Description of Proposal: The UW Medical Center – Northwest Major Institution Master Plan will allow for space on the campus to accommodate projected population growth and corresponding increase in healthcare demands.

The planning process is intended to foresee, assess, and outline mitigation measures for potential direct, indirect and cumulative impacts of development.
