Waukesha — Carroll University is seeking to build a new four-story student residence hall adjacent to its campus, a university official said Monday.

The Plan Commission is set to take up a request for rezoning and approving preliminary plans for the building, which would have retail space on the first level. The site is on the west side of Grand Ave. north of College Ave.

Carroll will lease the building and have "sole management rights," said Ron Lostetter, the university's chief financial officer.

The university had its largest-ever freshman class this past fall, Lostetter said, but the development of another residence hall was already part of a longer-term plan.

Once completed, about 230 students would be housed in the building.
