Increase in Architectural/Engineering Contract, Temple Hoyne Buell Hall, Urbana (34) In July and September 1990, the Board of Trustees authorized the employment of Perkins 8c Will, Chicago, to provide the architectural/engineering services required from the program analysis through the bidding phase of the Temple Hoyne Buell Hall project at the Urbana campus. T h e original program contemplated that the building's air-conditioning requirements would be satisfied from an existing library air-conditioning center source. Subsequently, the program requirements have been revised to require year-round air conditioning which can best be satisfied from self-contained air-conditioning facilities. This change in program will not impact the construction budget but will require additional architectural/engineering fees for the professional services required to design the facilities. T h e cost of those services through the bidding phase will be provided on a lump-sum basis of $40,000. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the contract with Perkins 8c Will, Chicago, be increased by $40,000 to provide the services as described above. Funds are available from private gift funds through the University of Illinois and from funds appropriated by the State of Illinois.
