PART III - A, Berms and buildings will serve as acoustical barriers to sound from the parking lots and the more distant and faster ring road traffic 13. Heavy equipment and the plant nursery will be at the corporation yard, outside the ring road. In other exterior areas provision is made for playing fields, residential developments in low housing clusters, and campus expansion, when necessary. 14. This plan is designed to provide for 12,500 FTE students by 1982, but it should be noted that it actually provides for a much larger population. Part-time students, faculty, staff, families and support personnel can enlarge this number to 20,000 persons or more. Should the University need to expand for a larger student body and corresponding increase in other personnel, the plan provides land reservations within and outside the ring road for additional construction, and it allows for enlargement of some buildings within the central cluster. A development master plan is detailed in its provisions for immediate needs and for those of the foreseeable future. For the more distant future, it offers design concepts intended as guidance for longrange growth in harmony with the basic scheme, even when future facilities may need to be quite different from those now envisioned. The planning consultants have directed their efforts at a Long Range Development Plan of both conceptual soundness and flexibility. They recommend that it be subjected to periodic scrutiny, so that the broad directions of the plan may be maintained. They recommend that the development plan be kept readily available to all those who may be involved in planning the University's activities and programs. ^ :-'•' Plans: Within the front cover of this report and easily opened out, Plan A at 1" . 400', shows the LONG RANGE DEVELOPMENT PLAN - TOTAL CAMPUS - 740 ACRES.
