The acquisition of approximately 130 acres of undeveloped land west of U. S. Highway 395, as indicated on the Master Site Plan for U. of N. The land is presently being acquired by the University Land Foundation. Approximately 50% of the total 450 acres, the western and southwestern portions, will ultimately remain with the University, with the balance going to the Highway Department and the City of Reno.

The present area of the Reno Campus is approximately 187 acres. The projected growth of the student population indicates that additional lands will be required for future development. Authorization to acquire this property should include authority to initiate a condemnation procedure if required.

Present.ly the students and faculty in the Physics Department are temporarily housed in inadequate quarters located in Mackay Science, Mechanical Arts, the old E!~ctri~a_l_En_g_ill~er_ing, Veterinary Science and Desert Research Buildings on the Campus, and in the Sage Building at stead. Several of these buildings have been surveyed and recommended for demolition due to structural hazards. A consolidation of the program into one area is essential.

Repair of the roofs over the walkways, including repair of settled columns, damaged soffits, etc., and installation of new scuppers, downspouts, etc.

fuspection of this building has revealed that the columns supporting the outer edge of the roofs over the walkways have settled. This settlement has caused the roof to sag, resulting in ponding water, leaks, and damage ~o the soffits, sheathing, etc. This project will restore the building to its original condition and prevent re-occurrence of the damage. If not repaired, structural damage could occur in the building.

Nevada cannot be qualified to receive the new standards and testing devices until a facility meeting minimum requirements to house them, is obtained. The monetary value of these standards is approximately $79,000. As new industries enter the state, there is need to test and certify standards used by these industries. These standards are lineal, mass, and liquid volume, and the present laboratory is without linear

A b.Iilding of approximately 21,900 gross square feet, to house the Department of Motor Vehicles and the Highway Patrol, containing public reception spaces, offices, storage, a three-car garage, radio repair facilities, and a Civil Defense Communications Center transmitter room designed for a protection factor of 100 against radioactive fallout. The Highway Patrol portion of the building will be similar to the Las Vegas Building recently completed. The building will be located on Highway Department property at the corner of Kietzke Lane and Coney Island Drive, in accordance with the State Master / plan for that area.

The existing space in the leased Reno off ice of the Department of Motor Vehicles is completely inadequate for the current staff of the various divisions of the Department, and in particular the Highway Patrol. The lease on the currently-used building expires on June 30, 1970·. Increased staff, which is being proposed, will place even more stress on the existing facilities. The proposed new building will provide better facilities for serving the public, adequate space for the current and future staff, and will provide a not-now-existing Communications Center for use during civil or military emergencies.
