How Does "Urban-Gown" Differ From "Town-Gown?"
Research on over 1000 campuses suggests that potential town-gown stress vulnerability levels can be identified for small cities, suburban and rural campus environments. However, multiple institutions within a larger metropolitan area create a challenge given the significantly increased number of variables in an urban setting. This session will first present an overview of the non-urban setting research followed by a open discussion among those present to explore commonalities in dealing with ?urban-gown? stress identification and best practices to address them.

WDMs: The Intelligent Search for Weapons Against WDMs: The Intelligent Search for Weapons Against Deferred Maintenance
Abstract: Planners identify worn-out buildings to be replaced and adaptive re-use for structures with salvageable integrity, but how do we decide what to keep and what to discard? What's the financial affect of each choice? If we determine the capital costs, can we predict future operating burdens, identify viable renewal cycles, and avoid what led to past facility deterioration? Understanding the fundamental deferred maintenance backlog, whether by building, by function or for campus infrastructure, is fundamental to making informed decisions about the future. The historic roots, continuing trends, and actual costs of deferred maintenance, as well as their impact on campus planning and the future of our institutions will be shared with participants.
