THE

PROCESS

CREATING THE MASTER PLAN

INTRODUCTION

Burt Hill’s higher education experience with over 200 campuses nationwide has allowed for a thorough and developed master planning process that is inclusive and transparent yet flexible enough to accommodate the needs and desires of each University community. The process provides a strong framework that allows each institution to showcase its unique campus culture and administrative philosophy. Typically, Burt Hill proposes that the master planning process physically represents a University’s strategic plan. The University engaged Burt Hill to prepare a comprehensive campus master plan for its Fredericksburg and Stafford campuses.

E S TA B L I S H I N G A S T E E R I N G C O M M I T T E E

Prior to the start of the project, the University of Mary Washington established a Steering Committee, a small group of stakeholders whose role was to advise the President. This group also served as the primary connection between the institution as a whole and Burt Hill. The members represented a diverse cross section of the University that could be engaged throughout the process, including faculty, students, and administration.

E S TA B L I S H G O A L S A N D G U I D I N G P R I N C I P L E S

Once the Steering Committee was established, Burt Hill worked with the group to establish the Goals and Guiding Principles of the project. Burt Hill’s team confirmed that each recommendation of the Master Plan fulfilled the goals and principles of the University of Mary Washington’s Strategic Plan.

C A M P U S W O R K S H O P S A N D I N F O R M AT I O N G AT H E R I N G

The project team spent several days on campus in an effort to become immersed in the University’s culture and gather appropriate baseline information. Burt Hill collected all existing documentation relevant to the planning process, such as surveys, reports, construction documents, and other previously completed plans and studies. This information was catalogued and reviewed with the University for accuracy. Burt Hill then conducted interviews, focus groups, and public forums, using proven methods of information gathering to engage specific audiences and gain information directly from multiple constituencies. In addition to focus groups, Burt Hill also engaged the University at-large with electronic questionnaires to faculty, staff, students and alumni to gain a broader understanding of each campus’ positive and negative aspects.

STEP 1 - CREATING A CAMPUS PROFILE

Burt Hill first became familiar with UMW’s campus history, academic programs, campus and academic vision, enrollment statistics, staffing data, and physical environment. The team reviewed and examined the collection of information and data provided by the University and presented all relevant facts that were used to inform and shape the rest of the Master Plan document. At the conclusion of this phase, Burt Hill understood the aspects that make University of Mary Washington special and why the UMW is one of the top liberal arts colleges in the nation.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

STEP II - ASSESSING CAMPUS CONDITIONS

During Step II, Burt Hill and their consultants then evaluated the physical and operating conditions of the campuses and grounds at UMW through field inspection and discussion with facilities management and operations personnel. The assessment considered the existing campus-wide conditions of land use, circulation, landscape, geography, security, physical conditions, life safety, accessibility, environmental issues, technology, utilities, adaptability, and suitability. All academic, athletic, food service, residential, research, physical plant, and student service buildings were individually examined and analyzed. All buildings on both campuses were assessed considering architectural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, code compliant, accessible, and technological features. This data aided in informing recommendations regarding adaptability and suitability. Burt Hill identified limitations and opportunities that could be used to shape future campus recommendations. A comprehensive campus survey was also used to confirm the conditional data found in the July 2009 Asset Detail Report.

S T E P I I I - A N A LY Z I N G S PA C E N E E D S

The analysis performed during this step identified current use in the existing facilities and formed the basis for Burt Hill’s final space needs recommendations. This analysis focused on learning environment (e.g. classrooms and class labs) utilization, full time equivalent (FTE) student capacity, non-learning environment benchmarking, and recommended space needs. Burt Hill reviewed the UMW Office of Institutional Research for existing space use and compared it to data from the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV) Programming Standards, the Society of College and University Planners (SCUP), and UMW’s peer institutions. Burt Hill recommended changes and or updates to the comparable standards based on experience with similar facilities planning. Chapter 5 explores recommendations for classroom space standards. It is anticipated that UMW will grow to 4,500 FTE students by 2019. Based upon the findings of the utilization report, the University can support an additional 365 students before optimum academic utilization levels are reached. However, there will be a shortage of available academic space once enrollment reaches 4,500. It is recommended that UMW provide new academic, student life, and administrative space in order to accommodate this growth. The analysis provided in Chapter 5 was completed by reviewing departmental FTE per building. Departmental FTE is representative of credits awarded in that discipline and does not equal the majors in that department. For example, sciences (Jepson Hall) currently represent 507.5 FTEs. If every learning environment in Jepson were optimized and met target levels for time use and station occupancy, the sciences could support an additional 365 FTEs within the current space inventory. However, changes to Jepson’s current use of space would have to be made on many levels to achieve this growth. Changes in culture, such as better use of the labs across disciplines and spreading instructional lab needs across rooms to increase individual lab usage, would be required. The science curriculum would also require evaluation to maximize existing room use. A curriculum evaluation may shed light on opportunities for efficiency but will not account for dramatic FTE increases alone.

Chapter 5 illustrates how replicating this space evaluation process for the other academic departments could accommodate a growth of roughly 1,600 FTE students in the existing facilities. It also reviews in more detail the cultural changes that would be required, such as the ability to schedule courses across departments and buildings. Any increase in FTE has a direct relationship with overall head count. Thus, an additional 365 FTE equals approximately 400 more enrolled students, which impacts other areas of the University. Roughly 25 more faculty offices would be required to support the additional students, as well as over 300 dormitory beds, 600 dining hall seats, new structured parking opportunities, and a significant increase to campus administration services. Even though the instructional spaces can support significantly more students, the current limitations of existing auxiliary space at the University will make any growth challenging. Overall, utilization rates at UMW are representative of most four-year public state institutions when all factors are considered, though most rooms do not generally meet the SCHEV targets for utilization - a combination of time used and seats occupied. This finding indicates the University can support a small increase in students within the current learning environment inventory.

STEP IV - REVIEWING DESIGN ALTERNATIVES

As a result of the academic utilization study, peer benchmarking, walkthroughs, campus meetings, and data analysis, Burt Hill determined there is a need for a small increase in academic space on the Fredericksburg campus to accommodate growth for 4,500 FTE students. In addition, the 2009 Strategic Plan’s recommendation for the creation of a new College of Business and College of Education will require additional academic space to accommodate these programs. Academic departmental space requires modest expansions to accommodate growth. This growth can be accommodated within the University’s existing building assets, with the exception of Jepson Hall, which requires a building addition. The Steering Committee was provided with several concept alternatives exploring different methods of implementation. Burt Hill presented several design iterations that each contained a different master plan driver as well as academic recommendations that equally emphasized student life and residential recommendations. Multiple campus growth options were also reviewed to ensure that every potential issue was understood. The Steering Committee weighed the design alternatives to arrive at the optimum solution to meet the goals of the Strategic Plan. Finally, Burt Hill presented The Master Plan recommendations to the University at-large in the form of open forums and digital download for public comment.

STEP V - A FINAL RECOMMENDATION

The final recommendations illustrated in Chapter 7 suggest the highest and best use solutions to the primary needs of both Fredericksburg and Stafford campuses in order to achieve the goals set forth in the Strategic Plan, as well as bring the existing facilities up to a good or excellent condition. The Master Plan makes recommendations that will enhance the small liberal arts experience on the Fredericksburg campus, and provide for the anticipated growth of the Stafford Campus. The renovation of eight residence halls will enhance the on-campus student experience and provide a strengthened sense of community. Construction of five new residence halls, all in place of existing halls in poor condition, will provide the space needed to accommodate enrollment growth within a 15 year period. A performing arts center will provide a state-of-the-art venue for the University and enhanced collaboration with the Fredericksburg community. Extending the Fredericksburg campus walk and creating a pedestrian bridge across William Street will provide a connection between the main campus and the University Apartments and make the daily crossing of William Street safer for students. A new Campus Center and Board Dining facility will bring new life to and strengthen the heart of campus, unite and centralize student life functions and services that are currently scattered across the campus, and provide “right-sized” dining functions. An addition will be provided to Jepson Hall to accommodate growth in the sciences. Finally, although the existing space is adequate for current enrollment, this plan has outlined a location for a future building should the need for additional space arise.

CONNECTING THE DOTS The 2009 University of Mary Washington Strategic Plan (the Strategic Plan) outlines a series of academic and strategic objectives to be achieved or initiated between 2009 and 2014. The Strategic Plan is a plan for the strategy, direction, decision making, and allocation of resources to pursue the University’s strategic mission as it relates to people, capital, accomplishments, and performance. The University of Mary Washington Comprehensive Master Plan (the Master Plan) is a roadmap for the physical development of the University, providing a prioritization of projects within a ten-year period. More importantly, it must follow the guidelines set forth in the Strategic Plan approved by the Board of Visitors on November 20, 2009. Burt Hill has identified several objectives of the Strategic Plan that, along with the Master Plan, aid in strategically transforming the University of Mary Washington as well as identifying opportunities to reinforce progressive learning through improvements to the physical environment.

E N H A N C I N G A N D P R O M OT I N G AC A D E M I C E XC E L L E N C E UMW has made a commitment to offer high quality, rigorous academic programs that prepare students for advanced study, furthering professional development, research, leadership, and service to the region. The development of the Colleges of Education (COE) and Business (COB) are two examples of this commitment. The plan outlined in this document outlines several options for providing the space required to support these new programs, including an additional 30,000 net square feet as a result of renovating Woodard Campus Center for academic space. The renovation of Woodard Hall could also allow the building to serve as a flagship building for the COB.

Another goal of the Strategic and Master Plans is to continue fostering development opportunities for the College of Arts and Sciences. By providing opportunities for students, faculty, staff, and the community to experience the cultural qualities the University will encourage growth in the visual and performing arts throughout the region. A new Arts Center would celebrate the University’s distinctive approach to the arts and serve as a cultural asset for the Fredericksburg campus as well as the community. The Master Plan team explored two potential sites for such a facility: the first at William Street and Sunken Road and the second as an addition / renovation to the existing Arts Complex. This Master Plan provides a baseline option that requires further exploration and a comprehensive programing study. Support of the University’s fastest growing programs in the physical and biological sciences will continue to prepare students for future careers in these areas. An addition to Jepson Hall is a baseline solution to enhancing these programs. An addition could offer the multi-purpose lab, research and additional office spaces needed to support the growth of academic programs, while also offering opportunities to enhance the educational capacity and technological advancement of the existing facility.

C R E AT I N G A C O L L A B O R AT I V E S T U D E N T E X P E R I E N C E UMW recognizes that blending curricular and co-curricular learning environments within a student-centered environment are a high priority. A primary goal of the UMW Strategic Plan is to enhance the quality of student life and identify, design, and create spaces on both campuses that better serve the social, study, and meeting needs of students. Many at the University feel strongly that there is a need for a new, single, campus center building rather than many student-centered precincts throughout campus. The goal of this new building would be to combine the existing functions of Woodard with the functions of Seacobeck, as well as to house student life staff (currently in Tyler House), student organizations (currently in Seacobeck), residence life (currently in Marye House), and a Multicultural suite (currently in Lee Hall) under one roof. A new building would offer greater flexibility in design; centrally located student activities, organizations, and dining; and a larger dining seat capacity within a single building. This building type naturally wants to be near the center of campus. Placing a new student center / board dining on the existing Chandler Hall site is an ideal option that offers many benefits, including a direct connection to Ball Circle, greater transparency between the building and College Avenue adding to the “see and be seen” quality of a campus center, and provides an ideal location for an impressive new campus gateway to attract the many people that travel along that artery. The location along College Avenue also opens the building up for community use, which is highly encouraged throughout the objectives of the Strategic Plan. The primary goal of this facility is to provide students with more space for organizations, offices, and dining to better service their needs.

ENHANCE REGIONAL ENGAGEMENT The University of Mary Washington’s Stafford Campus is a one example of its commitment to regional collaboration and engagement. Continuing to provide leadership and service regionally will create valuable experiences and opportunities for students and contribute to the area’s economy.

In addition to accommodating future academic growth on the Stafford campus, the Master Plan outlines other development opportunities that exist within the University’s existing landholdings. The University of Mary Washington campuses are located within the DC / Baltimore Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). The University and the University of Mary Washington Foundation’s current land holdings lie in both the City of Fredericksburg and Stafford County. Despite current economic conditions, Fredericksburg has grown into a DC bedroom community with increasing pressure from suburban sprawl, and the city’s population is expected to continue to grow, offering many opportunities and alternatives for regional engagement. Stafford County is likely to see continued population growth, and eventually there will be increased demand for housing. With its proximity to DC and Richmond, Virginia, Stafford County is an attractive commercial location because of its affordability; and the county is supportive of expanding UMW’s Stafford campus, having highlighted the Foundation’s properties as institutional uses in their land use mapping. All of these factors support collaborative solutions between the region and the University in the future.

STRENGTHEN THE IMAGE AND RECOGNITION OF UMW The University of Mary Washington’s Fredericksburg campus has been nationally recognized as one of the nation’s best small public liberal arts colleges. The University expresses a strong desire to uphold this reputation, enhance, and fortify this reputation. After engaging the University and community in a self assessment of the priorities and vision for its physical facilities, it was determined that future development of the Fredericksburg campus should be based upon minimal enrollment growth over a ten-year period. It was also decided that this development should focus on enhancing the small liberal arts experience. Likewise, development on the Stafford campus should be encouraged to support regional growth. The plan outlined in this document will help meet the University’s needs for physical space, preserve its most memorable buildings and landscapes, and enhance the beauty and utility of the campus. The plan weaves the University’s past, present, and future into a more integrated system of landscape and buildings that are explicitly representative of the University’s historic, small town image.

A M O R E S U S TA I N A B L E C U LT U R E The University has a considerable number of sustainability initiatives underway or in planning phases. A Sustainability Committee has been appointed and has made the commitment to encourage and enhance sustainable practices across the institution. The concept of sustainability involves a thoughtful measure of resources consumed and wastes emitted, and consideration of the long-term effects of these on the Earth’s systems and human health. University sustainability initiatives should include a broad range of actions including energy use, supply, and distribution; material supply and disposal; food supply; water supply and disposal; building design and construction, including mechanical systems; transportation; vegetation and landscape; and education, research, and outreach.

PLANNED PROJECTS E X E C U T I V E

S U M M A R Y

The following proposed projects represent the primary recommendations of the Master Plan that aid in the physical manifestation of the University’s Strategic Plan. The recommendations are the result of regular meetings with the Steering Committee, an understanding of the University’s existing physical attributes, the need for learning and non-learning space as a result of current utilization and anticipated growth, and the objectives of the Strategic Plan. These recommendations will help guide the University to becoming the best public liberal arts institution in the United States. The following projects have been developed to respect the existing University’s scale, architectural character, and open space, while improving accessibility, program efficiency, and flexibility for ever-evolving pedagogies.

JEPSON HALL The Steering Committee defined an addition to Jepson Hall as a high priority to support the fast growing physical and biological science programs. This four-story addition will house classrooms on the first floor, multipurpose labs on the second, labs and classrooms on the third, and faculty offices and meeting rooms on the fourth floor. Small, surgical walkways will need to be made to connect the existing interior corridors with the new addition. Several small lab storage spaces will need to be taken offline to accommodate this connector; however, the spaces will be relocated adjacent to the new connector or within the new addition.

COLLEGE OF BUSINESS Since there are little, if any, on-campus locations for potential new buildings to be constructed, the repurposing of existing buildings is inevitable. The creation of a new campus center on the existing Chandler Hall site allows Woodard to be renovated and repurposed as the College of Business.

CAMPUS CENTER Transformational projects such as the new Campus Center will create a new campus gateway along College Avenue and provide an enhanced facility for all student life as well as centralized board dining functions. A new four-story brick and cast stone structure will replace the existing Chandler Hall to provide a centrally located student life hub featuring right-sized retail and board dining functions, student organizations and student life suites, office space, meeting rooms, ballroom, spirit store, and lounge space. In order to initiate this project, Business and Psychology Departments will have to be temporarily relocated. A plan for this relocation is provided in Chapter 7. Site work will feature plazas off College Avenue and Ball Circle, potential for a rain garden, and a more functional loading dock. SEACOBECK HALL Since campus dining functions will be relocated within the new Campus Center, options for repuposing or reprogramming Seacobeck Hall require further exploration.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

MERCER HALL RENOVATION The renovation of and addition to Mercer Hall is a high-priority project that will hinge on the razing of Chandler Hall to construct the new Campus Center. Located within close proximity to Palmieri Plaza, Mercer Hall has the potential to serve as a flagship building for the Psychology Department. RENEWAL OF EXISTING ACADEMIC BUILDINGS The renewal of existing academic buildings is an important component of the Master Plan as well. Phased renovations in Goolrick, duPont, Pollard, Melchers, and Trinkle Halls are needed to maintain the integrity of these buildings and their efficient operation for future use. The plan will also help meet the University’s needs for physical space, preserve its most memorable buildings and landscapes, and enhance the beauty and utility of the Fredericksburg Campus.

JEFFERSON SQUARE Creating combinations of uses within existing precincts and within buildings that support UMW as an integrated community are goals of both the Master and Strategic Plans. Redeveloping and rejuvenating Jefferson Square is a perfect opportunity for this type of transformation. Replacing Bushnell Hall with a building whose program focuses on celebrating the connections between living and learning would allow for the creation of an honors college or other featured academic experience. Creating these unique academic environments also aids in fulfilling the challenges put forth in the Strategic Plan to promote co-educational development opportunities.

Providing a new academic quad surrounded by a series of new appropriately scaled residence halls toward the south end of Jefferson Square will instill a renewed sense of community while meeting the University’s need for future residential bed space. It will also reclaim and preserve the iconic campus green space of Jefferson Square. R E V I TA L I Z I N G T H E A R T S One of the challenges of this Master Plan has been to mediate between the need to add new facilities and the need to maintain and support existing buildings. Several programming meetings with the Theater, Dance, Music, Studio Art, and Art History Departments as well as UMW administration led to the creation of department-specific programs establishing future space needs. All departments accepted the programs and chose two possible options for physical growth: (1) renovation of the existing Arts Complex with a modern “courtyard” in-fill, or (2) design of a new building for Theater, Dance, and Music Departments on Sunken Road and William Street and moving Studio Art and Art History Departments to renovated space in Pollard and duPont Halls. A more detailed technical study is recommended and should reflect a more detailed analysis of spatial relationships and program needs based on the available budget.

T H E S TA F F O R D C A M P U S The University of Mary Washington Stafford campus has proven to be a valuable asset in providing educational opportunities to the residents of Stafford County as well as programs for graduate and professional studies. The county anticipates continued population growth, and as such, there will be increased demand for professional educational development. Although the current buildings located on the Stafford campus are sufficient to support current needs, this plan has identified a potential location for a future building should the need for additional space arise. The site identified will provide UMW with the opportunity to transform the Stafford campus into a more welcoming academic village.

THE SIMPSON LIBRARY A renovation of the Simpson Library is also recommended as it will provide an enhanced center for teaching and learning complete with group study rooms, enhanced research and special collection areas, and varied groups of comfortable seating throughout the building. The renovation will consist of cosmetic upgrades as well as minor reconfigurations of existing interior spaces to accommodate the needs of a learning commons. The addition of the Information Technology Convergence Center to the Simpson Library should accentuate the need for as well as inform the renovation of the library. It is also recommended that a study be completed to review the structural integrity of the building’s exterior masonry construction. Cracks in the exterior masonry walls were visible after the earthquake that effected the area in August of 2011.

PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE A unique quality of the UMW Fredericksburg campus is the strong pedestrian connections that have evolved between buildings and exterior spaces. As the campus continues to grow in a linear fashion (University Apartments to the south, Eagle Village to the north), it is important to continue to maintain these pedestrian connections and keep vehicular traffic flow along the perimeter of the campus. Creating a pedestrian bridge between the new development around Jefferson Square and the renovated University Apartments will extend the Campus Walk while creating a pedestrian-friendly link across William Street .

PARKING Parking availability, although seen as lacking by many constituents, is a compromise the University has had to make to maintain the pedestrian qualities of the Fredericksburg campus. The study documented in this report indicates the Fredericksburg campus provides adequate parking supply to meet current parking occupancy needs. However, there are still parking related issues along the surrounding residential neighborhoods streets, and the inadequacy of oncampus parking supply within the campus core area. These issues, along with projected future enrollment increases, warrant the construction of structured parking along College Avenue. A new parking structure in this location would also provide an opportunity to relocate the University Police to a more centralized and accessible location along College Avenue. INFRASTRUCTURE & DEFERRED MAINTENANCE In addition to these transformational projects, campus-wide recommendations to improve accessibility, life safety, building condition, landscape, and campus infrastructure on both campuses have been addressed. THE UMW HISTORIC PRESERVATION PLAN The Burt Hill team developed this Master Plan to respond to UMW’s growing need for physical space. Upon its completion, UMW’s Historic Preservation Plan should also inform the recommendations within this document. Our hope, as the University evolves over the next decade, is that both plans will inform physical development to complement a highly progressive, historically unique, and ambitious liberal arts institution.

1900 The University of Mary Washington was founded in 1908 as the State Normal and Industrial School for Women in Fredericksburg, Virginia. It became known as the State Teachers College at Fredericksburg from 1924 until1938, when it was renamed Mary Washington College, after Mary Ball Washington, the mother of George Washington. This was also when the Institution began developing into a strong liberal arts school for women. It became associated with the University of Virginia in 1944 as its Women’s College, supplying an undergraduate education in the arts and sciences. In 1970, due to federal legislation, the Institution transitioned from an all-women’s institution to coeducational, leading to its recognition in 1972 as a separate state supported co-educational institution by the Virginal General Assembly. A 2003 vote by the Board of Visitors led to a final name change for the college, and on July 1, 2004, the name was officially changed to the University of Mary Washington, encompassing both the Fredericksburg and Stafford campuses.

1920

The University of Mary Washington is currently comprised of two campuses: the Fredericksburg campus, which houses the undergraduate programs of the College of Arts and Sciences, and the Stafford campus, which encompasses the College of Graduate and Professional Studies. The University is also in the process of developing a third campus at Dahlgren that will have programs specializing in training military personnel and members of the community. Today, the University of Mary Washington is the only co-educational institution named after a secular woman. On the Fredericksburg campus there are also several buildings named after women in American history. Willard Hall is named after Frances Willard who helped establish the Women’s Christian Temperance Union and was a crusader of women’s rights. Lee Hall honors Ann Carter Lee, the mother of Robert E. Lee; Mason Hall is named after Mary Sable Mason, the mother of George Mason; and Randolph Hall is named after Martha Jefferson Randolph, a daughter of Thomas Jefferson. These three buildings, along with almost all of the other buildings on campus, were built in the Georgian style of architecture. Other defining characteristics of the Fredericksburg campus are the open spaces, mature trees, and magnificent landscape.

The location of the Fredericksburg campus on Marye’s Heights was selected due to the historical significance of the area. The site was originally part of the Seacobeck Native American Village and a prominent part of the Battle of Fredericksburg. Ground-breaking of the first building on the campus, originally Russell Hall and later renamed Monroe Hall, occurred on December 14, 1909. During this same time, the first dormitory, Willard Hall, was also constructed. Both buildings were scheduled to be completed for the school opening in the fall of 1911. In 1916, due to increased enrollment, a second dormitory Virginia Hall, was opened. In 1929, Chandler Hall, which was originally known as the Campus Training School for Teachers, was completed. The first part of Ann Carter Lee Hall was dedicated in 1928 and housed an indoor swimming pool. Additional buildings continued to be constructed during the Great Depression in spite of the economic troubles at the time. Seacobeck Hall, the much needed dining hall, opened in 1931, and three additional dormitories – Ball, Madison, and Curtis Halls – were completed in 1935. George Washington Hall was built in 1939 to house all of the administrative offices, along with Dodd Auditorium, an elegant setting for lectures and performances. Westmoreland Hall, an additional dormitory named in honor of Westmoreland County, Virginia, was also built in 1939 The last building built during this period was the original library, Trinkle Hall, which was completed in 1941.

Construction on the campus slowed down during World War II but quickly ramped back up with the addition of seven buildings during the 1950s, including Mercer Hall (1950), which was the infirmary; Combs Hall (1959), an academic building; and the Fine Arts Complex that included duPont, Melchers, and Pollard Halls (1952). Mason (1954), Randolph (1954), and Bushnell Halls (1959), three additional dormitories, were also constructed during this decade. The 1960s saw construction on the campus of four new buildings, including thee residence Halls (Marshall - 1960, Russell - 1965, and Jefferson - 1967) and the gymnasium (Goolrick Hall - 1969). Also in the early 1960s, the Virginia General Assembly authorized Mary Washington to acquire administrative duties of Belmont Estate, the home, gallery, and gardens of artist Gari Melcher, as well as the James Monroe Law Office, Museum, and Memorial Library.

Three additional dorms were also constructed at this time: South (1988), Alvey (1990), and Arrington Halls (1993). Another major improvement to the Institution occurred in 1986 when Campus Drive was closed to vehicular traffic and became Campus Walk, a path traveling along the entire length of the campus for pedestrians only.

In 1999, the Institution opened the James Monroe Center in nearby Stafford County to meet the need for graduate and professional studies in the expanding surrounding communities. The name was changed in 2004 to the College of Graduate and Professional Studies, which still offers courses that are convenient for non-traditional and adult students. A second building was built on the Stafford campus in 2007, containing a large open meeting space for college and community venues. The college currently offers four degrees: Bachelor of Professional Studies, Master of Education, Master of Business Administration, and Master of Science Management Information Systems.

SUMMARY Burt Hill conducted a total of 27 focus group interviews at the University of Mary Washington Fredericksburg and Stafford campuses in which student, faculty and staff volunteers, or administrative leaders were asked about their thoughts and opinions regarding the physical characteristics of the existing campuses. Questions were asked in an interactive group setting where participants were free to talk with other group members. Group discussions produce data and insights that tend to be overlooked in other formats. The comments here are transcribed directly from conversations held during the focus group meetings. In addition to these forums, 7 decision making steering committee meetings were held; 1060 student, 300 faculty and staff, and 1135 alumni questionnaires were issued and reviewed; and 52 building walkthroughs were conducted, totaling in approximately 522,000 net residential and 813,000 academic, nonresidential, and administrative square footage assessed. In addition to these information gathering exercises, Burt Hill assessed 117 classrooms and class labs to determine their ideal utilization rates and capacity. Based on the feedback Burt Hill received during the focus groups and from the on-line surveys, the firm was able to identify the following common thread issues that will help guide the Master Plan:

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON

CHARACTERISTICS

CORE CURRICULUM THEMES The University of Mary Washington is best known for its academic excellence and strong connection between students and faculty. Except for the occasional large orientation class of 100 students or more, students typically receive a great deal of personal attention in classes that are between 15 and 22 students. The smaller class size allows professors to get to know their students and promotes an intimate community that is vital at UMW.

Another tradition that UMW prides itself on is the Honor System. This system, which is completely run by members of the student body, creates a sense of trust and mutual respect on campus. UMW is conveniently located in between both District of Columbia and Richmond, Virginia. This location provides students with a great opportunity to see guest lecturers, cultural shows, and the arts. There is also a strong gallery and museum presence created on and around the Fredericksburg campus by the Ridderhof Martin Gallery, the James Monroe Museum, and Gari Melchers Home and Studio at Belmont. ACADEMICS The academic curriculum at the UMW offers more than 30 majors and 40 programs of study. Many students double major. If a student has an original academic path in mind, they are encouraged to create their own major by combining coursework and pursuits from different disciplines.

In order to stay true to its liberal arts roots, UMW ensures that students get broad exposure to a range of disciplines and methods of academic inquiry. General education requirements provide the opportunity to explore art, history, communication, science, human behavior, global awareness, and other areas of study. Students also learn how these fields fit together and influence one another, allowing them to make connections vital for promoting responsible decision making. In addition to the $280,000 the University spends annually to support student research and independent projects, UMW provides students with the opportunity to study abroad in over eight countries. The learning process is further enhanced by the efforts and ability of UMW

faculty. Professors are selected not simply for their deep knowledge of and experience in the subjects they teach, but for their commitment to learning. Faculty are decorated scholars, Pulitzer Prize winners, and members of the community who take a hands-on approach to teaching and learning. STUDENT LIFE There are more than 100 clubs and organizations at UMW’s undergraduate campus in Fredericksburg, spanning educational, social, cultural, religious, recreational, political, and community service interests. From the arts to the Baptist Student Union, students have ample opportunity to get involved and enhance student life at Mary Washington. The Community Outreach and Resources Office, also known as COAR, allows students the opportunity to volunteer at a number of community agencies including Habitat for Humanity.

Student life at UMW is also complimented by a strong arts, theater, and dance program. Programs enable students to gain experience in acting, directing, design, management, or technology, giving students the ability to exercise their creative side. With 23 varsity sports, a dozen club sports, and facilities to suit every interest, including a new convocation center, fitness center, and indoor tennis facility, UMW’s athletic programs offer students the opportunity to lead active lifestyles. The University’s proximity to downtown Fredericksburg is a quality that makes UMW extremely unique. Both a historic and contemporary city, Fredericksburg and its community are one of the fastest growing in Virginia and have the advantage of easy access to DC and Richmond. Due to that proximity students are able to take advantage of internships, research excursions, and weekend road trips.

CAMPUS SERVICES UMW’s finest physical quality is the natural beauty of its Fredericksburg campus. The scenic Campus Walk and historic architecture set within a lush landscape are assets the University is proud of. Resource packed learning environments are scattered throughout the Fredericksburg campus landscape and serve as tools to enrich the lives of those who work, and study at or visit the Fredericksburg campus.

The Simpson Library contains nearly 367,000 print volumes, 42,000 electronic books, and millions of magazines, newspapers, journals, maps, and government documents. The Jepson Science Center offers students state-of-the-art laboratories and technology to support contemporary sciences study and research. The Center for Historic Preservation is a unique program that serves as a resource for preservation education and activities for the campus and the nation. The Leidecker Center for Asian Studies supports interdisciplinary study of Asia as well as academic and cultural exchange. The Ridderhof Martin and duPont Galleries are museum-quality exhibition spaces that showcase work across times, culture and genres. UMW has a growing multicultural community supported by the James Farmer Multicultural Center, a resource that promotes cultural awareness on campus and in the community.

The Fredericksburg campus is unique from many other campuses in that its buildings aren’t grouped by function, but seemingly scattered in an unorganized fashion along a central organizing element, Campus Walk. However, most residential buildings are offset from Campus Walk, while academic structures are more directly connected, illustrating there is a subtle order to how the campus has evolved that should be respected.

C A L C U L A T I O N S The existing academic department square footage calculations were formulated to estimate space needs over time. A combination of university room data, scheduling data, and virtual modeling yielded existing department square footage by building. The department square footage totals are generated based on the sum of department office, class lab, and other department specific spaces. In Chapter 7 - Recommendations, these existing square footages are multiplied by a growth factor which assumes uniform growth over a period a decade to determine future space needs by department. Although departmental growth is hardly ever uniform, space allocations can be made for master planning purposes and then, if needed, reassigned to different departments as growth occurs over the 10 - 15-year period this plan covers.

CHAPTER 3 C O N D I T I O N S

This section analyzes the University of Mary Washington’s physical assets, including its infrastructure, utilities, and buildings. This analysis is intended to inform the Master Plan as to whether buildings should be renovated, repurposed, or razed. Burt Hill utilized the 2007 FICAS Asset Detail Report* as the basis of the current deferred maintenance, along with Burt Hill’s building walkthroughs that occurred in November 2009. *UMW FICAS Asset Detail Report, Printed July 28, 2009 © 1998-2009 VFA, Inc.

ATHLETIC FIELD

As the building condition map to the left indicates, many of these structures, mostly larger academic buildings and residence halls, are in poor condition. This is a common assessment experienced by many universities who took root rapidly in the mid-1900s.

ATHLETIC FIELDS

These issues can be resolved by first prioritizing which buildings continue to maintain their intended highest and best use, then deciding which buildings warrant demolition, renovation, or new construction, and lastly, organizing a phased implementation of these projects. These issues are discussed further in Chapter 7 - Recommendations PHYSICAL PLANT BUILDING

The University of Mary Washington is characterized by a combination of beautifully proportioned Georgian structures as well as its prominent location adjacent to historic downtown Fredericksburg. In 2007, a building conditions assessment was performed, and it provided the base data for this graphic. The assessment calculated a Facilities Condition Index (FCI) for each building under University ownership at that time. The FCI was calculated by taking the value of deferred maintenance projects and dividing it by the overall replacement value by building. Throughout this document, a five-point color rating scale is used to denote various conditions of the building elements / characteristics. A rating of “NR” (not rated) is shown for buildings that do not have an FCI rating or were not part of the original study. Buildings that were not rated are shown in gray.

BUILDING CONDITION SCORE

C O LO R R AT I N G S Y S T E M

C A L C U L A T I O N S The building score is the value of the deferred maintenance projects divided by the overall replacement value of the building.

C O L O R R A T I N G S C A L E Throughout this document, a five point color rating scale was used to denote various conditions of the building elements / characteristics. A score of greater than .41 would indicate the building is in poor condition and the University should consider removing the building from the campus inventory. A score of .00 would indicate the building is in excellent condition. The Building Condition Key graphic (shown below) uses this scale on the category icon (the checkmark), which also ties in with the corresponding site plans. A rating of “NR” (not rated) will be shown for buildings that do not have an FCI rating.

As for building mechanical infrastructure, the heat exchanger is in need of shell and tube renewal and the heat pumps are aged and corroded. Although the HVAC equipment is aged in general, the exhaust systems in the toilet rooms within Marshall are in particularly poor condition. Sufficient ventilation should also be provided in the laundry, janitorial, and electric rooms.

Marshall contains an electrical distribution system and wiring that is original to the building and is the cause of most electrical complications. In order to maintain optimum energy efficiency, the system should be re-wired and lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building.

Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system, fire alarm devices, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency lighting and power systems.

BUILDING SUMMARY Marshall Hall, named for Mary Marshall, the wife of U.S. Chief Justice John Marshall, houses approximately 147 upperclass men and women. At the bottom of “the hill” on the south end of campus, Marshall houses students in double and triple occupancy suites. Located next to Russell Hall and behind Bushnell Hall, Marshall Hall is accessible by Sunken Road. The laundry room is located on the east wing of the basement floor along with the vending machines. Marshall also has several study lounges on the first, second, and third floors. The second floor lounge features a balcony.

According to the July 2009 Asset Detail Report the hazardous asbestoscontaining-materials should be safely removed and replaced with clean nonhazardous materials.

B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Although minor modifications have been made to help the building function throughout the years, the building, like many of the other residence halls, is in relatively poor condition. The adhered membrane single ply roofing is in poor condition. There appears to be ponding water on the roof as well. The exterior doors, wood windows, and rainwater drainage system are beyond their useful lives. The hydraulic freight / passenger elevator is also in poor condition. Marshall’s oval entryway attempts to create a welcoming and comfortable entry lounge area, yet it lacks light and flexible furniture. Although the ample natural light in the main parlor makes for a successful lounge space, the interior finishes and furnishings appear dated and uninviting.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y George Washington Hall, named for the first President of the United States and son of Mary Washington, flanks Double Drive and the Main Entry to the Fredericksburg campus. The four-level building includes a full basement foundation and the 1500-seat Dodd Auditorium, which is home to the annual Fredericksburg Forum and various cultural events sponsored by the University and regional arts groups. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N George Washington Hall is currently undergoing a small renovation to several of its office spaces, yet remains in poor to fair condition in terms of overall building and infrastructure. The brick clad exterior walls, as well as the building gutters and downspouts, are in need of replacement. Exterior door and wood window assemblies are beyond their useful life and should also be replaced. Interior finishes and fixtures, including ACT, VCT, carpet, kitchen sinks and casework, concrete and wood floors, ceramic tiles on walls, painted plaster ceilings, drinking fountains, restroom fittings and fixtures, light fixtures, and epoxy flooring, are dated and in some cases deteriorating. Renovating the interior two-hour fire-rated wall assemblies is also recommended. A renovation in the mid-1980s outfitted the building with air-conditioning; however, the room currently being used as the data center is in need of a new cooling unit to keep up with current demand. The domestic hot water heater is deteriorating and should be replaced. Consideration should also be given UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Electrical service distribution and switchgears should be renewed. In order to maintain optimum efficiency and save power, lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building. The existing traction elevator is in poor yet working condition. With the current data center located in the basement of George Washington Hall, technology seems to be fairly good in the building overall; however, emergency power is an issue for the data center itself. Currently there is insufficient infrastructure in place to supply emergency power for more than 30 percent of the data on campus. Several meeting rooms lack installed multimedia and video conferencing technology, though this technology is available upon request through the use of media-carts.

C O D E C O M P L I A N C E A N D A C C E S S I B I L I T Y The building is made wheelchair accessible by an exterior ramp at the Double Drive entryway. George Washington Hall is missing emergency egress lighting required to comply with current codes; the existing egress lighting is not compliant. Additional exit signs should be installed as well to maintain the integrity of the building. Although “grandfathered” compliant, the building lacks a fire sprinkler system.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y The Anne Fairfax House, or Fairfax, is a twostory structure with a full basement built in 1922. The building has offices and bathrooms on both floors and a kitchen on the first floor. Fairfax is one of the three white houses along the College Avenue side of the campus and serves as the location of the Office of Human Resources. Despite the aesthetic and spacious interior of Fairfax, the building no longer adequately suits current HR functions. BUILDING CONDITION Being a former residence makes Fairfax an awkward yet unique office building, and many of the same problems that exist in the other white houses exist in Fairfax as well. The exterior doors and wood windows are beyond their useful lives. The existing porch structure on the College Avenue side is damaged and showing signs of age. The wood exterior wall material is also in poor condition. The gutters appear to be sloping in the wrong direction and could cause stormwater drainage issues in the future. The foundation walls appear to be in poor condition. Interior finishes, including sheet vinyl flooring, painted walls, plaster ceilings, interior doors, and VCT, are in poor condition and should be considered for replacement. The existing electric water heater should be replaced. Plumbing fixtures, such as the bathtub on the second floor, are abandoned and should be removed. The cast iron sanitary waste pipe is in poor condition as well.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Built in 1925, the Brent House is a threestory structure with a full basement. Brent was purchased in 1944 for $50,000 and, at the time, occupied a commanding site overlooking downtown Fredericksburg. It was named Brent House in honor of Margaret Brent, a Catholic Englishwoman who came to America to escape persecution. Originally a residence hall, Brent currently houses offices and bathrooms on each floor, a kitchen on the first floor, and utilities and workshops in the basement. Brent is a highly utilized building just off the south side of Double Drive.

Brent appears to have been renovated in recent years to address some of its many fire and accessibility code violations. However, this did not address all of the deferred maintenance issues within the building, such as the poor condition of the existing built up roof over what would be the “garage” portion of the building.

be considered for immediate replacement. HVAC controls and instrumentation need to be replaced along with the general building and restroom exhaust distribution systems, which are currently causing mold issues in many areas of the building. The current through-wall heat and AC systems are dated and should be removed. Although a rooftop AC system was planned, the installation was never finished. These items should be addressed as priorities if the building is to continue to function as a classroom building.

Although additional technology would always be beneficial to students in Chandler, the technology seems have been installed recently and is in working condition. Except for Room 206, all classrooms have projector technology.

CODE COMPLIANCE & ACCESSIBILITY Currently, Chandler does not meet current ADA standards for accessibility and directional signage. Attempts have been made to make the building accessible to address current needs, such as the ramp into the College Avenue side of the building; however the public toilet rooms, drinking fountains, door hardware, and areas of refuge in the stairwells are just a few examples of non-compliance in the building. The exit sign and fire alarm system are in need of renewal.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Located on Jefferson Square, Combs Hall features academic classrooms, labs, lecture halls, and faculty offices. Combs Hall is named after former University president Morgan Combs and, as a result of a 2003 renovation, has evolved from a science and mathematics to its current functions. Overall, the building is the one in the best condition compared with the other buildings on campus, featuring state-of-the-art instructional technology in every classroom. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N This four-level facility, including a full basement foundation, was renovated in 2003 and is in excellent condition. The exterior wood trim is constantly in need of maintenance and should be replaced. The roof has not been modified since 1996 and should be inspected for signs of aging and disrepair. Interior finishes, such as carpeting, VCT, aged concrete, and painted finishes, are worn and beyond their useful life.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Excess humidity, a result of the imbalanced HVAC system, needs to be corrected as it may be unhealthy. The perimeter hot and chilled water distribution units and system are aged and in need of immediate attention. Exhaust fans should be installed to properly ventilate the spaces the Historic Preservation Programs uses for conservation labs. Occupancy sensors should be installed to maintain basic operation of the existing lighting and branch wiring in the building. The telephone system is dated and should be rewired or replaced.

CODE COMPLIANCE & ACCESSIBILITY Combs Hall has a wheelchair ramp in the rear, facing the green and handicapped parking spaces are near the ramp. While Combs Hall does not meet current ADA standards for accessibility and directional signage, the egress stairs, elevator, and bathrooms are ADA compliant. The fire alarm system, exit signs, and emergency egress lights are beyond their useful life.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y DuPont Hall contains a 150-seat and small “black box” theaters, stage, workrooms, dressing rooms, general classrooms, faculty offices, and an art gallery displaying student and faculty studio works. DuPont is currently undergoing a partial renovation of the Klein Theatre and surrounding work and support spaces. BUILDING CONDITION Located on the northwestern side of campus, duPont Hall is a three-level brick-clad building. Its location next to Pollard and Melchers Halls, creates a cluster of fine and performing arts buildings. The adhered and ballasted single-ply membrane roofing systems are in need of replacement. Exterior wood windows are in poor condition and should be replaced. The stormwater drainage and sanitary waste systems are in need of immediate attention. Replacement of the carpeting, drinking fountains, utility sinks, painted finishes, and VCT are immediate needs on the interior of the building. In general, the equipment and furnishings in duPont are in poor condition and should be replaced. Although it is not an immediate need, the restroom exhaust systems should be replaced. The reciprocating air cooled renewal system is beyond its useful life. Condensate pump and domestic water distribution systems are in poor condition as well. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

CODE COMPLIANCE & ACCESSIBILITY DuPont Hall’s raised stage and service counters do not meet ADA height and accessibility requirements; this may be remedied once the current theater renovation is complete. The building also does not meet current ADA standards for directional signage. However, egress stairs, elevator, and toilet rooms are ADA compliant.

The existing chiller unit is beyond its useful life, and the central air handling unit is in poor condition as well. The duct system in Trinkle needs to be balanced and cleaned in order for the system to continue to function properly. The HVAC compressor should also be replaced to maintain integrity of the system. Standards recommend installing rooftop light and power near the mechanical equipment in those areas. Replacing incandescent lamps with compact fluorescents and insulating the attic roof would greatly improve the energy efficiency within the building. HVAC controls and instrumentation need to be replaced along with the general building and restroom exhaust distribution systems that are currently causing mold issues in many areas of the building. The heat exchanger, condensate, and heat pumps are in poor condition and beyond the point of being reliable. The cooling units in the computer labs are aged and insufficient for the needs of these rooms. In order to maintain optimum efficiency and save power, lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building. Additional lighting, natural or artificial, should be planned in Trinkle’s entry rotunda to make the entry more welcoming. Most of the classrooms in Trinkle rely on portable multimedia technology, with the exception of a few rooms that have installed technology. Some technological accessories, such as projector screens and lighting, conflict with board space and do not allow for usable learning environments.

OVERALL BUILDING RATING

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Trinkle Hall is one of the most frequently used academic buildings at UMW, housing the Departments of Computer Science; Classics, Philosophy, and Religion; Education; and Mathematics. It also houses the Leidecker Center for Asian Studies, the Center for Instructional Technology, several computer labs, 24-hour study rooms, the Multimedia Center, Help Desk, and the Student Writing Center. Prior to 1987, Trinkle Hall served as the University library. It is the only building on campus that has the original Mary Washington College seal, currently embedded in the entryway floor directly under the building’s main architectural feature - a large, copper-clad dome. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Trinkle’s time-honored copper-clad dome roof is aged and in need of significant repairs / renovation. The exterior doors and wood window assemblies are in poor condition and should be a priority for replacement, as well as to improve energy efficiency. Trinkle contains a unique structural system that was originally developed to support a 150,000 volume library. The painted finish on the exterior wood trim is worn; in some cases the wood is visibly deteriorating and in need of repainting or replacement. The existing stormwater drainage and sanitary waste systems are also in poor condition. Interior finishes and fixtures, such as the stained ACT ceilings, aged carpeting on all floors, aged carpet tiles in the basement, drinking fountains, epoxy painted finish on masonry walls, interior doors, VCT, utility sinks, painted finish walls, desks, and many of the interior furnishings, are aged and in need of replacement. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

C O D E C O M P L I A N C E & A C C E S S I B I L I T Y Although it seems most of the building code issues were addressed when the addition was completed on Trinkle, the building lacks directional signage required to meet current accessibility standards. Trinkle’s main entrance is made wheelchair accessible by an exterior entry ramp and automatic door opener, which was not working at the time of our walkthrough. The building’s floors are also accessible by means of a centrally located hydraulic passenger and freight elevator that is beyond its useful life and should be considered for replacement. There is an existing stair at the basement level that does not lead to egress, causing confusion when exiting from that level. The fire alarm, exit signs, and emergency egress lights are dated and should be replaced, in some cases installed, to maintain the integrity of the fire protection system.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Framar House, known as the International Living Center, provides students an opportunity to live with other students from many different cultures. All rooms within Framar have hardwood floors with dark wood moldings. Rooms vary in size but are generally considered very warm and inviting for students. Framar includes student apartments and bathrooms on all three floors, a kitchen and common area on the first floor, and storage and utility spaces in the basement. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Although Framar has character, it is currently overcrowded. Lounge spaces are being used as additional bed space and there appears to be a lack of bathroom and laundry space. On the exterior of the building, the brick walls, as well as exterior door and wood window assemblies are not only aged but damaged in many places and should be replaced or repaired. The foundation walls and exterior stairs are also in poor condition. On the interior, the single communal kitchen is beyond its useful life and not compliant with current accessibility standards and codes. The kitchen cabinets and sink should be replaced. The existing interior wood stair construction appears to be in need of reinforcement and does not meet current codes Other interior finishes and fixtures, including painted finishes, cast iron bathtubs, interior swinging doors, vinyl sheet, and wood flooring, are dated and showing signs of wear.

According to the July 2009 Asset Detail Report, the hazardous lead and asbestos-containing-materials should be safely removed and replaced with clean, non-hazardous materials. Although not immediately needed, the emergency battery pack, fire alarm, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency lighting and power systems.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Hamlet House is currently the home of the Phone-a-thon fundraising program. This building has had a lot of activity due its flexible office spaces. It includes offices and bathrooms on both floors, a kitchen on the first floor, and mechanical equipment in the basement. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Being a former residence makes Hamlet, similar to Tyler and Fairfax, an awkward yet quaint office building. The foundation walls, wood framed exterior wall and stair assemblies, and multi-floor superstructure appear to be in poor condition. Exterior walls of Hamlet lack sufficient insulation to meet current energy standards and codes. The exterior doors and wood windows are beyond their useful lives. The asphalt shingled roofing is aged and in poor condition. Interior finishes, including ACT, carpeting, painted wall and plaster ceiling finishes, restroom accessories and fittings, interior swinging doors, and vinyl sheet flooring, are deteriorating or in poor condition and should be considered for replacement.

The domestic electric hot water heater is aged and in need of replacement. An additional electric water heater is abandoned and should be removed. Plumbing fixtures, like the bathtub, are abandoned or being used for storage and should be removed as well. The sanitary waste system is also in poor condition.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Mary Ball Hall is an all-female, upper-class residence hall named for Mary Ball, George Washington’s mother. Centrally located, Ball Hall houses 105 women in double occupancy rooms with insuite baths. The spacious rooms also feature high ceilings and large windows with views of Ball Circle. Ball Hall features a beautiful domed rotunda lobby, complete with a spiral staircase and reminiscent of a grand palatial house, and two time-honored and restored parlors, one of which is provided with a large screen TV. The first floor has a kitchen for each wing, while the second and third floors have a centrally located kitchen and study lounge. Kitchens are equipped with a microwave, an oven, a refrigerator, cabinets, and counter space. Vending machines are located in the kitchens on the first floor. Laundry facilities are found in the basement. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Walking into Ball’s inviting entry, there is no question as to why it is the most requested female upper-class residence hall. The recently restored parlors are neat and clean and serve their purposes as lounge and study space well. The open rotunda, lounge, and flanking parlors make this one of the most successful community spaces of all residence halls on campus. However, Ball Hall has no elevator, no air conditioning, and aged infrastructure and systems. On the exterior of the building, the brick walls, exterior door and wood window assemblies, foundation walls, structural slab on grade, and multi-floor superstructure are not only aged but damaged in some places and should be replaced or repaired.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Mary Custis Hall is a coeducational residence hall named for Mary Custis, the wife of General Robert E. Lee. Custis is one of three buildings that collectively, along with Ball and Madison, comprise the TriUnits. Kitchens are centrally located on the second and third floors, and include a microwave, an oven, a refrigerator, cabinets, and counter space. Vending machines and the laundry room are located in the basement. There is also an air conditioned lounge and study area on the basement floor, complete with big screen TV. Custis is home to the First-Year Experience Program and houses 42 first-year men and women on three floors. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Centrally located, Custis has a small community atmosphere. The entry located off Ball Circle, however, lacks an inviting appeal. The lounges, located in the basement of the building, are dark and uninviting. The furnishings are uncomfortable, aged, and worn. The fourstory building also lacks an elevator. On the exterior of the building, the brick walls, exterior door and wood window assemblies, exterior concrete coping, foundation walls, structural slab on grade, and multi-floor superstructure are not only aged but damaged in some places and should be repaired as needed. The exterior doors, wood windows, column trim, and the rainwater drainage systems are rotting or beyond their useful lives.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Marye House is a white, wood frame house nestled behind the trees near Trinkle Hall. It has a long history, starting with its days as a high point during the Civil War, and is named for John Lawrence Marye, whose family was prominent in Virginia in the days before and during the Civil War. It is home to the Dean of Student Life, Judicial Affairs and Community Responsibility, and the Office of Residence Life and Housing. There are offices on the first and second floors, bathrooms on each floor, and a kitchenette on the first floor. Mechanical and electrical equipment is located in the basement. BUILDING CONDITION The Marye House appears to have been partially renovated in recent years to create more office spaces. It remains an old building with many deferred architectural maintenance issues, including missing downspouts and a need to replace vinyl siding in various places on the exterior. The concrete retaining wall also appears to be deteriorating and in need of reinforcement. The exterior doors and wood windows are beyond their useful lives. Interior finishes, including ACT, carpeting, ceramic floor and wall tile, wood flooring, kitchenette cabinets, counters, appliances and fixtures, painted walls, and vinyl sheet flooring, are aged and should be replaced. The HVAC system in Marye is in working order but aged. As with most toilet rooms on campus, the restroom exhaust is in poor condition. Upgrading the HVAC system would eliminate the need for the inefficient window AC units currently being used throughout the building. The perimeter hot and chilled water distribution units and system are aged as well. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

According to the July 2009 Asset Detail Report, the hazardous lead and asbestoscontaining-materials should be safely removed and replaced with clean, nonhazardous materials.

The condensate pump system, water heater, heat exchanger and heat pumps are aged and corroded in some places. Mason contains an electrical distribution system that is original to the building and is the cause of most of the electrical complications, including issues with general service.

Located just off Campus Walk, Mason is part of the Randolph / Mason complex. Mason, a mirror image of Randolph Hall, is home to approximately 207 students. Mason features in-suite bathrooms. The second, fourth, and fifth floors have kitchens, each including a stove, microwave, refrigerator, counter space, and cabinets. Vending machines and the laundry rooms are located on the second floor. Additionally, the second floor features a lounge with a big screen TV. Study rooms are located on the third, fourth, and fifth floors. Mason offers triple-bed units, some of which are provided with built-in bookshelves and cabinetwork. BUILDING CONDITION Like many of the other residence halls on campus, Mason suffers from dated infrastructure and growing deferred maintenance issues. The built-up roof is beyond its useful life. Termite damage is evident near the vending area. The original waterproofing in the tunnel between Mason and Randolph appears to be failing and in need of replacement. The five-story building lacks an elevator and contains a dead-end corridor adjacent to a fire stair entry that is currently locked. The exterior doors, wood windows, and the rainwater drainage systems are rotting or beyond their useful lives. The lounges and study spaces in the building are generally dark and uninviting.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Melchers Hall, built in 1951 and renovated in 1994, houses the Department of Art and Art History. It is named for internationally known artist Gari Melchers, who lived at Belmont in Falmouth, Virginia. The Gari Melchers Home and Studio at Belmont houses Melchers home, studio, and collection of art, and is maintained by the University. Melchers Hall is one of three buildings that make up UMW’s Fine Arts Complex. Studio arts, such as print making and sculpture, are activities conducted in Melchers. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Located on the northwestern side of campus, Melchers Hall is a three-level, brick-clad building. Its location next to Pollard and duPont Halls creates a cluster of fine and performing arts buildings. The building is compartmentalized, requiring the occupants to transfer to the building exterior to gain access to other spaces, making wayfinding difficult. The balustrades on Melchers exterior are in poor condition and in need of replacement. Exterior wood windows and cracked skylights are in poor condition and should be replaced as well. The stormwater drainage system is also in poor condition. The carpeting, ceramic tile floors and walls, toilet partitions, drinking fountains, school equipment and furnishings, painted finishes, stained ACT and VCT are aged, worn, or in poor condition. Upgrading these items could enhance the interior aesthetic of the building. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system and devices, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Monroe Hall was constructed in 1910 and is one of the three original buildings on campus. Monroe was the first academic building on campus that was multi-functional. It housed classrooms and administrative offices; a swimming pool, dressing room, and gymnasium were located in the basement. At its opening, it was originally referred to as the Administration Building, then it was temporarily named Russell Hall after the school’s first president. Later, it was officially named James Monroe Hall, in honor of the Virginia-born fifth President of the United States who served in the Fredericksburg City Council and housed his law office downtown. Monroe Hall is now home to UMW’s Departments of History and American Studies, Political Science and International Affairs, Geography, Economics, and Sociology and Anthropology. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Monroe Hall houses a number of classrooms, faculty offices, geography teaching labs, seminar rooms, and miscellaneous support spaces. Recent renovations upgraded the buildings exterior construction, stormwater management system, restored the site walks and lighting, as well as reorganized and upgraded interior spaces so that they can be utilized more efficiently. Monroe Hall has been well maintained and the exterior of the building retains almost all of the elements of the original design, including the original cast-in-place foundations and spandrel beams, brick bearing walls, wooden single glazed double hung windows, load bearing wooden staved columns with terracotta capitals on the front and rear porches, and the original pitch and configuration of the slate roof. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

The exterior envelope and structure of Monroe Hall remained intact during the renovation, except for those areas that were affected by the new work. Most of the interior partitions were removed. Although the corridor bearing walls remained, some of the plaster lath on these walls was removed and replaced to allow for the installation of new M/E/P systems. Most of the doors were removed and replaced with new wood doors and hardware, a few existing doors remain. Some of the existing historic hardware was salvaged and reused. All of the existing floor finishes, ceilings, and ceramic tile (toilet rooms) was removed. In addition, the toilet fixtures, water fountains, and stair handrails were replaced with fixtures and systems that meet current code and ADA requirements.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y The Fine Arts Complex, consisting of duPont, Melchers, and Pollard Halls, completed construction in 1952. Pollard Hall was named after former Governor of Virginia John Garland Pollard. Renovated in 1994, Pollard Hall is home to the University’s Department of Music, which has practice rooms for student use and a beautiful recital hall. All of the buildings in the complex are characterized by their long exterior arcades or balconies that face away from the tri-plex. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Located on the mid-northwestern side of campus, Pollard Hall is a three-level, brick-clad building. There are visible cracks in the porch soffit on the exterior of the building that should be investigated further. The existing single-ply roofing membrane is also in poor condition and in need of replacement. The perimeter balustrades while not an immediate concern have some visible wear and tear that could begin to cause issues where the roofing membrane and balustrade meet. Exterior door closers appear to be broken and should be replaced as well. To maintain energy efficiency and integrity of the exterior envelope, the exterior wood window assemblies should also be replaced. The stormwater drainage system is also in poor condition. The carpeting, ceramic tile floors and walls, toilet partitions, drinking fountains, school equipment and furnishings, restroom accessories, painted finishes, stained ACT ceiling and system and VCT are aged, worn or in poor condition. Upgrading these items could enhance the interior aesthetic of the building. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system, fire alarm devices and exist signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems. The sprinkler system is leaky and should also be repaired.

Randolph contains an electrical distribution system that is original to the building and the cause of most of the electrical complications in the building, including issues with general service. Electrical rooms are overheated, and tele-data equipment is exposed where it should be protected. In order to maintain optimum energy efficiency, lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building. Dated exterior lighting should be replaced, and incandescent lamps within the building should be replaced with compact fluorescent lamps. Available technology in the building is poor. There appears to be a need for the computer network system to be upgraded.

OVERALL BUILDING RATING

<.05

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Located right off Campus Walk, directly in front of George Washington Hall, and across from Mason Hall, Randolph is part of the Randolph / Mason complex. Randolph is a mirror image of Mason, houses approximately 195 students and featuring in-suite baths. All rooms have newly painted walls, large dressers, and full-length mirrors on the door. Kitchens are located on the second, fourth, and fifth floors. Each kitchen is equipped with a stove, oven, microwave, cabinets, and counter space. Vending machines and laundry rooms are located on the second floor. Also found on the second floor is a lounge, complete with a big screen TV and a ping-pong table. Study rooms are located on the second, fourth, and fifth floors. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Like many of the other residence halls on campus Randolph suffers from dated infrastructure and growing deferred maintenance issues. The built-up roof is beyond its useful life. The original waterproofing in the tunnel between Mason and Randolph appears to be failing and in need of replacement. The five-story building lacks an elevator. The exterior doors, wood windows, and the rainwater drainage systems are rotting or beyond their useful lives. The lounges and study spaces in the building are generally dark and uninviting. The furnishings are uncomfortable, aged, and worn. In general, the study rooms seem too small to be useful and kitchens are dated. Interior finishes and fixtures, including ACT, VCT, CMU wall finish, carpeting, ceramic floor and wall tile, drinking fountains, painted epoxy and traditional painted wall finishes, damaged plaster ceilings, interior doors, UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

The mechanical systems in Randolph are worn out. The restroom exhaust and distribution system is not functioning properly. The domestic water distribution, sanitary waste systems, and the perimeter hot and chilled water distribution units and system are beyond their useful lives. The water heater and heat exchanger are aged and corroded in some places.

CODE COMPLIANCE & ACCESSIBILITY Randolph’s main entrance lacks an exterior entry ramp and is not handicap accessible. Opening widths on many interior doors are smaller than the minimum widths accessibility codes require. ADA signage should be installed to meet accessibility codes and standards as well. Most of the interior doors contain knob-style hardware. The toilet rooms, drinking fountains, and kitchen casework are also non-compliant with ADA codes and standards. A sprinkler system should be installed in order for the building to meet current life safety codes. Although not immediately needed, fire extinguishers, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system and devices, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems.

As for the building infrastructure, the heat exchanger is in need of a shell and tube renewal and the heat pumps are aged and corroded. Although the HVAC equipment is aged in general, the exhaust systems in the toilet rooms within Russell are in particularly poor condition. Sufficient ventilation should also be provided in the laundry, janitorial, and electric rooms. The domestic water distribution and sanitary waste systems are due for high end renewal. The perimeter hot and chilled water distribution units and system are beyond their useful lives. The steam fired hot water heater is also in poor condition.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Russell Hall is a coeducational first-year residence hall named for Edward H. Russell, the first president of Mary Washington College. Russell is home to approximately 173 residents and features a large, split-level lobby and hall bathrooms. There are eight kitchenettes and lounge areas in Russell, one located at each end of every floor. Kitchenette amenities include a microwave, a sink, cabinets, and counter space. However, no ovens are provided. Both the laundry room and vending machines are located on the basement floor. Russell’s split-level lobby is defined by two sweeping staircases and a TV lounge with a big screen TV. Since Russell’s beds are designed to double as sofas, its rooms are particularly conducive to a sociable atmosphere. For a first-year residence hall, Russell is fairly remote from the student life hubs of the campus and geographically cumbersome to walk to and from. However, Russell is a five minute walk from Hyperion, the local Fredericksburg coffee house, as well as all the downtown Fredericksburg stores and restaurants. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Although minor modifications have been made to help the building function throughout the years, the building, like many of the other residence halls, is in relatively poor condition. The built-up roofing is aged and should be considered a priority for renewal. The exterior doors, wood windows, and gutters and downspouts are beyond their useful lives. The hydraulic freight / passenger elevator is also in poor condition and is not compliant with current accessibility codes. There is a lack of natural day-lighting and comfortable furniture in the entry lounge areas. Although there is an attempt UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Russell contains an electrical distribution system and wiring that is original to the building and is the cause of most electrical complications. In order to maintain optimum energy efficiency, the system should be re-wired and lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building.

C O D E C O M P L I A N C E & A C C E S S I B I L I T Y Russell lacks a wheelchair accessible exterior entry ramp and is overall not wheelchair accessible. Exterior door opening widths and door hardware do not meet current accessibility codes and standards. Directional and life safety signage should be installed to meet accessibility codes and standards. Although there is an elevator in Russell, it is not ADA accessible. Toilet rooms and drinking fountains are not ADA compliant. A fire suppression system should be installed in order for the building to meet current life safety codes. Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system and devices, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems. According to the July 2009 Asset Detail Report, the asbestos-containing-materials should be safely removed and replaced with clean, non-hazardous materials.

The sanitary waste system is due for high end renewal as well.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Seacobeck Hall has served the dining needs of the University’s student body since its construction in 1931. Named for the Native American tribe that once lived at the site of the dining hall, Seacobeck’s dining area is split into four rooms - Washington Diner, South Market, UMW Bistro, and the Faculty / Staff Dining Room - which extend radially from a central hexagon shaped kitchen. The kitchen has a twostory ceiling with an office mezzanine level surrounding it. Sodhexo provides contracted food service to the restaurants at Seacobeck Hall. The offices of Student Activities, Community Services, student organizations, Design Services, and the Document Center are located in the basement. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Since Seacobeck was renovated in 2006, there are few issues with the building besides some programmatic and special concerns that are a result of campus growth. On the exterior, the perimeter balustrades, while not an immediate concern, have some visible wear and tear that may cause issues where the roofing membrane and balustrade meet. The exterior doors, wood windows, and rainwater drainage system are aged in and in need of replacement. The interior has an interesting arrangement, but entries get crowded at peak periods due to lack of point-of-sale stations, currently there is only one at each entrance. This causes means of egress and transition spaces near the entries to be crowded and hard to navigate through. The interior of the Student Activities / Printing suites are far from desirable, both in terms of location as well as UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Virginia Hall is a first-year, all-female residence hall named for the Commonwealth. Virginia is home to approximately 183 women and features both hall and in-suite baths. One of the three original buildings on campus, Virginia is centrally located and has excellent views of the campus from all four sides. Each room offers beautiful hard wood floors. There are three kitchens in Virginia (one on each floor), which include a refrigerator, a stove, an oven, counter space, and cabinets. Vending machines and the laundry rooms are located in the basement. In addition, Virginia features a spacious parlor. With a big screen TV, ample natural light, couches and armchairs. Virginia is less than a minute from the Nest and the Woodard student center. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N The high ceilings, hardwood floors, location on campus, and inviting, active parlor make Virginia an almost perfect living-learning environment for young women in their first year. However, Virginia has no elevator, no air conditioning, and aged electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems. There appears to be a need for additional hall bathrooms as well as lounge and study space. On the exterior of the building, the brick walls, exterior door, wood window assemblies, and gutters and downspouts are not only aged but damaged in some places and should be replaced or repaired. Interior finishes and fixtures, including ACT, VCT, carpeting (particularly in the parlor), light fixtures, window treatments, wood flooring, drinking fountains, painted wall finishes (including painted epoxy masonry walls), interior doors, kitchen cabinets, counters and sinks, restroom fixtures, fittings and accessories, and furniture, are aged, worn or in poor condition. Upgrading these items could enhance the interior aesthetic of the building. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Virginia contains an electrical distribution system and wiring that is original to the building and the cause of most electrical complications within the building. In order to maintain optimum energy efficiency, the system should be re-wired and lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building. Adding outlets to the shared hall baths would also make the environment a more functional one, however the existing power load combined with original wiring can not support adding any outlets in the building without providing a new electrical distribution system.

C O D E C O M P L I A N C E & A C C E S S I B I L I T Y Virginia Hall has a wheelchair ramp on the north entrance, facing Palmieri Plaza, yet the building is not necessarily wheelchair friendly. Interior stairs are not up to current standards. Interior door opening widths, drinking fountains, and kitchen casework are not compliant with current ADA codes and standards. Interior and exterior door hardware are also non-compliant. ADA signage should be installed to meet accessibility codes and standards. Currently, the restrooms in the building are not ADA accessible. Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system and devices, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems.

OVERALL BUILDING RATING

Although the HVAC equipment is aged in general, the exhaust systems in the restrooms within the building are in particularly poor condition. Sufficient ventilation should also be provided in the laundry, janitorial, and electric rooms as well as kitchens. The heat exchanger is in need of shell and tube renewal and the existing heat pumps are aged and corroded.

.52

Westmoreland contains an electrical distribution system and wiring that are original to the building and the cause of most electrical complications within the building. In order to maintain optimum energy efficiency, the system should be re-wired and lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building. Dated incandescent lamps within the building should be replaced with compact fluorescent lamps.

C O D E C O M P L I A N C E & A C C E S S I B I L I T Y Westmoreland Hall is not wheelchair accessible, nor are interior stairs up to current standards. Interior door opening widths, drinking fountains, and kitchen casework are not compliant with current ADA codes and standards. Interior and exterior door hardware are also non-compliant. ADA signage should be installed to meet accessibility codes and standards. Currently, the restrooms in the building are not accessible. Sprinklers should also be installed in the building as, currently, none exist. Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system and devices, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Westmoreland hall is an upper-class, coeducational residence hall named in honor of Westmoreland County, Virginia, the birthplace of well-known leaders including George Washington, James Monroe, and Robert E. Lee. Westmoreland is located between George Washington and Ball Halls. Completed in 1939, Westmoreland houses 111 upper-class students in double (two per room), triple (three per room), and quad (four per room) rooms with in-suite baths. All the wood floors have recently been refinished. The building has a kitchen, laundry room, and vending machines on the basement floor and another kitchen on the third floor. The lobby on the first floor has a television, while a smaller lounge on the third floor serves as the meeting area. Westmoreland traditions include Roctoberfest, Blarney Ball, and Westfest. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Being one of the oldest residence halls on campus, Westmoreland suffers the same, if not more, hardships as the other dorms on campus face. The building has no elevator, no air conditioning, and aged infrastructure and systems. There appears to be a need for additional lounge and study space. On the exterior of the building, the brick walls, exterior door, wood window assemblies and stormwater drainage systems are not only aged by damaged in some places and should be replaced or repaired. Interior finishes and fixtures, including ACT, VCT, concrete floors, drinking fountains, painted wall finishes (including painted epoxy masonry walls), painted plaster ceilings, interior doors, kitchen cabinets, counters and sinks, restroom fixtures, fittings and accessories, and furniture, are aged, worn, or in poor condition. Upgrading these items could enhance the interior aesthetic of the building. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Although the HVAC equipment is aged in general, the exhaust systems in the restrooms within Willard are in particularly poor condition. Insufficient ventilation is causing mold growth within the building. Sufficient ventilation should also be provided in the laundry, janitorial, and electric rooms. The compressor and condensate pump system are aged and should be replaced to maintain the integrity of the system. The heat exchanger is in need of a shell and tube renewal and the heating and cooling pumps are aged and corroded. The domestic water distribution and sanitary waste systems are due for high end renewal and the perimeter hot and chilled water distribution units and system are beyond their useful lives. The wet sprinkler system and pumps should be tested in order to maintain integrity of the fire protection system.

OVERALL BUILDING RATING

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Centrally located between Virginia Hall and the Woodard Student Center, and facing the fountain located at the very center of campus, Willard houses 181 upper-class, coeducational students in doubleoccupancy rooms and features small hall bathrooms shared by 8 students each. Additionally, Willard is a centrally air-conditioned building. Completed in 1911, this first building on campus was named for the famous temperance leader and crusader for women’s rights, Frances Willard. From the very first days of the school, Willard Hall housed students and many support services including dining rooms, the post office, gift shop, and infirmary. In the 1920s, students enjoyed the Little Red Lane Tea Room located in the basement of Willard Hall. Today, Willard is home to the SYE (Second-Year Experience). B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N The high ceilings, hardwood floors, air conditioned rooms, and location on campus make Willard a nice choice for sophomores. However, Willard has no elevator along with aged electrical, plumbing and HVAC systems. It also lacks a parlor and sufficient lounge and study space. On the exterior of the building, the brick walls as well as exterior door and wood window assemblies are not only aged but damaged in some places and should be replaced or repaired. The existing wood trim, columns, and porches are also rotting in some places. The wood trim on the exterior walls could also use a new coat of paint. Although the cause cannot be specifically identified, the basement is taking on water, which would suggest a more thorough inspection of the stormwater management around the building.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Jefferson Hall is a coeducational first-year residence hall named for Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States and founder of the University of Virginia. Jefferson Hall is adjacent to Combs, where the English, Linguistics, Language, and Speech Departments are housed. Approximately 192 students live in Jefferson. The building features hall bathrooms along with double and triple rooms. The first through fourth floors have two kitchenettes per floor, one in each wing. Kitchenettes include microwaves, sinks, counter space, and cabinets. However, the kitchenettes do not provide ovens or stoves. Both the laundry room and vending machines are located on the basement floor. The first floor includes a lobby with ping-pong table, a plethora of furniture, and a big screen TV. The large field in front of Jefferson is often populated by students soaking up the sun, studying under the large shady trees, lounging in the Adirondack chairs listening to someone strumming their guitar, or just playing a game of football. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Jefferson has potential to be part of a successful living-learning environment; however, its distance from dining halls, large, inactive entry, and lounge spaces do not permit a successful living-learning mode at this time. Upgrading some of the interior finishes listed below, adding more flexible furniture and a dining option on the south end of campus would make this an ideal location for a first-year student to live. The exterior door and wood window assemblies are not only aged but damaged in some places and should be replaced.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Located on the north end of the campus, Goolrick Hall houses the gym, swimming pool, weight room, dance studios, locker rooms, and the Department of Health and Physical Education. Goolrick Hall, built in 1969, was named after the Commonwealth delegate, C. O’Conor Goolrick, whose legislation made possible the founding of the University of Mary Washington in 1908, then known as the State Normal and Industrial School. The new state-of-the-art Fitness Center is immediately adjacent to Goolrick Hall. The Anderson Center, currently under construction, will allow UMW to host 2,000 people for Eagles athletic events and 3,000 for convocation events. Designed to accommodate athletics and physical education programs alike, the facility will for the first time give UMW the ability to host regional Division III basketball championships and ease scheduling of the existing Goolrick Hall gymnasium. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N This brick clad facility has five levels with a full basement foundation and two occupiable roof decks. Although not an immediate need, the ballasted single-ply roof membrane is beyond its useful life and should be replaced. The wood windows and exterior doors, however, are in need of immediate replacement. The mortar joints on the exterior of the building are deteriorating, and parts of the brick wall where foundations are being dug for the Anderson center are causing stress cracks in the brick due to lack of expansion joints along long spans of the exterior wall assembly. Excessive moss growth is occurring on the exterior walls and should be cleared to maintain integrity of the exterior wall assembly. The interiors of Goolrick UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

The HVAC renovation done in 1999 was not sufficient for the buildings needs and acted as temporary solution for a larger problem. The heating and cooling pumps are aged and corroded. The four pipe perimeter units are beyond their useful life. Sufficient ventilation should also be provided for the entirety of the building. The perimeter hot and chilled water distribution units and system are beyond their useful lives. Although supplemental electrical service was provided with a 1999 HVAC renovation, the electrical service and distribution in the building is in poor condition and deteriorating in some places. In order to maintain optimum energy efficiency , the system should be re-wired and lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building. Aged exterior lighting should be replaced as well. Dated incandescent lamps within the building should be replaced with compact fluorescent lamps.

C O D E C O M P L I A N C E & A C C E S S I B I L I T Y Goolrick Hall provides a wheelchair entrance in the rear, which is currently being blocked by the construction of the Anderson Center. Handicapped parking is provided in the adjacent lot between Alvey and Arrington Halls and planned for in the new site work associated with the Anderson Center. The entrance through the new fitness center is currently the wheelchair accessible entry into Goolrick. The building is equipped with an elevator, but lacks and ADA compliant showers, door hardware, drinking fountains, directional signage, and an accessible entrance to the locker rooms and pool. A fire suppression system should be installed to meet current codes and standards. Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system and devices, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Originally built as an apartment, the Cornell House property, located below the University’s Sunken Road entrance, was leased by Mary Washington to serve first as a residence hall and later to house the University’s Center for Historic Preservation (now in Combs Hall). Cornell House has also provided a temporary residence for visiting professors and guests of the University. The building was also used for displaced staff during the Lee Hall Renovation. Cornell includes a kitchen, one and a half baths, and two offices that were converted from a bedroom and living room. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N This wood siding clad facility has served the University as a flexible office space and faculty housing for several years. It has never had a renovation, besides the conversion to office space. If it continues to be used in this manner, several small upgrades would increase the efficiency of the house to serve the University for years to come. The wood windows, exterior doors and gutters and downspouts are in need of replacement. Interior finishes and fixtures, including light fixtures, carpeting, painted wall finishes, vinyl sheet flooring, linen wall coverings, and furniture, are aged, worn or in poor condition. Upgrading these items could enhance the interior aesthetic of the building.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y The Heating Plant is located along College Avenue across from the Fine Arts Complex. Built in 1951, the single-story structure contains approximately 8,289 square feet of area. The plant houses three steam boilers which supply a steam heating loop on campus. The majority of the buildings on the Fredericksburg campus are supplied by the heating loop. Two of the dual fuel source steam boilers are rated at 40,000 lbs/hr and the third steam boiler is rated at 13,000 lbs/hr (gas only) for summer loads. BUILDING CONDITION The large boiler chimney visible across campus is deteriorating near the top. The built up roof is in aged and should be considered for replacement. Abandoned coal equipment should be removed and disposed of safely. The exterior door and steel window assemblies are not only aged but corroded in some places and should be replaced. The stormwater drainage system is also beyond its useful life and concrete retaining walls around the building are deteriorating. Linear cracks are occurring in the substructure, the cause of this should be further investigated. Interior finishes and fixtures, including drinking fountains, painted wall finishes (including painted plaster and concrete walls), interior doors, restroom fixtures, fittings, and accessories, are aged, worn or in poor condition.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Woodard Campus Center, completed in 1986, has served as the hub of student activities on campus. The center is home to the Eagle’s Nest (UMW’s food court), the campus post office, EagleOne ID Card center, automatic teller machine, the “Washroom” space for games and recreation, commuting student lockers, commuting student lounge (Tan Room), the Great Hall (location for concerts and special events), and several meeting and conference rooms, including the Red Room. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N This brick clad facility is one of the newer buildings on campus, but seems to attract mixed reviews from students, faculty and staff alike. The central location of Woodard is perfect for a student center. The facilities and programs within the building, however, are not as perfect as they could be. First, student activities, government, and organization offices, currently located in Seacobeck, belong in the student center. The food court is over utilized and lacks seating space. The Washroom does not seem to be as occupied as it was intended to be; smaller, more compact gaming spaces may work better for the demographic the school currently serves. Students and others who use this room seem to gravitate toward the computer touchdown stations rather than the recreation equipment and the room is empty, even at peak periods. Many of the spaces including the Washroom, main entry and Great Hall suffer from a lack of natural light, which may contribute to the lack of student activity within these spaces. Students seem to gravitate toward the recently added Patio, where natural light is ample. Great Hall is not ideal aesthetically or functionally as a primary event venue on campus. The building also lacks student study and functional, inviting lounge spaces. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

C O D E C O M P L I A N C E & A C C E S S I B I L I T Y Both the front and rear entrances of Woodard Campus Center are at grade, so they are completely wheelchair accessible.

The building lacks ADA compliant food service counters and directional signage. Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system and devices, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems.

ALVEY HALL The exhaust systems in Alvey are in poor condition and are causing mold growth throughout the building. Sufficient ventilation should also be provided in the restrooms, as well as laundry, janitorial, and electric rooms to maintain the integrity of the system. Insulating the attic properly would also increase the integrity of the building envelope and increase energy efficiency.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Alvey is a first-year residence hall, named for Edward Alvey, Dean of the Faculty from 1936-71. The co-educational residence hall houses 145 residents and features in-suite bathrooms. Alvey is located near Simpson Library, Goolrick Hall, the Fitness Center, and the Jepson Science Center. Alvey is also the closest residence hall to the parking deck. Each floor is supplied with a centrally located kitchen, study lounge, and laundry room. The kitchens include a microwave, an oven, a refrigerator, counter space, and cabinets. Vending machines are located on the first floor near the main lobby, which features a TV lounge with a big screen TV. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Although Alvey is one of the newer buildings on campus, it is not aging well. Many problems exist with the overall infrastructure of the building and the exterior envelope. The exterior brick walls and wood trim are stained and make for poor perception of the building. The spaces on the interior of the building feel clinical, and lounges lack ample natural light. Interior finishes, fixtures, and fittings, including VCT, drinking fountains, kitchen cabinets, counter and sinks, painted wall finishes, fixed and flexible furnishings, and equipment, are aged, worn, or in poor condition. Upgrading these items could enhance the interior aesthetic of the building.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y South Hall, a coeducational, upper-class hall located on the south end of campus behind Jefferson Hall, is home to 32 students. South Hall has in-suite baths and is one of the few residence halls with central air-conditioning. The kitchen, laundry facilities, and a study lounge are located on the first floor. The kitchen contains a stove, oven, sink, refrigerator, and microwave. Relatively new, South Hall is known for its barbecues - bring your own “burger or dog� - and foosball tournaments. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Although South is one of the newer buildings on campus, it suffers the same short-comings as Alvey and Arrington Halls. Many problems exist with the overall infrastructure of the building and the exterior envelope. The asphalt shingled roofing is beyond its useful life and should be replaced. There are also no gutters on the building. The exterior wood doors and shutters are aged and worn and should be considered for replacement. The paint on the stair railing at the exterior entry is peeling and should be sanded down and repainted or replaced. The exterior brick walls and wood trim are stained and make for poor perception of the building. The spaces on the interior of the building feel clinical and lounges lack ample natural light.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Built in 1993, Ridderhoff Martin Gallery is a single-story structure that contains two gallery viewing areas, public restrooms, an office, and a storage room. Ridderhoff presents art exhibitions and educational events of interest to the UMW community and the general public. Exhibitions are brought in from museums around the country, or are drawn from the permanent collection of 5,000 artworks. Mid-20th century American and Asian art make up the largest parts of the permanent collection. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N The built-up roofing and asphalt shingles on Ridderhoff should be inspected and renewed or replaced as deemed necessary. Ridderhoff’s gutters show signs of leakage and should be renewed or repaired along with the building’s downspouts for reliability. The exterior brick stairs of the building show signs of damage and should be repaired or replaced.

Interior finishes and fixtures are aged, worn, or in poor condition. Upgrading these items could enhance the interior aesthetic of the building. Immediate attention should be given to the ceiling finishes as cracks have begun to show near the expansion joints. Both carpeting and VCT are beyond their useful lives and should be attended to as well.

With instructional technology in every classroom, the only thing Jepson will have a problem with is available power for any future technology additions. Jepson is one of the only buildings on campus that contains a large, tiered classroom space with full multimedia capabilities. While it has ample lounge and classroom space at present, the sciences are one of the fastest growing areas of study at UMW. It has quickly outgrown its facility and severely lacks research labs. In order to maintain optimum energy efficiency, lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Located on the north end of UMW’s Fredericksburg campus, between duPont and Goolrick Halls, the Jepson Science Center opened its doors in 1998. The 75,000-square foot, fourstory, on grade structure incorporates state-of-the-art support systems for science research and study. In addition to the Departments of Biological Sciences, Environmental Science and Geology, Chemistry, and Physics, Jepson is also home to the Science Literacy Center. The center enhances the teaching of interdisciplinary and introductory sciences with modern computer technology, as do a number of other computer labs. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N This four-level facility, including a full basement foundation, is in good overall condition. However, the seals for the exterior fiberglass trim are deteriorating. Interior finishes, such as carpeting, painted finishes, and various wall finishes, are worn and beyond their useful life.

The condensate pans for the air handling units in Jepson are leaking. The ductwork covering is also failing in spots around the building. The casings around the chilled water pumps are corroded and should be replaced. Sufficient ventilation should also be provided in the janitorial and electric rooms, and restrooms to maintain the integrity of the system. The fume hoods provided in the building frequently malfunction creating an indoor air quality risk with the chemicals that are used in labs. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

The building is equipped with elevators. Interior doors have illegible FRR labels and incomplete hardware installation, making them non-compliant with current codes and standards.

Pigeon infestation is an issue, particularly around the roof and dampers, and should be cleared up immediately to avoid any potential health hazards. Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system and devices, and exit signs should be inspected and identified to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Lee Hall re-opened after a two-year renovation and now brings several key student services under one roof. The Underground, a casual cafe, provides students with an on-campus venue for concerts, student events, and new alternative food options. Situated near Ball Circle, Lee Hall is the center of the campus and easily identified by the many national flags flying from the balcony. The building is also one of the few on campus that provides large, flexible, and technologically savvy meeting space. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Since it was recently renovated, Lee Hall is fully compliant with current codes and standards. Some say the building feels more like a student center than Woodard with functional and easy to use student service windows, the Underground, several computer touchdown stations, functional meeting rooms, and flexible lounge space throughout the building. Traffic flow through Lee Hall was enhanced by the addition of a central stairway and energy efficiency as well as safety features have also been greatly improved. At the same time, the tradition of the building was respected and preserved. For example, the architectural character of the former Ballroom has been retained (original wood floors, high ceilings and beams, lighting fixtures, wainscoting, etc.); however, the space has been reconfigured to provide two meeting rooms and additional pre-function space to better serve campus needs.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y The Physical Plant building for the University of Mary Washington is located off of the central campus on the Hanover Street Athletic Complex. This single-story building houses the UMW facilities services department and provides warehousing and storeroom functions for the campus. This includes office space, workshops, mechanical work bays for vehicles and equipment, as well as carpenter and plumbing shops. The facility contains meeting and dressing rooms for visiting athletic teams as well. South of the main building is a smaller one-story building that contains the Facilities Services HVAC shop, paint shop storage, electric shop storage, grounds shop, pesticide cage, auto shop, and two offices. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N The Physical Plant is a “work-horse� building and should be maintained since it serves as anything from flexible space for the Theater Department to locker rooms for the athletic department at any given moment. The exterior doors and steel windows are worn and beyond their useful lives. Interior finishes and fixtures, including ACT, carpeting, ceramic floor and wall tile, concrete floors, VCT, drinking fountains, kitchen casework, counters and sinks, utility sinks, painted wall, painted epoxy masonry finishes, restroom fixtures, fittings, accessories and partitions, fixed casework, and furniture (both office and lounge), are aged, worn, or in poor condition.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y The single-story stadium is located off of Hanover Street. The stadium was named after Earl Dickenson, a farmer, owner of a lumber company, and member of the House of Delegates in 1971. As part of the ruling Democratic Party, he worked his way up the leadership ranks, becoming chairman of the powerful House Appropriations Committee in 1996. Dickenson was known for his ability to bring home funding for local projects, some used to call the University of Mary Washington “Earl’s College” for his patronage of the school. The building contains two gang-style restrooms and a concession stand underneath the stadium seating structure. Stadium seating is constructed of steel and concrete and contains two concrete accessible ramps. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N The stadium is fairly new and in good condition overall. The exterior of the building looks clean and neat, and fencing and seating appear to be in good physical condition. Interior finishes and fixtures, including VCT, drinking fountains, and painted finishes, are slightly aged and upgrading these items could enhance the interior aesthetic of the building.

The building’s packaged electric heaters and electric water heater are beyond their useful lives. Interior lighting fixtures are inefficient and should be replaced with ones that are more energy efficient. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Each building has an enclosed central stairway that connects all levels and provides the primary entry and exit to the building. Typically, there are four apartments per floor, and each apartment contains either a balcony or concrete patio. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N There are ten apartment buildings total in the complex; some are in worse shape than others, but all need of some form of renovation. Although not an immediate need, the asphalt shingled roofs are beyond their useful lives and should be replaced. The wood windows, screens and exterior doors, are in poor condition and in need of replacement. Interior finishes, fixtures, and furniture are aged, worn, or in poor condition. Interior finishes, including ceramic tile, painted and papered wall finishes, carpeting, kitchen and bathroom casework, fixtures, accessories, and appliances are in need of the most attention. Upgrading these items could enhance the interior aesthetic of the building.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y Built as a private home more than 75 years ago, Trench Hill was acquired by the University in 1948. Located at the corner of Sunken Road and Hanover Street, the building was named to commemorate the Civil War trenches found on the property. During the next few decades, Trench Hill served as a residence hall for various groups of students, a child development center, and finally as offices for the Alumni Association and Advancement staff. By 1999, the idea of renovating and adding to Trench Hill took root. Today, one block away from the main campus, the new Jepson Alumni Executive Center (JAEC) houses the Alumni Office along with the UMW Development and UMW Foundation offices. The building also contains administrative offices, state-of-the-art meeting rooms for governing boards, a ballroom, and courtyard to accommodate University and community events and guest rooms for traveling alumni and UMW affiliates. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N The Jepson Alumni Center is in excellent condition, though painted wall finishes and carpeting are worn and warrant replacement.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y The James Monroe Museum and Memorial Library, located in downtown Fredericksburg, is the largest repository in the country of artifacts and documents related to the fifth president of the United States. The museum was opened in 1927 by Monroe descendants as a place to house their own personal collections, which had been handed down through generations of the family. Eventually, the museum and its extensive collections were turned over to the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the museum is now administered by the University of Mary Washington. The museum is on the National Register of Historic Places. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N The museum consists of three small buildings constructed around 1815, 1836, and 1850. A two-story addition and full basement was constructed in 1960. All are served by mechanical systems located within a separate building in the courtyard. Considering the valuable artifacts in the building, including the desk at which the “Monroe Doctrine” was signed, there is very little protection to keep them in good condition. The exterior doors, wood windows, and wood shingled roof are aged and in need of replacement. Gutters on the mechanical building are damaged and should be replaced. The interior wood stair is in poor condition. Interior finishes and fixtures, including carpeting, vinyl sheet flooring, kitchen casework, counters and sinks, utility sinks, painted wall and painted ceiling finishes, restroom fixtures, fittings, accessories, and linen UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

C O D E C O M P L I A N C E & A C C E S S I B I L I T Y Although the museum’s main entrance has been reoriented to be wheelchair accessible, one must go outside to get to all of the areas of the building. The storage in the basement and the offices upstairs are not ADA accessible, and there is no elevator in the building. The existing interior level change lacks a ramp. ADA signage should be installed to meet accessibility codes and standards. The restrooms in the building are not accessible, and most of the interior doors contain knob-style hardware. The building lacks sprinklers. A fire protection system should be installed to protect these valuable collections.

Although not immediately needed, emergency egress lights, fire alarm system and devices, and exit signs should be replaced to maintain integrity of the emergency light and power systems. According to the July 2009 Asset Detail Report, the hazardous lead and asbestos-containing-materials should be safely removed and replaced with clean, non-hazardous materials.

The site hosted the 2006 NCAA Division III National Championships. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N Overall, the Tennis Center is in good condition. However, in the winter of 2009 - 2010, significant snow and ice accumulation lead to the displacement of significant portions of the building’s gutter system as well as a majority of the snow guards. All of the interior finishes, fixtures and accessories appear to be up to date and in good condition, although the furniture is a bit dated in the lounge areas.

There are handicapped parking spaces provided in the Battleground Athletic Field parking lot adjacent to the building. The entrance to the Tennis Center is at grade. Currently, the smoke screen seems out of place on the first floor at the main stair and should be relocated above the stair on the second floor to be compliant with current fire codes.

B U I L D I N G S U M M A R Y This second academic building at the growing College of Graduate and Professional Studies (CGPS) campus in Stafford County was implemented to keep pace with steadily increasing enrollment at the six-year-old campus. The new glass and brick building began holding classes in January 2007. Regional organizations are invited to use the University’s state-of-the-art multipurpose spaces or teleconferencing theaters for meetings, interviews, and training. B U I L D I N G C O N D I T I O N The exterior of the Stafford North building appears to be in good condition. There appears to be some stormwater drainage issues near the front entry door, but overall the exterior of the building appears to be well maintained. In order to maintain optimum energy efficiency, lighting sensors should be installed throughout the building. C O D E C O M P L I A N C E & A C C E S S I B I L I T Y The building was finished in 2007 and is in compliance with all current ADA requirements for accessibility. There are wheelchair parking spaces at the entry, as well as wheelchair accessible restrooms on each floor. The entryway is equipped with an automatic door opening device.

Among the many strong outdoor spaces on campus, the three largest are the distinguished lawns of the Jefferson Square, the Westmoreland Lawn, and Ball Circle. These areas are utilized by students as informal gathering and activity spaces, and by the University for grand events, including commencement ceremonies on Ball Circle. The current landscaping of these spaces is open and inviting, with optimal density of shade trees. The turf of the lawns is sometimes stressed, as observed in Ball Circle, largely due to inadequate drainage where the lawn experiences areas of ponding water and saturated conditions. This problem can be remedied by installing a network of under drains below the turf, alleviating the wet conditions and strengthening the lawn so that it may be utilized by the students year-round. The University has created several outdoor plazas along Campus Walk and outside academic buildings. These plazas provide opportunities for informal interactions between students, faculty, and staff. Wooden benches and wall seating promote outdoor place making. Perhaps the most notable plaza space is that of Palmieri Plaza, located at the original heart of campus, between Monroe, Willard, and Virginia Halls, along Campus Walk. Areas of historical and cultural importance are plentiful at UMW, such as the Artillery Mound near the corner of College Avenue and William Street. Dating back to the Civil War, the significance of the earthen feature enhances the venerable knoll, creating a truly unique space. Another cultural area is the Amphitheater behind Trinkle Hall, which has hosted many events, including May Day and commencement festivities. As the Amphitheater resides in a natural dell, it sits lower than the surrounding topography and is only accessible via steps or steep ramps that do not accommodate wheelchair access. Having fallen into disrepair in the past decade, significant resources would be necessary to return the Amphitheater to its past prominence while updating it to meet current codes and regulations. There are eight athletic fields, including the V. Earl Dickenson Stadium, an indoor tennis facility, and outdoor tennis courts comprising the Battleground Athletic Complex. All of the athletic fields are natural surface fields that require regular watering and maintenance. The University has expressed interest in replacing one or more of these with a synthetic surface; however, concerns exist with respect to cooling the synthetic surface during hot weather, complicated by the current limitations of the water system serving the Battleground area. The Battleground Athletic Complex has minimal amenities for athletes and spectators. Such amenities will need to be added or expanded as the priority improvements to the complex. A facility housing multiple locker rooms, public restrooms, concessions would enhance the Battleground Athletic Complex. The campus contains many wooded areas, typically found on steep slopes where building placement is not recommended. Among these areas are the eastern slopes that run the length of the campus along Sunken Road. These slopes are wooded with large old growth trees and provide a substantial buffer between the University and the residential community to the east. Many other individual canopy trees have been preserved throughout the campus’ growth. Some of these trees are massive, complementing the grand building columns and Georgian architecture. The sizes of the great trees are of correct scale with the large lawn areas, providing balance and a unique identity to each space.

CHAPTER 3 - CAMPUS CONDITIONS

The University of Mary Washington’s most prevalent Fredericksburg campus asset is the configuration of its outdoor space. The outdoor green spaces provide excellent vistas and complement the arrangement of the academic and residential buildings. One of the most enchanting elements of the campus is Campus Walk, the primary pedestrian artery through campus offering direct access to marquee academic and residential buildings, as well as historical outdoor spaces.

WATER SANITARY STORM EXISTING

CONDITIONS

N A R R AT I V E

WATER DISTRIBUTION Water service to the UMW Fredericksburg campus is provided by the City of Fredericksburg. Water lines within the campus are owned and maintained by the University and principally fed via two water meters (6 and 8-inch) connected to a 12-inch city water main that runs along College Avenue and one six-inch meter off Hanover Street. The system is looped through the central campus area between George Washington Hall and the Fine Arts Center by an eightinch line, providing multiple flow paths to reduce pressure losses and provide redundancy. Water lines branch off the main loop and feed Goolrick Hall to the north with 6 and 8-inch lines; and Thomas Jefferson, Bushnell, South Marshall, and Russell Halls to the south with four-, six-, and eight-inch lines. Also, there is a 24-inch city waterline running across campus between the Jepson Science Center and Pollard Hall that the University does not tie into. It is currently not in an easement. The Battleground Athletic Complex is served from a six-inch city water main that runs along Hanover Street. UMW staff indicates that the irrigation system at the athletic fields does not have enough flow to allow all irrigation system to be operated at one time. Most of the water system is fairly old cast iron water pipe in poor condition. Several issues have been reported by UMW staff, including major breaks, pressure loss, and discolored water. Although water pressure at UMW is low, it is generally adequate for domestic water service. There is no overall water model of the University area that analyzes available flow and pressure. For future development, the water system in the vicinity of the development should be analyzed. This may be accomplished by performing flow tests at nearby fire hydrants and using the data to develop a hydraulic model of the system in the vicinity. The model can then be used to analyze possible improvements to the system and determine requirements for the development. PROBLEMS AND OPPORTUNITIES • Several major breaks have occurred that have been disruptive to the University. • A loss of flow and pressure due to corrosion reducing the cross sectional area of the pipes. • Discolored water from rust in the pipes. This is often seen after a period of low water use such as when students are on break. When the students return, the increase water use flushes the lose rust out of the pipes. • Because of the low flow and pressure, most buildings are equipped with fire pumps. About half of the buildings have a fire sprinkler system. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

• • • •

Connect to existing single lines to provide a loop will improve pressure and provide system redundancy in some areas. Provide fire and/or booster pumps. Add valves along existing lines to allow more of the water system to remain in service during water line breaks. Replace sections of the water system with more modern non-corrosive pipe.

S A N I TA R Y S E W E R The sanitary sewer serving the campus, and upstream residential and commercial properties, runs from the City of Fredericksburg, west of College Avenue, down across the main campus toward Sunken Road, with some sanitary lines draining toward William Street and the rest toward Fitzhugh Street. There are no easements on the sewers. More specifically, sanitary sewer serving UMW includes: •

• •

• • • •

An eight-inch Transite line serving upstream residential and commercial properties, including McDonald’s and Pizza Hut restaurants along Jefferson Davis Highway, running from Powhatan Street east across the campus between Pollard Hall and Jepson Science Center. DuPont and Pollard Halls, Simpson Library, and Jepson Science Center tie into this sewer with fourand six-inch cast iron lines. An eight-inch terracotta sewer serving residential properties along Dandridge Payne, Parcell, and Rowe Streets, which runs northeast between Chandler and Seacobeck Halls and connects with the previous line north of Mercer Hall and drains to Grove Avenue. Seacobeck , Melchers, and Mercer Halls and the Woodard Center tie into this sewer with four- and six-inch cast iron lines. A six-inch cast iron sewer serving Monroe and Willard Halls drains east to connect with the city sewer that runs along the back yards of residential properties between Sunken Road and Franklin Street. A sewer consisting of eight- and ten-inch cast iron and six- and eight-inch terracotta pipes serves Chandler, Virginia, Lee, Ball, Westmoreland, Trinkle, and George Washington Halls and drains from the campus to Monroe Street. Manson and Randolph Halls drain east through a six-inch cast iron sewer to Cornell Street. A six-inch cast iron pipe from Russell Hall sewers drains east to Mortimer Avenue. Bushnell, South, Framer, and Russell Halls drain east through a six-inch cast iron sewer to Sylvania Avenue. Residential properties along Colony Road and Buckner Street, and Comb and Thomas Jefferson Halls drain via a six-inch RCP to a eight-inch terracotta pipe to William Street.

The Battleground Athletic Complex area sewer drains from five-inch cast iron and six-inch terracotta pipes to the south to a 24-inch trunk main along Hazel Run.

Sewer main sizes range from five to eight inches, with the majority of lines six to eight inches. Older lines are cast iron, vitrified clay tile (terracotta), and Transite (asbestos cement pipe); a few newer lines are PVC. Many manholes are brick and may be prone to leakage and potential collapse. The staff rated the campus sanitary sewer system as 1.75 out of 5.0, with 1.0 being bad and 5.0 being good. There is no overall model of the sanitary sewer system that serves UMW. For future development at the University, the condition and capacity of the sewer lines downstream of the area to be developed will need to be determined. Due to the age and condition of much of the sanitary sewer, downstream improvements will most likely be needed.

PROBLEMS AND OPPORTUNITIES • Sewers that serve upstream restaurants have grease problems. • Tree roots are a general problem. • Terracotta sewer adjacent to Seacobeck Hall was slip-lined due to integrity issues. • The sanitary run from Seacobeck Hall to Monroe Hall is reportedly failing. • The sanitary sewer around Annex A is reportedly in poor condition. • Sewage overflows on the sewer running along Hazel Run. • An existing sewer runs under Trinkle Hall. • Brick manholes STORMWATER The University of Mary Washington commissioned a comprehensive report, Stormwater Quality and Quantity Management Study (Stormwater Study) prepared by Koontz-Bryant, PC, dated April 20, 2009, updated December 23, 2009. The findings in the report confirmed that the storm drainage system is generally adequate. There are, however, areas of the system that should be addressed in order to meet state and local ordinances. When analyzing the UMW Fredericksburg campus stormwater system, the following must be considered: stormwater conveyance, quantity, and quality. The above referenced stormwater study established a baseline condition for these items that has been approved by the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR). This baseline is to be used as a basis for their approvals for future development projects on the campus. As areas of the campus are


developed or improved, development plans must demonstrate that there is no increase in the quantity or quality of the stormwater runoff over the baseline condition, and that the runoff is conveyed to an adequate outfall channel so downstream properties are not damaged. Stormwater quality management addresses the phosphorus removal requirements based on the Fredericksburg Chesapeake Bay Preservation Ordinance and Virginia Law as set forth in the Virginia Stormwater Management Handbook. Currently, the Best Management Practices provided on campus do not remove the required amount of phosphorus. Further development will add more impervious area, increasing the required phosphorus removal. Deficiencies in the storm drainage system may be addressed on a case by case basis as areas of the University are developed. An alternative solution as outlined by Koontz-Bryant, is to provide three regional facilities to service existing and future development. The proposed locations for these facilities are as follows: • In the Western Drainage Basin, near Simpson Library • Near the Battleground Athletic Fields • In the parking lot at the intersection of William Street and Sunken Road Note: More detail on the amount of phosphorus removal and type of facility is provided in the Koontz-Bryant report. As future development projects are considered within a drainage area of a regional facility, UMW should consider building the facility to provide stormwater quantity and quality controls, particularly if further development in the area is anticipated. It may be more cost effective to construct and maintain one regional facility than several smaller facilities designed for each project on an individual basis. The staff reported multiple natural springs on site, and regional facilities may also serve as an outlet to these problematic springs. Stormwater quantity management will also play a factor in future development and master planning. Key outfall points have been identified by Koontz-Bryant, and the Virginia VDCR at which all post-development discharge flows cannot exceed pre-development flows for each drainage basin on site. Stormwater detention or infiltration facilities may be utilized to reduce to flow at these outfall points. The above mentioned regional facilities may also be designed to provide quantity management as well as quality management. A few of the existing channels on site that lead to the key outfall points are currently problematic. They contain runoff from the ten-year storm within their banks, but runoff from the two-year storm reaches erosive velocities. Proposed

development draining to these erosive channels, will need to correct this issue. The following buildings (or a portion of) currently drain to the erosive channel to the northeast of Simpson Library: • Ball Hall • Chandler Hall • Custis Hall • duPont Hall • Fairfax Hall • George Washington Hall • Hamlet House • Melchers Hall • Mercer Hall • Monroe Hall • Ridderhof Gallery • Seacobeck Hall • Simpson Library • Tyler Hall • Virginia Hall • Westmoreland Hall • Willard Hall • Woodward Campus Center The following buildings drain to the erosive channel to the southwest of the indoor tennis center: • Indoor Tennis Center • Physical Plant • Practice Field • Soccer and Lacrosse Fields The erosive channels can be corrected using methods such as lining the channel with riprap or equivalent, reducing the channel slope, widening the channel, diverting some of the flow to another channel that can accommodate the higher velocities, or by providing stormwater quantity control upstream to reduce the amount of runoff to the problem channel. The type and size of storm drain pipes on the campus include very old terracotta and cast iron pipes, and more modern concrete and reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) and poly vinyl chloride (PVC) pipe. The terra-cotta pipe sizes range from four to 20 inches, and the cast iron pipe ranges from 6 to 12 inches. The concrete and RCP pipe is between 6 and 36 inches, and the PVC is 6 inches. There are outstanding adequacy issues with several storm pipes. As referenced in the Koontz-Bryant report, a storm pipe is considered inadequate

if the hydraulic grade line for the ten-year storm is greater than the elevation of the top of the structure. The following buildings / areas have near inadequate storm pipes: • Chandler Hall • College Avenue (from Dandridge Street to Parcell Street) • George Washington Hall, Marshall Hall, Seacobeck Hall, Sunken Road / Monument Avenue • Trinkle Hall • Virginia Hall • Williams Street (UMW Apartments) • Woodard Campus Center For the Battleground Athletic Complex, inadequate storm pipes may be found in the following buildings / areas: • Hanover Street / Bright Street • Indoor Tennis Center • Physical Plant The inadequate storm pipes may be corrected by increasing the pipe size or slope, diverting the flow to another system with greater capacity, or producing stormwater quantity control upstream to reduce the amount of runoff to the problem pipe.

RESOURCE PROTECTION AREA Using the Koontz-Bryant report entitled “University of Mary Washington Eagles Nest-Woodard Campus Center Resource Protection Area Delineation”, the “RPA Determination Map”, and partial existing electronic documentation of the area provided by the UMW Office of Facilities Services as a basis, Burt Hill has provided a diagram illustrating the conceptual limits of setback from the existing perennial stream. Any development in or around this area would require a further survey of the RPA in that area to accurately document the setbacks as they relate to new construction.

S T E A M G E N E R AT I O N A N D C O N T R O L S The University of Mary Washington Central Heating Plant (CHP) steam generation system serves approximately 1.2 million gross square feet of academic, office and dormitory space on campus. The plant includes three boilers with Boiler Nos. 2 and 3 installed in 1967 and Boiler No. 1 replaced in 1994. The steam plant is well maintained and has sufficient capacity to serve the existing peak load. The existing steam generation system located at the CHP includes three boilers with a total generation capacity of 93,700 pounds per hour (pph), and a firm capacity of 53,700 pph. The firm capacity considers the capacity of the system without the largest boiler. The current steam generation capacity is adequate to support the future load projections as presented in the graph below.

OXYGEN TRIM CONTROLS A heat balance program was developed to evaluate new oxygen trimming controls on the existing boilers. The program incorporates combustion efficiency, system losses, historical testing data, as well as other parameters to develop the boiler / system efficiency for each unit. Several options were evaluated considering new oxygen trimming controls on the boilers under the existing boiler operation. Each option was evaluated at 100, 75, 50, and 25 percent part-load conditions and was evaluated based upon the weighted average boiler efficiency of the part load operations. The relatively low existing flue gas temperatures of Boiler No. 1 and the relatively low natural gas cost results in minimal cost savings. Based on the payback period, it is not recommended to install oxygen trimming controls on the existing boilers at this time

FLUE GAS ECONOMIZERS Similar options were developed to evaluate the use of economizers on the existing boilers. The installation of new economizers is marginally cost effective (approximately ten-year payback period). If the incorporation of economizers is desired by the University, it is recommended to initially install one unit on either Boiler No. 2 or 3 (primary winter boiler). With the fluctuations in the natural gas market, rates may increase over the next few years. An increase in natural gas cost would increase the savings (and reduce payback period) associated with new economizers. If the natural gas rate increases, it is recommended to reevaluate the incorporation of flue gas economizers on the existing boilers. CONDITION ASSESSMENT The University of Mary Washington commissioned a comprehensive report and conditional assessment of the existing CHP boilers and steam auxiliary equipment was performed. The equipment was evaluated for capacity and condition based upon a visual assessment and available log data. The heating plant support systems evaluated include condensate and feedwater pumps, water softeners, hotwell, and deaerator. Equipment age was taken into consideration during the assessment process. The overall reliability, efficiency, and capacity of all auxiliary equipment were ascertained and various improvements and enhancements were identified. The following table indicates the estimated remaining useful life of the equipment.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN


NORMAL POWER DISTRIBUTION The near-term recommendation includes the implementation of a Dual Fed Single Loop and Radial Tap Configuration (No Primary Isolation) as a first step to the final recommended system configuration. This would allow loads to be shifted from one feeder to another during an outage event within the capacity of the alternate feeder. This option is a relatively low cost solution to provide a partial level of primary redundancy. It is also recommended that the University provide Loop Thru Primary Isolation switches on all future buildings and these be installed in existing buildings that are scheduled for primary service upgrades. The long-term recommendation includes the implementation of a Dual Fed Single Loop and Radial Tap Configuration (with Loop Thru Primary Isolation). The conversion to this configuration can be performed gradually as time and funds become available. This arrangement significantly improves the fault isolation and recovery times regardless of where a failure occurs. With the addition of fault locator flags at each of the switches it would also significantly improve the fault location identification times as well.

EMERGENCY POWER GENERATION It is recommended that an emergency generator be provided to the CHP. A 200 kW diesel generator is recommended to be installed in an outdoor enclosure next to the existing plant. This would provide sufficient power to support the primary winter boiler operation in the event of a failure. The existing CHP currently has an automatic transfer switch installed and tied into the normal power system of the plant. With the installation of the generator, it is also recommended to add a feeder from the automatic transfer switch to the exterior wall and provide an exterior mounted disconnect switch. This would allow a quick and convenient tie in point for a rental generator in the event of an extended outage. It is also recommended that sufficient spare capacity be provided within the proposed on-site generation system for the new convergence center to also support the existing dining hall. This arrangement provides added redundancy and flexibility in operations of emergency generation in the event of a generator failure. In addition, centralizing the generators for both buildings in one location consolidates the fuel storage and handling. While emergency generation for the dining hall is not a code requirement, it does provide a means to continue to support students in on campus housing during a prolonged utility outage.

F R E D E R I C K S B U R G C A M P U S Emergency “Blue Light� phones are installed throughout the campus. The phones are prevalent and easily identifiable. It is recommended that the Campus Security make periodic checks to ensure the phones continue to be operational.

The University has incorporated several distinct lighting components and strategies on its Fredericksburg Campus, ranging from traditional globe fixtures to parking lot fixtures in excess of 15 feet tall to low landscape lighting for path illumination. Globe lighting fixtures serve as the primary means of lighting for the campus, being situated along pedestrian walks and adjacent to buildings and plaza spaces. Globe lights provide adequate light to the areas in the immediate vicinity of the fixture without being irritating to the eye. Areas outside of the immediate vicinity of the globe lights do not receive adequate lighting and are fairly dim. It is suggested that these areas receive additional lighting, typically a globe fixture, to create a more continuous level of illumination throughout the pedestrian paths on the campus.

EXISTING UNIVERSITY POLICE HEADQUARTERS AT BRENT HALL

Additional lighting strategies have been implemented, such as low level landscape lighting to illuminate site stairs in several locations. This practice should be expanded to all site stairs and ADA ramps where low light levels exist. Currently, it is also common practice to paint the edge of stairs with a white stripe to assist identification by pedestrians. This technique should be enhanced by using a reflective paint or tape. There are two known locations of sensitive records on campus. The primary location is in George Washington Hall where the records are stored in a security vault. The majority of secure storage and sensitive material is stored here, and the vault has limited access by authorized personnel only. The secondary location of secure record storage is in Lee Hall in a surface mounted safe that houses information for the EagleOne Card.

Campus-wide ADA access is limited by the natural topography of the site. This topography becomes more problematic as the site progresses north, creating significant accessibility challenges laterally across the site, from Willard to Seacobeck Hall. Further challenges are seen longitudinally through the site, beginning near the corner of Willard Hall where Campus Walk descends to the Woodard Hall Throughway. These challenges isolate major portions of the site so that ADA accessibility is only provided via car. In general, there are handicapped parking spaces located throughout the campus, strategically located adjacent to buildings with associated curb cuts and ramps along the sidewalks. However, most curb ramps do not offer the required four feet of flat area above the ramp. Fredericksburg’s building entrances have a greater difficulty in achieving ADA compliance. Many of the buildings were erected prior to wheelchair accessibility requirements, and, as such, a majority of the buildings contain stepped entry points. Some of these entrances have received a ramp / handrail addition to assist wheelchair access, but most of the entrances remain inaccessible according to ADA requirements. It is recommended that all main building entrances remaining through the ten-year plan be made wheelchair-compliant. The ADA ramps should follow a standardized design aesthetic so that all building entry ramps are of similar design. PROBLEMS AND OPPORTUNITIES • Install ADA paths to connect the currently isolated portions of the site. • Install ADA ramps at all buildings. • Incorporate ADA access to multiple locations to enhance site accessibility via new construction or renovation.. • Guide design and assure broad accessibility by using the Seven Principles of Universal Design. These include 1) Equitable use 2) flexibility in use 3) simple and intuitive 4) perceptible information 5) tolerance for error 6) low physical effort and 7) size and space for approach and use. • Opportunities to incorporate Universal Design into the campus include addressing entry and exit points to the campus walk, indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, and community entryways to the campus including public performance settings at George Washington (Dodd) and duPont (Klein).

CHAPTER 3 - CAMPUS CONDITIONS

The University of Mary Washington’s historical Fredericksburg campus has advantages and disadvantages to enabling full ADA compliance. Corridors along College Avenue and the central portion of Campus Walk are relatively flat, which makes these paths easily traversed by wheelchair. However, the areas outside these two flat corridors have significant topography that is not conducive to ADA access. Portions of the site are only accessible via steps or by long, steep ramps. Additionally, only a few of the buildings are fully ADA compliant.

Running south to north and adjacent to College Avenue, the lengthened rectangular site of the Fredericksburg campus has a unique configuration and coinciding topography. At the western ridgeline, College Avenue is representative of the slope and elevation of the western portion of the campus.

Outside this western plateau, the site descends sharply to the east down to the appropriately named Sunken Road. These steep eastern slopes are wooded with large legacy trees that crate a natural buffer between Sunken Road the rear of Randolph, Mason, Trinkle, Lee, Monroe, Willard, and Mercer Halls. The eastern slopes begin lessen slightly and migrate back into the campus south towards William Street. Brent and Bushnell Halls are situated atop the slopes, while Russell and Marshall Halls have been constructed below the slope at a significantly lower elevation than the majority of the campus. The northern part of campus is distinguished by the ravine the traverses the site, starting just northeast of Chandler Hall and continuing northeast through the Woodard Bridge to the parking lot east of Arrington Hall. The parking lot exits to Sunken Road at the head of the ravine. As significant drainage is conveyed by the ravine, it has been identified as a potential area for storm water management. East of the ravine, Melchers, duPont, and Pollard Halls are isolated by natural slopes on three sides, creating a terrace. Extending eastward from College Avenue, this terrace eventually slopes down into the ravine. The Simpson Library, positioned in the middle of the slope, has a second floor rear entry and first floor front entry to accommodate the sloping terrain. The northern most portion of the campus abuts Route 1. Of the buildings located here, Jepson and Goolrick Halls along with the Fitness and Anderson Convocation Centers are clustered at similar elevations, while Alvey and Arrington Halls are lower. The eastern face of Goolrick Hall marks the continuation of the campus’ eastern slopes, which traverse the length of the campus. At the bottom of this slope, the Parking Garage has been constructed such that the top deck is accessed from the access road off of Route 1, allowing for entrances and exits on both upper and lower decks. The University Tennis Center is located south of Hanover Street, directly across from College Avenue, on a level expanse that extends to the south and west to encapsulate three athletic fields and associated parking areas. South of the athletic fields, steep slopes descend to Hazel Run. Five additional athletic fields, as well as the V. Earl Dickenson Stadium and the Physical Plant, are west of the University Tennis Center and gently descend in elevation as they sequence south.

PROBLEMS AND OPPORTUNITIES Slopes restrict the available building areas to the east of Campus Walk. Level building sites are limited and located within the western plateau. This area has achieved a desirable building density and balance with open spaces.

CHAPTER 3 - CAMPUS CONDITIONS

The southwestern portion of the campus is relatively flat (0-10 percent) from Combs to Chandler Hall and extending east beyond the Campus Walk. Serving as the main plateau of campus, this area contains 19 of the campus’ structures, including marquee buildings and areas such as George Washington, Lee, Randolf, and Mason Halls; Ball Circle; and Palmieri Plaza.

CAMPUS WALK: THE PEDESTRIAN SPINE

PRIMARY

Double Drive serves as the main entrance of the campus and intersects College Avenue between George Washington and Combs Halls. It also offers parallel visitor parking along the southern side of each lane, which promotes pedestrian access to Campus Walk. Campus Walk is the primary artery of the campus, providing pedestrian access and linking a majority of the more prevalent campus buildings and spaces. Campus Walk runs south to north, from the Bell Tower, through Palmeiri Plaza and past the Woodard Campus Center and Simpson Library, linking several major academic and residence hall buildings. Several secondary, frequently utilized, narrower pedestrian routes connect to Campus Walk, providing access to other buildings and spaces not abutting Campus Walk, including Seacobeck, Chandler, and Westmorland Halls. A number tertiary paths, constructed from the natural movements of students through the site, provide access to Campus Walk as well. The advantage of these paths is that students typically walk along the paved paths, thus limiting damage to groundcover. However, many of the paths have been constructed along the shortest route, and usually traverse significant topography such that steps are required, which can cause maintenance and safety issues and also limit ADA access.

ARCADE IN FRONT STUDENT CENTER

OF

WOODARD

Bicycles are widely used by students to commute between the campus and surrounding area, as well as between locations on campus. The primary bicycle paths mimic the pedestrian paths and periodically cause safety issues at narrow locations. One of the most significant of these locations is at the Woodard Bridge, where Campus Walk descends onto the bridge and constricts the path by eliminating the grass shoulders that exist along the path in most other areas. Fredericksburg’s other entrances provide access to campus parking lots and loading areas. Parking lots are located primarily along the perimeter of the campus, adjacent to vehicular entrance points, and serve the current population adequately. Two large parking areas bookend the site: the parking garage and the lot east of University Apartments, which provide the majority of student parking. It has been noted by the University that students regularly park in the College Heights community, adjacent to campus and across College Avenue. Residents have asserted that the current parking culture of the students, faculty, staff, and visitors is causing a significant issue in their community.

CHAPTER 3 - CAMPUS CONDITIONS

The Fredericksburg campus has several vehicular entrance points, which connect the public vehicular roadways to the campus vehicular routes. There are four primary entrance points: two along College Avenue, one off of northbound Route 1, and one off of Sunken Road. Secondary entrances are located around the perimeter of the site, including those along College Avenue and Sunken Road, each serving parking / loading areas of the following buildings: Jefferson, Chandler, Seacobeck, and Marshall Halls; as well as the Anderson Convocation Center.

LANDHOLDINGS

Over the years, private gifts to the Foundation have supported scholarships, academic programs, student activities, campus buildings, campus enhancements, and special events for University alumni. At times, private gifts to the Foundation have included property. Additionally, the UMW Foundation has acquired and managed other real estate for the benefit of the University. These properties may be used to address immediate functional needs of the University, sold to fund special projects (the UMW Endowment), or even developed. The University of Mary Washington Foundation has a number of holdings that should be considered when planning the continued operation and growth of the University. This section reviews the existing planning and zoning considerations of the real estate holdings. Chapter 7 - Recommendations reviews how they could be developed and provides potential development options for the properties. This section also references the Fredericksburg Comprehensive Plan 2007, the Economic Development Authority’s Jumpstart! Fredericksburg 2010 report, the 2005 Fredericksburg Consolidated Plan, and the Stafford County Comprehensive Plan to ensure our recommendations compliment planning efforts already in place.

THE CITY FREDERICKSBURG AND UMW Fredericksburg is located 50 miles from both the District of Columbia (to the north) and Richmond (to the south). Established in 1728 and named after Frederick, the Prince of Wales, the city has a reputation for its charming, historic downtown. It became fully incorporated in 1781, and the population reached 22,818 in 2008. Fredericksburg is well connected to the I-95 corridor and the rest of the DC / Baltimore MSA. In addition to the easy access to I-95, the city is also connected to Stafford County, DC, and beyond via US-1, a major four lane highway. Most of Fredericksburg’s traffic flow is to or from the north (DC Metropolitan Area) during peak commuting hours, primarily via I-95 and US-1. The US-1 bridge over the Rappahannock River is often a traffic bottleneck, and Rt 3 has become increasingly jammed as residential development has grown west. A large percentage of Fredericksburg residents commute to the northern counties of Arlington, Fairfax and Prince William for work. Only 21 percent of Fredericksburg workers work within the city itself. Fredericksburg’s commuting residents are fortunate to have alternatives and can access DC with service on the Virginia Railway Express or Amtrak.

UMW FREDERICKSBURG CAMPUS

The University of Mary Washington’s Fredericksburg campus and athletic complex represent 171 beautifully landscaped acres within a short walking distance of the historic downtown. The University and the Foundation also own several other properties in and around the city of Fredericksburg. These properties are illustrated on the map to the right and include the Alum Springs Property to the southwest, Eagle Village to the north, and the Jepson Alumni Property.

THE FREDERICKSBURG COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2007 The Fredericksburg Comprehensive Plan was issued in 2007. With a 20-year planning horizon, it is to be updated every 5 years. The plan included the following Vision Statement for the city:

BATTLEGROUND COMPLEX

“Since the City’s founding in 1728, the citizens of Fredericksburg have overcome many challenges, created the character of the City, and ensured its extraordinary role in our Nation’s history. During our stewardship of this great City, we resolve to build on this heritage and add our mark on the City’s history.” The city council’s vision for Fredericksburg at its 300th anniversary is to be a city:  Animated by a sense of its unmatched, irreplaceable history;  Characterized by the beauty of its riverfront, the vibrancy of its downtown, and its safe and attractive neighborhoods;  Inspired by active arts, cultural, and education communities;  Shaped by civic involvement and economic vitality; and,  Of choice for people of many income levels, cultures, ethnicities, and physical abilities to live, work, and play.

155 2. Identify allowable mixed-use development by addressing issues that should be included in the Fredericksburg-specific mixed-use development definition, especially traffic flow, pedestrian accessibility, and parking management.

HOW FREDERICKSBURG WILL GROW Fredericksburg is experiencing a relatively slow and steady growth rate compared to Stafford County, particularly in regard to the senior population. Persons aged 65 and above will account for 25 percent of Stafford’s population by 2030, compared to 15 percent in Fredericksburg.

2 0 0 5 F R E D E R I C K S B U R G C O N S O L I DAT I O N P L A N The plan recommends that the ideal land use for the property would be for high-density, large floor-plate offices. Figure 45 in the plan illustrates that the intersection of College Avenue and Jefferson Davis Highway is an opportunity to create an entry marker for the University on each side of the street, assisting with wayfinding and anchoring the identity of the University on the corridor.

The Comprehensive Plan anticipated that Fredericksburg would absorb between 35,000 and 70,000 square feet of office space per year between 2005 and 2010, along with the 45 to 70 condominium units and 65 to 100 townhouse units per year.

The city also published the 2005 Fredericksburg Consolidated Plan for Community Development that highlighted other challenges in Fredericksburg. Fredericksburg’s housing and real estate market is affected by the following critical factors:

The Jefferson Davis Highway (US-1), is identified as a major transportation corridor in the Comprehensive Plan and affects the Eagle Village property and the Fredericksburg Campus. The goals for this corridor include: 1. Commercial development 2. Visual character 3. Mixed use 4. Complement other business centers

J U M P S TA RT ! F R E D E R I C K S B U R G 2 0 1 0 Since 1984, much of Fredericksburg’s growth has resulted from Mary Washington Hospital and the University. Growth occurred mostly along the major transportation corridors of US-3 and Interstate 95, following a sprawl pattern that has proven to generate traffic and is itself to be unsustainable. The JumpStart! Fredericksburg 2010 Initiative was started in 2005 by the City of Fredericksburg Economic Development Authority to provide economic development visioning for the community. The plan is intended “to trigger the implementation of appropriate projects identified in past studies as well as initiate new ideas and development opportunities for economic development initiatives.” The JumpStart! Initiative examined 11 corridors, including Jefferson Davis Highway along the length of the Eagle Village property. The Jefferson Davis Highway corridor is considered a long-term planning initiative that will take between 10 - 15 years to complete. The plan emphasized the importance of a comprehensive landscaping / streetscape program to extend from the Riverfront to Cowan Boulevard and proposed a new-urbanist scheme for the development of the Jefferson Davis highway corridor fronting the Eagle Village property. While the Comprehensive Plan structure does not emphasize or promote a connection from the UMW Fredericksburg campus to the Eagle Village property, the JumpStart! Plan does. It illustrates 19 structures on and around the Eagle Village property, with a continuation of the street grid already established on the east side of Jefferson Davis Highway. The Eagle Village Phase I development is a slight departure from the plan’s sketch, but it does not hinder expansion of the concept. The plan had two recommended zoning considerations: 1. Consider additional provisions (form based code, amendment to existing zoning category) to increase building height from 40 to 80 feet with special permit and an increase in the Floor Area Ratio (FAR) from 0.5 to 2.0 or 3.0 (to allow eight-story buildings); and,

1.

2. 3.

The city is extremely accessible by rail and roadway to the DC metropolitan area and has become a part of the Washington– Baltimore, DC-MD-VA-WV Combined Metropolitan Statistical Area as a result of tremendous residential and commercial growth. The University of Mary Washington does not have adequate housing for its enrolled student population, which has added to the demand for rental units and caused a strain on adjacent city neighborhoods. The rising cost of local real estate has put housing beyond the economic means of many residents.

In the Consolidated Plan, the Office of Planning and Community Development indicated that, “[the residential capacity of the University of Mary Washington has not kept up with its growing student population. In 2003, residential capacity on-campus was a maximum of 2,185 beds, with another 365 beds in off-campus apartments. This maximum capacity of 2,550 beds accommodates just under 65 percent of the overall enrollment of 3,962 students. Most of the remaining 1,412 students find housing in the neighborhoods that surround the University. This demand for rental housing near the campus strains the nearby neighborhoods as there is a higher demand than available units. In addition, the parking capacity of these older neighborhoods is impacted by the many additional vehicles.”

ISSUES TO CONSIDER There are several issues to be taken into consideration when considering the future of the Foundation’s real estate holdings in the city of Fredericksburg:  The city is likely to see continued population growth and, eventually, there will be increased demand for housing;  Population growth in the city may trend towards more senior residents;  Proximity to DC, and Richmond, Virginia, makes Fredericksburg an attractive commercial location because of its affordability;  A growing healthcare market may present more partnership opportunities for UMW and the Mary Washington Hospital; and,  The city is supportive of growth on the Fredericksburg campus and understands that the University is an important economic engine in the community.  Eventually UMW will have to adapt to this growth.

Z O N E D : Commercial Shopping Center (C-SC)

EAGLE VILLAGE PROPERTY The Eagle Village property is located across US-1 from the Fredericksburg campus and offers the largest opportunity for physical expansion of the campus. The property is in a location that can improve the overall sense of entry to the campus, increase exposure to the community, and provide opportunities for partnership with other organizations. A portion of the property, which is currently home to the Park & Shop Shopping Center, is being developed to provide student housing for the Fredericksburg campus. The entire property has been previously developed, and, to the west, the property borders the Mary Washington Hospital complex. Eagle Village II is part of the “Fall Hill / Mary Washington Hospital” Land Use Planning District. The Comprehensive Plan identifies the primary goal for this planning area to be the expansion of the Mary Washington Hospital campus. The UMW Frederickburg campus is separated from the planning area by US-1 and is in the “University / College Heights” planning area. There are two recommendations in the Comprehensive Plan that impact the Eagle Village II property: • Provide for the continued development of medical offices and support services on MWH Medicorp / Mary Washington Hospital medical campus. • Support redevelopment of shopping centers along the US-1 Bypass into more productive and efficient mixed use developments, as shown in the JumpStart! report. For the Land Use Planning within the “University / College Heights” District, the plan made the following recommendations: • Continue to work with the University of Mary Washington regarding any adverse impacts on the surrounding community, such as parking and the need for student housing; and, • Improve pedestrian linkages between downtown activity centers and the University and its surrounding neighborhoods.

LOCATION The Alum Spring site is a 34.7 acre parcel located less than one mile southwest of the Fredericksburg campus. It has frontage on the Route 1 Bypass to the West and Greenbriar Drive to the east. Surrounding uses include transitional office, single family residential, high density residential, and recreational in the cityowned Alum Springs Park. The site is almost entirely wooded.

CHAPTER 4 - UMW LANDHOLDINGS

NATURAL CONDITIONS Development of the Alum Spring property is complicated by extreme slopes and impaired access across a large portion of the site. Topography generally falls from west to east, with three large natural swales with steep side slopes running in this direction and breaking apart otherwise developable portions of the site. Steep slopes also bound Hazel Run, which runs along the southeastern edge of the site and separates it from Alum Spring Park. As a result of the topographical constraints, only a six acre continuous section on the south end of the site and a five acre continuous section on the north end of the site are reasonably developable and accessible. As described previously, slopes below 10 percent a generally preferred for standard development, though slopes between 10 percent and 25 percent may allow for some types of development but prohibit large areas for parking and large building footprints without excessive costs for grading. Following this logic, a third area of about five acres at the center of the site and with slopes generally in the 10 percent to 25 percent range could allow for some development, though access to Route 1 is limited. Further analysis of topography and other natural characteristics of this area should be performed before a recommendation on development potential is made.

S TA F F O R D C O U N T Y A N D U M W Stafford County is located in northern Virginia, bordered by the City of Fredericksburg and the Rappahannock River to its south. Part of an original British settlement along the Potomac River, it is named for Staffordshire, England. Rich with history, the county claims ties to the Founding Fathers, was occupied by more than 100,000 troops during the Civil War, and also was home to the late-19th century artist Gari Melchers. In 2009, Forbes Magazine listed Stafford County as the 12th Highest Income County in the United States. The estimated population of Stafford County in 2007 was 124,117, a 33 percent increase over its population in the 2000 Census. Stafford County ranks among the fastest growing counties in the US, and since 1960 its population has doubled every 20 years. This growth is troubling because, while it can generate prosperity, it comes with development pressures that affect the community, such as traffic and increased need for public services. Given the current economic conditions and historic recession, it will be very important for the University to monitor the next update to the Stafford County Comprehensive Plan in regards to their Stafford County land holdings.

Life Care / Retirement Community – areas for the continuing care of elderly, providing for transitional housing progressing from independent living in various dwelling units, to nursing home care, where all related uses are located on the same lot or adjacent lots (which includes lots separated by a public right-of-way). The community may include life care facilities that provide services integral to the personal and therapeutic care of the residents thereof and shall be licensed and regulations as a home for adults under Section 63.1 of the Code of Virginia, as amended, or any successors legislation. Such districts are to be located only where approved water and sewage are available and where transportation systems are adequate. Institutional – areas designated for development that serves a public or social function, often community-wide or regional in nature. This includes, but is not limited to, hospitals, schools, and public buildings.

The current Stafford County Comprehensive Plan anticipates that Stafford County has land to absorb 7,165 additional housing units within the current Urban Services Boundary. With the addition of the 2019 Expansion another 2,089 housing units could be added. Within rural land uses the plan anticipates that another 11,161 housing units will be constructed. The Foundations land holdings are not expected to provide housing units. The Stafford County Comprehensive Plan also anticipates that over 5.5 million square feet of industrial space will be constructed within the current USA. It expects another three million square feet of industrial space to be added with the 2019 USA Expansion.

There are several issues to be taken into consideration when considering the future of the Foundation’s real estate holdings in Stafford County:  The county is likely to see continued population growth, and, eventually, there will be increased demand for housing;  Proximity to DC and Richmond make Stafford County an attractive commercial location because of its affordability; and,  The county is supportive of expansion the UMW Stafford campus, having highlighted the Foundation’s properties as institutional uses in their Land Use Mapping.

S TA F F O R D E A S T A N D S TA F F O R D W E S T P R O P E R T I E S The Stafford East and Stafford West Properties are located in Stafford County near the Stafford campus, approximately 7.5 miles from the UMW Fredericksburg campus. These two properties offer a host of opportunities for the Foundation and the University. Located near VA State Route 17, they are not part of the current Urban Services Area. These properties may be absorbed into the 2019 USA, if it is adopted as proposed in the Stafford County Comprehensive Plan. It will be important for the Foundation to have a full understanding of the utility services that are available near these properties, as well as the capacities for connections to existing services. The Stafford East and Stafford West properties are not contiguous. Also, the Stafford East property is separated from the Stafford campus by two parcels on the opposite side of Holly Corner Road.

CHAPTER 4 - UMW LANDHOLDINGS

Stafford County, especially curbing sprawl and the overextension of public services. One tool that is utilized in the Comprehensive Plan is the Urban Services Area (USA). This boundary establishes the area to which the county is directing growth. Expansion of the USA in the year 2019 will be dependent upon future actions of the Board of Supervisors to extend public infrastructure and services to those areas. The requirements for Urban Development Areas within the USA were adopted in 2011. In order to comply with state guidelines, these areas must be able to accommodate a decade of projected growth and will develop at a density of at least four dwelling units per gross acre and a commercial intensity of at least 0.4 FAR. The actual type mix and maximum intensity recommended will vary from one location to the next. There are two types of Urban Development Areas that may be applicable to the Foundation’s real estate holdings in Stafford County:


162

On the Stafford East property, almost 66 acres have slopes of greater than 10 percent, leaving an area of about 117 acres for accessible, economically viable development. While some construction can occur in slopes up to 25 percent, slopes beyond 25 percent will begin to complicate building layout, staging, and road construction, and thus increase the cost of development. On the Stafford West property, a larger percentage of the parcel has characteristics that complicate development. The western border of much of the property is a creek, which may present environmental challenges and is likely bordered by a flood plain. This parcel has areas of grades greater than 25 percent and is densely wooded. The larger buildable area of the Stafford West property lies to the east, with access off of Clark Patton Road. Seventy-seven acres of area with moderate slopes under 10 percent would be an attractive parcel for residential development. However, it appears that this portion of the property cannot be fully accessed without some sort of easement. As well, Parcel 35-23 provides another area of low slopes, but its most viable access comes from the northwest via Jack Ellington Road. It is unlikely that the two buildable portions could be connected and developed as one property, as the linkage would necessitate a costly bridge for vehicular access between them.

U T I L I Z A T I O N

ROOM UTILIZATION A room utilization analysis seeks to demonstrate how well scheduled rooms (classrooms and class labs) perform in terms of use – measured in both hours scheduled and seats occupied. This quantitative method forms the framework for a more complex understanding of space use and can be applied to make decisions about space needs and renovation priorities. Targets for use have been developed by the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV) and are applied to all Virginia public institutions regardless of school size or mission. Given that the University of Mary Washington is a smaller liberal arts university, this study recommends different targets that better relate to UMW’s goals. At UMW, this analysis has shown classrooms and class labs are well used on average, though some programs are more strained for resources than others. The use of classrooms and class labs over time also identifies opportunities in the schedule for higher utilization. Though there is an opportunity for greater utilization levels in current facilities (which translates to more student FTEs added over time), many cultural changes would be required to achieve the targeted performance. The following classroom and class lab utilization results are based upon the Fall 2009 course schedules. This data was the most current when Burt Hill considered the learning environment utilization. Typically, the fall semester receives the greatest stress in class and lab requests by faculty. During the 2009 academic year, Monroe Hall, an original UMW campus structure, was offline due to a major building renovation. The building housed several general teaching classrooms and a two class labs. The University employed the use of two temporary structures (the Annexes) that provided a similar quantity of classrooms and class labs while Monroe was offline. Therefore, the overall campus-wide classroom and class lab utilization during the Fall 2009 academic semester will be fairly consistent if Monroe Hall was online. Likewise, the same methodology can be applied to Fall 2013, with Monroe Hall and the Annexes online, while Chandler Hall will be offline due to the construction of the proposed new Campus Center.

C H A P T E R 5 - C A M P U S U T I L I Z AT I O N

A N A LY S I S O F S PA C E N E E D S In addition to reviewing existing space use, Burt Hill compared the University’s space guidelines with the Society for College and University Planning (SCUP) space standards. SCUP is a national community made up of higher education leaders that facilitate opportunities for its member to share best practices about integrated planning for higher education. The goal of this analysis is to determine space requirements based upon current and projected Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs), compared to the existing space provided. By understanding how the University’s campuses are currently over or under utilizing space, better decisions can be made for future renovations and new construction. This analysis will identify the space use discrepancies and recommend methods to right-size the academic departments and the associated support spaces. In the case of non-learning environments, additional comparisons were made between UMW and its peer institutions.

NON-LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS UTILIZATION SPREADSHEET

NON-LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS The information used to produce the non-learning environments spreadsheet and narratives was gathered from the 2009 Room Inventory provided Burt Hill by UMW. Additional data and room use information was collected from the Virginia public four-year institution spreadsheet, the Society for SCUP 2007 Campus Facilities Inventory, and the Institute of Education Sciences, Postsecondary Education Facilities Inventory and Classification Manual (FICM) 2006. ROOM USE 100: CLASSROOMS A classroom is defined by FICM as a room that is used primarily for instructional class and is not tied to a specific subject or discipline by equipment in the room or the configuration of the space. Examples of this room type are general purpose classrooms, lecture halls, seminar rooms, and other instructional spaces not set up as teaching laboratories. UMW has an adequate number of classroom spaces as compared to SCUP and their peer institutions. To further maximize utilization of classroom spaces on campus, all classrooms within each academic building should be generic spaces that can be used by all departments. 20 18

UMW is significantly above average in this category from the perspective of both its peer institutions and SCUP. Based on data from similar academic institutions, this larger number is due to the amount of dedicated square footage required for the science labs and specialized lab space required for the fine and performing arts programs. 16 14 12 10

On the UMW Fredericksburg campus there is really only one building that has dedicated study space, the Simpson Library. There are no spaces within the Woodard Campus Center devoted to individual or group study and only minimal space within a few of the academic buildings, including Trinkle, Combs, and Pollard Halls. There is also nominal study space dedicated for studying in a few of the residence halls on campus. There appears to be a lack of balanced study space across the Fredericksburg campus.

UMW has a lack of space available for independent research projects. Dedicated research lab space that was originally located within Jepson Science Center was converted to instructional lab space and offices. Currently dedicated science labs are scheduled throughout the day for classes. When classes are not in session the rooms are open for unscheduled student use. This leaves no space or time available for independent research projects. Also, there is no additional room within the building to add new research space. In order to gain a small amount of research space for faculty and students, storage rooms have been converted into research space.

Both Lee and George Washington Halls have numerous administrative offices, office services, and conference rooms. Faculty offices can be found within all of the academic buildings as well as 1201 Williams Street and 1004 College Avenue. Also included within the NASF are the office spaces that are located within Centre Court and the Alumni Executive Center. Some of UMW’s peers may outsource their publications, graphic, and web design departments, which in our opinion may be why the office quantity is higher at UMW than some of the other schools.

Also included are the support spaces, kitchen, walk-in freezers, dishwashing rooms, etc. There are two main dining facilities for student on the Fredericksburg campus: Seacobeck Hall and the Eagles Nest in the Woodard Campus Center. Seacobeck Hall is the campus’ traditional “all-you-can-eat” facility that has three themed rooms. The Eagles Nest is an a la carte style facility featuring several food stations. Other options for students are the Underground, located in Lee Hall, and the Eagle Express cart, which is only available during the warmer weather of the spring and fall. At peak times during the lunch and dinner rush it is difficult to find a seat in both Seacobeck Hall and the Eagles Nest. This explains the apparent shortage of space devoted to food service. Flexible course scheduling could alleviate the rush, but any student enrollment increase will require additional dining seats.

The Anderson Center, currently under construction, will help in the future to provide an assembly space for larger events.

UMW has very little dedicated lounge / gathering space within the buildings on campus. There are lounge spaces provided within the residence halls but most are not adequately furnished to provide a friendly environment.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON MASTER PLAN

UTILIZATION CLASSROOMS AND CLASS LABS

PREFACE The following classroom and class lab utilization results are based upon UMW’s Fall 2009 course schedules. This data was the most current when the learning environment utilization was initiated. Typically, the fall semester receives the greatest stress in class and lab requests by faculty. As mentioned previously, Monroe Hall was offline for renovations at this time and the Annexes made up for the lost teaching classrooms and class lab spaces. This substitution allowed Burt Hill to calculate use as if Monroe were still active. Additionally, this philosophy can be applied to Fall 2013 when Chandler hall will be offline during construction of the new Campus Center. HOW UTILIZATION RATES ARE CALCULATED Per room utilization rates are composed of two factors – the amount of time a room is used and the average stations occupied. Target use levels are assigned to each factor as a function of availability. SCHEV has identified an “extended day” timetable, which assumes courses could be scheduled within a 12-hour window (read 8:00 am – 8:00 pm) per day, 60 hours per week. Breaks between courses and other factors prevent a full 60 hours of room use each week; therefore, 50 hours are assumed available for scheduling. Available seats vary per room.

SCHEV has established the following targets for room use:

CLASSROOMS: 40 hours per week (80% of 50 hrs) 60% available seats CLASS LABS: 24 hours per week (48% of 50 hrs) 75% available seats The composite of these factors is Contact Hours per Station – the units Utilization is measured in. Given the above, the target Contact Hours per Station established by SCHEV is the following:

CLASSROOMS: 50 hours (80%) x 60% seats = 24 Contact Hours per Station CLASS LABS: 50 hours (48%) x 75% seats = 18 Contact Hours per Station The above Contact Hours per Station values represent target utilization for each classroom and class lab respectively within the Virginia state system, typically expressed as 100 percent. When these values are measured for each room, they are evaluated as a percentage of these targets.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

These targets are applied to all Virginia public institutions and do not adequately address the needs of a smaller liberal arts university such as UMW. Furthermore, the “extended day” timetable does not accurately reflect the peak use times between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm at UMW. Low evening use will unnaturally deflate utilization rates when rooms may be well used during the day. Planning must deal with the peak conditions and current culture or scheduling habits. The SCHEV targets also do not address the liberal arts model central to UMW’s mission. A liberal arts education is typically inquiry and debate intended to encourage and stimulate critical thinking. The goal is to develop each student’s ability to think rationally using a host of general knowledge. This form of learning usually requires smaller learning groups, more direct contact with tenured faculty, and more choice or freedom in course offerings. Liberal arts models impact use by requiring more small rooms, small class sizes, and flexibility in scheduling. Targeting a high utilization level assumes most variables can be controlled, which limits flexibility in scheduling. Also, high targets assume the current inventory is well suited to meet a university’s curricular needs, which is not always the case. The current inventory is a significant challenge to the liberal arts model as well as campus culture since there is a perception that classrooms are currently overused and more space is necessary to accommodate current demand. This study evaluates the utilization capacity for classrooms to identify the maximized model of use. This may mean slightly larger class sizes to on average better fill current classrooms.


173

CLASSROOMS: 30 hours per week (60% of 50 hrs) 67% available seats CLASS LABS: 20 hours per week (40% of 50 hrs) 80% available seats In classrooms, this study proposes that slightly more seats be occupied on average. Although the University aims for small class sizes, they also hope to maximize their classroom resources while still maintaining student comfort, ease of seat reconfigurations, and instructor movement throughout the space. The target time use has been lowered to reflect a density of room use between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm. This concept is expanded for class labs where a lower time use is proposed to allow more prep-time between classes. Typically, class labs have specialty equipment and materials that need to be modified during nonclass times that are greater than the changes required in a standard classroom. Therefore, less time is targeted for class lab scheduled use. This study proposes that class lab seats be better filled on average. Seats in labs generally occupy larger areas than those in standard classrooms and therefore, student comfort is more easily achieved. Also, lab seats are generally more expensive due to the amount of area dedicated and type of specialty work being done in such spaces. Therefore, higher target station occupancy rates in class labs are appropriate. Given the recommended targets above, the Contact Hours per Station can be revised as follows:

CLASSROOMS: 50 hours (60%) x 67% seats = 20.1Contact Hours per Station CLASS LABS: 50 hours (40%) x 80% seats = 16 Contact Hours per Station

UTILIZATION RATES FOR EXISTING CLASSROOMS AND CLASS LABS UMW has 110 instructional spaces: 61 classrooms and 49 class labs. A handful of other spaces (those not listed as classroom or class lab) do hold instruction, though scheduled use of these spaces is minimal and therefore not included. Below is a table identifying the current utilization rates for all classrooms and class labs at UMW as a percentage of the SCHEV target. Also shown is the utilization as a percentage of the recommended target: (Refer to Appendix for table listing all classrooms, the percent of SCHEV target, and percent of the Burt Hill target‌) Overall, classrooms are better utilized than class labs. Classrooms more often exceed, meet, or come close to target utilization rates. A couple of class labs greatly exceed all targets, although utilization is lower on average. This is most likely due to high levels of specialization as well as single department ownership of spaces.

CLASSROOMS: Avg 16.72 Contact Hours per station (31% below SCHEV target, 17% below BH target) CLASS LABS: Avg 7.17 Contact Hours per station (60% below SCHEV target, 55% below BH target) These values preliminarily indicate that there is capacity for increased use on campus in the future, though a more detailed analysis identifies some limitations to that finding. Jepson Hall poses one such challenge. Average use in Jepson for both time use and stations occupied appears to be near targets, which is a function of a few over-used rooms balancing out several under-used rooms (in terms of Contact Hours per Station). Jepson 113 and 214 track utilization rates significantly over the target. These rooms handle lab coursework for introductory biology and introductory chemistry, respectively. Introductory biology labs are also held in room 110, which is below target utilization and could take some of the scheduling pressure off of 113. Similarly, like-coursework could be better distributed among the available resources, assuming all other factors (such as faculty availability) could be achieved.

The other challenge facing Jepson Hall rooms is a high level of specialization. Many low-utilized rooms in Jepson serve a specific function and are set up to best address that scientific discipline. For example, Room 310 is used for biochemistry (one course). Room 211 is for physical chemistry (one course). Room 405 is for mineralogy. Anatomy labs are held in Room 102 (two courses). The set-up times, specialized materials, and furnishings layout in the anatomy lab make it ill-suited for any other discipline to use as an instructional space. Due to a lack of dedicated research space, many of these labs are also used for both faculty and student research, which is not an ideal condition. Although there appears to be capacity in under-utilized rooms in Jepson Hall, these rooms cannot accept significant increases in use without a detailed use analysis to combine like-functions, potential curriculum restructuring to increase efficiency, and culture changes. The Jepson Hall example indicates that further detailed analysis should be conducted at the building or program level in conjunction with future campus development. NOTE: Utilization is especially low for class labs because of rooms categorized as class labs and not being scheduled. Utilization improves to 8.57 (47 percent SCHEV, 53 percent BH) when unscheduled rooms are removed, which identifies an underlying underutilization.

C H A P T E R 5 - C A M P U S U T I L I Z AT I O N

A great many variables exist in classroom scheduling, and placing restrictions on flexibility to handle those variables puts strain on the scheduling system at any institution. Therefore, a lower utilization rate is recommended, which better aligns with a flexible liberal arts model and for when UMW has peak scheduling.

This chart also indicates that use could be better spread among a department’s rooms. Often a curriculum study is required to identify potential opportunities for increased efficiency. Purposeful scheduling aimed at improving time use of current facilities can alleviate moments of strain in the schedule and better utilize under-used rooms.

The remainder of the class labs generally fall below the targets, which indicates under-use across the board except for a couple outliers. High levels of specialization in some spaces may be driving the reduced use, such as labs configured for a particular study or instructional labs also being used for student and faculty research. Many class labs are required for a program to be successful regardless of how often or well they are utilized, such as performance spaces.

Also of note is consistency of use. The data seems to indicate that rooms scheduled across departments are better used than those owned by any single department. Though a room may be used across similar departments, the effort of coordinating and scheduling different departmental activities in one room leads to better use.

For class labs, the SCHEV target for time use is shown at 24 hours and the Burt Hill recommended target is shown at 20 hours. A couple of science rooms are being used significantly past the SCHEV target. These rooms host primarily lab sections of introductory science courses and are practically in constant use. Jepson 113 is in use for the most minutes per week, which is surprising especially since the room is not even scheduled on Fridays. These high-end outliers are examples of over-use.

For classroom spaces, the SCHEV target for time use (40 hours) as well as the Burt Hill recommended target (30 hours) are also shown. Note that very few classrooms meet the SCHEV target for time use, though many are performing well against the Burt Hill recommended target.

Often rising to the top are classrooms in Combs Hall. Recent renovations have made these rooms more desirable. The departments housed in Combs use their classrooms fairly well and cannot experience significant growth without access to more classroom space, which could be addressed in more interdisciplinary classroom use.

C O M PA R I S O N: C L A S S S I Z E S TO R O O M C A PAC I T I E S Another factor in overall utilization performance is average station occupancy rates, or how many seats - on average - are being used when a room is in use. The following charts demonstrate the average station occupancy rates for classrooms (left) and class labs (right). Overall, the rooms are well or over filled on average. Most spaces exceed, meet, or are near the seat use targets, which indicates that when courses are scheduled, they are well enrolled for the size spaces available. Very few classrooms see low seat fill rates on average. When considering the entire classroom inventory, current seat use is meeting target expectations. duPont 205 shows as regularly overfilled. Facility data shows that this room has 25 stations, though courses in this room have 25-30 students enrolled. This indicates that the History Department needs to utilize a larger classroom for this coursework or enroll less students in these courses to achieve better station occupancy rates. When the seat fill surpasses the targets, flexibility is limited. Strain may be felt in scheduling. Personal comfort and fire safety may be compromised as well in such situations.

The science class labs achieving the highest station occupancy rates are those that do not have high time use levels. Jepson 102 and 407 are only used roughly five hours per week, but when they are used, they are overfilled with students. This indicates that the couple courses taught there are in high enough demand to perhaps necessitate extra sections taught at other times. This, of course, relies on the faculty’s ability to increase their teaching load and the program to be flexible enough to add extra sections. As identified for the classrooms, over filled rooms limit flexibility and potentially compromise personal comfort and safety, especially in a lab.

100%

100% AVERAGE PERCENTAGE OF SEATS USED

Class labs are also well used on average. Between Arts and Sciences department groups, the Sciences achieve better station occupancies. Arts programs typically require large, multi-functional spaces without clearly delineated “seats” such as ensemble rehearsal rooms and dance studios. The activities that typically take place in arts class labs also tend to require more area per student, so even though more students could fit into a room, the curriculum could not allow for more at certain times. Therefore, we see Visual and Performing Arts rooms in duPont and Pollard showing the lowest station occupancies, though these levels are most likely acceptable for the activities scheduled. Rooms used by multiple departments are consistently well filled.

COMBS 011

Most departments are achieving similar patterns of seat use. The Economics classroom in 1004 College Ave is not well filled, though this space is more remote from the center of campus. Jepson 100 also sees a lower station occupancy on average. Typically, science courses have their lecture component in this room. These courses are enrolled such that they can fit into the labs groups of roughly 20-24. No more than three sections meet for lecture at the same time, which keeps room seat fill rate low since the room can seat just over 100 students.

179 Pollard Hall (Music Department) tends to have the lowest average station occupancy rate when all the classrooms and class labs are aggregated. The study of music requires large spaces to meet programmatic needs. Instrumental practice requires a significant amount of area, depending on the instrument being practiced. Though a room could support a lot of students during a flute ensemble rehearsal, it cannot support nearly as many during a percussion ensemble rehearsal. Also, nearly half of the courses scheduled in Pollard have not been assigned a specific room as the instructor and student(s) typically negotiate a time and place to meet or practice. This is typical of music programs. Annex A and B are seeing high station occupancy rates. This load is temporary as Monroe Hall was under renovation at the time of data collection. Most of the Annex uses have already transferred back to Monroe now that the renovation is complete.

AVERAGE PERCENTAGE SEAT USED IN CLASS LABS PER BUILDING

The values shown in these charts need to be considered with the count of rooms in a building. Though George Washington Hall is showing the highest station occupancy rate, this value only represents one space that is used fairly infrequently. This also speaks to the importance of evaluating the findings as part of a larger picture: that time use and station occupancy alone do not indicate overall performance.

USE OVER TIME FOR CLASSROOMS AND CLASS LABS Perceptions of how rooms are used or what inventory is required are often based on moments of strain in the schedule – short periods of time where room availability is low and course offerings are most dense. By identifying these scheduling peaks, the associated valleys become opportunities to flatten the peak and use the available inventory more uniformly across the day and the week. More uniform use leads to less strain on scheduling and better perceptions of room availability.

In order to comfortably schedule more than 75 percent of the inventory, variables need to be under control to minimize the need for flexibility or chance of irregularities. There would need to be less choice in order to regulate use patterns. Curricula would need to be simpler and linear. All of these controls oppose a traditional liberal arts education based on choice and freedom in academic inquiry. The more liberal the educational model, the more space needs to be reserved for flexibility and variation. We feel that 75 percent inventory use is appropriate for UMW and its goals.

The following charts identify the amount of rooms used at any given time throughout the day for each day of the week. This study recommends that no more than 75 percent of the inventory be used during peak schedule hours (8:00 am – 5:00 pm). When more than 75 percent of the inventory is used, flexibility is limited and strain is felt in the schedule. SCHEV does not have a guideline for how many classrooms should be scheduled at any given time.

At the peak, more than 75 percent of the inventory is used at UMW. Peak use on main campus is between 9:00 am and 12:00 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Opportunities for increased utilization are before 9:00 am, over lunch Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and after 3:00 pm every day. Class labs are better used in the afternoon than the morning, and they are scheduled significantly less on Friday than any other day. Evening use for both classrooms and class labs could be increased, which would increase overall utilization levels.

This analysis was done by department FTE in order to recognize departmental control over space. The department FTE is representative of credits awarded in that discipline and does not equal the majors in that department. The sciences (Jepson Hall) currently represent 507.5 FTEs. If every learning environment in Jepson were optimized and met target levels for time use and station occupancy, the sciences could support an additional 365 FTEs within the current inventory. Since the perception is that Jepson is already undersized for the current enrollment, changes would have to be made at many levels to achieve this growth. Changes in culture, such as better use of the labs across disciplines and spreading instructional lab needs across rooms to increase individual lab usage, would be required. The science curriculum would also require evaluation to maximize existing room use. As discussed earlier in this report, many science labs are highly specialized or contain specific materials catered to one area of study, so efforts to use labs across science disciplines or spread the current load among more rooms may not be possible. A curriculum evaluation may shed light on opportunities for efficiency, but will not account for dramatic FTE increases alone. By replicating this process for all departments, the campus could see a growth of roughly 1,600 student FTEs in current facilities. Again, cultural changes would be required, such as the ability to schedule courses across departments. Looking at the whole campus, that cross-departmental scheduling to maximize resources could mean an increase in remoteness from faculty offices to classrooms and a greater potential need to transport educational materials across campus. If all general classrooms were to be scheduled across departments, a centralized scheduling system would need to be installed as well as centralized support for educational technologies, maintenance, etc. Cultural changes are not easily achieved on any campus and should be carefully considered prior to implementation. Any increase in FTEs has a direct relationship on overall head count. 1,600 additional FTEs equals roughly 1,700 more students, which has an impact on other areas of campus. Roughly 100 more faculty offices would be required to support the additional students, as well as over 1,000 dormitory beds, 330 dining hall seats, new structured parking opportunities, and a significant increase to campus administration services. Even though the instructional spaces can support significantly more students, the current limitations on campus as a whole will prevent dramatic growth.

S U M M A R Y: A N A LY S I S / C R I T I Q U E O F U T I L I Z A T I O N Overall, utilization rates at UMW are good when all factors are considered; though most rooms do not generally meet the SCHEV targets for utilization - a combination of time used and seats occupied. This finding indicates, in a broad sense, that the campus can support at least a small increase in students within the current learning environment inventory. The following rooms have been identified in this study as having the lowest utilization rates:

TOP TEN WORST PERFORMING ROOMS 1. 1004 College 108 (Classroom, Economics) 2. Pollard 108 (Class Lab, Music) 3. Dupont 219 (Class Lab, Theater) 4. Dupont 324 (Class Lab, Theater) 5. Combs 9 (Class Lab, Protective Services) 6. Jepson 405 (Class Lab, Physical Sciences) 7. Chandler 303 (Classroom, Business Administration) 8. Trinkle 243 (Classroom, Classics-Philosophy-Religion) 9. Jepson 310 (Class Lab, Physical Sciences) 10. Pollard 127 (Class Lab, Music) Most of these rooms can attribute their low utilization scores to low time use. In the case of music and theater, the low utilization rate is most likely the function of both low time use and low station occupancy rates. At any institution, there will be rooms that do not meet the utilization target due to their high level of specialization, remoteness from the campus center, or programmatic function. Therefore, the above spaces need to be reviewed to assess if the activities taking place there could be accommodated elsewhere and these spaces repurposed, or over-used spaces could alleviate scheduling pressures by placing some coursework in these rooms. Another means of increasing the utilization of these spaces is to consider crossdepartmental use. This means of scheduling is most effective for classrooms since they are typically generic in nature and more easily used between departments.

The following rooms have been identified in this study as having the highest utilization rates:

TOP TEN BEST PERFORMING ROOMS 1. Jepson 113 (Class Lab, Biology) 2. Jepson 214 (Class Lab, Physical Sciences) 3. Combs 213 (Classroom, Modern Foreign Language) 4. Annex A 109 (Classroom, Multiple Departments) 5. Combs 2 (Classroom, ELC) 6. Combs 322 (Classroom, ELC) 7. Chandler 301 (Classroom, Multiple Departments) 8. Combs 3 (Classroom, ELC) 9. Combs 114 (Classroom, Multiple Departments) 10. Combs 111 (Classroom, Multiple Departments) All of the above rooms are surpassing their target Contact Hours per Station values, which renders a utilization rate over 100 percent. Other than the two introductory science labs in Jepson, the rooms with the highest utilization rates are all classrooms, half of which are scheduled by multiple departments. This finding indicates that cross-departmental scheduling has a positive effect on utilization rates. The other classrooms on this list are in departments that have minimal to no use in class lab spaces, meaning more of their curriculum can be scheduled in their generic classroom spaces, leading to better utilization. In the case of the introductory science labs, these rooms are significantly over used and additional inventory or better use of the current inventory is recommended, especially in the case of Jepson 113, which is utilized more than twice its target without being scheduled on Fridays. The following rooms are not scheduled at all and could be better utilized, recoded to meeting/conference room to better represent the actual departmental activity, or removed from the learning environment inventory and repurposed:

This analysis evaluates, per room, how many seats are currently available, how much time is available, and what the target use levels for time and seats are. This determines the student FTE capacity if the entire inventory were optimized to meet target utilization.

C O N TA C T H O U R S P E R S TAT I O N Utilization shown as Contact Hours per Station aggregates the factors of time use and station occupancy, so each factor must be understood in order to affect change. The target use levels for each factor have been applied equally across the university, which intends to offset the varied needs of each program. As demonstrated with the sciences, this one-size-fits-all model of tracking utilization does not accurately reflect the varied pedagogies, space needs, and curriculums for all programs at a diverse liberal arts university such as UMW and detailed analysis will be required for programs within the scope of future campus projects. When utilization rates are averaged for an institution, generalities can be developed as a starting point for future planning. This utilization study has shown that overall, learning environment use is good on average. When rooms are scheduled, seats are generally being well filled. Though not always meeting the SCHEV targets, use tracks well against Burt Hill recommended targets, which consider UMW’s specific needs and culture. When considering the future and potential growth at UMW, the learning environments can support all growth scenarios described in this report. Other programmatic areas on a campus, such as dormitory facilities, faculty offices, dining halls, and administration are not in a position to support dramatic growth. The campus must be considered holistically in future planning.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON MASTER PLAN

CHAPTER 6 P A R K I N G

A N A L Y S I S

The following Parking Study has been prepared for the University of Mary Washington as part of an overall Comprehensive Master Plan (Master Plan) for the Fredericksburg campus*. UMW is preparing a Master Plan to determine the existing and proposed physical needs of the campus to successfully address the University’s planning objectives. The Master Plan will prioritize projects, including parking projects, for a ten-year period. Thus the planning horizon for this study is 2019, ten years after the Master Plan was initiated in 2009.

It should be noted that the Parking Study prepared as part of a Master Plan should ideally be examined as part of an overall Transportation Study as vehicular accessibility, circulation, multi-modal access and transportation management are all critical topics that should be considered as part of the overall parking needs equation. Thus, in the absence of a more comprehensive Transportation Study, general transportation assumptions were made and engineering judgment was applied. *This parking study is focused on the Fredericksburg campus and does not include parking conditions at any other satellite campus location.

C H A P T E R 6 - PA R K I N G A N A LY S I S

During the early stages of the Master Plan process, the University identified parking deficiencies and illegal parking as primary issues that should be addressed in the Parking Study. Thus, the primary objectives of this Parking Study have been to identify existing parking issues and recommend short-term solutions (if appropriate) and project future parking requirements aimed at addressing long-term parking requirements. This Parking Study also provides best practices information from other Universities that can be helpful to UMW in reviewing parking enforcement strategies and parking control devices to reduce illegal parking. This parking study does not examine parking compliance as part of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

PARKING POLICIES AND PERMITS Parking on the Fredericksburg campus is by permit only and is required of all vehicles parked on the campus (faculty / staff and students) and may be obtained through the UMW Parking Management System located on the Eagle Portal*. (Note: First year students are not permitted to have vehicles on campus except with written permission from the University’s Division of Public Safety). All vehicles using Fredericksburg campus facilities must be registered and display the appropriate decal or parking permit. The cost of parking decal is $200 for students per academic year**. The parking decal for faculty / staff, contractors, and visitors is free. The University identifies each parking lot on campus with a sign posted at the entrance of the lot bearing the lot number and name of parking type allocated to the lot. Table 2 shows the parking type and corresponding lot / decal color. Each parking type has regulations set by the University. For example vehicles belonging to faculty / staff should have a blue color decal to park legally in faculty / staff lots, parking in any other lot will be illegal and subject to a fine. Below are photographs of vehicles with decals and corresponding allocated.

PARKING INVENTORY The Fredericksburg campus has a current parking inventory of 1,664 parking spaces in 26 parking lots (including one on-street parking on Double Drive) and one structured garage across the length and breadth of the campus. The City of Fredericksburg provides on-street (un-metered) parking along College Avenue and Hanover Street. Parking is generally prohibited on most of the residential streets around the Campus. Additional information about parking outside of the campus boundaries is summarized in the Off-Campus Parking Survey section of this report. Below are photographs of vehicles four types of parking available to the campus constituents. CAMPUS LAND USE Figure 1 (previous page) shows a graphical representation of the Fredericksburg campus showing parking lots, academic, residential, sports/recreation buildings and supporting buildings / facilities. As shown in the figure, there is even dispersal of parking lots and other land uses except in the campus core area which is focused on landscape and the pedestrian environment. Parking lots are more concentrated to the north, south, east, and west of the campus, (mostly located at the fringes of the campus). Access to the parking lots is provided along Alvey Drive, Double Drive, Campus Drive, Thornton Street, Sunken Road, William Street, and Hanover Street. Each access road provides access to a limited number of parking lots.

PARKING OCCUPANCY A parking survey was conducted on Wednesday***, January 27, 2010, between 1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. and Thursday, January 28, 2010, between 9:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. The survey identified parking supply, occupancy and illegal parking****.

As Table 3 indicates, 1,238 parking occupancy representing 74 percent of total parking spaces during the AM peak; and 1,180 representing parking occupancy representing 71 percent of total parking spaces. As indicated on the table 45 vehicles were observed parked illegally during the AM peak and 21 during the PM peak because the decal color on the bumper or dashboard did not correspond with the designated parking lot color. (Note: Parking occupancy numbers include vehicles parked illegally).

The survey days were selected in consultation with representatives from the UMW Fredericksburg campus, and the idea was to select days free from any major campus events, which could have impacted the results of the survey. Generally, there were in incidents during the survey except for some illegal parking.

* Eaglelink Portal enables faculty / staff and students to obtain permits online ** Decals are prorated by the half year. If a student begins classes in the spring semester, the fee is $100. If a student drops during the fall semester and does not return in the spring, the student is refunded $100. *** The University confirmed that Wednesdays are the busiest on campus, when parking occupancies are expected to be highest. **** Illegal parking refers to vehicles parked in the wrong parking lot (i.e. where a vehicle with faculty / staff decal parks in a commuter student lot)

Peak parking occupancy refers to the number of parking spaces occupied during the AM and PM peak periods. Table 3, presents AM and PM peak hour occupancy by parking type. See Appendix 3 for detailed breakdown of parking occupancy by use, lot number and location. TA B LE 2 PA R K I N G TYP E AND LOT/D EC AL C OLOR ( 2010)

As Table 4 indicates, 71 spaces in College Heights and 44 spaces in College Terrace were occupied by UMW related vehicles were parked illegally on neighborhood streets.. On-campus peak parking demand in Table 3 was added to off-campus peak parking demand in Table 4 and the total divided by effective supply (85%) to obtain peak parking requirement as presented in Table 5 at bottom-right. As indicated in Table 5, total parking supply of 1,664 spaces will provide an excess of 72 spaces over current total peak parking requirement of 1,592 spaces. Thus the campus will provide adequate parking to meet peak parking requirement.

As indicated in Figure 2, the three “opportunity lots” have a total parking surplus of 138 spaces to meet the additional demand required by the 10 parking lots within the campus core area at near capacity. The ten lots (outside the five minute walking radius) have occupancy levels of 85 percent and the three “opportunity lots” have occupancy levels of between 40 percent and 80%. Campus wide parking occupancy was at 74 percent during the AM peak and 71 percent during the PM peak. Faculty / staff had the highest occupancy levels of 85 percent during the AM peak and 88 percent during the PM peak period. The effective parking supply of a parking facility is typically planned as 85 percent to 90 percent of the actual parking supply. Occupancy levels for each parking type (including faculty / staff) is within the effective parking supply of the campus.

SHORT TERM PARKING STRATEGIES • Reassigning parking spaces from the three “opportunity” parking lots (Lots: 10, 30 and 33) at the north and south ends of the campus to manage parking demand. • Parking enforcement by the Fredericksburg Police will serve as a deterrent to UMW students parking on residential neighborhood streets with “No UMW Student Parking” sign • Promoting the use of alternative modes of transportation (e.g., FRED, carpools, biking, walking, etc) may be beneficial to the University in the future.

PARKING DEMAND STUDY M A S T E R P L A N PA R K I N G C O N D I T I O N S

CAMPUS PLANS Future parking requirements and strategies were developed for both of the two population growth models. In the future campus population is expected to grow progressively from its current population of 4,650 to 5,356 (14%) by 2015 and to 7,905 (45%) by 2019. Future population growth and accompanying campus wide development in support of this growth may require additional parking to meet future demand. Table 6 below provides a summary of future total parking demand and average percentage growth for the 2015 and 2019 population growth models.

FUTURE PARKING NEEDS Population growth rates for Option 1 and 2 from Table 7 and parking occupancy rates from Table 3 were used as inputs for the parking demand analysis. Combining campus population growth rates with peak parking occupancy rates yields projected parking demand. Table 5 summarizes the results of the AM and PM peak projected parking demand analysis for 2015 and 2019. See Appendix 4 for detailed breakdown of projected parking demand by use, lot number and location. Total parking supply of 1,664 spaces provided by the University currently is inadequate to meet the future parking requirement of 1,780 spaces by 2015 and 2,214 spaces by 2019. Thus the University will experience a deficit of 116 parking spaces by 2015 and 550 parking spaces by 2019 campus wide.

Encouraging the use of alternative modes of transportation (e.g. vanpools, carpools, biking, walking, etc) by students and faculty / staff to reduce parking demand. A more detailed analysis would be required to determine specific transportation management measures to be recommended for the campus Making faculty / staff pay for parking will compliment future transportation management measures. Currently students are the only population category that pay for parking. Neighborhoods without the Resident Permit Parking (RPP) system should be encouraged to install the system for ease of enforcement. Where the permit parking system exists, for it to be enforceable residents should be encouraged to acquire the residential parking permits.

The best practices review is based on the following parking elements: • Parking Ratio • Walking Distance • Parking Allocation • Enforcement (Fines & Hours) • Parking Pricing • Parking Policies

PARKING RATIO Campus parking supply ratio refers to the number of parking spaces per campus population. The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Parking Generation recommends an average parking supply ratio of 0.33 spaces per school population at suburban sites and 0.22 spaces per school population at the urban sites. The table below indicates that the parking ratios for University of Mary Washington population are consistent with other universities as outlined by the Institute of Transportation Engineers.

A reduction of parking demand will free up more land for expanding opportunities for future academic, residential, supporting buildings / facilities and green space.

PARKING TYPE

PARKING BEST PRACTICES The best practices portion of this study is a review of parking practices used in other universities. The universities were selected based on comparable student enrollment and their suburban setting. The best practices also include a review of specific parking elements pertaining to some universities or standards. Comparable universities include University of North Carolina (Asheville), Millersville University of Pennsylvania, Missouri University of Science and Technology, East Carolina University, and Salisbury University (Maryland)

Compared to the following universities, the UMW provides approximately 27 parking spaces per 100 students: • • • • •

However these numbers should be considered in conjunction with other transportation-related factors including the mix of residential versus commuter students and general parking policies.

W A L K I N G D I S TA N C E Campus parking should be reasonably convenient for users or located as near as possible to major buildings or activity centers (i.e., lecture halls, libraries, etc). Walking is a major form of campus travel, and special attention should be given to pedestrian connections between parking areas and activity centers. Generally a walking distance of approximately 1,050 to 2,100 feet (or five to ten minutes) is recommended for university parking users. • •

National Parking Ratio Source: Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Transportation Planning Handbook Second Edition

Clemson University – Provides 83 parking spaces per 100 students Univ. of Virginia – Provides 66 parking spaces per 100 students Univ. of Georgia – Provides 55 parking spaces per 100 students Virginia State Univ. – Provides 45 parking spaces per 100 students East Carolina Univ. – Provides 36 parking spaces per 100 students

Virginia Tech – 28 percent of campus parking is within five minute walking radius from the central campus, and 72 percent is outside the five minute walk radius. Clemson University – 70 percent of campus parking is within five to seven minutes walk radius, and 30 percent is outside the five to seven minutes walk radius.

PARKING ALLOCATION Most universities allocate parking by use (i.e. faculty / staff, students, visitors, etc). It is important to determine who parks where for ease of managing and enforcement. Generally student parking is at greater distances from the campus core than faculty / staff or visitor parking.

The purpose of this report portion is to provide University of Mary Washington with useful information regarding parking best practices that will be helpful in its parking management practices as part of this campus planning process.

Note: Three universities in the Washington metropolitan area (Virginia Tech, Towson University, Virginia State) and Clemson University were also compared with University of Mary Washington to give the review a broader outlook.

Note: Information obtained from Clemson University Master Plan website

C H A P T E R 6 - PA R K I N G A N A LY S I S

LONG TERM PARKING STRATEGIES Future population growth and accompanying campus wide development in support of these two population growth models may require additional parking to meet future projected demand. The University should consider appropriate measures to expand existing parking facilities and/or build new ones to meet future parking requirements and/or consider specific transportation management measures aimed at reducing campus vehicle trips. The University may consider the following long-term parking strategies:


194

PARKING DEMAND STUDY M A S T E R P L A N PA R K I N G C O N D I T I O N S

PARKING ENFORCEMENT FINES/TIME Parking enforcement fines are used as a deterrent tool by universities for persons or vehicles who flout parking regulations on the campus. The table below shows average enforcement fines for selected parking violations of selected universities. The table at top-right indicates that most universities take some of these violations seriously for example altered or stolen permit attract very high fines. Most of the universities reviewed have a 24 hours, 365 days enforcement routine.

PARKING PRICING According to the Institute of Transportation of Engineers (ITE) Parking Generation (third edition), one of the most significant factors affecting parking demand could be the elasticity of demand to pricing. For example, if parking cost increased from $5/day to $6/day (20 percent increase), parking demand might be expected to decrease by about 6 percent. The table at mid-right shows average permit parking rates (annual) for faculty / staff and students of surveyed universities, including: Virginia Tech, Towson University, Virginia State, and Clemson University. As indicated in the table, student parking permit pricing at UMW is higher than most of the comparable universities except for Towson. Whiles faculty / staff in the other universities pay for parking, they park for free at UMW. Thus UMW has the opportunity to charge faculty / staff for parking to generate additional revenue without having to charge students more for parking.

PARKING POLICIES The regulation of parking is important to manage parking demand and also to shape travel behavior and campus design. It is also important that campus parking does not impact neighborhood residential streets and adjacent public roadways. Parking on most university campuses is by permit only and is required of all vehicles parked on the campus including visitors. All vehicles parked on campus must be registered and display the appropriate parking permit. Where metered parking is provided then the parked vehicles are not required to have a parking permit.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

The following are some of the unique regulations instituted by universities to regulate who gets to park on the campus: • •

University of Mary Washington - First-year students are not permitted to have vehicles on campus except with written permission from the University’s Division of Public Safety. University of North Carolina (Asheville) - Freshmen students are NOT permitted to park cars on campus for the duration of their freshman year (fall and spring semesters). This includes transfer freshmen who have less than 25 semester hours. (Note: Freshmen can seek a waiver to this policy by completing a “Freshman Waiver Application”.) Millersville University of Pennsylvania - Resident students with less than 30 credits and less than 21 years of age are given the last priority for resident parking spaces. (Note: Students covered by this restrictions must demonstrate a compelling need to secure a permit to have a car on campus.)

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON MASTER PLAN

CHAPTER 7 M A S T E R P L A N R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S

This chapter illustrates solutions to the primary needs of projected enrollment, faculty, and departmental growth; and renovations to facilities on both Stafford and Fredericksburg campuses in order to achieve the goals set for the Strategic Plan; as well as bring facilities to a good or excellent condition. This chapter makes recommendations that will enhance the small liberal arts experience the Fredericksburg campus provides as well as the anticipated growth of the Stafford campus.

Over the years, private gifts to the University of Mary Washington and the Foundation have supported scholarships, academic programs, student activities, campus buildings, campus enhancements, and special events for UMW alumni. At times, private gifts have included gifts of property. This section also reviews the planning and zoning considerations of the universities real estate holdings, how they could be developed, and potential development options for the properties.

The renovation of eight residence halls will enhance the Fredericksburg student experience and provide a strengthened sense of community. Construction of five new residence halls, all in place of existing halls in poor condition, will provide the space needed for the renovation of sacred residence halls and to accommodate enrollment growth within a 15-year period. A renovated or newly constructed Arts Center will provide an enhanced performance venue for the campus and community as well as promote collaboration between the academic departments sharing the facility. Extending Campus Walk and creating a pedestrian bridge across William Street will provide a connection between the main campus and the University Apartments and make the daily crossing of William Street safer and accessible to all students. A new campus center and board dining facility will re-image and strengthen the heart of campus, unite and centralize student life functions and services (currently scattered across the campus in remote locations) and provide “rightsized� dining functions.

Since there are little, if any, on-campus locations for potential new buildings to be constructed, the re-purposing of existing buildings is inevitable. The creation of a new campus center allows Woodard to be renovated and re-purposed as the College of Business. A renovation and addition to Mercer Hall is another high-priority project that hinges on the razing of Chandler Hall to construct a new Campus Center. Located within close proximity to Palmieri Plaza, Mercer Hall has the potential to serve as a flagship building for the Psychology Department. Parking availability, although seen as a nuisance by many constituents of the campus, is a compromise the campus has had to make to maintain the pedestrian qualities of campus. The study documented in this report indicates the campus provides adequate parking supply to meet current parking occupancy needs. However, there are still parking-related issues regarding complaints about UMW related vehicles parking illegally on residential neighborhoods streets, and the inadequacy of on-campus parking supply within the campus core area which warrant the construction of structured parking along College Avenue. This would also provide an opportunity to relocate the University Police to a more centralized and accessible location along College Avenue. The proposed Parking Deck and surface lots at GW and the new Campus Center will accommodate projected enrollment increases through 2019.

Substantial growth in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields in the past few years has lead to significant enrollment growth in the sciences as well as a need for additional flexible research space. To accommodate this growth, the university is constructing the Convergence Center which will be a technologically rich building with flexible spaces for academic use related to technology and research. This plan also proposes an addition be provided to Jepson Hall to accommodate the growth in the sciences. The Simpson Library should also be renovated with the goal of providing an enhanced center for teaching and learning complete with group study rooms, enhanced research areas, and varied groups of comfortable seating throughout the building.

The University of Mary Washington Stafford Campus, located in Stafford County, provides a place for working adults to take night and weekend classes, complete a bachelor’s degree, and/or earn a master’s degree. The Stafford campus has proven to be a valuable asset to encouraging and continuing growth within the region. According to the Stafford County Comprehensive Plan the county is likely to see continued population growth and eventually there will be increased demand for professional educational development. Although the current buildings located on the UMW Stafford campus are sufficient to support current needs, this plan identifies a future building site should the need for additional space arise within the next ten years.

C H A P T E R 7 - R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S

The option shown on the previous page indicates a new building and lawn. Additional parking for approximately 350 cars would also need to be provided in the form of a parking deck located on the upper lot. A new academic building in this location would provide frontage along Warrenton Road while creating a more intimate, academic quadrangle that could revitalize and connect the other two buildings on campus. This is a subtle gesture in an effort to create a more academic campus feel.

PLANNED PROJECTS E X E C U T I V E

S U M M A R Y

The following proposed projects represent the primary recommendations of the Master Plan that aid in the physical manifestation of the University’s Strategic Plan. The recommendations are the result of regular meetings with the Steering Committee, an understanding of the University’s existing physical attributes, the need for learning and non-learning space as a result of current utilization and anticipated growth, and the objectives of the Strategic Plan. These recommendations will help guide the University to becoming the best public liberal arts institution in the United States. The following projects have been developed to respect the existing University’s scale, architectural character, and open space, while improving accessibility, program efficiency, and flexibility for ever-evolving pedagogies.

JEPSON HALL The Steering Committee defined an addition to Jepson Hall as a high priority to support the fast growing physical and biological science programs. This four-story addition will house classrooms on the first floor, multipurpose labs on the second, labs and classrooms on the third, and faculty offices and meeting rooms on the fourth floor. Small, surgical walkways will need to be made to connect the existing interior corridors with the new addition. Several small lab storage spaces will need to be taken offline to accommodate this connector; however, the spaces will be relocated adjacent to the new connector or within the new addition.

COLLEGE OF BUSINESS Since there are little, if any, on-campus locations for potential new buildings to be constructed, the repurposing of existing buildings is inevitable. The creation of a new campus center on the existing Chandler Hall site allows Woodard to be renovated and repurposed as the College of Business.

CAMPUS CENTER Transformational projects such as the new Campus Center will create a new campus gateway along College Avenue and provide an enhanced facility for all student life as well as centralized board dining functions. A new four-story brick and cast stone structure will replace the existing Chandler Hall to provide a centrally located student life hub featuring right-sized retail and board dining functions, student organizations and student life suites, office space, meeting rooms, ballroom, spirit store, and lounge space. In order to initiate this project, Business and Psychology Departments will have to be temporarily relocated. A plan for this relocation is provided in Chapter 7. Site work will feature plazas off College Avenue and Ball Circle, potential for a rain garden, and a more functional loading dock. SEACOBECK HALL Since campus dining functions will be relocated within the new Campus Center, options for repuposing or reprogramming Seacobeck Hall require further exploration.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

MERCER HALL RENOVATION The renovation of and addition to Mercer Hall is a high-priority project that will hinge on the razing of Chandler Hall to construct the new Campus Center. Located within close proximity to Palmieri Plaza, Mercer Hall has the potential to serve as a flagship building for the Psychology Department. RENEWAL OF EXISTING ACADEMIC BUILDINGS The renewal of existing academic buildings is an important component of the Master Plan as well. Phased renovations in Goolrick, duPont, Pollard, Melchers, and Trinkle Halls are needed to maintain the integrity of these buildings and their efficient operation for future use. The plan will also help meet the University’s needs for physical space, preserve its most memorable buildings and landscapes, and enhance the beauty and utility of the Fredericksburg Campus.


203

Providing a new academic quad surrounded by a series of new appropriately scaled residence halls toward the south end of Jefferson Square will instill a renewed sense of community while meeting the University’s need for future residential bed space. It will also reclaim and preserve the iconic campus green space of Jefferson Square. R E V I TA L I Z I N G T H E A R T S One of the challenges of this Master Plan has been to mediate between the need to add new facilities and the need to maintain and support existing buildings. Several programming meetings with the Theater, Dance, Music, Studio Art, and Art History Departments as well as UMW administration led to the creation of department-specific programs establishing future space needs. All departments accepted the programs and chose two possible options for physical growth: (1) renovation of the existing Arts Complex with a modern “courtyard” in-fill, or (2) design of a new building for Theater, Dance, and Music Departments on Sunken Road and William Street and moving Studio Art and Art History Departments to renovated space in Pollard and duPont Halls. A more detailed technical study is recommended and should reflect a more detailed analysis of spatial relationships and program needs based on the available budget.

T H E S TA F F O R D C A M P U S The University of Mary Washington Stafford campus has proven to be a valuable asset in providing educational opportunities to the residents of Stafford County as well as programs for graduate and professional studies. The county anticipates continued population growth, and as such, there will be increased demand for professional educational development. Although the current buildings located on the Stafford campus are sufficient to support current needs, this plan has identified a potential location for a future building should the need for additional space arise. The site identified will provide UMW with the opportunity to transform the Stafford campus into a more welcoming academic village.

THE SIMPSON LIBRARY A renovation of the Simpson Library is also recommended as it will provide an enhanced center for teaching and learning complete with group study rooms, enhanced research and special collection areas, and varied groups of comfortable seating throughout the building. The renovation will consist of cosmetic upgrades as well as minor reconfigurations of existing interior spaces to accommodate the needs of a learning commons. The addition of the Information Technology Convergence Center to the Simpson Library should accentuate the need for as well as inform the renovation of the library. It is also recommended that a study be completed to review the structural integrity of the building’s exterior masonry construction. Cracks in the exterior masonry walls were visible after the earthquake that effected the area in August of 2011.

PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE A unique quality of the UMW Fredericksburg campus is the strong pedestrian connections that have evolved between buildings and exterior spaces. As the campus continues to grow in a linear fashion (University Apartments to the south, Eagle Village to the north), it is important to continue to maintain these pedestrian connections and keep vehicular traffic flow along the perimeter of the campus. Creating a pedestrian bridge between the new development around Jefferson Square and the renovated University Apartments will extend the Campus Walk while creating a pedestrian-friendly link across William Street .

PARKING Parking availability, although seen as lacking by many constituents, is a compromise the University has had to make to maintain the pedestrian qualities of the Fredericksburg campus. The study documented in this report indicates the Fredericksburg campus provides adequate parking supply to meet current parking occupancy needs. However, there are still parking related issues along the surrounding residential neighborhoods streets, and the inadequacy of oncampus parking supply within the campus core area. These issues, along with projected future enrollment increases, warrant the construction of structured parking along College Avenue. A new parking structure in this location would also provide an opportunity to relocate the University Police to a more centralized and accessible location along College Avenue. INFRASTRUCTURE & deferred MAINTENANCE In addition to these transformational projects, campus-wide recommendations to improve accessibility, life safety, building condition, landscape, and campus infrastructure on both campuses have been addressed. THE UMW HISTORIC PRESERVATION PLAN The Burt Hill team developed this Master Plan to respond to UMW’s growing need for physical space. Upon its completion, UMW’s Historic Preservation Plan should also inform the recommendations within this document. Our hope, as the University evolves over the next decade, is that both plans will inform physical development to complement a highly progressive, historically unique, and ambitious liberal arts institution.

C H A P T E R 7 - R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S

JEFFERSON SQUARE Creating combinations of uses within existing precincts and within buildings that support UMW as an integrated community are goals of both the Master and Strategic Plans. Redeveloping and rejuvenating Jefferson Square is a perfect opportunity for this type of transformation. Replacing Bushnell Hall with a building whose program focuses on celebrating the connections between living and learning would allow for the creation of an honors college or other featured academic experience. Creating these unique academic environments also aids in fulfilling the challenges put forth in the Strategic Plan to promote co-educational development opportunities.

SUMMARY

During the Summer / Fall of 2009, Burt Hill completed building condition walkthroughs of all the building assets for the UMW Fredericksburg and Stafford campuses. The task included verification of the 2007 FICAS Asset Detail Report made available by the University. Deferred maintenance is the process of repairing or replacing worn building materials, components, or systems. Each building component has a specific lifespan. As buildings age, these materials need to be replaced or repaired to maintain the building as a viable functional facility for continued student, faculty and/or staff use. The assessment and the FICAS Report helped to identify deferred maintenance projects campus-wide. These projects range from minor room paint to the entire replacement of a building’s mechanical system. Since the project costs listed in the FICAS Report reflect 2009 dollars, the costs were escalated to reflect 2011 dollars, when this cost analysis was finalized. The project items were then scoped based on the building condition evaluation ranging from poor to excellent. The grading system can be summarized as follows - the items that are rated poor will require attention in the first three to five years, those rated good will require attention in the next five to seven years, while those rated excellent will hold good for the next ten years. Every campus building contains deferred maintenance needs. However, a building’s deferred maintenance needs may be resolved with the incorporation of a proposed programmatic project. For example, Virginia Hall has significant deferred maintenance, but the proposed renovation to Virginia to provide updated hotel style residential units will include completing the deferred maintenance items. Therefore, the deferred maintenance list only shows the buildings that are not anticipated to receive programmatic renovations.

This timeline will enable UMW to achieve the goals of the CMP by identifying the sequence of projects that will facilitate the 2009 University of Mary Washington Strategic Plan. This timeline also illustrates how the CMP meets the needs of the proposed academic department space needs, student life improvement, and the non-academic growth/upgrades. The projects shown on the schedule can be completed within fifteen years of initiation. The schedule includes subset phased group renovations when temporary department relocations must occur before a building can be renovated. An example of this is the temporary relocation of the College of Business and Psychology Department relocations must occur prior to the demolition of Chandler Hall for the construction of a new Campus Center.

The campus-wide deferred maintenance projects should be administered as the appropriate needs arise, and when the deferred maintenance projects could be administered in conjunction with a large scale project. It is assumed that the deferred maintenance projects listed in this Comprehensive Master Plan (CMP) would be administered continuously for the next 10-15 years.

JUN

New construction and major building renovations often cause disruption to the academic operations of the University. However, the overall campus fabric must remain viable as an educational institution and as a recruitment tool for future students. Therefore, it is recommended that only two to three large scale construction projects be administered concurrently to mitigate disruption to the students, faculty, staff, and visitors. UMW should take advantage of the limited student enrollment during the summer months to accomplish multiple small project renovations, and to relocate academic departments. All departmental relocations should occur between semesters. Therefore, all building renovation projects related to academic and administrative departments need to be timed for completion near the end of the University’s spring semester.

The timeline for the proposed projects is distributed equally between academic, residential and student life. Therefore, each goal from the 2009 Strategic Plan receives equal weight, and will be supported in the near, medium, and long terms of the master plan.

JUN

The timeline also indicates prioritization for the renovation / new construction of student residence halls. The majority of the residence hall projects have to be staggered such that there remains an adequate quantity of beds to house the residential student population. The first few residential projects are new construction, which will increase the quantity of available beds on campus. This would allow for an existing residence hall to be temporarily taken off-line for renovation without negatively impacting bed availability.

ACADEMICS AT UMW FREDERICKSBURG CAMPUS The University of Mary Washington is known as one of the country’s outstanding public liberal arts universities. As a liberal arts and sciences university, the University of Mary Washington is known for its broad approach to learning designed to help students deal effectively with complexity, diversity, and change.

44

Faculty, students, and staff share in the creation and exploration of knowledge through a wide-range of programs. The University also has a long-established tradition of undergraduate research wherein students collaborate with faculty members to work on real research projects. UMW’s size, dedicated faculty, and historical commitment to excellence in teaching create an institutional culture where both undergraduate and graduate students benefit from strong connections with their faculty and multiple opportunities for active learning.

TENNIS CENTER

ATHLETIC FIELD

To meet the diverse academic goals sought by students in today’s society, the undergraduate curriculum is organized into three colleges – the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Business, and the College of Education. The various academic departments and disciplines offer more than 30 undergraduate majors. Four undergraduate degrees are awarded: Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Liberal Studies, and Bachelor of Professional Studies. The University of Mary Washington also awards several graduate degrees: Master of Business Administration (MBA), Master of Science in Management Information Systems (MSMIS), a combined MBA-MSMIS degree, Master of Education, and Master of Science in Elementary Education.

ATHLETIC FIELDS

EXISTING ACADEMIC BUILDINGS The academic experience at UMW is characterized by the neoclassical, Jeffersonian buildings that are eloquently set within a lush rolling landscape just a short walk from historic downtown Fredericksburg. About half of the existing academic buildings on the Fredericksburg campus are in poor condition and in need of significant renovation. The other half are in good or average condition. The map to the left illustrates these conditions visually and was further explored in Chapter 3 - Campus Conditions.

As we illustrated in Chapter 5 - Utilization, if every learning environment were optimized to meet target levels for time use and station occupancy, the Fredericksburg campus could support between 365-1,600 FTEs within the current classroom inventory. Since the perception is that academic space is already undersized for the current enrollment, changes would have to be made at many levels to achieve this growth. Changes in culture, such as better use of the labs across disciplines and spreading instructional lab needs across rooms to increase individual lab usage, would be required. The curriculum would also require evaluation to maximize existing room use. Many labs are highly specialized or contain specific materials catered to one area of study, so efforts to use labs across disciplines or spread the current load among more rooms may not be possible.

RENEWAL OF KEY ACADEMIC BUILDINGS

Renewal of existing academic buildings is an important component of the Master Plan. In order to make these recommendations, Burt Hill reviewed UMW’s existing academic spaces, compared our space guidelines with the SCUP space standards, and benchmarked these same space standards against those of UMW’s peer institutions. The goal of this analysis was to determine space requirements based upon current and projected FTEs, compared to the existing space provided. By understanding how the University is currently over or under utilizing its space, better decisions can be made for future renovations and new construction. Since academic departments tend to grow organically and are highly dependant on students personal interests, calculating departmental-specific enrollment growth would require a more in depth study. In order to make recommendations for future space requirements, we have assumed that enrollment growth will be uniform throughout departments, proposed classroom square footage will be shared by all departments, not department-specific, and that enrollment will not exceed 4,500 students by 2019.

JEPSON HALL ADDITION

To support the physical and biological sciences, a four-story addition to the existing Jepson Hall science lab building will house classrooms on the first floor, multipurpose labs on the second, labs and classrooms on the third, and faculty offices and meeting rooms on the fourth floor. Small, surgical connections will need to be made to connect the existing interior corridors with the new addition.

NEW HOMES FOR PSYCHOLOGY

AND BUSINESS

Since there are little, if any, on-campus locations for potential new buildings to be constructed, the repurposing of existing buildings is inevitable. The creation of a new campus center allows Woodard to be renovated and repurposed as the College of Business. Starting with an addition / renovation to the second floor, Woodard Hall will accommodate the spacial requirements of the business program which include technologically rich, classroom space, faculty offices, and collaborative learning areas. Located within close proximity to Palmieri Plaza, Mercer Hall has the potential to serve as a flagship building for the Psychology Department. Renovating and rejuvenating historic buildings such as Mercer affords the campus the ability to provide beautifully renovated and more functional academic space while celebrating UMW’s history. The renovation and addition to Mercer Hall is a high-priority project that will hinge on the razing of Chandler Hall to construct a new Campus Center. Several programming meetings with the Theater, Dance, Music, Studio Art, and Art History Departments, as well as UMW administration lead to the creation of department-specific programs establishing future space needs. All departments accepted the programs and choose two possible options for physical growth: (1) renovate the existing Arts Complex with a modern “courtyard” in-fill, or (2) Provide a new building for Theater, Dance, and Music on William Street and allow Studio Art and Art History to move to renovated space in Pollard and duPont Halls. A more detailed technical study is recommended and should reflect a more detailed analysis of spatial relationships and program needs based on the available budget.

OTHER PROJECTS

Proposed Building Use Academic

The renewal of existing academic buildings is an important component of the campus plan as well. Renovations in Goolrick, Simpson Library, and Trinkle Halls are needed to maintain the integrity of these buildings and their systems for future use. This plan also assumes the Information Technology Center is built. The Information Technology will include fixed and flexible spaces such as a digital auditorium for 200, multimedia presentation spaces, conference rooms, performance spaces, gallery spaces, and a new campus data center to support all campus facilities data processing needs.

SU M MARY: Since there are little, if any, on-campus locations for potential new buildings to be constructed, the repurposing of existing buildings is inevitable. The creation of a new campus center near Ball Circle allows Woodard Hall to be renovated and repurposed for academic use. A new addition and renovation make Woodard an ideal location for a new College Of Business (COB). Centrally located and along Campus Walk, the building would accommodate technologically rich classroom space, faculty offices, and spaces related to business programs such as a potential trading room. Since a growth strategy has not been established for the future COB, a scalable programmatic approach has been taken. The existing first floor of Woodard Hall can remain operational, while the second floor functions are converted for academic use. As the department grows, the first floor can be converted accordingly. The new addition will allow for a formal entry to be established for the College of Business within view of the original campus core, now Palmieri Plaza.

SUMM A RY: The renovation and addition to Mercer Hall is a high-priority project that will hinge on the razing of Chandler Hall to construct a new Campus Center. Located within close proximity to Palmieri Plaza, Mercer Hall has the potential to serve as a flagship building for the Psychology Department. The addition to Mercer will also accommodate potential growth within the Department of Psychology.

U N O C C U P I E D S PAC E

The plan diagrams illustrate conceptual spacial relationships that have been established based on several collaborative meetings the Psychology Department and UMW Administration. The first and second floors will accommodate a new main entry, class labs, classrooms, and the Faculty Chair Suite. The third floor features collaboration space, a student lounge, and faculty office space. Renovating and rejuvenating historic buildings such as Mercer affords the campus the ability to provide beautifully renovated and more functional academic space while celebrating UMW’s history.

SU M MARY: Supporting one of the fastest growing programs at the University, the physical and biological sciences, will continue to prepare students for future careers in the geological, environmental, natural, and social sciences. This four-story addition to the existing science lab building will house classrooms on the first floor, multipurpose labs on the second, labs and classrooms on the third, and faculty offices and meeting rooms on the fourth floor. Small, surgical connections will need to be made to connect the existing interior corridors with the new addition. Several small lab storage spaces will need to be taken offline to accommodate this connector; however, the spaces will be relocated adjacent to the new connector or in the new addition.

THE NEW ARTS CE N TE R: The current Arts Complex is undersized for future department needs based on projections and feedback from the Theater and Dance, Music, Studio Art, and Art History departments. Several meetings with members of the Theater, Dance, Music, Studio Art, and Art History Departments, as well as UMW administration lead to the creation of department-specific programs establishing future space needs. All departments accepted the programs and choose two possible options for physical growth: (1) renovate the existing Arts Complex with a modern “courtyard” in-fill, or (2) Provide a new building for Theater, Dance, and Music on William Street and allow Studio Art and Art History to move to renovated space in Pollard and duPont Halls. A more detailed technical study is recommended and should reflect a more detailed analysis of spatial relationships and program needs based on the available budget.

The renovation will consist of cosmetic upgrades as well as minor re-configurations of existing interior spaces to accommodate the needs of a learning commons. The addition of the ITCC connected to Simpson Library should accentuate the need for as well as inform, the renovation of the library. It is also recommended that a study be completed to review the structural integrity of the buildings exterior masonry construction. Cracks in the exterior masonry walls were visible after the earthquake that effected the area in August of 2011. The photos provided to the right are illustrations of various libraries that have been converted into learning commons and innovation centers. Notable trends for these building renovations include incorporation of:

• • • •

Multiple, flexible classroom spaces that can be used as meeting rooms Small group study rooms supporting student collaboration Open, dedicated computer research areas Dedicated computer lounge areas used for non-research activity and casual interaction Cafe’s Reduced stack space and enhanced special collection areas Multiple Lounge-like spaces for casual study Combing library with IT help-desks

NEW, LANDSCAPED QUADRANGLE, ADDITIONAL PARKING

SU M MARY: The University of Mary Washington Stafford campus has proven to be a valuable asset in providing educational opportunities to the residents of Stafford County and, at the same time, provide programs for graduate and professional studies. The county anticipates continued population growth, and as such, there will be increased demand for professional educational development. Although the current buildings located on the UMW Stafford campus are sufficient to support current needs, this plan has identified a potential location for a future building should the need for additional space arise. The site identified will provide UMW with the opportunity to transform the Stafford campus into a more welcoming academic village.

SU M MARY: The construction of a new Campus Center on the existing Chandler Hall site will require the existing building functions to be permanently relocated. Also, as part of a larger effort to enhance and promote academic excellence, a new College of Business will be created. Once the Campus Center is completed, Woodard Hall can be renovated and repurposed as a new permanent location for the Business department. In Spring of 2011 the second floor of George Washington Hall (GW) was vacated by the Sociology and History Departments that relocated to renovated space within Monroe Hall. This vacated space is available for immediate occupation by Business Department’s faculty offices. Although several new walls should be constructed to subdivide existing, larger office space, no other renovations are needed for GW to accommodate this temporary move. In addition to the office spaces provided in GW, Business programs will share classroom and computer lab space with Psychology in Annex A and B (see the following page). Once Woodard Hall’s second floor is renovated and the addition is complete, faculty in the temporary space in GW will move into permanent spaces in Woodard.

Once the Campus Center is completed, Mercer Hall can be renovated and repurposed as a new permanent location for the Psychology Department.

Mercer hall has been used as an infirmary and a residence hall, and most recently as temporary space during the renovation of Monroe Hall. A full renovation and addition to this building would provide the space needed to permanently accommodates the Psychology Department. In Spring of 2011 most of Mercer was vacated by departments moving into permanent space in Monroe. The remainder of the functions currently occupying space within Monroe Hall, including the Judicial Board and Honor Council, will be moved to the second floor of George Washington Hall, as the College of Business will have vacated the space by that time. Once the addition and renovation is completed at Mercer, psychology programs being temporarily housed in the Annexes can be moved into this permanent location.

ATHLETIC FIELD

Even though UMW has an extensive amount of space allocated to athletics, it is needed to accomplish the strategic plan objective of strengthening school spirit and pride. The University Tennis Center has become an anchor for regional tournaments and the community. Also the addition of the Anderson Center was required to meet the NCAA Division III guidelines for basketball arenas and will allow UMW to host championship games.

ATHLETIC FIELDS

ADMINISTRATIVE AND SUPPORT FACILITIES Both Lee and George Washington Halls have numerous administrative offices, office services, and conference rooms. Faculty offices can be found within all of the academic buildings as well as 1201 Williams Street and 1004 College Avenue. Additional office spaces are currently located at Eagle Village and the Jepson Alumni Executive Center. PARKING The Fredericksburg campus has a current parking inventory of 1,664 parking spaces in 26 parking lots (including one on-street parking area on Double Drive) and one structured garage across the length and breadth of the campus. The City of Fredericksburg provides on-street (un-metered) parking along College Avenue and Hanover Street. Parking is generally prohibited on most of the residential streets around the campus. The University is also planning to provide additonal surface parking at the former Pizza Hut site at the corner of Snowden St. and the Jefferson Davis Hwy. Additional information about existing parking demand and policies on the Fredericksburg campus are summarized in Chapter 6 - Parking Analysis.

A NEW CAMPUS CENTER Transformational projects such as the Campus Center will create a new campus gateway along College Avenue and provide an enhanced center for all student life and dining functions. A new four-story, brick and cast stone structure will replace the exiting single story dining hall to provide a centrally located student life hub featuring right sized retail and board dining functions, student organizations and student life suites, office space, meeting rooms, ballroom, bookstore, and lounge space. In order to initiate this project, dining functions will need to be relocated and temporary kitchen facilities will need to be provided in the rear of Woodard Hall. Additional infrastructure to support these facilities will need to be provided before dining functions can be accommodated. Site work will feature an elevated, landscaped plaza area with trellis-work, an entry “porch� complete with colonnade, potential for a green roof or roof garden, and more functional loading dock. The creation of a new campus center allows Woodard to be renovated and re-purposed for academic use. ADDRESSING NEEDS AT THE BATTLEGROUND New locker room and public restroom facilities will be provided at the battleground complex to support the many, year-round athletic programs offered by UMW. Lighting and artificial turf will also be provided on Field D to provide teams with a well lit field for athletic functions that tend to extend into the evening hours.

OTHER PROJECTS A unique quality of the UMW Fredericksburg campus is the strong pedestrian connections that have been maintained between buildings and exterior spaces. As the campus continues to grow in a linear fashion (University Apartments to the South, Eagle Village to the North), it is important to continue to maintain these pedestrian connections and keep vehicular traffic flow along the perimeter of the campus. Creating a pedestrian bridge between the new development around Jefferson Square and the renovated University Apartments will extend campus walk while creating a pedestrian friendly link across Williams Street. An addition to The Ridderhoff Martin Gallery will also encourage growth in the arts and help UMW form a stronger connection with the community.

PARKING Parking availability, although seen as a nuisance by many constituents of the campus, is a compromise the campus has had to make to maintain the pedestrian qualities of campus. The study documented in this report indicates the campus provides adequate parking supply to meet current parking occupancy needs. However, there are still parking related issues regarding complaints about UMW related vehicles parking illegally on residential neighborhoods streets, and the inadequacy of on-campus parking supply within the campus core area which warrant the construction of structured parking along College Avenue. This would also provide an opportunity to relocate the University Police to a more centralized and accessible location along College Avenue. The proposed Parking Deck and surface lots at GW and the new Campus Center will accommodate projected enrollment increases through 2019.

C E N T R A L I Z I N G S T U D E N T L I F E A N D R I G H T- S I Z I N G D I N I N G Many at the University feel strongly that there is a need for a new single campus center building rather than student-centered precincts throughout campus. The goals of this new building would be to combine the existing student life functions of Woodard Hall with the dining functions of Seacobeck, house student life staff (currently in Tyler House), student organizations (currently in Seacobeck), residence life (currently in Marye House), and multicultural suite (currently in Lee Hall) all under one roof. Additional program elements that could be moved under this roof are the bookstore, convenience store, a ballroom to replace great hall, and more functional lounge space.

Madison Hall Ball Circle

A new building would allow more flexibility in design, greater efficiency of resources, and more capacity in certain areas of the building. This building type naturally wants to be near the center of campus. Placing a new campus center / board dining on the existing Chandler Hall site is an ideal option that offers many benefits including: • •

• • • •

A direct connection to Ball Circle. Greater transparency between the building and College Avenue adds to the “see and be seen” quality of the building, and provides and ideal location for an impressive new campus gateway, attracting the many that travel along that artery. The location along College Avenue also opens the building up for community use. Service is easily accomplished off College Avenue. More space can be provided for organizations and offices. Dining space will be ample and able to accommodate future growth.

The renderings in this section illustrate a conceptual option for a new campus center in this location.

ADDITIONAL PARKING AND CENTRALIZED POLICE COMMAND CENTER During the early stages of the Master Plan process, the University identified parking deficiencies and illegal parking as primary issues that should be addressed in the Parking Study provided in Chapter 6 of this report. The primary objectives of this study were to identify existing parking issues, recommend shortterm solutions, and project future parking requirements aimed at addressing long-term enrollment projections. The study indicated that the total parking supply of 1,664 spaces provided by the University currently is inadequate to meet the future parking requirement of 1,780 spaces by 2015 and 2,214 spaces by 2019. Thus the University will experience a deficit of 116 parking spaces by 2015 and 550 parking spaces by 2019 campus-wide. The conceptual plan diagrams indicate a deck that can accommodate 340-510 cars on either two or three levels, approximately 10 spaces dedicated for police vehicles, and administrative space for police and general university use. The advantages of a deck in this location includes:

• •

The location will significantly decrease illegal parking in the College Heights neighborhood Provide a more centrally located parking option for students faculty and staff Provide University Police with a more accessible location along College Avenue for both emergency deployment to opposite ends of campus and for university / community visibility.

A technical study is recommended and could provide alternatives based on university priorities, including an additional level for a higher parking yield.

REVITALIZATION OF A CAMPUS ICON The UMW Amphitheater is a unique and secluded place just off Campus Walk. This outdoor amphitheater has been has the potential to be used for performing art and student life events, outdoor classes or meetings, as well as a rentable venue for other community events. Currently, the Amphitheater cannot be scheduled for use as it is not wheelchair accessible.

In order to use this space for programmed activity an accessible pathway to the seating and stage area must be added. This can be achieved by creating a meandering path along the southwestern side of the Amphitheater, beginning at the path that connects Trinkle Hall and Marye House and ending at the stage platform. It appears that many of the concrete benches and metal seat backs have been removed. The remaining concrete benches should be inspected to determine whether restoration or full replacement is required. New metal seat backs should be reinstalled to recreate the look of the original seating system. Additional columns and pergola element should be added to enhance the stage platform and serve as a backdrop for performances. A technical study is recommended and could provide various alternatives for site lighting and power based on University priorities.

ENHANCING OUTDOOR PLACE-MAKING OPPORTUNITIES The existing road that connects Sunken Road with Woodard Hall, Mercer and Willard Halls is currently utilized by service and delivery vehicles as well as traditional vehicular traffic for those who take advantage of the limited amount of parking within the hill-top area.

C H A P T E R 7 - R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S

Although the retail dining functions will be relocated to the new Campus Center off College Avenue, a small retail dining component has the potential to remain in this building and will require deliveries. Service to Woodard, Mercer, and Willard Halls will still be needed after the Woodard Hall is re-purposed for academic use and Mercer receives its renovation / addition. Providing a new landscaped plaza, vehicle turnaround, optional handicap parking, and a functional loading area for Woodard Hall presents an opportunity to add another outdoor place to UMW’s already abundant campus landscape. Using pavers instead of pavement at the vehicle turnaround, infusing the center with lawn and a circular pathway, and connecting building addition entries to existing pedestrian pathways are just a few strategies that can help make this outdoor place part of a large academic village.

To further illustrate the importance of the building score, Burt Hill has incorporated a five-color “temperature rating.� The coloring begins with red (extremely poor conditions) and gradates through orange to light yellow (excellent condition). The site plan shows that 10 of the existing 17 residence halls are in extremely poor condition: University Apartments, Willard, Virginia, Custis, Ball, Madison, Bushnell, Jefferson, Russell, and Marshall Halls. All of these buildings are colored red and have scored a 0.04 or greater. A majority of the problems within these residence halls stem from the age of the buildings and the installed systems. Although Alvey, Arrington, and South Halls are ranked as good condition, they have ventilation and HVAC issues that compromise the usefulness of the facility. It has been noted by the Facilities Department on campus, that these buildings, though newer, were built with materials that do not have the longevity of materials used in the older residence halls.

The residential building rating site plan (shown on the left) indicates the building rating score for each residence hall on the Fredericksburg campus. This rating system was established from the FICAS report completed for the University of Mary Washington in July 2007. The scores were derived by taking the value of the deferred maintenance projects and dividing them by the overall replacement value of the building.

RESIDENCE LIFE E X I S T I N G

C O N D I T I O N S

EXISTING HOUSING SUMMARY The University of Mary Washington houses approximately 60 percent of the 4,090 Fredericksburg campus students in 16 residence halls and campus apartments. Eagle Landing, a new 650-bed, apartment-style residence, for predominately upperclassmen and graduate students, opened in August of 2010. A new UMW requirement states that all sophomores must live on campus, which will increase the total student population living on campus to between 65 and 70 percent. The strength of the Fredericksburg campus is its historical quality that is carried through in the Georgian style of architecture of the 16 residence halls on campus. Seven of the residence halls were built between 1911 and 1946, while an additional five where built during the 1950s and 1960s. Only 3 of the 16 residence halls (South, Alvey, and Arrington Halls) were completed slightly more recently, between 1988 and 1993. It is also important to note that the current campus apartments were constructed between 1964 and 1969. It is unanimous among students, staff, and faculty that the residence halls need to be renovated. Many have not been refurbished or upgraded since they were constructed, and only a few currently have air conditioning. Every residence hall has a variety of maintenance and code issues throughout, such as: • • • • • • • • •

Wood doors and windows are rotting or in poor condition and need to be replaced. Exhaust and ventilation systems are not functioning properly, causing mold growth. Chilled water distribution systems and steam fired hot water heaters are inadequate and need to be replaced. Heat pumps are old and corroded. Roof assemblies need replacement. Electrical distribution centers are antiquated and should be replaced to avoid power failures. Interior finishes and furniture are dated and in need of upgrading. Fire alarm systems and devices, including exit signs, need to be updated.Sprinkler systems need to be installed. Elevator installation and/or replacement.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

The age of the buildings also contributes to their lack of ADA accessibility. Many of the buildings were built prior to accessibility codes and do not have elevators or the appropriate door widths to accommodate a handicapped student. There is also a lack of ADA compliant directional signage, ramps, door hardware, drinking fountains, millwork, and toilet rooms. Along with the maintenance and code issues described above, the existing residence halls lack the modern amenities that the average student is looking for today when selecting a college or university to attend. The quality of student housing is a critical factor for both students and their parents. Parents want safe, intellectually stimulating environments for their children, while students want, in addition to a fulfilling learning environment, all of the comforts of home and more. Today many of the incoming freshmen come from homes where they have their own bedroom and/or bathroom. This was not the case when a majority of the current residence halls were built over 50 years ago. At that time, the typical dormitory configuration consisted of a double-loaded corridor with double-occupancy rooms on both sides the corridor and a common toilet room at the end of hall. The current housing trend is to have a double-loaded corridor with either hotel-style or suite-style accommodations on either side, where the bathroom is in-suite and services two to four people depending on the design. Although the traditional dormitory configuration is slightly more efficient in terms of bed capacity and forces residence to socialize, it is less desirable and can have negative impacts on student recruiting and retention. Other amenities that are important to incoming freshmen are: • Wireless internet connections • Air conditioning • Laundry facility • TV lounge • Large activity / game room • Meeting / study rooms • Full kitchen on each floor • Secure, covered bike storage

A typical new or renovated residence hall should have a resident coordinator apartment on the first floor and a residential assistant on each floor, or one residential assistant per forty students. This depends on the size of the residence hall and the number of occupants. Each floor should be equipped with a centrally located kitchen, laundry facility, vending area, janitor’s closet, and small lounge space for residents to gather in a group. The lounge space on the ground floor needs to be large enough to accommodate all of the occupants of an individual floor for larger meetings. Mailboxes are not required to be included in the residence halls, since all mail delivery is centralized in the Woodard Hall. Burt Hill recommends that freshmen live within a hotel-style residence hall that has a lounge on each floor. This requires the students to interact and “meet their neighbors”. It also helps students improve their social skills and transition into living on their own after graduation. Upper classmen, who have previously made lasting friendships, can live in suite-style residences that have a living room within each suite. Some single units should be provided for students who do prefer to have their own room. Burt Hill, however, does not recommend that freshmen students live within single units since this environment provides the least amount of social interaction opportunities.

EXISTING RESIDENTIAL ROOM TYPES DESCRIPTION This existing housing site plan indicates the typical room, suite, or apartment layout – drawn at the same scale – of each residence type on the Fredericksburg campus. This site plan clearly shows that students who reside in Russell, Bushnell, and Jefferson Halls are living in extremely cramped quarters. The rooms within Jefferson Hall are so small that there is no other possible configuration for the furniture than is currently used. This lack of space and flexibility limits how a student can personalize the room for a sense of ownership. Out of these three extremely small residence halls, two are freshman housing, which could have a negative impact on a student’s first-year experience and affect the University’s overall retention of students.

C H A P T E R 7 - R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S

On the other hand, students who are fortunate to live in Alvey, Arrington, Custis, Ball, or South Halls, or the University Apartments have a significant amount of space as compared to those who live in other residences. The two other larger floor plans that are shown here represent the renovated rooms of Randolph and Mason Halls.

RESIDENTIAL ANALYSIS P R O P O S E D

251

N A R R A T I V E

One of the challenges of this Master Plan has been to mediate between the need to add new facilities and the need to maintain and support sacred University buildings. This report has made recommendations based on a thorough analysis of building condition and rating, building walkthroughs, capacity analysis based on minimal enrollment growth, our experiences with residential housing and student preference (see appendix for survey results). At the time this Master Plan was conducted, the residence halls, Eagle Landing, and University Apartments existing housing bed count for 2009 was 3,025 (this number excludes 53 temporary off-campus beds not owned by UMW). Based on the analysis of the existing residences, Burt Hill recommends renovating 10 of the existing 18 residence halls which would result in a total of 1,668 renovated beds, which breaks down to 892 hotel-style, 152 suite-style, and 624 apartment style beds. Additionally, Burt Hill recommends that the remaining residence halls (Bushnell, Framar, Jefferson, South, Alvey, and Arrington) and the University Apartments be taken off line and demolished or partially demolished. By doing this, the University has the potential to provide approximately 1,610 new beds on campus. Burt Hill recommends demolition over renovation of these buildings because their existing shells are not adequate to accommodate the new hotel and suitestyle rooms and would result in a significantly reduced overall bed count. These buildings are also in poor condition making renovation more costly per bed as well as impractical financially and programmatically.

For the purposes of this analysis, Burt Hill will identify new residence halls that accommodate the maximum growth potential of 270 additional residential students within a ten year period (based on the existing on-campus residential student percent of 65 percent of total enrollment). This assumes that enrollment will not exceed 4,500 students within that time. By renovating and adding new residential halls to the campus, the following long-term Master Plan goals will be accomplished:

Proposed Building Use Residential

• • • • • • • • •

Maintain the “small liberal arts” residential experience Help to maintain a better on-campus bed capacity Attract and retain students Provide adaptable spaces for future change of use Improve the living / learning environment Meet ADA accessibility requirements Provide state-of-the-art-facilities Support growth within the City of Fredericksburg and UMW Provide the residential amenities demanded by students

C H A P T E R 7 - R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S

Although there is currently no bed shortage, taking residence halls offline to be renovated will result in bed count shortages. Therefore, it is important to construct a new, higher yield residence hall before any renovations begin in order to prevent any significant housing shortages. Based on our residential growth model, there will be bed shortages beginning in 2025 (15 years) once again, after this plan has been fully implemented. Because there are minimal options for growth within the Fredericksburg Campus proper, these beds could be accommodated at Eagle Village II or another site off campus.

HOUSING UNIT TYPES P R O P O S E D

O P T I O N S

PROPOSED HOUSING UNIT TYPES NARRATIVE In order to develop options for renovating the existing residence halls on the Fredericksburg campus, Burt Hill reviewed the housing types, located in the chart to the right. After this analysis, Burt Hill developed two proposed housing options – a hotel-type and a suite-type – each with variations. The variations are needed due to the existing building constraints; some existing residence halls are wider while others are much narrower. The housing types proposed take this into consideration. The types within both categories also differ in the square foot allotment per bed. For example, Hotel-Type 1 has a lower square foot per bed calculation due to the fact that there are four people sharing one bathroom, while Hotel-Type 2 has only two people sharing one bathroom. The same is true for Suite-Type 2 verses SuiteTtype 1 and 3. Burt Hill is proposing that freshmen and sophomore students live within hoteltype housing. This type of housing requires more social interaction among all residents within a building. Junior, senior, and graduate students would have the option of living on campus within a suite-type of residence that would each have a living room. Suite-Type 1 also proposes the possibility of residences having a kitchenette within their suites. The hotel types require the use of floor lounges to encourage student interaction and provide areas for recreative or reflective events.

CONCEPTUAL RENDERING OF PROPOSED JEFFERSON SQUARE ENHANCEMENTS

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN


255

The primary goal of this study is to provide options and space recommendations to accommodate existing and projected enrollment growth over the next 10-15 years. The following recommendations fulfill that goal.

J EFFER SO N S QUA RE RE S ID E N CE S Two new residence halls will be constructed on the current footprint of Jefferson, Framar, and South Halls on the south end of campus, forming a new quadrangle adjacent to an already prominent outdoor quadrangle, Jefferson Square. Drawing upon another goal of the University Strategic Plan to enhance the student life experience through the introduction of living / learning concepts in the residence halls, Burt Hill is also proposing a new living-learning community at the Bushnell Hall site. This community will consist of enhanced, multi-purpose learning environments and lounges on the first floor with potentially honors student housing on the upper three floors. NEW RESIDENTIAL QUADRANGLE AT ALVEY AND ARRINGTON Alvey and Arrington Halls require a major renovation. The existing inefficient building footprints create a higher renovation cost per bed that would likely exceed the cost of new construction. Therefore, it is recommended that Alvey and Arrington Halls be razed, and two new residence halls with greater bed capacity be constructed on the same site. This location also provides an opportunity to create a residential community with an athletic focus, as both halls will be located next to the fitness center and new Convocation Center. CAM PU S RE S ID E N CE HA L L RE N OVATIONS Burt Hill’s facility condition analysis indicated that 15 of 18 existing residence halls on the Fredericksburg campus require a major renovation. As several of these will be razed to build newer residence halls, we are recommending the remaining nine be renovated. The need for renovation includes the recommendation to upgrade the student living amenities that are prevalent in today’s housing market. These upgrades will have an impact on the quantity of beds in each building. NEW PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE AND RENOVATED UNIVERSITY APARTMENTS The development around Jefferson Square will be the first phase in extending Campus Walk to create a better pedestrian connection between the University Apartments and the main campus. The second phase of this will be the construction of an arched pedestrian bridge followed by a partial renovation of the University Apartments. The bridge extends the Campus Walk while providing safe pedestrian access to residents of the University Apartments.

OV ER V IEW As previously stated, one of the challenges of this Master Plan has been to mediate between the need to add new facilities and the obligation to maintain and support sacred buildings. These recommendations are based upon many factors which include, but are not limited to, the limited size of the Fredericksburg campus, the size and condition of existing residential buildings, the need and desire of many students to have updated residential options on campus, among others. After meeting with many UMW constituents, consensus was gained that the most sacred residence halls on the Fredericksburg campus are Virginia, Willard, Ball, Custis, and Madison Halls. Since renovating these buildings, among several others, will yield a lower bed count, bed shortages will eventually accumulate, even if enrollment only grows slightly. The need for on-campus student housing is compounded by the lack of available, affordable, off-campus housing in and around the city of Fredericksburg.

P R O P O S E D W AT E R , S A N I TA R Y A N D S T O R M N A R R AT I V E Although water pressure at UMW is less than ideal, it is generally adequate for domestic water service at this time. There is no overall water model of the University area that analyzes available flow and pressure. For future development, however, demand will be increased significantly with the addition of a new Campus Center, Arts Center, and significant residential development around Jefferson Square. Coordinating a looped system with adjacent municipal lines at the intersection of Sunken Road and William Street should be explored to allow for expansion and improved performance. A redundant municipal water distribution system (six-inch dia.) would allow for expansion and improved performance of the South Campus’s infrastructure. In general, adding localized building meters for tracking of water usage and identification of potential leaks or failures and providing new 6� water service laterals that connect to the existing campus main would be recommended for all new and renovated buildings. Adding valves along existing lines to allow more of the water system to remain in service during water line breaks and replacing sections of the water system with more modern, non-corrosive pipe should also be considered.

As areas of the campus are developed or improved, development plans should demonstrate that there is no increase in the quality or quantity of the stormwater run-off over the baseline condition, and that the run-off is conveyed to an adequate outfall channel so downstream properties are not damaged. Presently, run-off from existing buildings to key outfall points reach erosive velocities. It is recommended that a regional drainage facility be constructed. One option is near the existing power plant and proposed parking deck, another is at the Battleground Complex near the physical plant facility. A regional, subsurface detention facility is more cost effective than several smaller facilities designed for each project on a piecemeal basis. Many existing buildings on campus also have inadequately sized and dated terra cotta and cast iron storm pipes. In general, inadequate pipes should be corrected by increasing the pipe size, the slope, diverting the flow to another system with greater capacity or producing stormwater quality control upstream to reduce the amount of runoff to the problem pipe. NOTE: The Stormwater Quality and Quantity Management Study, dated 12-23-09, prepared by Koontz-Bryant PC was used as a reference in the Master Plan Study.

The sanitary sewer serving the campus and upstream residential and commercial properties runs from the City of Fredericksburg, west of College Avenue, down across the main campus, towards Sunken Road with some sanitary lines draining towards William Street and the rest toward Fitzhugh Street. There is no overall model of the sanitary sewer system that serves UMW. Due to the age and condition of much of the sanitary sewer, downstream improvements will most likely be needed prior to any new development. Based upon previous assessment reports, conducted for the University, the sewer main may be experiencing failures due to degradation and capacity overburden. Added flows as a result of any new development may dictate the need to upgrade or upsize the portion of the main branch traversing through the campus. For example, the potential add of one of the Jefferson Square Residence Halls and the Living-Learning at Bushnell facility will place added burden to the existing six-inch cast iron sewer system. Replacing the south campus sewer main infrastructure (six-inch cast iron) with eight-inch minimum PVC sewer line is highly recommended. Since main line branch services non-university (municipal) facilities and functions as a shared municipal main (to be confirmed), an opportunity of a collaborative effort for the infrastructure improvements with the local municipality may exist. Any new development will require, in most cases, a connection to the sewer main via a eight-inch diameter PVC lateral.

PROPOSED ELECTRICAL AND EMERGENCY POWER NARRATIVE The main campus area in Fredericksburg is served through three primary connection feeders for electrical power from Dominion Power. These feeders are known as Marshall, Sunken Road, and Goolrick and each is equipped with a service meter. Each feeder is configured in a radial distribution arrangement with a single main connection to the utility grid. Transformer taps are provided from the radial feeds at selected locations to provide power to buildings. The transformers typically do not have independent isolation switches. Electrical power to the athletic complex portion of the campus is provided from multiple feeders located along Hanover Street. Most primary feeders on campus are direct buried cable.

T

T

The University Facilities Group has been working with Dominion Power to upgrade the existing infrastructure and provide improvements for serviceability and power restorations. Improvement projects that included work with the electric utility service have added primary isolation switches to transformer taps from the campus feeders. Additionally, the university is working with the power company to interconnect the three main campus feeders. Providing disconnect switches between the feeders and at selected locations on campus will assist in isolating feeder segments for work and power restoration in the event system problems occur.

T

T

The main campus area is expected to see approximately 600kW increased load on each feeder from the master plan changes. Dominion Power is responsible for providing the power necessary for university operations and will generally assess infrastructure needs as projects are presented. Providing dual connections for each feeder will require evaluation by the utility company to determine the extent to which each feeder can supply campus loads as well as the surrounding grid connections. Load increase at the athletic complex and parking deck will need to be coordinated with the local feeders in those areas. Presently, only two buildings on the main campus are provided with permanently installed engine driven electric generators for emergency and backup electrical power. George Washington Hall which houses the campus network operations center and the Public Safety office at Brent House are the facilities provided with the generators. Plans for the Convergence Center also include the installation of permanent backup generators. The University has identified that generator backed power will be provided with upgrades to the Dining facilities as well as for the central heating plant to maintain boilers operational during power outages.

C H A P T E R 7 - R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S

Master Plan proposed changes for campus buildings will result in a net increase in load of approximately 2,100 kW over the life of the plan. These changes will require service upgrades at each main campus building site as well as possibly primary feeder upgrades for the distribution circuits. The feeders are provided from the electric utility system serving the city of Fredericksburg and therefore are managed with respect to loads adjacent to the University.

It also explores potential land acquisitions. Currently the University of Mary Washington and the University of Mary Washington Foundation have the potential to acquire several properties in close proximity to the Fredericksburg campus. Potential acquisitions include the existing Stratford Apartments site, the parcel to the west of the existing Power Plant, as well as the parcel just south of the University Apartments, in the vicinity of University Heights.

REGIONAL PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS The University of Mary Washington campuses are located within the DC / Baltimore Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). The Foundation has land holdings in both the City of Fredericksburg, Virginia, and Stafford County. Any development effort will need to be informed by current market research, as the available market data is several years old and does not take into account the current economic recession. In December 2009, the unemployment rate in Fredericksburg rose to 9.9 percent, higher than the overall rate for the state of Virginia (6.7 percent). Nationally, the recession has brought a significant slowdown in the housing market along with a credit crisis that has made financing for new development difficult to secure. This is certain to have an impact on the growth trends affecting the market; however, both Fredericksburg and Stafford campuses are likely to continue to grow after the recession has ended and the economy begins to rebound.

UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS PA R C E L

Despite current economic conditions, Fredericksburg has grown into a DC bedroom community with increasing pressure from suburban sprawl, and the city’s population is expected to continue to grow. Prior to 2005, the population of low-income families increased in the city, while it decreased in the surrounding counties of Spotsylvania and Stafford. At 42 percent, a very high percentage of Fredericksburg families fall into the low-income range (50 percent or less of the median income), but this could be a statistical result of being part of the DC / Baltimore MSA. Young faculty and students who compete for affordable housing in the community are the demographics most likely affected by this trend.

The 2007 Fredericksburg Comprehensive plan specifically recommends “university housing, other institutional uses, or parkland” for this site. One option is to rezone the property to C-T (Transitional Commercial/Office), which would allow for office type classroom and research buildings and student housing. The purpose of this land use classification is to “provide for the location of predominantly non-retail commercial uses in a low intensity manner such that they can be employed a transitional land uses between residential neighborhoods and higher intensity uses.” With offices included as a byright use under this designation, colleges and universities, establishments for scientific research and development, residential dwellings at up to eight units per acre, and institutional housing are all permitted by special use permit. In the hypothetical development scenario provided, 125 housing units could be developed in the form of garden style apartments in the northern portion of the site. This keeps the housing closer to the Fredericksburg Campus, and is compatible with other uses along Greenbriar Drive. The southern portion of the site is developed with classrooms/research space, which is compatible with some other uses along the Route 1 bypass. As an example, this facility could supplement existing environmental science or sustainable research programs as well as provide outreach for others to utilize the facility and grounds for a more holistic research experience. The developable land area can accommodate about 40,000 square feet of space with a surface parking lot, or 80,000 square feet of space with a three-story parking garage (this assumes one space per 200 square feet of gross floor area per Fredericksburg City code). If left undeveloped, the center portion of the site could serve as a habitat research area for the University or public open space. In addition, a publicly accessible trail could traverse the topography of the central area to provide a link between the commercial and residential portions of the site, and provide a pedestrian/ bike friendly connection to the Main Campus via Greenbriar Drive and William Street.

ZONING AND DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL The property is currently zoned Low Density Residential (R-2) with up to two units per acre. A clustering provision is included in the code that unlike the Stafford County code, does not allow for a gross increase in density, only a decrease in the minimum lot size from 15,000 square feet to 13,000 square feet. With these requirements, the developable area of the site could hold about 30 single family homes, with about 20 accessing the Route 1 side of the site and 16 accessing the Greenbriar Drive side. Given the site frontage on Route 1, however, as well as surrounding higher density uses, a rezoning to a higher intensity use seems reasonable.

R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S F O R S TA F F O R D L A N D H O L D I N G S Large portions of the Stafford East and Stafford West properties are not suitable for development due to the density of trees and slopes (this analysis does not examine soils, which will also impact the development options). On the Stafford East property, almost 66 acres have slopes of greater than 10 percent, leaving an area of about 117 acres for accessible, economically viable development. While some construction can occur in slopes up to 25 percent, slopes beyond 25 percent will begin to complicate building layout, staging, and road construction, and thus increase the cost of development. On the Stafford West property, a larger percentage of the parcel has characteristics that complicate development. The western border of much of the property is a creek, which may present environmental challenges and is likely bordered by a flood plain. This parcel, too, has areas of grades greater than 25 percent and is densely wooded. The larger buildable area of the West property lies to the east, with access off of Clark Patton Road. Seventy-seven acres of area with moderate slopes under 10 percent would be an attractive parcel for residential development. However, it appears that this portion of the property cannot be fully accessed without some sort of easement. As well, Parcel 35-23 provides another area of low slopes, but its most viable access comes from the northwest via Jack Ellington Road. It is unlikely that the two buildable portions could be connected and developed as one property, as the linkage would necessitate a costly bridge for vehicular access between them.

The current zoning designation of these two properties seems inappropriate. Limited access and hilly terrain do not make them suitable for industrial development, unless there is some resource that can be mined. The Foundation might consider pursuing a rezoning of the property to the predominantly surrounding A2 Rural Residential designation, R1 Suburban Residential being another suitable use, or possible R2 Urban Residential. The surrounding landscape is predominantly rural, but an R2 designation would yield the highest and best use. Increased density can be achieved while preserving much of the property and the rural character. Stafford County has created a mechanism for clustered development that would be a beneficial tool for these properties, but this tool can only be applied to R1 or R2 zoning. The Foundation has a number of other options to pursue if they choose to seek rezoning of the parcels. Looking at the surrounding area and the characteristics of the sites, although it is most likely that these parcels would be developed as residential. If the properties were rezoned as A-2 Agriculture, the development would likely be restricted to the buildable area with lots defined by a new access road. Minimum frontage would be 80 feet, and the lots would have to be a minimum of one acre. A simple approach may yield about 85 housing lots on the Stafford East property. A similar yield may be possible on the Stafford West property. A more detailed study of the slopes and soil conditions could result in more efficient use of the properties, yielding more lots. However, if the properties would be rezoned as R-1 Suburban Residential, cluster development

would be allowed. An overall open space ratio of 25 percent would require at about 46 acres of open space on Stafford East and about 52 acres on Stafford West. Allowing three dwelling units per acre in cluster housing, each property is entitled to several hundred housing units, many more than is likely to be absorbed from growth in the housing market. Updated market studies will be important in determining what zoning district to consider. However, one important difference to note between the R-1 Suburban Residential district and the R-2 Urban Residential district is that R-2 allows multi-family housing, retirement communities, and assisted living. These are possible markets that could be well served by the Stafford East and Stafford West properties. Also, should a study indicate an expected strong rebound and an increased demand for mixed-use development, both properties meet the minimum 150 acre threshold for a PD-1 Planned Development District. This type of development would offer the most flexibility and opportunity. A thorough review of the available utility connections and capacity would need to be executed before considering this type of development.

Potential ideas include: • Use as an outdoor venue for the performing arts. This would have seasonal uses only, which does not work well with the typical school year. This would require the removal of a stand of trees, and the size and species are unknown. • Sell the property or manage it as a bed and breakfast. • Sell the property or manage it as a single-family home. • Under a multi-department project (collaboration between the business school, biology / ecology departments), operate the property as a for-profit working organic farm.

These recommendations will aid UMW in achieving its goal of being the best small liberal arts college in the United States. The university has already created campus standards for outdoor furniture and signage. These standards have been very successful for its campuses. The following recommendations for sustainability, historic preservation, learning environments, and office space will also contribute to the success of UMW.

G R E E N I N G A N D C A M P U S S U S TA I N A B I L I T Y Greening is a process of transforming space, lifestyle or image to a more environmentally friendly version. The act of greening involves incorporating green products and processes into ones environment and surroundings. Broadly speaking, the concept of campus sustainability involves thoughtful measurement of resources consumed and wastes emitted, and the consideration of long-term effects of these on earths systems and human health. Campus sustainability initiatives include a broad range of actions including assessment and planning of: • Energy use, supply and distribution • Material supply and disposal • Food supply • Water supply and disposal • Building design and construction, including mechanical systems • Transportation • Vegetation and landscape • Education, research and outreach The University has a considerable number of stainability initiatives underway or in planning phases. A sustainability committee has been appointed and has made the commitment to encourage and enhance sustainable practices across the institution. In this section we list some of The University’s ongoing sustainability efforts describe how the fundamental framework of the campus plan could contribute to a more sustainable Mary Washington and recommend some additional avenues for consideration as the plan is implemented.

E N E R G Y U S E , S U P P L Y, A N D D I S T R I B U T I O N In 2005, the University entered into a performance contract with NORESCO. The contract included an energy audit and outlined Energy Conservation Measures (ECM) to be put in place through a partnership of NORESCO contractors and UMW Facilities Services. The first ECM addressed energy efficient lighting systems. This initiative has resulted in multiple changes to lighting systems that has produced reductions in energy consumption, maintenance, waste production and environmental pollutants. In addition to energy audits, The University should consider setting target dates and interim milestones for becoming climate neutral, take immediate steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by creating a list of short-term actions, integrate sustainability into the curriculum and make it part of the educational experience, and to make an action plan, inventory and progress reports publicly available. The State of Virginia does not currently have a system in place to enforce these actions; however, The University’s sustainablity committee has the opportunity to be an integral part of enforcing accountability of such plans as well as aiding in establishing and executing them. Although the University has purchased new Energy Star washers and dryers, participating in the Environmental Protection Agencies voluntary Energy Star and Green Light programs would provide ongoing benefits and discounts that could make buying and supporting these types of appliances profitable for UMW. UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Plans for building-automation and energy management analysis are in progress on campus. Such analysis will increase operational efficiency throughout the campus.

W AT E R C O N S E R V AT I O N & S TO R M W AT E R M A N A G E M E N T The second Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) undertaken by UMW in the performance contract with NORESCO was water conservation. The contract included an energy audit and outlined ECMs to be put in place through a partnership of NORESCO contractors and UMW Facilities Services. The water conservation measure or ECM2 has resulted in multiple changes to our water fixtures and water usage throughout the University. While the efforts of NORESCO address conservation, there is still a bigger issue on campus regarding storm water management. Simply stated, the campus is overbuilt. The Stormwater Quality and Quantity management Study, dated 12-23-09 prepared by Koontz-Bryant PC was used as reference in this Master Plan report and provides several options for addressing the many stormwater management problems on the Fredericksburg campus. Plants can be highly effective in removing many of the toxins and pollutants that can be carried in stormwater. Vegetated swales, constructed wetlands, rain gardens, and vegetated strips can be used to slow and filter runoff, allowing stormwater to be cleaned, detained or infiltrated and for the groundwater to be recharged. The retention and infiltration of stormwater on site can minimize water quality degradation, erosion and flooding, as well as eliminate the expense associated with artificial stormwater conveyance systems (pipes, sewers, etc). Traditional piped systems should be used as a backup when natural systems become saturated. Possible conservation and management strategies include: • • • •

Minimize impervious surfaces and increase pervious surfaces Incorporate biofiltration systems such as bioswales or planting strips in parking lots to filter and remove pollutants from stormwater Minimize curbs where possible (curbs allow for the concentration of pollutants) Minimize hardscape where possible and use landscape, rain gardens or green roofs.

OUTREACH Like many American campuses, UMW has demonstrated a commitment to promoting sustainability on campus. University of Mary Washington currently offers recycling of corrugated cardboard, printer ink cartridges, mixed paper, newsprint and co-mingled plastic, glass, and aluminum to faculty, staff, and students. Designated bins are located in each academic building and collection containers are located in all residence halls. Promoting everyday sustainable strategies and quick-tips to students, faculty and staff, showcasing energy reduction efforts such as retrofitting campus appliances, and implementing behavior change programs helps UMW create a campus strongly rooted in conservation and the principles of sustainability.

DINING SERVICES Dining Services at UMW is one of only five colleges and universities in Virginia to achieve the environmental certification “Virginia Green.” Virginia Green is the Commonwealth of Virginia’s campaign to promote environmentally friendly practices and establish “core activities” specific to each market sector. It also encourages participants to reduce their environmental impacts in all aspects of their operations. Customers of these establishments then know what to expect when they visit a facility with this certification, as the assessments and criteria are published publicly. Dining Services only purchases food which comes from the state or the region and have implemented the use of Bagasse containers, which compost in four months time T R A N S P O R TAT I O N The University is fortunate to have a strong relationship with Fredericksburg Regional Transit (FRED) buses which offer FREE service to University students. Several convenient stops are located in and around campus with service to historic downtown and major shopping areas and movie complexes along Route 3. The City of Fredericksburg recognizes the need to expand this system and is currently reviewing options to do so. The campus is also in close proximity to the Greyhoud bus and Amtrack train stations as well. Biking around campus and the surrounding area is also fairly common. Although there are no dedicated bike lanes at the time of this report, there are plans in motion to create bike lanes and paths within the Fredericksburg Comprehensive Plan as well as the Pathways plan. UMW currently provides ample bike racks on campus, however some are not located near the entries on buildings, causing students, faculty and staff to chain bikes to other grounded objects. As a general rule of thumb, bike racks should be placed convenient to the buildings most prominent entry. Bicycle shelters are also an option and offer convenience and added security to students, faculty, and staff who commute regularly by bike. A campus standard should be developed for the design of these shelters to complement the historic nature of buildings on campus. The University also has a perceived parking problem. As Chapter 6 - Parking Analysis revealed, there is currently ample parking on the Fredericksburg campus; however, parking is limited at the campus core. With growth, there will be a parking shortage. Until then, shifts in culture, such as offering and promoting preferred parking for carpooling and environmentally friendly vehicles, adding bike lanes, promoting alternative means of transit, and restructuring perceptions through education could help alter this perception.

BUILDING DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION Almost half of the energy consumed in the US is related to buildings. The way institutions build, heat, and cool their buildings has a large impact on energy consumption. Beyond setting the requirement for LEED certification, UMW should consider setting specific goals related to particular credits. Achieving specific goals in

The University should also consider the guidelines in the Sustainable Sites Initiative when siting new buildings and developing landscape. This organization has developed guidelines and a rating system which is incorporated into the newest LEED Green Building Rating System. Pilot projects are being tested and a reference guide is expected to be published around 2012. The groups interim report titled “ Standards & Guidelines: Preliminary Report” provides useful points of reference. Also, the USGBC has released a “Roadmap to a Green Campus”. This a resource which would help UMW to develop a sustainability plan. It is also provides useful information on long term efforts. The Roadmap contains case studies of what other schools have already done to address a sustainable master plan. Some of the case studies/schools include Harvard, Boston College, Emory University, Spelman College, SUNY, Miami University, Princeton University, Loyola University, Colorado State University, and Duke University. More information can be found at www.centerforgreenschools. org/roadmap. This plan calls for the renovation of over 17 on campus buildings. Setting energy use reduction targets before renovating each building should be considered as buildings typically end up using more energy after being renovated as a result of adding new heating and cooling equipment and elevators. Aesthetically and historically appropriate storm windows should be used as replacements on existing buildings to reduce energy consumption. Installing “Vending Misers” on vending machines in all campus buildings is a quick-fix to reducing building energy consumption on buildings who are not receiving a full renovation.

ENHANCE THE CAMPUS WITH LANDSCAPE BMP’S A N D N AT I V E P L A N T I N G A N D V E G E TAT I O N While efforts at increasing building efficiency should be a part of any development efforts, there is also a wide range of landscape efforts which can be undertaken to improve sustainability and create a green campus. Wherever possible these “best management practices” should be incorporated into the UMW landscape in the future: Existing ecosystems should always be protected, such as the existing perennial stream Resources should be conserved. Lost or damaged ecosystems should be regenerated. Take advantage of site conditions such as solar, airflow, lighting, soil, vegetative, and topographic conditions. Create an open space framework within campus. Use natural drainage ways whenever possible. Provide incentives for walking, busing, bicycling, and ride sharing. Consider human safety above all other factors. All development should be planned with the intent to improve the local economy. Create designs that are responsive to social, economic, and cultural conditions. Provide regenerative systems for the use of future generations. Re-establish the integral natural processes between natural processes and human activity. UMW should also encourage sustainability and landscape diversity that celebrates the native Virginia’s Coastal Plan landscape. Native plants are those which naturally occur in a particular region. These plants have evolved over time in response to the conditions of that region. These responses are derived from chances in climate, soil rainfall, pests, and disease. As a result, native plants have traits which make them uniquely adapted to a given area. Moreover, native plants can be used to create a beautiful and culturally appropriate landscape, and they are typically better suited than non-natives to resist periods of drought, weather extremes, and local insects and disease. The use of native plants should be encouraged as there are many ecological and practical benefits to their use. For instance, plants native to a particular region tend to be low maintenance, and require little or no irrigation. When appropriately placed, hedgerows and shrubbery help to channel cool summer breezes into buildings. Small trees native to the Coastal Plain Region and appropriate in a higher education setting include the Red Mulberry, and American Holly, which bears dark green leaves and round red berries. Medium to Large trees include Scarlet Oak, great for shade, acorns to feed the UMW squirrels, and brilliant red colors which appear in the fall, the White, Scarlet and Post Oaks, and Atlantic White Cedar. Native vines include Carolina Jasmine, whose small, fragrant, blooms last an entire season or two, trumpet honeysuckle and Atlantic Wisteria. Shrubs native to the Coastal Plain and attractive enough to use as accents across campus include New Jersey Tea, black huckleberry, winterberry, and the Virginia Willow.

HISTORIC PRESERVATION PLAN PRESERVING CAMPUS HISTORY WHILE EVOLVING AN INSTITUTION

The University of Mary Washington has an exceptionally rich history. It is also fortunate enough to have one of the largest historic preservation programs in the country, whose mission is to “provide opportunities for students to gain a better understanding of America’s cultural and ethnic diversity and the ramifications of technological innovation and social change on the quality of life.” Thusfar this report has considered possible locations to accommodate campus growth, the size of these facilities, and how they may fit and enhance the existing organizational structure of the campus. This section is meant to address what the campus should look like. The campus should honor its long history while reflecting its evolving identity as a forward thinking institution.

PHYSICAL AND INSTITUTIONAL IDENTITY Important campus buildings such as Monroe, Virgnia, Willard, Trinkle, Ball, Custis, Madison, DuPont, Pollard, and Melchers halls should be preserved, not as time capsules or as museum pieces, but as revitalized links to UMW’s past, present, and future identity. Monroe Hall, for example, is emblematic of UMW’s early days; and the proliferation of 1940’s and 50’s buildings on campus tells the story of the great number of returning soldiers attending UMW post WWII. New buildings, likewise, should reflect their own times, and the contemporary image of UMW as a forward thinking, modern institution while respecting the architectural heritage of the campus and the region.

BALL CIRCLE AND PALMIERI PLAZA Ball Circle is the large, sunny campus green located at the heart of UMW and is home to many campus-wide activities from frisbee games to Commencement. Likewise, Palmieri Plaza is surrounded by the three original campus buildings, Monroe, Virginia, and Willard Halls. Both places have a hierarchical importance that should be acknowledged by future building and development.

A D D I T I O N S A N D R E N OVAT I O N S TO O L D B U I L D I N G S Generally, properties eligible for listing in the National Register are at least 50 years or older. None of the buildings on the UMW Fredericksburg campus are on the National Register, however many are over 50 years of age. Preserving integrity of historic buildings encompasses aspects of design, maintenance, and repair. The replacement of deteriorated building elements, or the rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of an entire building can significantly affect the architectural character and appearance of both a building and its surrounding district. Therefore, these changes must be done in a manner that is sensitive to the architectural design of the building.

FLUTED COLUMNS, WHITE CORNICES, BRICKS, AND BALUSTRADES These elements, along with dentils, wrought iron railings, and entry porticos, are visible on most buildings throughout campus and are important, not only as architectural elements and materials, but as symbols of the University’s mission and history. These simple details make up a truly American architectural style characterized by a combination of Greek, Roman, Georgian, and 17th Century Colonial architectural details. Thomas Jefferson advanced the style by combining his knowledge of the work of Andrea Palladio with his interest in The Orders to create his Academic Village , better known as the University of Virginia. It was also shaped by the bricklayers who settled in Virginia after leaving England and has become a welcome standard in the state of Virginia, the City of Fredericksburg and the surrounding area. Elements that characterize the modern Colonial American Georgian style include the front porch, anchoring chimney masses, sash windows, large exterior symmetrical staircases, dormers, pedimented doorways, large square rooms, a central interior axis, and classical proportions on the interior and exterior.

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

The National Park Service has developed the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for preservation, rehabilitation, restoration, and reconstruction projects. The Standards address issues as diverse as building materials, building elements, building interiors, building site, setting (district / neighborhood), and special considerations, such as additions, energy conservation, handicapped accessibility, and fire/life safety. The Secretary of the Interior Standards can serve as a great resource when renovating or maintaining historic buildings and structures. The standards provide guidance for maintenance, repair, alteration and demolition of historic structures.


279

The Secretary of the Interior’s guidelines on historic preservation provide sound suggestions for building renovations. They include the following: •

• • •

• •

A property will be used as it was historically, or be given a new use that maximizes the retention of distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. Where a treatment and use have not been identified, a property will be protected and, if necessary, stabilized until additional work may be undertaken. The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The replacement of intact or repairable historic materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided. Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Work needed to stabilize, consolidate, and conserve existing historic materials and features will be physically and visually compatible, identifiable upon close inspection, and properly documented for future research. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved. The existing condition of historic features will be evaluated to determine the appropriate level of intervention needed. Where the severity of deterioration requires repair or limited replacement of a distinctive feature, the new material will match the old in composition, design, color, and texture. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment.

C R E AT I N G A H I S TO R I C P R E S E R VAT I O N P L A N The Historic Preservation Department expressed a need and desire for The University to create a Historic Preservation Plan that would develop guidelines for the maintenance existing and development of future university physical assets. UMW recognized the importance of such a plan in order to understand the institutions historic architecture, landscape, and archaeological resources, they commissioned a Preservation Plan to be created. A plan of this kind would provide suggestions for respecting the universities history, alumni, and traditions by emphasizing the historical qualities and integrity of campus architecture, landscape and resources. The Historic Preservation Plan for the University of Mary Washington will: • • • • • •

Establish preservation goals, policies, and implementation strategies Develop a set of historic design guidelines for the campus Assist with seeking out aid for ongoing campus preservation projects Develop and expand appropriate mechanisms for the identification, evaluation, and protection of historic and cultural resources Integrate preservation into the city’s planning, land use, and property management codes and policies Increase awareness of historic preservation and the University’s program

Recommendations within this Master Plan document should be informed by the recommendations within UMW’s Preservation Master Plan. C H A P T E R 7 - R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S

Care should be taken to use compatible materials and building components while renovating existing building fabric. Older buildings need not be static; significant change is often necessary for them to remain vibrant and useful. For example, the plan indicates renovation of Virginia Hall, one of the older buildings on campus. This renovation will provide improved residential living space, including hotel-style rooms and lounge space, and reflect and support the needs of incoming students while attempting to preserve the architectural integrity of the existing structure and the surrounding buildings.

DESIGN STANDARDS LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS OVERVIEW The University of Mary Washington is currently inefficiently utilizing classrooms on their Fredericksburg Campus. The average square foot per student FTE for classrooms is lower than SCUP standards, but is average among its peers. UMW has an adequate number of classroom spaces as compared to SCUP and their peer institutions. To further maximize utilization of classroom spaces on the Fredericksburg Campus, all classrooms within each academic building should be generic spaces that can be used by all departments. As stated in Chapter 5 - “Utilization”, both technological upgrades and centralized scheduling by the registrar of existing classrooms will improve utilization. IDEAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT ATTRIBUTES Although the ideal classroom is constantly evolving, time tested constants remain; flexible room configurations, sightlines to board and screen space, proper acoustics and ample daylighting. Boards should be raised, slanted to avoid glare from the windows, and lighted to maximize viewing. Single-loaded corridors allow shaded natural daylight and fresh air with cross ventilation into both sides of the classroom. Design standards or sustainability goals should dictate the ratio of window area to floor area, the location of windows, the width and height of the window wall, and the distance between the ceiling and window top rail for proper light distribution and no direct sunlight. By considering and planning for student health, safety, performance, comfort and room aesthetics, UMW can create an “ideal” classroom environment that testifies to the value they place on student education. The layouts on the opposite page illustrate some guidelines for properly sizing proposed classroom / class lab spaces. Many other variations are possible. However these guidelines provide good benchmarks for sizing space within a proposed architectural program.

OVERVIEW Office facilities are individual, multi-person, or workstation space specifically assigned to academic, administration and service functions of a college or university. Also included under the Room Use 300 category are office services (reception / copy / fax / mail areas), conference rooms, and conference room services (kitchenettes/breakout areas). Both Lee and George Washington Halls have numerous administrative offices, office services, and conference rooms. Faculty offices can be found within all of the academic buildings as well as 1201 Williams Street and 1004 College Avenue. Also included within the NASF are the office spaces that are located within Centre Court and the Alumni Executive Center. Some of UMW’s peers may outsource their publications, graphic, and web design departments which may be why the office quantity is higher at UMW than some of the other schools.

IDEAL OFFICE SPACE ATTRIBUTES Over 50 percent of working professionals in the US spend the workday in office buildings and spaces, and employers today are increasingly bearing the responsibility of providing a quality workspace. Thus the office space type is typically a flexible environment that integrates technology, natural light, comfort and safety, and energy efficiency to provide a productive, cost-effective, and aesthetically pleasing working environment. Typical features of office space types include: • • •

UNIVERSITY OF MARY WASHINGTON COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN

Integrated Technology: Thorough understanding of the technological requirements of the space, including anticipated future needs. Occupancy: Office space types fall into the B2 occupancy classification, with sprinklered construction. Flexibility: The office space type is durable and adaptable, and may include features such as a raised floor system for the distribution of critical services (power, voice, data, and HVAC) and mobile workstations to accommodate changes in employee, equipment, and storage needs over time. Comfort and Safety: The health, safety, and comfort of employees is of paramount concern to employers. For this reason, the office space type should be designed with increased fresh air ventilation, the specification of non-toxic and low-polluting materials and indoor air quality monitoring. Non-quantifiable benefits such as access to windows and view, and opportunities for interaction should also be taken into account. Energy Efficiency: As energy costs increase with higher reliance on technology, strategies such as the specification of high-efficiency lighting and lighting controls; the application of daylighting; the use of occupancy sensors; and the installation of high-efficiency HVAC equipment should be considered.

For office spaces, the layout and space requirements vary greatly depending on each individual’s needs. The shape and size of an office, door, and window locations, columns and other architectural features also influence the arrangement of furniture within the space. Beyond these considerations, the basic layouts shown demonstrate how much furniture can reasonably fit in an office of a given square footage.
