Minor projects are projects and renovations under $4M. Minor projects are managed by the Facilities Services (FS) group within Facilities/Construction Management. FS also handles routine renewal projects such as HVAC systems, roofs, parking lots, and exterior maintenance. These projects are usually funded by College Local Funds or Capital Renewal Funding. The majority of the projects requests in this area are driven by the campus user and submitted through the departments work management system, or through issues related to the facilities that are self-identified by Facilities Services planned maintenance activities.
