S E T T L E M E N T O F CLAIM F O R REMEDIAL W O R K IN T H E UTILITIES T U N N E L EXTENSION T O T H E BEHAVIORAL S C I E N C E S BUILDING, C H I C A G O C I R C L E (28) On December 18, 1968, the Board of Trustees awarded a contract to the E. H . Marhoefer, Jr., Co., Franklin Park, for construction of an underground utilities tunnel extension to the Behavioral Sciences Building at the Chicago Circle campus. During the course of construction, the contractor encountered latent subsoil conditions and submitted a claim for additional compensation in the amount of $176,446 for damages, delays, and extra work. The Physical Plant Department at the Chicago Circle campus and Sargent & Lundy, the project engineers, have determined that there is substantial basis for the claim that subsurface conditions were different from what could reasonably have been expected as the result of the test borings taken before the project was begun and that this resulted in extra costs totaling $24,346.90. T h e contractor has agreed to accept this amount in final settlement of all its claims. Accordingly, the President of the University, with the concurrence of appropriate administrative officers, recommends payment to the E. H . Marhoefer, Jr., Co. in the amount of $24,346.90 in full and final settlement of all said contractor's claims resulting from its work on the utilities tunnel extension to the Behavioral Sciences Building at the Chicago Circle campus, the payment to be made upon receipt by the University of releases approved by the University Counsel. Funds are available in state capital appropriations to the University and have been released by the Governor. On motion of Mr. Swain, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Grimes, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Howard, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Neal, Mr. Pogue, Mr. Swain; no, none; absent, Dr. Bakalis, Governor Ogilvie, Mr. Steger. LEASE WITH LA SALLE HOTEL CO., CHICAGO (29) The Vice President and Comptroller has recommended a new lease with the La Salle Hotel Co. for rental of space on the twentieth floor of the La Salle Hotel used as the "Illini Center" (2505 sq. ft.) and for the area on the second floor used by the Division of University Extension and Cooperative Extension Service in Agriculture and Home Economics (2161 sq. ft.). T h e second floor area is being decreased by 172 square feet by the omission of one room. The rental rate for the area on the second floor will remain at $6.50 per square foot per year. T h e Illini Center area rental rate is to be increased from $6.50 to $6.80 per square foot due to refurbishing the area as requested by the University. The lease is for the period July 1, 1971, through June 30, 1972, for a total rental of $31,080.50, with successive yearly options to renew for four additional years, subject to escalation of rental rates for increases in real estate taxes and direct expenses of operation and maintenance. I concur and recommend that the Comptroller and the Secretary of the Board be authorized to execute the lease. O n m o t i o n of M r .
