EXECUTIVE SESSION O n m o t i o n of M r s . W a t k i n s , a n E x e c u t i v e S e s s i o n w a s o r d e r e d for c o n s i d e r a t i o n of t h e f o l l o w i n g m a t t e r s of b u s i n e s s : PURCHASE OF PROPERTY AT l O O l WEST GREEN STREET, URBANA (1) The Director of the Physical Plant and the Vice-President and Comptroller recommend purchase of the property at 1001 West Green Street, Urbana, at a price of $42,000. This property is a lot 63.6 feet frontage by 220.56 feet deep with a two-story and basement frame residence presently used as a two-apartment house. The property is in the area approved as the site for the Illinois Street Residence Halls and will be required prior to July, 1962. It is now on the market and should be acquired promptly rather than risk its possible acquisition by others for apartment development with the consequent delays as well as an increase in price which may be encountered if the purchase is deferred. The asking price of $42,000 is within the range of appraisals approved by the Committee on Buildings and Grounds. If purchase is authorized now, possession will be delivered not later than February 28, 1962, and taxes will be prorated. Funds are available in the state capital appropriations to the University for 1961-63 for land acquisition from the Universities Building Fund and have been released. I concur.
