11/12/25 CPFM Administration Building Picnic Table Area Level 2 Charging Station Installation Advisory
Posted on

Begin:  Wednesday, November 12, 2025

Building(s) or Area(s) Affected:  CPFM Administration Building Picnic Table Area

Scope:  Exciting news for the University of Oregon’s Campus Planning and Facilities Management (CPFM) team: a Level 2 charging station is being installed for the new Natural Areas Program Polaris XD. The charging station will be located just south of the CPFM Administration Building, near the picnic table, which remains at the south-east corner of the lot. During the 2024–2025 school year, 363 volunteers came together to remove more than 24 truckloads of invasive species from UO’s natural areas. In addition to this critical restoration work, the team planted 194 trees and shrubs friendly to pollinators and wildlife, helping to enhance biodiversity on campus. The program also hosted 21 events, providing hands-on educational experiences for 384 participants. To help meet the demands of this increased capacity, the program is piloting the use of an electric Polaris XD Pro—similar to the Kubota UTVs used by the Landscape and Grounds team. This vehicle will be used to transport invasive plant material, native species, water, and educational materials in and out of the natural areas efficiently and sustainably. This milestone reflects the ongoing collaboration between CPFM staff, faculty, students, and dedicated volunteers. Their shared commitment to sustainability and education continues to drive meaningful progress. Here’s to another year of innovation, impact, and community in the natural areas!

Services Impacted:  Users of the CPFM picnic table may notice the presence of the Polaris.

6/16/25 – 7/22/25 Miller Theatre Complex and Villard Hall Electrical Shutdown
Posted on

Begin:  Monday, June 16, 2025, at 8:00 am

End:      Tuesday, July 22, 2025, at 4:00 pm

Building(s) or Area(s) Affected:  Miller Theatre Complex and Villard Hall

Scope:  Miller Theatre Complex has been operating on a temporary power feed for the Heritage project over the last 1.5 years. Electricians will need to cut power to MTC and reinstall new power feeds to new electrical panels. This process will take 4-5 weeks in total to complete.

Services Impacted:  We have no occupants in Villard Hall, and all occupants of Miller Theatre have been planning on this shutdown and will be vacating the building after 6/15.  Temp power is in place to cover DAS antennas. Once power is off, we will have 24-hour round the clock service performing “fire watch” on the building, until power is restored.

Special Instructions:  Please shut down and unplug all multi-function copier devices as well as any printers during scheduled power outages. The software on these machines can be negatively affected due to the power surge when the power is turned back on.  A power surge can corrupt the clone files in the machines and change preconfigured settings.  For questions, please contact Kati Kronholm at 541-346-5370 or katik@uoregon.edu.  For non-copier questions, please reach out to the contact person listed below.
