A. The interview procedures of the board are as follows:
1. The user agency notifies the
Office of Facility Planning and Control, or the Office of Facility Planning and
Control may determine on its own that the proposed project is of a special
nature and should be considered under the interview procedure.
2. The user agency, the Office of Facility
Planning and Control, and the chairperson of the board (vice-chairperson in the
absence of the chairperson) shall decide if the nature of the project warrants
utilizing the interview procedure. This may be done in a meeting or by
teleconference.

of the board authorizes the Office of Facility Planning and Control to
advertise the special project under these procedures. The advertisement shall
contain:
a. the deadline for
applications;
b. the date of the
meeting;
c. the proposed interview
meeting date;

(§527) will be followed from
§527 A, and B.1,

first ballot, the following procedure will be implemented:
a. After the results of the weighted ballot
are reported, the board secretary will list all applicants receiving one or
more points. They will be listed in order, ranked by number of points from
highest to lowest.
b. After the
list is prepared, there will be a roll call vote on each applicant starting
with the first applicant on the list. Voting for each applicant will take place
in the order that he/she is listed. Each applicant on the list will receive a
"yes" or "no" vote from each board member. Each applicant that receives a
majority of "yes" votes will be invited to an interview meeting.
c. Voting will end when there are a minimum
of two, but not more than five applicants to be interviewed, or when the end of
the list is reached, whichever comes first.
d. In the event that the end of the list is
reached before there are at least two applicants to be interviewed, the board
may begin voting again by the method of their choice.
e. All applicants selected by the foregoing
process will be invited to an interview meeting.
5. The interview meeting will be held in
accordance with criteria that the board sets forth in a letter to the
applicants that have been selected to be interviewed.

7. After all interviews have been conducted,
the board will return to a public meeting.
