Additional New Housing

Growth projections and the lack of available student housing
in the surrounding communities evidence the need to build an additional
housing complex on campus in addition to Sauvignon Village. (Sauvignon
Village, pictured above, is currently under construction and scheduled
for completion by Fall 2000.) Thus, an additional complex is proposed
as a component of the Master Plan Revision, to house 400 students and
to be constructed in 2001/2002. The proposed site is what is now Parking
Lot D. A graphic showing this additional housing complex is being developed;
it is not represented on the proposed Master Plan Revision graphics at
this time. It is anticipated that the additional housing complex will
be predominately composed of studio apartments, with a similar architectural
style to Sauvignon Village.
Issues
Issue 6: Create strong pedestrian
connections between existing and new student housing and the central campus
core
Proposed design responses:
- Limit traffic in the student housing areas
- Make the western roadways separating housing from the central campus
core pedestrian oriented
- Reduce width of roadways and provide a turnaround for general traffic
at entry plaza to Sauvignon Village. Provide only restricted parking
beyond this point.
- Provide clear pedestrian pathways to the central campus core
