1986] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 557 The proposed plan of the campus boundary north of Green Street is consistent with the north campus master plan approved by the Board of Trustees on April 10, 1986. A master plan for the campus south of Armory Avenue to St. Mary's Road is to be presented to the Board of Trustees in July. When planning for the remainder of the campus is authorized, and a complete campus master plan is approved by the Board of Trustees, the boundary of the campus south of Green Street may change. It was made clear that the authority requested would be exercised only as needed; otherwise, normal procedures for handling the acquisition of real estate would be followed. O n motion of M r . Howard, these recommendations were approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Day, Mr. Forsyth, Mrs. Gravenhorst, M r . H a h n , Mr. Howard, Mr. Logan, Mr. Madden, Mrs. Shepherd, Miss Smith; no, none; absent, Governor Thompson. ( T h e student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. L a m m ; no, none; absent, Mr. Becker.)

In the case of the executive director of the University of Illinois Foundation, a selection now has been made and the appointment will be announced at the forthcoming meeting of the Foundation. EXECUTIVE SESSION ADJOURNED T h e r e being no further business, the executive session adjourned at 11:20 a.m. for meetings of the Finance and Audit Committee and the Buildings and Grounds Committee. After adjournment for lunch, the board reconvened as a Committee of the Whole to receive a report from Vice President Weir and members of his staff outlining preliminary considerations in the development of the operating budget request for Fiscal Year 1988. Background information was presented in the major budget categories: continuing and programmatic components; resource matching requirements; and special services/ funding requirements. T h e tentative dollar figures now being considered amount to an incremental increase of $43.5 million (7.9 to 8 percent of the estimated 1987 operating budget base). This figure assumes compensation increases of 9 percent (5 percent salary, 2 percent to close the salary gap, and 2 percent for benefit improvements); general cost increases of 4.5 percent; utilities, 7 percent; library price increases, 5 percent; and $1.3 million for operation and maintenance of new areas and facilities. A second presentation will be made in J u n e concerning new programs. T h e complete preliminary recommendation, including the capital request, will be presented in July with final action proposed in September.
