Design Standards

Permitted Uses

All educational and research uses; residential uses for students and staff; accessory commercial and civic uses that serve the campus community; event facilities; parking.

Typical Application

Growing universities or research institutions planning significant expansion beyond their existing footprint. The CMP‑EI2 district supports densification while requiring a coordinated campus plan.
