Bauman moved to amend the file by the following: On page 13: 6.0 Campus Housing 6.1 Encourage private development/student housing options within the larger city fabric >>, particularly in the central business district<< 6.2 Locate University-operated student housing [[along transit routes in student- friendly districts]] >>only on the main (Kenwood) UWM campus or the Columbia Hospital property; discourage the development of additional publicly- or privately-owned student housing and redirect the development of student housing to the central business district<< 6.3 Investigate redevelopment of Oakland Avenue retail to include housing 6.4 Restrict single level retail in new development 6.5 Encourage multi-level mixed use retail On page 28: Residential Goals • Strengthen and improve the existing neighborhood fabric. • Increase owner-occupancy throughout the Northeast Side. • Provide a variety of housing choices for residents, including affordable housing. • Preserve historic housing structures. • >>Discourage the development of additional publicly- or privately-owned student housing in the Upper East Side and Lower East Side planning areas (other than on the main (Kenwood) UWM campus and the Columbia Hospital property); redirect the development of student housing to the central business district.<< On page 91, create a new #14 that reads as follows: 14. Discourage the development of additional publicly- or privately-owned student housing in the Upper East Side and Lower East Side planning areas (other than on the main (Kenwood) UWM campus and the Columbia Hospital property); redirect the development of student housing to the central business district. On page 198: F. CAMPUS HOUSING Seek student housing solutions that are compatible with UWM’s historic campus (the original Downer Teachers College buildings) as well as the surrounding neighborhood. Blend new housing development with the urban fabric and avoid abrupt changes in scale and character. >>Discourage the development of additional publicly- or privately-owned student housing (other than on the main (Kenwood) UWM campus and the Columbia Hospital property); redirect the development of student housing to the central business district.<< On page 203, rewrite the “OFF-CAMPUS HOUSING” section as follows: OFF-CAMPUS HOUSING 1. Discourage the development of additional publicly- or privately-owned student housing on the Upper East Side, other than on the main (Kenwood) UWM campus and the Columbia Hospital property. 2. Redirect the development of student housing to Milwaukee’s central business district. On pages 206 and 207, rewrite the “STUDENT HOUSING STRATEGIES” section as follows: 1. Develop an effective housing plan to address existing and future University housing needs. 2. Identify sites on the main (Kenwood) UWM campus that would be appropriate for the construction of new student residence halls. 3. Evaluate potential solutions for housing alternatives on-campus. 4. Discourage the development of additional publicly- or privately-owned off-campus student housing in the Upper East Side and Lower East Side planning areas, except, perhaps, for new student housing on the Columbia Hospital campus. 5. Redirect the development of student housing to Milwaukee’s central business district. 6. Consider commercial districts or mixed-use neighborhoods with high-quality amenities and good transit connections to UWM (e.g., Downtown) as desirable locations for remote student housing and/or satellite campuses. This should not include commercial or mixed-use neighborhoods in the Upper East Side or Lower East Side planning areas. 7. Reduce headways along MCTS transit routes serving UWM (e.g., Routes 15, 21, 30 and 62). For satellite campuses, use designated transit with good headways (10-15 minutes) similar to the shuttle that serves the Kenilworth facility. 8. As opportunities arise, UWM should partner with the private sector to develop student housing Downtown or in other areas with good transit links to the main (Kenwood) UWM campus but not located in the Upper East Side or Lower East Side planning areas. 9. Develop a plan to provide housing in University-managed properties for all freshman and sophomore students. As a policy, locate freshman and sophomore residences on or close to the main (Kenwood) UWM campus. Upperclassmen and graduate students may be placed farther away. On pate 224, add a fourth bullet point under item #1 in the “CONTEXT SENSITIVE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES” section: • Discourage the development of additional publicly- or privately-owned student housing; redirect the development of student housing to the central business district.
