Talks involved cooperation with developer and potential cost of apartments for students
Vice President James Perey
Vice President of Strategic Initiatives James Perey briefly outlined to the Governing Board at its March meeting discussions Yavapai Community College has carried on with a developer of an apartment complex adjacent the Verde Campus.
The discussions centered on students on Pell grants and a need for some of them to live on or near campus. Currently, the availability of housing is limited for students. There were also discussions about possible entryways to the apartment complex and potential sharing of other Community College assets.
Perey said the developer was moving ahead with plans and would be meeting the Clarkdale officials regarding the project.
