From Columbia Missourian: The University of Missouri plans to request proposals from private developers interested in building properties on the MU campus.
This effort was announced at the last UM System Board of Curators meeting earlier in September. UM System President Mun Choi presented a map during the meeting highlighting zones across the campus where such a project might be feasible.
Mizzou spokesperson Christopher Ave said the university is seeking opportunities that could serve as year-round commercial assets while enhancing the game day experience within the MU Athletics Sports Complex.
Ave added the initiative will explore all appropriate opportunities for development, including “public-private partnerships” and long-term lease arrangements for mixed-use development, housing and other viable projects.
