Facilities Management
Planning, Design & Construction
Facilities Planning is responsible for long and short term campus planning and the implementation of strategic solutions for the University's space needs. In order to maximize space utilization, the department works with university administration and faculty to develop space programs for the California State University, Fresno campus and other university properties, including new buildings, renovations, and satellite campus facilities. Facilities Planning is also responsible for tracking and maintaining all space data, such as floor plans, square footages, and departmental assignments. Additionally, it provides support for the various phases of major and minor capital construction projects, including both new construction and renovations occurring on campus as well as off-campus facilities housing University employees.
Services include:
- Building code compliance

Building Permit Generation

The campus building official is responsible for the validation of code. Obtaining a building permit will be facilitated by the project manager.
