A reworked Fairmount/U
niversity Special Area Study
comes under discussion at a
public hearing tonight at 7:30
p m in the McNutt Room of City
Hall.
“The study is really pretty
flexible but still provides some
significant guarantees,” says
University Planner David Rowe
“There is a lot of peace of mind
in that plan for everybody."
Originally, area residents
were concerned by University
suggestions for extensive
development of University
owned property But the final
copy of the study provides con
solidation of the University's
development interests into a
one block area adjacent to
Hayward Field
According to the study, the
University will not expand into
its tenant property until that
block is fully developed Funds
for further developement are
slim these days, says Rowe.
The University owns about 40
acres of residential and institu
tional property in the 98 5 acre
study area
The study provides a set of
policies to protect the interests
of the University, local busin
of the University, local busi
nesses, government properties
neighborhood's northern end
which reaches from Franklin
Boulevard to 19th Avenue
The University Planning
Department and a Fairmount
planning committee wrote the
study together with legal con
sulting from city planning com
mission representatives, com
mittee member Chuck Sowards
says. The Fairmount Neighbor
hood Committee recently fin
ished two years of work on the
study, Sowards says
He says the study makes liva
ble compromises for all parties

Area study hearings set
involved
The study calls for a "buffer
zone" of a medium density re
sidential strip between high and
low density areas. It also
proposes bicycle routes, Lane
Transit District bus service
review by the neighborhood,
parking policies, and traffic cir
culation policies
Sowards says that the Fair
mount committee bent over
backwards to accommodate
area businesses.
All but one area business
have adopted study policies,
most of which concern them
selves with cosmetic concerns.
Following the hearing, the
study goes to the City Council
for possible adoption into the
city’s Metropolitan Area Gener
al Plan.
