Arboretum
and Landscape Committee Review Procedures
Projects that must be presented to the Committee for approval include
master plans and precinct plans, landscape designs, elective tree
removals or any work impacting trees, site amenity standards and
all building project design guidelines and site plans. Small projects
generally not brought to the Committee include picnic tables, newspaper
racks, lighting, benches, bollards and signs.
Prior
to presenting a project to the Committee for approval, it needs
to be reviewed by the Office of the Architect at least two weeks
before the presentation.
The
Committee holds meetings once per month throughout the year. Agendas
are posted online at the beginning of each semester.
Projects
are usually reviewed twice, first at the conceptual phase and secondly
at the schematic phase. Presentations to the Committee will be made
by the designer or the Office of the Architect with assistance of
the project manager who will be responsible for introducing the
project and answering questions.
