- Space movements or shifts;
- Additional space needs; or
- When the functional use of a space changes (for example, changing an office to a small meeting room, even when the space stays within the same department).
To submit a request, please .
Please note that identifying available and acceptable space may take some time, especially if other staff/programs need to move to accommodate a request.
If you are requesting changes to your program/department’s existing space that don’t change the function of the space, please use the Facilities Modification (FacMod) process. Examples can include needs for additional electrical outlets, installing equipment, painting, plumbing changes, ventilation, and other similar work.
