CHANUTE — At the Neosho County Community College (NCCC) Board meeting on September 11, 2024, several key updates and resolutions were discussed.

Reports- David Peter from the Kansas Area Career Center (KACC), Paul Walcher from the Faculty Senate, Kerry Ranabargar from Operations, Sandi Solander, the Treasurer, and Dr. Brian Inbody, the President of NCCC, provided updates on their respective areas.

Old Business- Approval of the 2024-2025 RNR Limit and Budget: Both the RNR (Revenue Neutral Rate) Limit and the budget for the upcoming fiscal year were approved, ensuring the college’s financial stability and planning.

Tobacco Use Policy: The Board approved revisions to the Tobacco Use Policy, which now prohibits tobacco and smoke products within any college vehicle or building, including all distant campuses and sites. Smoking is only permitted in designated outdoor areas. The policy specifies that individuals using tobacco products in their vehicles must be parked at least one row away from buildings and sidewalks, with all waste disposed of inside the vehicle. Violations of this policy will be addressed according to the student or employee handbook.
