DISCUSSION
The meeting began with a brief discussion of the community
meeting that was held last night.
The regional traffic plan was discussed and the potential
implications of increased bus traffic on Charles
Street.
The importance of the first time experience of visitors to campus
was discussed. The manner in which they find
their way to campus, enter, and park is very important and
memorable and should be as easy as possible.
The most recent changes to the plan were discussed, including the
incorporation of the open-ended Garland quad
scheme.
It was decided that the baseball field needed to be worked on
further and that with its new placement, a net would
be needed.
With the beginning of the West Precinct study phase, Michael
Vergason discussed the woodland quality. He
suggested that a woodland management study should be done as well
as water quality testing. Pathway development
along San Martin Drive as well as down into the Stoney Run area
will be a large part of the design process for this
precinct.
