BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION. The University of Idaho (UI) is developing a Center for Organic Studies at property near Sandpoint, Idaho previously gifted to the Regents for such use.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION. On November 6, 2012, Kirkland voters approved Proposition 2: City Parks Maintenance, Restoration and Enhancement Levy.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION. Regional transportation planning requires up-to-date and accurate geospatial datasets that document a range of landscape variables within urbanizing areas. These datasets are inputs to a range of transportation modeling efforts and are also required to develop long range transportation plans that the El Paso Metropolitan Planning Organizations (EPMPO) is required to submit on a regular basis. The project activities would focus on compilation of geospatial data for the New Mexico planning area of the EPMPO and this would include the areas of Sunland Park, Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Highway area (NM 136), Xxxxxxx NM, and areas east to Chaparral and into Xxxxx County. The product of this compilation effort would be a geodatabase that would provide support to the EPMPO and in turn to the New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT) for transportation planning, related environmental research, and overall documentation of these efforts. Specific efforts of the EPMPO and NMDOT that would benefit from this work would be Smart Growth and other initiatives that seek to advance comprehensive transportation planning with a reduced environmental footprint, greater energy efficiencies, and lower public costs.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION. The University of Idaho seeks approval from the Board of Regents for a five year contract for a new Head Football Coach. The University held a nationwide search using the search firm Collegiate Sports Solutions, and the University ultimately selected Xxxxx Xxx as the final selection. Coach Xxx is a 22-year veteran of collegiate coaching, and is currently the offensive coordinator at South Dakiota State University. Coach Xxx was the 2019 recipient of the Football Championship Subdivision Assistant Coach of the Year Award by the American Football Coaches Association. He helped build SDSU into a national FCS power, which includes a national championship appearance in Spring 2021, and another deep playoff run this fall. Coach Xxx has coached at the collegiate level since 1999, including a stint as offensive line coach at Idaho from 2004-2006. He spent an additional year in the Big Sky Conference as run game coordinator and offensive line coach at Montana State in 2015. A 1999 graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Coach Xxx played on the Badgers’ 1998 Big Ten championship team which went on to win the Rose Bowl. Pending the scheduling of a Board meeting to consider the five-year proposed contract with Coach Xxx, and given the University’s need to have Coach Xxx start prior to the end of the year, the University and Coach Xxx entered into a short term contract which allowed him to start as coach on December 20, 2021, paying him the base salary with no supplemental compensation. The short term contract expires January 31, 2022, and, should the Board approve the proposed five year contract, will be superseded by the full five-year contract.
