Document Type: MND - Mitigated Negative Declaration
Received: 10/22/2018

Document Description: The project would include construction of a 4-story, 72,000 assignable sf/102,900 gsf Science and Agriculture Teaching and Research Complex (SATRC), which would house laboratories, interdisciplinary spaces, and faculty offices. The project would include demolition of Building #53A (Science North Annex), which is approx 8,300 sf. The new building would accommodate the existing Building #53A uses except for two, which would be relocated to nearby sites. The plant conservatory would consist of 3,000 sf of covered space and 3,000 sf of uncovered/outdoor space. The vivarium use would consist of a 1,500 sf pre-fabricated building. The project will require a Campus Master Plan Amendment, but would not affect overall enrollment or exceed the development potential identified in the 2001 Cal Poly Master Plan.
