校园村3项目概述

• 什么是校园村3?

  • 校园村3, or “CV3”, will be the newest addition to 利记’s campus student housing. The project will replace, in a phased approach, Washburn Hall, the existing Dining Commons, and Joe West Hall with a new 12-story dormitory 建筑 containing 1,007 student beds, a 900-person capacity dining hall, and a new venue for the eventual relocation of the Welcome Center along San Salvador Street. 的初始阶段 project (P1) will be a 133’-tall 建筑 and the second phase (P2) will be a 113’-tall 建筑.

• 为什么需要这座建筑?

  • 利记在乎 works with students to address their housing insecurity needs, which includes financial assistance to meet a deposit or rent payment, emergency housing options on and off 校园等资源. The most recent holistic basic needs survey 由利记在乎领导的机构发现了这一点 41.5% of students experienced housing insecurity, which includes a number of factors ranging from affordability, quality and safety, to the imminent threat of homelessness. While most students do not experience homelessness, 11.2% of all students in 2021 reported experiencing homelessness for at least 一个 一天. The average time spent experiencing homelessness is 3.共4天，含 top two accommodations being couch surfing or living in a vehicle. 此外,许多 students from underrepresented backgrounds have minimal reserve funds for use in case 的紧急情况. 

    
    Compounding unfavorable conditions for students is the overall lack of availability 住房 in the near-campus area and South Bay in general. 新的大型项目 campus will consume most, if not all, the remaining housing options currently available to students and contribute to even tighter conditions for all residents in search 住房.

    
    A new on-campus housing option that is purpose-built with affordability in mind is necessary to keep our students on track for academic success.

     

• 这个项目要花多少钱?

  • The project budget was developed based upon a program and feasibility study developed by Solomon Caldwell Buenz and checked against Brailsford & 邓拉维可比住宅 project development costs at CSU and other campuses. 开发成本估算如下 first developed and vetted in late 2018/early 2019 and have been escalated forward 到2022年秋天.  Additional validation will be undertaken during the planning phase to ensure the budget estimates remain valid prior to going to bid.

    The total cost for the combined residential and dining  project is estimated at $333,950,000, including planning, design and engineering, construction including escalation, project management, permitting and other fees, group II equipment, and contingency. 

• Why is 利记 demolishing Washburn Hall instead of refurbishing it?

  • The deferred maintenance and backlog for the Washburn Residence Hall is $10 million, with the Dining Commons adding a further $6.600万美元，总共16美元.600万年. The removal of these two deferred maintenance budget liabilities represents a sizable percentage of the university’s self-supporting facility backlog. 替换现有的 facilities with CV3-P1 will also deliver a modern design and 建筑s system to insulate operational capacity in the event of future health and safety concerns. 现代系统 and construction will also reduce maintenance and operations costs (on a per square 脚底)达到效率. By investing in CV3-P1 and removing the deferred maintenance liability, the campus is in a better position to provide affordable living 在规定的水平.

• 这个项目怎么可行?

  • As this project is undergoing a strategic reevaluation by university planning officials, no specifics have been determined as to the financing of this project. 最初的计划 called for leveraging CSU systemwide revenue bonds to help offset the cost of construction.

• 这将如何影响校园?

  • 的初始阶段 project will entail the demolition of Washburn Hall and will require some temporary construction closures and campus walkway and roadway detours 容纳建筑物. Access to the existing Dining Commons and the SRAC may be altered, but they will remain in operation.

• Will this project require California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) mitigation?

  • It is not anticipated that the project will require CEQA mitigation as the development size fits within the currently developed 校园总体规划 文档. The campus utility master plan has taken into account the need for infrastructure 支持发展.

• 这将如何影响校园 finances?

  • The project will represent an increase in operational costs due to the debt load associated 随着新建筑. Additionally, other operational costs will be incurred related to operation of the facility and the housing and dining programs housed within it. It is expected that revenues resulting from housing rents and facility lease payments will cover expenses or be carried by the overall housing and dining programs.
