WRIGHT, ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES, AGENT. (ADJOURNED FROM APRIL 17,
1990.)
Chairperson Grigorov declared the Public Hearing in the
above -noted matter dulyiopened at 7 :51 and read aloud from the Notice
of Public Hearings as posted and published and as noted above.
Mr. Paul Griffen, Associate Vice President /Facilities Planning
and Construction at Cornell University, addressed the Board and stated
that Cornell has decided that the Maplewood Community does not need
the two Laundry/Lounge, rooms. Mr. Griffen said that there is a
laundry facility in the newly renovated community center which
adequately services the', entire community. However, Mr. Griffen noted
that Cornell intends toladd four additional washers and four dryers in
the laundry /commons facility yet to be constructed at the Mitchell
Street end of the site; commenting, this will reduce the pressure on
the existing facility land be a more convenient location for those
living on the Mitchell Street side of the complex.
• Mr. Griffen mentioned the storage of items in the warehouse.
At this point, Chairperson Grigorov noted that this was a Public
Hearing and asked if anyone present wished to speak. No one spoke.
Chairperson Grigorov closed the Public Hearing at 7:54 p.m. and
brought the matter back to the Board for discussion.
Mr. Griffen again mentioned 'the warehouse, in that Cornell
intends to use the warehouse for the storage of furniture and
equipment for both Maplewood and other residential sites, but noted
that the warehouse is not intended as a location for general repair.
Mr. Griffen said that Cornell wants to make sure the area is always
tidy and neat, and feels that by using the storage space this will
occur.
Mr. Griffen offered that the storage operation would not be
public space, adding that this would not be a fully staffed warehouse
operation with continuous in and out traffic during the course of the
working day.
Eva Hoffmann wondered if there would be an increase in the amount
of traffic. Mr. Griffen responded that, based on the kind of activity
Cornell has experiened in the two off- campus locations they are
presently renting, they project that the Maplewood warehouse would
generate an additional five trips per week on and off the site, noting
• that these trips would l,occur between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4 :00
p.m. which is a time when most students are in class.

Planning Board -5- May 1, 1990
Continuing, Mr. Griffen said that in the absence of an on -site
facility, the number of trips the Residence Life truck might make on
and off the site in a given week could actually increase.
Ms. Hoffmann wondered what would be stored in the Quonset Hut.
Mr. Albert Wright replied that new and used surplus furniture to
replace or supplement furniture in use throughout the residence halls
will be stored. Mr. Wright added that surplus new appliances,
plumbing fixtures, and electrical fixtures will be stored and made
available to replace similar items in use throughout the residence
hall system, including Maplewood.` Mr. Wright offered that the
inventory will include ranges, refrigerators, hot water heaters,
sinks, lavatories, water closets, heating units, and light fixtures.
Mr. Wright stated that custodial supplies and equipment such as
wet -vacs, carpet cleaning machines, power scrubbers, and high speed
burnishers will be inventoried, primarily for use at Maplewood, but
available for use elsewhere.
Mr. Wright stated that approximately 1/5 or 1/6 of the storage
area will be set aside for Maplewood residents. Mr. Wright said that
the Maplewood Park units are fully furnished, but sometimes students
arrive with their own furniture. Mr. Wright commented that storage
space is required to provide for either Cornell furniture not in use,
or personal furniture for which there is no room. The storage area
will also accommodate large bulky items difficult to store for long
periods within the units themselves, adding, bicycles and snow tires
are two items that fall'jinto that category.
Board Member Robert.Miller stated that he did not see any problem
with the building where'.it is presently located.

children; one by the laundry area, and one by the open pavilion.
