  5. Expectations & General Rules

  6. Student Union Initiative (SUI) Background: A student referendum that passed in 2006 Passed with 65% of the vote to approve $97 million dollars Was for both Union South & Memorial Union Students paying for approx. 58% of the total project

  7. SUI/Building Project Budget Things to Remember: Budget is for both buildings Not just construction & architect costs Has to include all project related expenses* * The Union has and continues to pay for certain costs out of operating budget (i.e. Peet’s)

  8. Budget Cont. Current MU Budget: $52 million

  9. Project Scope: RFP Calls for: “15%” or Pre-Planning for entire Memorial Union “Think big picture for the entire building” Research on use, code review, Historical Structure Reports, etc. Estimate budgets for current and future phases Programmatic space tabulation “100%” or Detailed Planning for West Wing (phase 1) “Think from paper to real life” Program planning and design for Theater, Play Circle, Hoofers, Mini Courses/Craftshop, meeting rooms, etc. Interior design services for furnishings, signage, and additional spaces Landscape and site design services Equipment planning and specification

  10. Design Principles Design Principles: Enhancing the people magnet effect, the building and the site should be a hub, connecting the region. Green space will create a people-friendly oasis. At every scale, the building should feel exceptionally comfortable. Back of house functions are omnipresent but invisible. Human Factors are emphasized. Every space in the building advance the mission, vision and values of the Wisconsin Union as the University’s cross-campus community builder. Connection between indoors and outdoors is emphasized. The building is far more impressive in person than in photos. Crafted by the Union’s Steering Committee (Leadership Team & Council Exec)

  11. What is Design Development • Transition from Concept to Construction Documents • Coordinating the details

  13. What you should know that is, and is not, obvious: • Readily Apparent: • Our programs are what make the Union successful and are essential to meeting our mission. • Not So Readily Apparent: • Dining and retail provide important ways for students, faculty, staff, and members to connect with the campus and fulfill our mission. • Revenue from these units are essential to providing programming, and will only become more so in the future. These operations must be successful if the Wisconsin Union can continue to meet the needs of the campus and community in the decades to come.
