University child center
finds Bast Eugene home
After 30 years of temporary
locations, the CCDC will be
located on the corner of East
17th Avenue and Moss Street
Aimee Rudin
City/State Politics Reporter
After more than a year of con
troversy, the ground has finally
been broken on the corner of East
17th Avenue and Moss Street. The
site will be the new home of the
Moss Street Child Center, part of
the University Child Care and De
velopment Center.
The CCDC was established in
1970 as a one-site center, but for
the past 30 years it has had several
temporary homes. Currently, the
CCDC has programs located in the
EMU, in Westmoreland located at
2169 West 17th Court and at the
Green House on 1533 Moss Street.
The new building will replace
the center in the EMU and the
Green House and will have the ca

“For over 30 years, we’ve had
‘temporary’ residency down the
street,” said Veronica Sunderland, a
student organizer for the GGDG.
“Finally, we have our own facility
that’s designed as a child care cen
ter, not just as
an old house
converted into
one.”
The new cen
ter was not wel
comed by
everyone, how
ever. Many res
idents in the
Fairmount
Neighborhood,
the neighbor
hood surrounding the center, were
opposed to the construction.
Complaining that the center
would ruin the residential quality
of the neighborhood by increasing
traffic and noise, residents spent
months working with University
planners and architects to ensure
that the integrity of their neigh
borhood remains intact.
Plans for the building were ap
proved by Eugene city planners in
early December. ASUO President
Rachel Piiliod said the construc
tion of the center is a “huge
accomplishment” for the entire
student body, not just nontradi
tional students.
“This building is something that
students — over the last 30 years
— have chosen to prioritize,” Pii
liod said.
Several multigenerational fami
lies gathered to celebrate CCDC at
the groundbreaking ceremony for
the new building on Thursday.
Amanda Stout attended CGDG
while her mother was a student at
the University. Amanda and her
husband David placed their two
young daughters, Samantha and
Antonia, in the GCDG program
while they attended classes.
“We wouldn’t have been able to
go to school

without
CCDC,” Aman
da Stout said. “I
really feel com
fortable with
the program. I
like the teach
ers, the par
ents, the other
children.”
The
new
building, which
is estimated to cost about $2.6
million, should be open for service
in January 2004, according to
Child Care Center Coordinator
Dennis Reynolds. Hours of opera
tion for the center will be from 7
a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through
Friday. CCDC is open to the com
munity, but University families are
given first priority for enrollment.
The program is accredited by
the National Academy of Early
Childhood Programs and has met
the standards for a high-quality
early childhood program. The new
CCDC building will help to ensure
these high standards continue to
be met in the future, according to
program organizers.
“We’re working on laying the
foundation of a program that will
form the grounds for parents and
families in years to come,”
Reynolds said.
