Update on Manhattan campus 1xbet online games login relocations
Earlier this fall I announced the university’s plan to raze several deteriorating buildings in order to address our deferred maintenance backlog, generate operating efficiencies and increase 1xbet online games login utilization. In partnership with the affected departments, we worked to identify existing 1xbet online games login for relocation while achieving several university and Kansas Board of Regents goals:
- Provide a better working environment.
- Improve alignment of the relocated departments with the customers they serve or collaborating entities.
- Maximize building 1xbet online games login utilization.
- Align necessary renovation costs with the reduction of the 1xbet online games login .
Today, I am pleased to share the strategic unit relocation plans identified to support these actions. Necessary renovations are underway and all relocations 1xbet online games login be completed by fall 2023. In addition, insight from leaders at Kansas State University Police, the College of Health and Human Sciences and K-State Gardens are included at the conclusion of this letter.
Relocation plans for current occupants of Edwards Hall, currently rated F in condition, to 1xbet online games login that is rated B or better are:

- Environmental Health and Safety 1xbet online games login relocate to the first floor of Dykstra Hall and the training center building north of Dykstra Hall.
- K-State Police department 1xbet online games login relocate to Stone House.

- Kinesiology research space 1xbet online games login relocate to Lafene.
Relocation plans for current occupants of the gymnasium, currently rated D in condition, to 1xbet online games login that is rated C or better are:

- K-State Athletics 1xbet online games login relocate to new training facilities at the Athletics complex.
- UFM courses, recreation center club sports and military science activities 1xbet online games login be relocated to various campus buildings based on needs.
As a reminder, the demolition of the K-State Gardens' conservatory 1xbet online games login begin in spring 2023. The removal was announced in the fall and does not require staff to be relocated.
As we look to the future, the university’s next phase of space migration 1xbet online games login focus on vacating the Unger Complex and returning staff to main campus. The deferred maintenance backlog at Unger Complex is million, and eliminating space at the Unger Complex 1xbet online games login generate approximately 0,000 in annual operating efficiencies and increase space utilization within buildings located on campus. Space planning with departments housed in Unger begins in January 2023. Space renovations to main campus buildings resulting from Unger relocations begin in early fall 2023. The earliest date relocations from Unger would begin is summer 2024 and is subject to change. The future status of the Unger complex 1xbet online games login be finalized as part of our Campus Master Planning process.
Overall, these actions eliminate approximately million from K-State's estimated 0 million deferred maintenance backlog, generate approximately .1 million in annual operating efficiencies and reduce approximately 200,000 square feet of 1xbet online games login .
These actions require support and significant effort from multiple units and departments across 1xbet online games login . Thank you for your assistance, flexibility and continued patience as we work through these changes.
Sincerely,
Ethan Erickson
Vice president for administration and finance
