21 CAMPUS PLANNING PRINCIPLES 1. Open Space as Campus Organizing Tool 2. Open Spaces Formed by Building Edges and Placement 3. Varied Architectural Styles Harmonized by Landscape 4. Campus Designed to Reinforce Educational Experience 5. Integration of Campus and Community

22 1. Open space as campus organizing tool Defines / Interconnects Campus Variety Created by Asymmetry, Architectural Style and Landscape

23 2. Campus Open Spaces Formed by Building Edges and Placement Enclose Quadrangles Define Vistas Architectural Treatment of Facades

24 3. Varied Architectural Styles Harmonized by Landscape Common materials and color palette Styles range from traditional to modern

25 5. Campus Designed to Reinforce Educational Experience Spaces to Foster Interaction Among Faculty and Students Circulation - pedestrian -bicycle Quadrangles Gathering Places

26 5. Integration of Campus and Community Relationship with residential neighborhoods and the Reseda commercial district Campus as integral part of the Valley Communities

29 MASTER PLAN ISSUES TO BE ADDRESSED I N P U T F R O M F O R U M N o. 1 Two meetings September 15 th Over 100 people attended Comments recorded and transcribed All comments posted on Master Plan web site

30 MASTER PLAN ISSUES TO BE ADDRESSED I N P U T F R O M F O R U M N o. 1 Comments have been summarized & categorized: PEDESTRIAN MOBILITY TRAFFIC & ROADWAYS PARKING FACILITIES ALTERNATE MODES OF TRANSPORTATION OPEN SPACE DESIGN GUIDELINES CAMPUS AMBIENCE COMMUNITY FACILITIES SAFETY & ACCESSIBILITY HOUSING SUSTAINABILITY MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS

31 MASTER PLAN ISSUES TO BE ADDRESSED PEDESTRIAN MOBILITY Wide, accessible pathways Avoid pedestrian/vehicle conflicts Pedestrian connections into campus Paths to support pedestrian flow Signage Exciting walkways with views, art Improve on-campus mobility for disabled Greenway access to Reseda TRAFFIC & ROADWAYS Car-less campus Traffic from Art Complex events Improve traffic signage Etiwanda and Plummer: conflict Increased traffic on Zelzah due to High School Define entry point to campus ALTERNATE MODES OF TRANSPORTATION More/better bike paths Covered bike parking/locking Improve access to public transportation Incentives for carpooling Alternative to move quickly around campus (tram) Shuttles for new housing on North Campus Improve connections to MetroLink Student Services Commuter Center PARKING FACILITIES Need more parking Create sufficient parking for weekend events, venues, sports Improve handicap parking Identify priority parking areas for students and faculty Carpooling preferential parking

32 MASTER PLAN ISSUES TO BE ADDRESSED OPEN SPACE DESIGN GUIDELINES CAMPUS AMBIENCE Preserve instructional open space Preserve green space Preserve Orange Grove Provide shade in open spaces Plant more trees Improve landscaping Keep open space green Improve open space for gatherings Continue good landscaping Design Environmentally-friendly buildings Avoid high-rise development Prefer high-rise if it preserves green space Design appropriate spaces for learning Create landmark elements that identify gateways to the campus COMMUNITY Preserve campus landmarks Keep campus pedestrian only Preserve open space on campus core Create an environment pleasant to students Strengthen campus identity Make campus more inviting/accessible to surrounding areas Change culture of commuter into residential campus Expand campus towards Reseda Blvd. Create community outreach programs Improve access to fields for community members Desire of community to participate in shaping Master Plan Keep green spaces along edges open for community use

33 MASTER PLAN ISSUES TO BE ADDRESSED FACILITIES SAFETY & ACCESSIBILITY HOUSING Additional space for specialized facilities Share facilities with community Create new Performing Arts complex Alumni facilities and programs Need for research space Protect athletic fields Improve athletic venues Improve lighting at night Pedestrian safety Improve safety in student housing Improve access to campus Define entry points to campus with signage Create more student housing Create mixed-use housing Increase density Keep student housing affordable Provide faculty housing Keep student housing apart from residential neighborhoods Provide housing for grad students Improve community access to fields No football venue MAINTENANCE & OPERATIONS SUSTAINABILITY Maintain and improve facilities Use LEEDS* standards Sustainable buildings & systems Keep open space permeable, do not use pavement excessively Contain large crowds from events on-campus, no spill-over to adjacent neighborhood Isolate noise from fields Plant more trees * Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
