North
Carolina Agricultural and Technical State
University (NC A&T) was established as the
A&M college for the "Colored Race" in 1891.
HBCU NC A&T, one
of the state's two land grant institutions,
has programs throughthe doctoral level. Its
programs include engineering, arts and
sciences, agricultural and environmental
sciences, business and economics, education,
nursing, technology, and graduates studies. “
The expected roles of a land- grant institution,
is teaching agriculture and engineering, and
providing cooperative extension services”. NC
A&T's 2001 amend University Master Plan
called for developing 75 acres of land
along East Lee Street targeted to develop
new opportunities for both research and
education in both the private and academic
arenas between the University's technology
and agricultural research and its students,
which didn't include across-town historical
white UNC Greensboro and its affiliated
members of the Greensboro business
community. |

Negotiation
began in 2002 and September 2004 NC A&T State
University celebrated the
sighing of Memorandum of Understanding with the
U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) with the
opening of the National Resources Conservation
Services Eastern Regional Technology Center
whose service area consisted of 24 states and
the Caribbean area. The Greensboro Center was
also home to the remote sensing
lab. The Memorandum of Understanding says A&T
has a working farm with modern facilities and
farm equipment. NRCS will benefit from the use
of this farm by being able to provide hands-on
training to NRCS employees. NRCS can sponsor
field studies that can serve as demonstrations
to both NRCS trainees and also local and
regional farmers. A
negotiated action under Solicitation 5NC0075
resulted in a non-competitive award to locate
the USDA Natural Resources Conversation
Service's East National Technical Center and
East Remote Sensing Laboratory on the North
Carolina A&T State University Millennium Campus. |

Request
for Proposals by Gateway University
Research Park for Construction The
Joint School of Nanoscience and
Nanoengineering- dated Sept. 1, 2004
Project Overview: The
JSNN will support established
research programs with faculty from
the two universities and will have
its own faculty lines as well. The
primary goal of the school is to be
a world leader in research,
nano-related education, and
outreach. The JSNN will promote
Research goals, Education goals, and
Outreach goals. To meet these goals,
the JSNN will require specialized,
state-of-the-art industrial quality
research space. These will include
laboratories for life sciences,
engineering, materials science and
other spaces requiring tightly
controlled environments. |

the Project will be constructed:

Item: Lease Agreement between the

 Action
Item background information says, In September
2005 the MSDA formally established a working
relationship between the two universities and
the GCID for future development- Section I.F. of
the MSDA states, "The Universities shall
lease to GCID any or all property designated as
the JMC. ""In order to facilitate the GCID
ability to perform its role as managed/developer
it was determined by counsel for the
universities and the GCID to pursue a master
lease for the properties identified as the
JMC ( land owned by the State of North Carolina
at the former Central North Carolina School for
the Deaf and 75 acres adjacent the the NCA&T
farm) , "by university counsels, GCID),
emphasis added.
Unambiguous
no statutory NCGS:
116-198.34. (8b) NC A&T/ UNCG Joint
Millennial Campus was designated Oct.
2003, whereas MSDA
states, "The Universities shall lease to GCID
any or all property designated as the JMC and
proposed lease was for Identified JMC allegedly
by university council and GCID. |
|
| § 116-198.34. General
powers of Board of Governors. The Board may
exercise any one or more of the following
powers: (1) To determine the location and
character of any project or projects, and to
1 acquire, construct, and provide the same,
and to maintain, repair, and 2 operate, and
to enter into contracts for the management,
lease, use, or operation of all or any
portion of any project or projects and any
existing 4 facilities. |
 |
|
Lacking and designated
NCA&T/UNCG joint Millennial Campus, the
Board of Governor lacked authority pursuant
GS 116-198.34 (1) to enter into contracts
for the management, lease, use, or operation
of all or any portion of any project or
projects and any existing facilities. |
