The IMP community meeting previously scheduled for Jan. 30 has been rescheduled to Feb. 11.

The Office of Facilities Management hosts the first of three community meetings on Monday, Feb. 11, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., at the University Club, Conference Room A, to lead a discussion of the University’s proposed Institutional Master Plan (IMP). This is a more detailed version of Pitt’s draft campus master plan, which was created after more than a year of input from Pitt faculty, students and staff as well as local community members and partners.

Using the feedback received at meetings last fall, Facilities Management is now developing it into an IMP — a formal document required by the City of Pittsburgh that provides details related to City regulations, including building height and mass, parking, urban design and neighborhood compatibility. An IMP helps provide greater understanding about institutional plans to the community and public. After receiving community input at meetings like the one on Jan. 30, the University’s draft IMP will be submitted to the City this spring.

In addition to the draft IMP being shared, Facilities Management will share information about the Scaife Hall addition and renovation project, which will provide additional classrooms, labs and library and student spaces. The project will partially renovate the existing structure, as well as include both new construction and the demolition of auditorium space on the corner of Lothrop and Terrace streets.
