Public meeting on March 18 to address master planning process

Purdue's master planning consultants will provide an update on the status of the West Lafayette campus master planning process during a meeting at 6:30 p.m. March 18 in Room 314, Stewart Center.

The meeting is open to the public.

Sasaki Associates of Watertown, Mass., and Scholer Corporation of Lafayette will present progress on Phase Three (Master Plan and Implementation) at this meeting.

Phase One (Campus Inventory and Analysis) and Phase Two (Campus Alternatives) of the three-phase process were completed last spring and fall, respectively.

The third and final phase of the master plan process is expected to be complete in fall 2008.

The updated master plan will encourage sustainable and accessible design; strengthen pedestrian orientation; enhance the campus landscape; accommodate parking needs and anticipate, plan for and guide campus growth and development.
