AMENDED PUD PLAN <br /> <br />The following sections address the specific requirements of the written PUD submittal for <br />the City of Arden Hills' PUD Concept Plan Application and the City of Rosevllle's PUD <br />General Concept Plan Application. <br /> <br />A. NATURE OF THE APPLICANT'S INTEREST <br /> <br />Due to a number of programs and needed physical plant improvements, <br />Northwestern College has identified a future enrollment target of 2,400 full-time <br />equivalent (FTE) students in traditional undergraduate programs. Currently, <br />enrollment is restricted due to the shortage of facilities available on campus. In order <br />to have capacity for the grow1h desired and to accommodate existing needs, the <br />College is proposing improvements over the next 12 to 20 years, as identified in the <br />College's Master Plan, completed in 2003. This Master Plan, developed by Partners <br />and Sirny Architects, integrates academic planning and facilities planning and is <br />referenced in the Appendix of this Report. <br /> <br />B. SIZE OF THE DEVELOPMENT <br /> <br />Northwestern College currently has 1,650 full-time equivalent students. The College <br />is projecting FTE enrollment of 2,400 by 2018. Today, Northwestern College's <br />campus consists of 107 acres and 12 buildings. The Master Plan proposes five new <br />buildings, consisting of a Community Life Center (student union), a science building, <br />an athletic field house, a visitor/alumni center and dormitory. Additions include the <br />music building and Berntsen Resource Center with renovations to the powerhouse. <br />Two partially underground parking facilities are proposed. The existing road that <br />bisects the campus will be re-routed east of Riley Hall, reducing safety issues for <br />students and enabling the College to create a Campus Green. <br /> <br />Northwestern College Master Plan <br />PUD Application Report <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />13529.000 <br />
