Glossary Term: Space Allocation (relating to Space Management and Allocation)

Definition:

space provided to a unit on a permanent or temporary basis to enable the unit to carry out its function/purpose. Temporary space allocations (up to six months) can be authorized from the reserve space by the Associate Vice-President (Facilities Management); longer temporary arrangements require the approval of the Space Allocation Committee. The allocation of space does not imply the allocation of additional resources to use the space. Those are a unit's responsibility.
