COMMUNITY'(SOME ON THE StAfF Of THE UNIVERSITY) RELATIVE TO THE FUTURE OF THE <br />UNIVERSITY. THE BURDEN Of THEIR REMARKS IS THAT NEITHER THE UNIVERSITY NOR THE CITY <br />AND THE COUNTY CAN EFFECTIVELY AND PROFITABLY ACCOMMODATE GROWTH OF THE UNIVERSITY TO <br />THE !8~000 TO 20,000 STUDENT LEVEL BY 1980 SUGGESTED FROM SOME SOURCES. <br /> <br /> ET IS MY BELIEF THAT THE CITY AND THE COUNTY SHOULD ASSIST THE UNIVERSITY IN ANY WAY <br />THAT WE CAN TO PROVIDE FACILITIES TO ACCOMMODATE ITS GROWTH. HOWEVER, WE FERVENTLY HOPE <br />THAT THE UNIVERSITY CAN GROW AT A RATE WHICH WILL PERMIT IT TO MAINTAIN THE EXCELLENCE <br />IT HAS ATTAINED. <br /> <br /> ~ FEAR THAT THERE ARE PRESSURES ON THE UNIVERSITY WHICH ARE VIRTUALLY FORCING IT TO <br /> <br />GROW TOO RAPIDLY. AS A CONSEQUENCE THE COMMUNITY ITSELF MAY BE FORCED TO EXPAND ITS <br /> <br />FACILITIES TOO RAPIDLY. <br /> <br /> IT IS QUITE CLEAR THAT WE IN THIS CITY AND COUNTY ARE NOT YET PROVIDING ADEQUATE <br /> <br />HOUSING FOR PEOPLE OF ALL INCOME LEVELS. ARE WE GOING TO DO SO IN THE FUTURE? THIS IS <br /> <br />JUST ONE PROBLEM AMONG MANY. <br /> FOR THIS AND OTHER REASONS, I SHOULD LIKE TO PROPOSE THAT THE COUNCIL OR THE PLANNING <br /> <br />COMMISSION BEGIN TO STUDY IN DEPTH THE FUTURE GROWTH OF THIS AREA, AND JUST WHAT THE CITY <br /> <br />SHOULD DO ABOUT IT. <br /> <br /> ON MOTION BY MR. FIFE, SECONDED BY MR. WRIGHT, THE COUNCIL VOTED TO GO INTO EXECUTIVE <br />SESSION BY THE FOLLOWING RECORDED VOTE: AYES: MR. BARBOUR7 HR. DAVIS, MR. FIFE~ MR. VAN <br /> <br />YAHRES AND MR. WRIGHT. NOES: NONE. <br /> <br /> ON MOTION THE MEETING ADJOURNED; <br /> <br />PRES I DENT <br /> <br />COUNC IL CHAMBER DECEMBER 28, 1971 <br /> <br />PUBLIC HEARING RE: <br />CHARTER CHANGES <br /> <br />PURSUANT TO THE FOLLOWING CALL: <br /> <br />HR. CHARLES L. BARBOUR <br />HR. KENNETH E. DAVIS <br />HR, FRANCIS H. FIFE <br />MR. MITCHELL VAN YAHRES <br />MR. J, W. WRIGHT, JR. <br /> <br />TAKE NOTICE <br /> <br />A SPECIAL MEETING OF THE COUNCIL WILL BE HELD THIS EVENING THE 28TH <br /> <br />INST. AT 7:30 P. M. O'CLOCK. <br /> <br />1. PUBLIC HEARING - PROPOSED CHARTER CHANGES. <br /> <br />J. S.
