They continue to have problems keeping people on the parking review board and people missing their appointments is one of the problems. Construction of the Biotech building is approaching and its impacts on parking continue to be a concern. While the return of 50 employee spaces along the front edge of the E-01 lot and 19 behind the Ag Sales center will offset the permanent loss of spaces, the dimensions of the construction fence are now a concern. As many as an additional 80 spaces could be temporarily lost due to construction. Joe Granger hopes to present more information on this topic next month when possible compromises can be discussed.
Additional ideas are welcome.
Because the E-02 lot behind Lehotsky Hall is scheduled for maintenance this summer, Joe is in favor of the idea of allowing employees to park in the commuter lots. In addition, E14, the small employee lot in front of Fike is also scheduled for maintenance work. Maintenance on these lots can start anytime after this semester and last until fall semester. The classes are participatory - you get to practice what you learn. Consideration is being given to developing a shorter schedule for the Rape Defense classes, as people seem reluctant to commit to the 3-day schedule.
