Executive Summary
The Facilities Master Plan process for the Pueblo Community College (PCC)
involved a comprehensive review of various factors including demographics, utilization of facilities,
and facility conditions, coupled with input from stakeholders such as students, faculty, and staff.
Through this process, the Planning Team has identified key findings and areas of focus for the
future.
future.
Demographics: An analysis of demographic data combined with enrollment trends reveals
challenges and opportunities for future campus facility requirements. While the overall adult
population growth is limited, specific demographic segments such as Hispanics and older adults
present opportunities for enrollment growth.
Enrollment: Despite fluctuations, enrollment had stabilized at around 3,000 students before the
impact of COVID-19, with a decline during the pandemic followed by a subsequent increase in
2023 to around 2,340 students. The goal is to return to pre-COVID enrollment levels by 2033, with
a modest future increase projected based on contributory populations.
Utilization: A utilization study of existing instructional space indicates fragmented scheduling
practices but significant available instructional capacity currently. However, as enrollment grows or
facilities deteriorate, the need for integrated campus-wide scheduling will become more critical.
Facilities Assessment: Overall, campus grounds and buildings are well-maintained, with minimal
repair or maintenance required. Specific deficiencies identified are outlined in the Facility
Assessment.
The Plan: Given the current enrollment trends and utilization levels, the Planning Team does
not recommend specific adjustments to classroom or class lab space. Instead, the focus should
be on addressing facility deficiencies identified in the assessment and implementing the Master
Plan Principles, which include activating the campus, enhancing the educational experience, and
implementing enrollment initiatives applicable to all campuses.
