Purchase of NCC dormitory
awaits emergency sanction
By Chris Norred
Of the Kmrrald
The University's purchase of a parking lot and
residence hall from neighboring Northwest Chris
tian College must now be approved by the State
Legislative Emergency Board.
The Oregon State System of Higher Education
board, at its monthly meeting Friday, decided to
ask the Emergency Board to increase OSSHE's
limit on expenditures for land purchases so the
University can complete the purchase from NCC.
The OSSHE staff will request the limit increase
when it meets with the Emergency Board. Nov. 6
and 7. The OSSHE board approved the Univer
sity’s purchase of the NCC property in
September, but the issue of the land expenditure
limit was overlooked at that time.
The Legislature establishes a limit on the
amount of money OSSHE can spend on land ac
quisitions. Currently that limit is $500,000,
which has been adequate in the past, according to
OSSHE officials. But in the current biennium, a
$400,000 land purchase at Portland State Univer
sity and the University's $500,000 purchase will
push OSSHE over the limit.
The OSSHE staff in November will ask the
Emergency Board to increase the limit by
$750,000 "to permit completion of the approved
need for the space, and because money tor the
purchase will come from University housing and
parking fees rather than the state budget.
The NCC property for sale is on 12th Avenue
between Alder and Kincaid streets. The parking
purchase, and to provide opportunity for other
smaller purchases which may vet occur within
this biennium."
The Emergency Hoard is expected to approve
the University's purchase because of the sincere
lot has space for more than 50 cars. The residence
hall has six apartments and is expected to be used
for married student housing.
The $500,000 purchase cost of the lot and
building will be divided between University
parking operations and the housing department.
Approximately 80 percent of the cost will Ire paid
by parking operations and 20 percent by Univer
sity housing.
In other business Friday, the OSSHE board:
• approved the start of a master of science degree
program in Engineering Management at Portland
State University;
• deferred action on Western Oregon State Col
lege's request for the start of a Public Policy and
Administration degree program;
• deferred approval of amendments to state
residence rules pending changes in the wording
of the amendments;
• approved a preliminary design for the Oregon
Police Academy at Western Oregon State College;
• approved improvements to the wave researc h
facility at Oregon State University;
• approved $17,195,000 worth of projects for the
rehabilitation and alteration of the University
Hospital and Clinics at the Oregon Health
Sciences University;
• approved the schematic design for an Eye
Center at OHSU.
