Dr. Pugsley reported first that his conversations with Urban Renewal officials at both the Chicago regional offices and the Washington offices indicate that such offi cials believe that recent changes in the national goals will probably result in the cancelling out of plans by the City of Youngstown to acquire the Phase III area for redevelopment as a University area, unless some federal funds already com mitted to Youngstown can be shifted for use in acquiring and clearing the Phase III land area. He also reported that the funds appropriated by the General Assembly of Ohio for new buildings for Youngstown State University could not be used toward meeting expected increased costs of the Physical Edu cation Building because such building is to be constructed by The Youngstown University; but that it may be possible to use some reserve funds of Youngstown State University to meet such increased costs. Mr. Finlay and Mr. DeBartolo, of Caudill, Rowlett & Scott then presented, by use of slides, diagrams and discus sion an extensive informal review of such firm's proposed report concerning plans for facilities which will be needed to properly serve an expected 22,000 full-time equivalent students at the Youngstown location by 1985. Their proposals were discussed, and some effects of the possible nonavaila bility of the Phase III land area and the possible use of a • ,,,":.. ; ·':f){: ·'!i:: ,~ .~,.; ~-f J..)~"\' , . .'.·.·f ".<1 { L 615 r~ ~ land area in Canfield Township were also discussed. Messrs. Finlay and DeBartolo then retired from the meeting.
