The Campus Planning Committee is holding a meeting today from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. in the Knight Law Center Presidential Lounge.
The meeting is a continuation of the 2003 East Campus Development Policy review, which began in January. Today’s meeting will focus on the updated communication section of the policy document. It is the last section of the document to be reviewed.
Members of the CPC have worked with Neighborhood Advisory Groups to update the communication section. The update clarifies the long-range development policy and outlines boundaries for areas containing homes that must receive written notice of development.
The CPC will also consider several suggestions and comments made at the Feb. 7 CPC meeting. According to the planning office, these suggestions include a clarification of high-density residential/institutional areas, a definition of appropriate parking structures, a definition between building maintenance and preservation, a determination of zone changes and a direct reference to the Sustainable Development pattern.
After the committee finishes review of the policy they will be asked to provide a recommendation to University President Dave Frohnmayer. Frohnmayer will then present the policy to the City of Eugene for review. The policy can not go into effect until it receives the approval of the city.
