( T h e student advisory vote was: Aye, Ms. Caporusso, Mr. Mitchell; no, none.) Amendment of Architectural/Engineering Contract, Temple Hoyne Buell Hall, Urbana (25) On July 12 and September 13, 1990, the Board of Trustees authorized the employment of the firm of Perkins & Will, Chicago, for the professional architectural and engineering services required for the Temple Hoyne Buell Hall project. Planning for that project has proceeded through the design development phase. On April 18, 1991, by separate contract, the firm of Perkins & Will, Chicago, was employed to provide the schematic design and design development phase services for a proposed auditorium adjacent to the Buell project. T h e architect has completed that phase of the work. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the firm of Perkins & Will, Chicago, be employed to provide the professional services required through the bidding phase of the auditorium project at a fixed fee of $36,520 and that the original agreement be amended accordingly. T h e additional funds for the professional services are available from gift funds. O n motion of Mr. Boyle, this r e c o m m e n d a t i o n was approved by t h e following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mr. Boyle, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Grabowski, Mrs. G r a v e n h o r s t , Mr. L a m o n t , Ms. Reese, Mrs. S h e p h e r d ; no, n o n e ; absent, G o v e r n o r Edgar, Mr. Wolff. ( T h e student advisory vote was: Aye, Ms. Caporusso, Mr. Mitchell; no, none.) Amendment of Willard Airport Grant, Urbana (26) In Fiscal Year 1988, the University received a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grant for $2,180,018 and a 10 percent Illinois Department of Transportation match of $242,224 to cover site work at the new terminal building as well as land acquisition. T h e complexity of funding the new terminal building, the court action required to acquire land for the project, uncertainty before the court action as to the cost of the land and other factors combined to make it difficult to develop accurate costs and acreage to assign to each of the several grants that were used to reimburse the University for land acquisition. All eligible costs have now been identified and final adjustments have been made in grant expenditures to insure maximum reimbursement to the University. T h e proposed amendment depletes all funds remaining in the grant. T h e deleted parcel, 11-1-F, and the remainder of parcel 11-1-E-l have been approved for reimbursement in another FA A grant. T h e chancellor at Urbana has recommended that the University amend the grant as described above. T h e vice president for business and finance concurs. I recommend approval. O n motion of Mr. Boyle, this r e c o m m e n d a t i o n was approved by t h e following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mr. Boyle, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Grabowski, Mrs. G r a v e n h o r s t , Mr. L a m o n t , Ms. Reese, Mrs. S h e p h e r d ; n o , n o n e ; absent, G o v e r n o r Edgar, Mr. Wolff.
