AUTHORITY TO EXECUTE CERTAIN CONTRACTS, URBANA (20) The General Rules Concerning University Organization and Procedure provide that contracts involving payment by the University in excess of $7,500 in one fiscal year shall be specifically authorized by the Board of Trustees, except for emergency situations when the President is authorized to act. In the operation of the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, it will be necessary to enter into contracts for concerts, entertainment, and productions to be offered in the Center. Expenditures under such contracts will normally be from funds received through the sale of tickets or from other sources of the Center. In most cases, the fee will be the standard fee charged for the production. Problems of scheduling and negotiation for such events and timing make it difficult to secure advance approval of the Board of Trustees on such contracts. I therefore recommend that the Vice President and Comptroller and the Secretary of the Board of Trustees be authorized to execute such contracts when approved by the Chancellor of the Urbana-Champaign campus of the University.
