Villanova Asks For Zoning to Fit Its Project

Watch video from the most recent Planning Commission meeting.

Watch a presentation by Villanova University, and responses from the public, in the video section of this article.

The newspaper reports the university hopes that being approved for new "residential housing for 1,160 undergraduates, a performing arts center, a parking structure for 1,200 cars, additions to two existing parking structures, and a pedestrian bridge may go more smoothly and more quickly by tailoring the zoning to fit the project rather than the other way around."
