Remarks | IMPLEMENTED - Memo from University President Amacher dated January 13, 1994, states that "I am in agreement with this resolution and we have taken steps to implement the suggestion." |
Whereas | UTA's current system of draining rainwater off of the streets is inadequate; and |
Whereas | After heavy rain, students must cross streets and walkways that are many inches deep with water and mud; and |
Whereas | After walking through this water, shoes become muddy and sometimes ruined, socks become wet and feet begin to smell; and |
Whereas | Nobody wants to sit in a lecture class with a couple of hundred wet, smelly feet; and |
Whereas | The poor drainage system also makes a terrible impression on visitors who happen to come to UTA on a rainy day. |
Be It Further Resolved That | UTA inprove its water drainage and sewer system to drain fast enough so that no larger than normal puddles form where people must walk; and |
Be It Further Resolved That | During the time that this is being done, which may be a while, UTA should build some type of path or walkway leading from each major parking lot to the inner campus that is free of large puddles and mud; and |
Be It Further Resolved That | That civil engineering professors and students give advice in the design and creation of these systems. |
