A brief description of how the physical campus plan or amendment includes sustainability:

The physical campus plan for Ohio State Lima includes the following (excerpts from the Campus Master Plan):

> Keep the campus compact and contiguous as it grows.
> Encourage growth toward the south, southwest and west.
> Establish sustainability as the goal to guide all current and
future decisions about campus growth.
> Assume that the student population will grow modestly.
> Build new campus spaces and uses to retain current students
and attract more in the future.
> Develop the program of new spaces and uses with the goal of
meeting the needs of students.
> Support the overall direction of compact, incremental growth
of the academic core and a compact residential district adjacent
to and well-connected to the campus.

> Establish the entrance from Route 309 as the best regional
location to which to direct visitors. Create a new, positive
image for the campus as a whole at this entrance –
a welcoming statement.
> Strengthen the local character of the entrance from Mumaugh
Road, which could offer views of recreational facilities
available to students and the community.
> Provide from the main entrance, Route 309, and the secondary
entrance, Mumaugh Road, a good sequence for visitors to
reach common administrative functions and buildings.
> Retain and enhance the woodland image as an important,
defining identity for the campus.
> Select consistent landscaping materials, furnishings,
lighting, signage, outdoor spaces, and other elements
throughout the campus.

> Design, build, renovate, and maintain campus buildings to
be of the highest quality within a cohesive array of compatible
materials and styles.
> Reinforce the commitment to public safety by instituting
uniform security measures and insuring appropriate lighting
levels.
> Constantly maintain landscaping, furnishings and buildings
to high standards of appearance, good repair and sustainability,
as key to the experience of a strong, positive campus image.
> Develop an iconic focal element for the campus at the Route
309 entrance.
