Final 2005 Long-Range Development Plan

What is a Long-Range Development Plan?

A Long-Range Development Plan is defined as "a physical development and land use plan to meet the academic and institutional objectives for a particular campus or medical center of higher education." It is updated periodically to meet changing needs and conditions. This process ensures that campus development supports academic, research, and public service goals, while also responding to UC systemwide policies and projected enrollment demand.

UCSC's 2005 LRDP does not constitute a mandate for growth, nor is it a detailed implementation plan for development. It does not commit the campus to carrying out development on any given timeline.

Amendments

Subsequent to adoption of the 2005 LRDP, two amendments to the LRDP land use map have been made by the university.

Recycling Yard Project Phase 1

The land-use designation on 1.6 acre of Protected Landscape and 2.1 acres of Site Research and Support was changed to Campus Support. The project site is located in the lower campus, north of the Center for Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems (CASFS) farm.

The land use designation on approximately 17 acres of Campus Resource Land was changed to College and Student Housing to accommodate the project. The project site is located on the lower campus, northeast of the intersection of Hagar and Coolidge drives.
