Description a. Provide a project summary of 50 words or less to be published in the EQB Monitor. Northwestern College proposes to implement its Master Plan, which increases the totul FTE student population from 1,600 to 2,400 and provides facilities, parking, and infrastructure to support the current enrollment and increased student population. The primary College site consists of 94.64 acres and is located in Arden Hills and Roseville. b. Give a complete description of the proposed project and related new construction. Attach additional sheets as necessary. Emphasize construction, operation methods and features that will cause physical manipulation of the environment or will produce wastes. Include modifications to existing equipment or industrial processes and significant demolition, removal or remodeling of existing structures. Indicate the timing and duration of construction activities. Northwestern College is located in the cities of Arden Hills and Roseville and has experienced an increase in demand for its programs and facilities. In response to this demand, the College prepared a Master Plan jor the College which determined that both in terms of programs (sta�ng and curriculum) and facilities (size and character of the campus), the ideal size of the campus in terms of full-time enrollment (FTE's) is 2,400 students. The Master Plan out/ines the College's current and _future needs in terms of rzecessary classrooms, support facilities, and parking, and lays out the facility needs for the College for the next 12 to 20 years. Enrollment is currently restricted due to the shortage of facilities available on campus and the existing PUD. Based w� the Master Plan there are many improvements, renovations, additions, and other modificatiorzs proposed. These pro�osed �rojects wil/ address on-campus housing, parking, tra�c, surface water, and classroom/office space issues faced by the College now and with growth in the number of students, faculty, and staff. The projects identified are preliminary and conceptual at this point. Over the course of 12 to 20 years, many changes could occur and the Phasing Plan could change. Today, Northwestern College's campus consists of 107 acres and 14 buildings (approximately 12.5 acres and itve buildings are locuted south of Lydia and east of Snelling, and are not the subject of this EAW.) The Master Plan proposes seven new structures, consisting of a Communiry Life Center (student union), an academic/science building, a resrdence hall, an athletic freld house, a visitor/alumni center, a dormitory, and two parking structures. Additions include the music building Berntsen Resource Center, KTIS Addition with renovations to the powerhouse. The existing road that bisects the campus will be re-routed east of Riley Hall, reducing safetv issues for students and enabling the College to create a Campus Green. As these capital imprrovements are made, related improvement.r for surface wuter management, traffic, and parking will be made to accommodate student/faculty enrollment growth. The College has completed a detailed traffic impact study and stormwater management study and will address grading and drainage, landscaping (visual impact, open space, screening, environmental impact, Page Z
