Adam reviewed the schedule and major issues the team has been working with since the last meeting. Adam then summarized the West Precinct area including trails along Stoney Run, crosswalks and woodland quality issues. He explained the design team's intent to pull the qualities of the woodland into the central campus area. It was stressed that the study of the Stoney Run area needed to be linked into a study of the regional system. If the two are not studied at the same time, work on a small area would be in vain because of poor maintenance up or down stream. Restoration of the woodland would have to begin with woodland stewardship studies. Concerns about safety in the Stoney Run area were discussed.

The new option for the Garland quadrangle was discussed and presented to the group. Concerns about the proximity of the field to the buildings was discussed, particularly concern for lacrosse balls.

Concern for the landscaping around the Carnegie Building was expressed.

Eastern High School identity issues were discussed including the idea of renaming the site. The Hopkins Waverly Campus was suggested.

The Open Space Implementation project was reviewed. A Town Hall was scheduled for March 10, 2000 to brief the Hopkins community on the project as well. There was a discussion of the parking situation for the university over the summer. There is a special task force looking at opportunities for remote surface parking near the campus that would be serviced by a shuttle.

Given the intense scheduling pressures created by the Open Space Implementation project, it was agreed that the Architectural Guidelines and the Way-Finding Study portions of the overall Campus Plan will be extended into the summer months.
