Facilities Master Plan (FMP)
OVERVIEW
Since 1974, the College has conducted long-range facilities planning to assess College progress towards established goals and plan for future growth. This process includes review of existing space needs of facilities and grounds, and determining facility and grounds needs based on projected programming scenarios.
COCC is currently conducting a comprehensive facilities master planning process, producing a 10-year plan to guide the College while taking into consideration appropriate College design considerations, sustainability, siting and development of new facilities and renovation of existing facilities. Based on projected programming needs, the process builds on the previous plan and involves a Facilities Master Plan Steering Committee, the COCC Board of Directors, faculty, staff and students, as well as community members. Outcomes of the process include designating development areas, circulation routes, parking areas, gateways, and identifiable campus perimeter presence. The College is particularly interested in creating a facilities master plan that is principle-based and economically, socially and environmentally sustainable.
