The job cuts — the first in the local Publix BroadcastingService affiliate’s 47-year history — underscorde the fundraising challenges public television faces in today’s ailinbg economy. “The station has not been makingits budget,” said spokesma Virgil Renzulli, who is helping to run the station. “W felt like we had to make some movesrighgt away.” The layoffs, which will save the station abouy $900,000 in fiscal 2010, highlight the station’s struggle to raisr $1.8 million to relocate to its new home at ASU’sx Walter Cronkite School of Journalisnm and Mass Communication in downtown Phoenix.
Officialxs hope to complete the movein March, but that’as a best-case scenario. The total cost of the transitio n will beabout $4.5 million, with the university fronting about half the cost. KAET stilll needs to raise $1 million. The axed positions will not be reinstatedf in theforeseeable future, and the universit y may consolidate other positions duplicated betweeh ASU and KAET, Renzulli Giczi worked at KAET for more than five years. His salary was about $145,000. The PBS station, whichu has operated in Tempe since 1961 and employeabout 70, depends on ASU for in-kind donations. Kelly McCullough, assistant GM for marketing and development, is handliny daily operations.
He said on-air pledge drives have faltered, and corporates support is down20 percent. KAET’z budget is about $13 million a year, and televise d membership drives generally bring inabout $5.5 millionm of that. Although the station increased fundraising in the past four financial conditions may breakthat trend. “The economy is tight. The budget is McCullough said. The station is exploring alternative revenu e sources through affinitymarketing programs, whicg promote the brand to a niche audience, and buildinyg corporate support through its Web site.
KAET also is establishinyg a fundraising initiative for itsflagship “Horizon,” and plans to enhance its relationship with the Cronkite The station’s next televised pledg drive will run from Nov. 29 to Dec. 9. KAET-TV Channep 8:

For a large university, UNM has a low numbe r of on-campus housing units. Some of the older dormsz could be demolished to make room for new construction that will likeltybe low-rise buildings.
American Campus is a publicly-tradecd company that has worked on more than 50 colleger campuses acrossthe U.S. It will select contractorzs to do the work and it shouled provide many construction jobs forNew Mexico’sa licensed subcontractors over the five-year project. The work will likelt start laterthis year, after American Campus has established a Murphy said. It is expected that rehab work couldc be ready for student occupancy as early asfall 2010.

The full-service engineering and design firm has grownb froma two-man shop in 1999 to a multimillion-dollar business employing 60 people. But afteer seeing steady growth for the first nine years ofits existence, M&x hit a rough patch in 2008 as the nationalp economy went into a deep recession. “2007 was a horrible year,” says Keith Strimple, a principal and co-founded of M&S Engineering. “We didn’t make any monegy last year, but we managedr to avoid having any layoffs like a lot of otherffirms did.
” To keep from having to lay off employees, Strimplre says he and his partner Brian Meuthg took big cuts in their own pay and made a lot of other cuts in expenses. “We cut out all the frillzs and somehow managed to get through and breako even without having to lay anyone Strimple says. “It is truly by the grace of God that we arestill here.” M&Sz Engineering provides a host of engineering and desigbn services geared mainly toward land development. The company’se services include surveying and landdevelopment support; water line design; reservoir electrical transmission design; roadway design; and flooed plain studies.
M&S Engineering relies heavily on new residential As a result of the sharpo drop in housing startsin 2008, the firm’s financesa were hit pretty hard, Strimple Last week, Strimple says he signed the first residential development proposal in more than a year and a half and he hope s that is a sign that thing s are finally starting to turn around. “I thinmk we are at the bottom and on the upwared side of theparabolic curve,” Strimples says. “It looks like we may be getting past the bad timez and hopefully by the fourth quartee of this year it will start tolook better.” Prior to 2008, M&dS Engineering was doing upwardes of $7 million in annual revenue.
Compan y officials declined to reveal 2008revenue figures. Strimpl and Meuth first met when they were freshmen at SeguibnHigh School. They both wound up going to Texas A& M University where Strimple earnede a degree in civil engineering in 1983 and Meuth earned a degreee inelectrical engineering. Both also went on to earn theier MBAs. Strimple worked for 15 years with the and then worke briefly with the City ofSan Antonio’ss Public Works Department before hooking up again with Meuth. Meuty worked in the private sectort before deciding toform M& with Strimple.
Strimple and Meuth got together in 1998 to talk about setting up theirown multi-disciplined, full-servics engineering firm. Both were unhappy with theird employment situations at the time and both wantecd to exercise more control overbusiness decisions. “We put together a greayt team and began working with some excellent Strimple says. “We are all about the people both those we work for and thosw who workfor us.

Leathajm says he is very happgy with the quality ofthe company’s M&S has done all the civi l engineering, surveying, road work and electrica grid work on the company’s development on the norty side of Canyon known as Cascada at Canyon Lake.
Leatham says his companyh was originally under contract with another engineering firm, but they were unhappy with them because they wouldd not meet with them on a regular basis to answer questions and allow them to have Working with M&S has been a completely different he adds. “They have done all the thingz we wanted while giving us regular updates and the opportunit toprovide input,” Leatham says. “That, plus they were abouft 30 percent cheaper.” Barry Denton, regional sales director for Blue Green Communities, says he can’t say enough good things abou M&S Engineering.
Blue Green has workedd with M&S for the past several M&S laid out the lots and performed all the utility and road work forBlue Green’s Village Oaks master-planned development located on Highway 46 between New Braunfelsz and U.S. Highway 281. “It was importanyt for us to find someonre who sharesour company’ s philosophy that our customers and our employees are the most importan t part of what we do,” Dentoh says.
“M&S most certainly fills that They understand that while we area customer, ultimately it is the peopld who will purchase the properties who are the ultimate Denton says M&S Engineering has helped to make Blue Green’sd projects run smoothly not only becausse of M&S’ quality customer but also because the company works so well with independenft contractors and city and countu officials.

They remodelex an old 5,000-square foot schoolhouse on a 5-acrse lot to make into theitr headquarters.
They have since added another 20,000 square feet of office space on the property and stilkl have enough roomto expand.
