North County
The State University and Colleges board of trustees today is scheduled to consider a resolution authorizing the purchase of property in San Marcos for a North County campus of San Diego State University.
Negotiations have been under way for acreage that was once part of a poultry farm south of California 78, but the trustees must give their blessing before a deal can be struck between the property owner and the state Department of General Services. The prospective sale price has been estimated put at between $10 million and $15 million.
SDSU officials hope the new campus will open by 1990, a prospect they have been pushing for two decades.
