Questions from the Trustees included why the additional amount was necessary. Ms. Bertraum explained that this amended resolution is necessary because the original bid did not have a sophisticated enough system to handle the surveillance and did not include the number of cameras needed for such a large campus. Also, when the project was reviewed with the school, it was discovered there were materials and equipment needed that were not covered by the original estimate, including the number of cameras, 21 of which are equipped for providing outdoor images in all kinds of weather and lighting conditions. The additional equipment will provide video surveillance and technology sensitive enough to read license plates.
It was asked how this need to amend a prior resolution could be avoided in the future. Ms. Bergtraum stated that the original project scope was provided by the school and was insufficient for their needs. She said that the approval of the original estimate was given in order to usher the project along in a timely fashion, but that growth in the project scope made the increase necessary. In future, she explained, she and her team will be more vigilant in making sure the initial scope and estimates are complete.
Mr. Berry asked if there were any further comments or questions. There being none, Mr. Berry called for a motion to approve. On motion duly made and seconded, the resolution was approved.
REPORTS
Acting Chairman’s Report
Acting Chairman Berry let the attendees know the next CUCF meeting will be held on Wednesday, June 27 at 9:30 a.m.
Executive Director’s Report
Mr. Berry called upon Executive Director Judy Bergtraum for her report.
Ms. Bergtraum said that she plans to report on all the CUNY colleges’ projects at upcoming CUCF Board meetings, to inform the Trustees and attendees of the progress of these ongoing very important efforts.
City University Construction Fund – Minutes of April 25, 2018 Meeting of the Fund, Page 3
Today, she stated, she would give an update of the capital projects being addressed at Brooklyn College. There are $42 million worth of projects at Brooklyn College; about $100 million worth of renovation is needed, most of which will be small projects. This is typical of a senior college – it will need significant funding for renovation of older buildings.
She then presented images and information about the status of various construction projects at Brooklyn College, including those at Ingersol Hall, Boylan Hall, Whitehead Hall and Whitman Hall.
Ingersol was part of the original Brooklyn College campus, built in 1939 as a WPA project. The building had an addition constructed in 1961. Renovations to the HVAC system for the laboratories are taking place, approximately 10 different construction projects underway, to bring the labs up to code. It is expected to be completed next year and is going very well, considering how disruptive it is. There are also fire alarm upgrades taking place. At Whitman Hall, exterior conditions have been addressed, particularly entrance ways to performance spaces like the ADA ramp at the entrance to the theater, which is the second-largest theater in Brooklyn; parapets, plazas and roofs. Also, interior work is being done in the black box theater. Boylan Hall is getting a renovated lecture hall, which will be ready in January, and new Ansul System, which is a kitchen monitoring system. Plans are underway for window replacement. Ingersol and Boylan were the original classroom buildings – Ingersol for the sciences, Boylan for administration, English, and other typical curriculum. Whitehead Hall will receive new windows, and a plaza underneath that needs repaving and regrading. And as always, working on a campus while classes are in session is a major disruption.
Mr. Lemieux reported that there are an additional 13 projects in design, waiting to go into construction.
In reply to a question from Acting Chairman Berry about the status of the Performing Arts Center, Mr. Lemieux explained that construction is finished, and they are currently working with the fire department to receive a re-inspection, at which point the DOB will be able to issue a TCO. They expect a grand opening this summer.
The $132 million replacement of Roosevelt Hall is on hold, Ms. Bergtraum stated. The building is on hold now because additional funding is needed. The project has advanced through design development. No construction documents will be issued until the funding is in place. There is $342 million in projects in place at Brooklyn College, $240 million of that is in the new buildings, and $100 million is in renovations; $42 million went to the HVAC project in Ingersol Hall.
Acting Chairman Berry thanked Ms. Bergtraum for her report and presentation. He then called upon Michael Stabulas of the Dormitory Authority.
Report of the Dormitory Authority
Mr. Stabulas said he will bring his reports to the next meeting, with some photographs to illustrate the particulars.

Acting Chairman Berry thanked Mr. Stabulas for his report, and thanked everyone for attending the meeting.
On motion duly made and seconded, the meeting of the Board of Trustees was adjourned at 10:04 a.m.

Exhibit 2
CITY UNIVERSITY CONSTRUCTION FUND GUIDELINES FOR PROCUREMENT CONTRACTS
(as amended through June 23, 2016)
Section A. Introduction
These Guidelines set forth the operative policy and instructions of the City University Construction Fund (the "Fund") regarding the use, award, monitoring, and reporting of Procurement Contracts in the actual or estimated amount of $5,000 or more.
These Guidelines are intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 2879 of the New York State Public Authorities Law and to provide an internal and administrative policy for the Fund's trustees, officers and employees. These Guidelines do not provide third parties with any rights or remedies.
Section B. Definitions
1. “Construction Management/Build (CM/Build) Contract” means a Procurement Contract pursuant to which the Fund hires a construction management firm to manage the overall construction project and to bid and hold each underlying contract for materials, labor and services related to the construction of the project. The Fund may employ a CM/Build Contract only when the estimated cost of construction is $3 million or more.
2. “Executive Director” means the Executive Director of the CUNY Construction Fund.
3. “Fund” means the CUNY Construction Fund acting through its Board of Trustees or pursuant to a delegation of powers or duties to one or more of its trustees, officers, agents or employees as may be permitted by Section 6274 of the New York State Education Law.
4. “Job Order Contract” (JOC) means a Procurement Contract resulting from a competitive bid process for an indefinite quantity of construction materials and services, which are specified in a Fund-approved catalog by type and unit price, for the Fund to use on specified projects to repair, maintain and upgrade CUNY facilities; the lowest responsible bidder shall bid the lowest ‘adjustment factor’ by which the Fund will multiply the fixed unit prices established by the catalog; the contract amount shall be the product of the ‘adjustment factor’ times the catalog prices for the materials and services that the Fund identifies for use on all of each individual project covered by the contract documents.
5. "Minority Business Enterprise" and a “Women-Owned Business Enterprise” shall have the meanings set forth in Section 2879 of the Public Authorities Law of the State of New York and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
6. Procurement Contract" means any written agreement for the acquisition of goods, services (including but not limited to professional services) or interests in real property of any kind or for construction, or any combination of these. The term does not include any agreement for employment in the civil services or by the Research Foundation of the City
1
University of New York. “Procurement Contractors” means any counter-party to a Procurement Contract with the Fund.
Section C. Selection of Procurement Contractors and Award and Board Review of Procurement Contracts
1. Selection Policy
Consistent with these Guidelines, the Fund shall select Procurement Contractors in a manner that (a) is fair and efficient, (b) seeks high quality goods, services, and/or construction at reasonable prices, and (c) satisfies state law in providing an opportunity for Minority Business Enterprises and Women-Owned Enterprises to compete for Procurement Contracts so as to facilitate the awarding of a fair share of such contracts to such enterprises.
2. Selection Mechanisms
The Fund shall use the following mechanisms to select Procurement Contractors for specified goods, services, interests in real estate and/or construction:
(a) Competitive Bids. The Fund may solicit fixed-price bids and may award the Procurement Contract to a responsible bidder primarily on the basis of the lowest price.
(b) Request for Proposals. The Fund may solicit specific proposals and award the Procurement Contract on the basis of an evaluation of the characteristics, quality and cost of such proposals, as set forth in the form of solicitation, including, without limitation, proffered security where security is requested or appropriate.
(c) Negotiated Procurement. The Fund may negotiate the terms of a Procurement Contract under the circumstances and subject to the conditions set forth below. Negotiations may be preceded by preliminary discussions to explore the feasibility of the procurement. A Negotiated Procurement may be used in combination with a Request for Proposals.
(i) In the case of a Procurement Contract for goods, services and/or construction, the Fund may negotiate with at least three vendors (or, in compelling circumstances, with fewer vendors) and award a Procurement Contract on terms that serve the best interests of the Fund where it is not practical and/or advantageous to make an award by Competitive Bids or Request for Proposals because (A) the constraints of a time-sensitive require a prompt selection and award, such the need to comply with a court order, to secure funding or avoid the loss of funding or to cure the default or unavailability of an existing contractor; (B) there is a limited number of vendors available and able to perform the work; (C) an existing contract needs to be extended beyond the contractually stipulated term and extensions; and (D) there is a compelling need to use an existing contractor to perform additional work or a later phase of a project.
(ii) In the case of a contract for the acquisition of an interest in or the
2
development of real property, the Fund may negotiate with one or more vendors and award a Procurement Contract in the best interests of the Fund.
(d) Single Source. When the Executive Director determines that there is only a single responsible source for any goods, services, interests in real estate and/or construction required by the Fund, the Fund may award a Procurement Contract without competitive procedures. A record setting forth the circumstances under which any such contract was let shall be provided in the annual report of the Fund prepared for the year in which the contract is let.
(e) Emergency. In the event of an emergency involving danger to life or property or other unforeseen occurrences requiring immediate action that cannot await the completion of other procurement mechanisms, the Executive Director may award a Procurement Contract without competitive procedures. For any such Procurement Contract involving an actual or estimated expense of $10,000 or more, the Executive Director shall, prior to executing the contract, notify four Trustees of the Fund of the nature and circumstances of the emergency and obtain their approval as to the aware. The Executive Director shall present a report of the award of such an emergency contract as an information item at the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Board of Trustees. A record setting forth the circumstances under which any such emergency contract was awarded shall be provided in the annual report of the Fund prepared for the year in which the contract is awarded.
(f) Contracts Procured by Government Entities. The Fund may award a Procurement Contract through existing contracts awarded by government entities, i.e., the State of New York, including any authority or public benefit corporation of the State of New York , the City of New York, including the Department of Education, or the Federal Government, provided that the Procurement Contract contains material terms, including price, that are substantially the same as or more favorable than the material terms of the contract with the government entity.
(g) Procurement Cards (P-Cards). The Executive Director shall be permitted to utilize Procurement Cards, a flexible, convenient and efficient means of processing payments for one-time and recurring monthly purchases, for payment of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the performance of the duties of that office, such as subscriptions, parking lot fees, E-Z Pass tolls and telecommunication charges.
(h) Discretionary Purchasing. In accordance with Section 2879 of the New York State Public Authorities Law, the Fund may use its discretion in the selection of vendors to compete for Procurement Contracts for goods, services, including architectural services and engineering services, and/or construction, as follows:
i. Eligibility to compete for such Procurement Contracts may be limited by the Fund to those vendors Certified as Minority-Owned Business Enterprises or Women-Owned Business Enterprises by Empire State Development’s Division of Minority and Women’s Business Development or Certified as Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Businesses by the New
3
York State Office of General Services Division of Service-Disabled Veterans’ Business Development. This is to provide an opportunity for such entities to compete for Procurement Contracts so as to facilitate the awarding by the Fund of a fair share of such Procurement Contracts to such entities, consistent with State law and these Guidelines.
ii. The total value of all such Procurement Contract awards by the Fund to a particular vendor cannot exceed $200,000.
iii. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, all other provisions of these Guidelines remain in effect.
(i) Other Mechanisms Approved by the Fund's Board. The Fund may use any other procurement mechanism the Board of Trustees shall deem appropriate.
3. Advertisement Requirements for Competitive Selection Mechanisms
The solicitation of bids, proposals or submissions for a Procurement Contract shall be made by the Fund in a manner determined by the Executive Director to be the most cost-effective for providing reasonable competition for the Fund's procurement contracts. This may include advertisement in appropriate newspapers or trade journals, direct mailings and such other outreach mechanisms as are consistent with the policy of these Guidelines with respect to firms considered by the Executive Director to be qualified, including, without limitation, Minority Business Enterprises and Women-Owned Business Enterprises.
(a) Procurement Opportunities Newsletter. The Executive Director may solicit bids or proposals by placing a listing in the New York State Contract Reporter, or any other official listing of bidding opportunities established under Article 4-C of the Economic Development Law or comparable statutes. Any such listing shall be made in conformity with the rules and requirements established by the responsible agency, such as New York State Department of Economic Development, Division for Small Business, that are in effect at the time the listing is to be made.
(b) General Contents of Solicitations. Except as otherwise required (for example, by the applicable rules of the Department of Economic Development referred to in item (a) above), each solicitation by the Fund shall include: (i) the name of the Fund, (ii) a description of the goods, services, and/or construction sought, the location where goods are to be delivered or services and/or construction are to be provided and the contract term, (iii) the address where bids or proposals are to be submitted, (iv) the date when such bids or proposals are due, (v) a description of any eligibility requirement or preference and (vi) any other information that the Executive Director deems useful.

(ii) At the request of the Fund, the contractor shall request each employment agency, labor union, or authorized representative of workers with which it has a collective bargaining or other agreement or understanding and which is involved in the performance of the contract with the authority to furnish a written statement that such employment agency, labor union or representative shall not discriminate because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability or marital status and that such union or representative will cooperate in the implementation of the contractor's obligations hereunder;
(iii) The contractor will state, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor in the performance of the contract with the Fund, that will qualified applicants will be afforded equal employment opportunity without discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability or marital status; and
(iv) The contractor will include the provisions of subdivisions (i) through (iii) of this section in every subcontract or purchase order in such a manner that such provisions will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor as to its work in connection with the contract with the Fund.
(d) Procurement Contracts for $50,000 or More. If the actual or estimated cost of a Procurement Contract is fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) or more, any solicitation shall be published once in the New York State Contract Reporter, published by Empire State Development and at least once in a newspaper of general circulation.
(e) Timing. At least fifteen business days shall elapse between the first solicitation of bids, proposals or submissions or the first publication of any advertisement for bids, proposals or submissions and the due date for the submission of bids, proposals or submissions.

Except as otherwise provided in these Guidelines, the Executive Director shall solicit bids, proposals or submissions from at least three (3) contractors that are qualified to provide the goods, services, interests in real estate and/or construction sought by the Fund and have
5
agreed to consent to the nondiscrimination and compliance provisions required by Section E of these Guidelines. Subject to subsections (b) and (c) hereof, the Fund shall award the Procurement Contract on the basis of the most favorable combination of criteria applicable respectively to goods, services, interests in real estate or construction, such as quality, ability to deliver or perform in a timely manner, price or fee structure, location, technical qualifications, financial stability, past performance, staff availability and experience.
(b) Contracts for $10,000 or More. No Procurement Contract involving an actual or estimated expense of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) or more shall be awarded by the Fund unless, prior to execution of the contract by the Fund, no fewer than four (4) trustees of the Fund approve the contract.

3. The contractor will state, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor in the performance of the contract with the Fund, that all qualified applicants will be afforded equal employment opportunity without discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability or marital status;

3. Prompt Payment Policy - It shall be the policy of the CUCF to process contract payments efficiently and expeditiously so as to assure payment in a timely manner to firms and organizations which do business with the CUCF and to avoid, to the greatest extent practicable, the payment of interest in cases where prompt payment does not occur as provided herein.

Proper Invoices submitted to the vendor payment unit will be transmitted to the CUCF project manager assigned to the project for approval. Following the return of the approved proper invoice to the vendor payment unit, a payment will be processed. Payment will be made no later than 30 days, except under the circumstances specified in subdivision (d) of this section, after receipt of such proper invoice at the designated payment office.
(b) For all other invoices for contract payments not covered by paragraph (a), the Finance Office of the CUCF in New York, New York is the Designated Payment Office. Proper Invoices submitted by the tenth of the month will be paid by the last day of the month, but in any event payment will be made no later than 30 days after receipt of such Proper Invoice.
(c) If a proper invoice is not paid within the periods described in (a) or (b) above, such payment will be subject to interest at the overpayment rate set by the N.Y.C. Comptroller, as agent for CUCF, and the N.Y.C. Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
(d) In accordance with subparagraph (v) of paragraph (A) of subdivision 3 of Section 2880 of the Public Authorities Law, when the following facts and circumstances exist, the CUCF may, to the extent necessary, extend the payment date of a proper invoice to 45
12
days after receipt. The facts and circumstances may include, but shall not be limited to: (1) a contract for which a prior overpayment has been made; (2) a contract which is subject to a mechanics’ lien; (3) a contract which is subject to a notice of prevailing wage withholding; (4) when the CUCF has been notified that an entity contracting with the CUCF or the
principals thereof are the subject of criminal investigation or indictment relating to the business activities of the entity;

(6) when the CUCF must rely on tests by a third party reported directly to the CUCF as a prerequisite for payment.
(7) the goods and services were not rendered in the manner detailed in the contract requirements.
8. Sources of Funds Available for Payment of Interest - The CUCF holds or has control of moneys which represent the proceeds of the issuance of its obligations or are on deposit in operating funds of the CUCF derived primarily from its fees and charges, from which it may pay interest on Proper Invoices with respect to which Prompt Payment is not made.
9. Extension of Prompt Payment Date - The date by which a contract payment may be made without the payment of interest may be extended when any of the following facts or conditions exists: (a) in accordance with specific statutory or contractual provision, payment must be
preceded by an inspection period, the receipt of a signed receiving report in the case of the purchase of goods for an entity other than the CUCF itself, or by an audit to determine the resources applied or used by a contractor in fulfilling the terms of the contract;
(b) the necessary state government appropriation required to authorize payment has yet to be enacted;
(c) a Proper Invoice must be examined by the federal government or other governmental entities prior to payment; and,
(d) such date by which contract payment must be made is modified in accordance with section 11 below.
10. Interest Eligibility and Computation - In order for the CUCF not to be liable for the payment of interest, contract payment must be made within the periods described in section 7 after the receipt of an invoice for the amount of the contract payment due; except when the contract payment is of the type where the facts and conditions are as defined pursuant to section 9 above. Any time taken to satisfy or rectify any of the facts or conditions described in section 9 above shall extend the date by which contract payment must be made in order for the CUCF not to become liable for interest payments by an equal period of time. The CUCF shall not be liable for the payment of interest when such interest is less than ten dollars. Notification of Defects - The CUCF shall have 15 calendar days after receipt of an invoice by the Designated Payment Office to notify the contractor of (a) defects in the delivered goods, property, or services, (b) defects in the invoice, or (c) suspected improprieties of any kind; and the existence of such defects or improprieties shall prevent the commencement of the time
13
period specified in section 7 of this Statement. When the CUCF fails to notify a contractor of such defects or suspected improprieties within 15 calendar days of receiving the invoice, the number of days allowed for payment of the corrected proper invoice will be reduced by the number of days between the fifteenth day and the day that notification was transmitted to the contractor. If the CUCF, in such situations, fails to provide reasonable grounds for its contention that a defect or impropriety exists, the date by which contract payment must be made in order for the CUCF not to become liable for interest payments shall be calculated from the date of receipt of an invoice.
11. Predetermined Interval Payments - A Proper Invoice submitted by the contractor shall be required to initiate any payment, except where the contract provides that the contractor will be paid at predetermined intervals without having to submit an invoice for each such scheduled payment and, for the purposes of determining eligibility for payment of interest and subject to the exception and time-to-rectify provisions of sections 9 and 10 above, the date by which contract payment must be made in order for the CUCF not to become liable for interest payments shall be the payment due date specified in accordance with the contract.
12. Inapplicability of Statement - The provisions of this Statement shall not apply to payments due and owing by the CUCF:
(a) under the eminent domain procedure law; (b) as interest allowed on judgments rendered by a court pursuant to any provision of law
other than Section 2880 of the Public Authorities Law; (c) to the federal government; to any state agency or its instrumentalities; to any duly
constituted unit of local government including, but not limited to, counties, cities, towns, villages, school districts, special districts, or any of their related instrumentalists; to any other public CUCF or public benefit corporation; or to its employees when acting in, or incidental to, their public employment capacity;
(d) in a situation where the CUCF exercises a Set-off against all or part of the paymentdue the contractor; or,

Item 4 Resolution 2271 June 27, 2018
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY UNIVERSITY CONSTRUCTION FUND AUTHORIZING THE ARCHITECT OF RECORD FOR CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION SERVICES FOR THE STUDENT UNION AT THOMAS HUNTER HALL,
HUNTER COLLEGE
RESOLVED: That the Board of Trustees of The City University Construction Fund (“the Fund”) authorize the Executive Director to execute a Construction Administration Services contract with the firm of Calvert Wright Architecture, for construction administration services, as required for the Thomas Hunter Hall 2nd Floor Student Union project at Hunter College, CUNY Project No. CITYW-CUCF-04-14-07. Calvert Wright Architecture was retained for design services by Hunter College. The contract cost shall be chargeable to the private funds from the Hunter Foundation which have been transferred to the Fund for an amount not to exceed $250,000 for construction administration services. The contract shall be subject to approval as to form by the Fund’s General Counsel.
EXPLANATION: The Fund on behalf of the City University of New York intends to build out 11,000 sf of the 2nd Floor Student Union for Thomas Hunter Hall. The floor is occupied by a variety of student organizations in Student Publications, Accessibility Office and Student Government that provide valuable and essential services to Hunter College students. The work includes general construction for the student government offices, game room, conference rooms, ADA lift, new finishes and structural work related to lowering of the elevator.
The procurement for the construction administration services contract is being awarded as a single source. As the Architect of Record, Calvert Wright Architecture has the most knowledge of the project, and needs to be retained for the construction administration services portion of the project. Selecting another firm to take over the project at this stage will delay the construction
