Supplemental Funding, Collaborative Research Laboratory, Associated Health Professions Building, Chicago (Contract with the Capital Development Board)

(13) In October 1989, the Board of Trustees requested the Capital Development Board to employ an architect/engineer (John Victor Frega Associates, Ltd., Chicago) for the professional services required in connection with the remodeling of an existing hospital kitchen (Room 125) in the Associated Health Professions Building at Chicago for a new 1,000 square foot laboratory to serve the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics and the Department of Physical Therapy. In July 1990, the University provided an additional $300,000 to expand the project scope to include remodeling of contiguous areas (Rooms 124, 125K, 125L, 125M, and 125N) of approximately 1,900 square feet. Initially, it was contemplated that the two projects be administered separately by the Capital Development Board and the University ($232,800 and $300,000, respectively). In order to minimize the construction complexities, to reduce the total duration for construction, and to more effectively manage the total project, it is now recommended that the two projects be combined. T h e State statute provides that the Capital Development Board and the University may contract with each other and other parties for the design and construction of any project to be constructed on University property. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the University contract with the Capital Development Board to undertake its portion of the project at a cost not to exceed $300,000. University funds are available in the institutional funds budget of the Chicago campus.

On motion of Mr. Boyle, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mr. Boyle, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Grabowski, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Reese; no, none; absent, Governor Edgar, Mrs. Shepherd, Mr. Wolff. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Ms. Caporusso, Mr. Mitchell; no, none.)

This portion of the site was required for construction of the runway extension.
