to begin building.
The site the University chose for
the structure, at the comer of East
17th Avenue and Moss Street, is a
residential area, and in order to ob
tain a permit, the University must
comply with certain criteria.
These criteria involve specific
standards for the building’s appear
ance, mostly that it fit in with the
surrounding neighborhood, Associ
ate City Planner Kent Kullby told
the Emerald on July 9.
The Fairmount neighborhood is
a medium-density area, so the Uni
versity’s plans for the building
must blend in with the overall
small building size.
Some of the neighbors said that
the proposed structure did not meet
these stipulations.
“I think it’s institutional, and it
doesn’t fit the character (of the
neighborhood) very well,” Osanka
told the Emerald on Aug. 6.
The University still must apply for
site approval and construction per
mits in order to progress with other
aspects of the project.
“We’ve gotten this far,” University
planning consultant and applicant
representative Terri Harding said.
“It’s just taking the steps in the
process one bit at a time.”
