Mr. Plleen spoke next of the need for more student housing of the sort contemplated and the student demand for it. The housing would consist of apartments to accom- modate "4 to 6 students, mostly 4. The facilitees'would be such as to provide total cooking and housekeeping. There would be no parking in the complex. Students will park in the adjacent major parking lot. Mr. Roscoe spoke of the size of the site; 10 - 11 acres. He agreed that about 1/3 would not be available for building because it.is a small ravine, traversed by a stream. Architect Bohlen deccribed the few preliminary concepts with which.he was dealing. Housing for about 300 students'and a small-faculty-group townhouses each with 4 living units. He mentioned a central administration building with offices, some rooms for student meetings, an assembly hall. The buildings will be dis- tributed, and where appropriate, linked together. There was discussion regarding the pattern-of life that would develop. The University spolesmen wished to develop a program that would accord with the Village Ordinances. The architect and Engineer Rogers agreed that some adjustments might have to be made to bring some points of detail into conformity with the Village Ordinances. The University officials accepted the idea that:those who lived in the new housing district would be within the jurisdiction of the Cayuga'Heights Judicial and police department. Discussion ended at 8:30. The architect said that the first sketches will be ready in four or five weeks. W I r�
