1999 Minnesota Statutes

     135A.06 System plans. 

    Subdivision 1.    Planning reports.  It is the intention 
 of the legislature that the planning efforts of the public 
 post-secondary education systems be summarized and reported to 
 the legislature.  It is the further intention that the system 
 missions be differentiated from one another to best serve the 
 needs of the citizens of Minnesota.  To accomplish these goals, 
 the University of Minnesota board of regents and the board of 
 trustees of the Minnesota state colleges and universities shall 
 each submit to the governor and the legislature on December 1 of 
 each even-numbered year a planning report for its system.  The 
 report shall contain the mission of the system and short- and 
 long-range plans for programs, staff, and facilities.  The 
 assumptions used in developing the plans shall be included.

*   NOTE:  Subdivision 4 was also amended by Laws 1994, chapter 
*643, section 66, to read as follows: 

*   "Subd. 4.    Capital requests.  A capital budget request 
*submitted by a system must specifically relate a proposed 
*capital project to the plans required under this section. 

*   In its planning for new program offerings at a particular 
*campus, each public post-secondary governing board shall 
*consider the availability of physical space and the adequacy of 
*facilities at that campus.  If the board determines that new 
*space or facilities are required, it shall examine the 
*feasibility of developing the program at a different campus 
*within its system or in cooperation with other systems and the 
*higher education board.  In planning for new library facilities, 
*each public post-secondary governing board shall consider 
*whether on-campus student study space needs can be more 
*efficiently accommodated within existing facilities."
