A
campus development plan is the deliberate spatial organisation of human
activities to achieve the highest possible social and economic benefit,
convenient and aesthetics in the light of available resources of land,
manpower, finance, technology, time among others. (Jeriko, 1998)Section 91 of
the urban and regional planning law of 1992, decree no. 88 defines a
development plan as “a plan indicating the manner in which an area of land
should be developed”.
A
physical development plan is a comprehensive long range plan intended to guide
growth and development of a community or region. It includes analysis, recommendations
and proposals for the community’s population, economy, housing, transportation,
community facilities, and land use. It is based on public input surveys
planning initiatives, existing development, physical characteristics and
social-economic conditions. Campus master plan provides a policy framework
aimed at creating an environment that is functional and can satisfy human activities
through controlling of growth and physical development in universities.
(Suleiman,1988).
Comprehensive
master planning started in 1920s in many parts of the developed countries when
a second generation of planners show concern not only for urban form but for
urban and regional function. In 1928AlfredMettman defined master plan as a
plan/design for the physical development of the territory of the city. It
constitutes the division of the land between public and private users,
specifying the general location and extends of a new public improvement. It
should be based on comprehensive and detailed survey such as existing situation
of private and public, the trend toward redistribution and growth of the
population, industry and business estimates of future trend of growth and the
allotment of the territory of the city in accordance of such data and estimated
trends so as to provide the necessary public facilities and the area for
private development corresponding to the need of the community of the present
and prospects.
