236 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [March 19 Use of the Public Health Laboratory and Office Building for the School of Public Health, Medical Center (20) T h e Chancellor at the Medical Center campus has recommended that the University accept, subject to University approval of the plans and specifications, the use of a portion (currently uncompleted) of the State of Illinois Public Health Laboratory and Office Building located at 2121 West Taylor Street, Chicago. T h e space will be completed by the General Services Administration. During the last several years the University has participated in discussions concerning the acquisition of this space for the programs of the School of Public Health. T h e completed space will eliminate the need for a new building, which has been requested by the University for several years, but has never been approved by the Board of Higher Education. T h e University's current FY 1976 capital budget includes $159,000 for planning for remodeling the School of Public Health facility. This amount, together with an estimated amount of $2,500,000 in the FY 1976 capital budget requested by the General Services Administration, will satisfy the majority of the completion requirements exclusive of equipment. The Vice President for Planning and Allocation concurs in this recommendation. T h e acquisition of this space is supported by State agencies including the Bureau of the Budget, the Board of Higher Education, and the General Services Administration. I recommend approval subject to further action by the Illinois General Assembly. On motion of Mr. Livingston, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Howard, Mr. Lenz, Mr. Livingston, Mr. Neal, Mrs. Rader, Mrs. Shepherd, Mr. Velasquez; no, none; absent, Governor Walker. Noninstructional Capital Improvements (21) T h e President of the University, with the concurrence of appropriate administrative officers, recommends approval of the following projects for submission as "noninstructional facilities" to the Illinois Board of Higher Education. 1. Engineering Open House Memorial— Urbana Campus This project will provide a small sitting area adjacent to the west entrance of Engineering Hall. It will include concrete benches, brick paving, and evergreen hedge. It will also include a memorial marker constructed by the students in Engineering to commemorate this year's Engineering Open House. T h e project is estimated to cost $3,500. T h e University will pay for this development with funds donated by the Engineering Open House Committee. 2. Alumni Association Memorial— Urbana Campus This project is a sitting area adjacent to the east entrance of the Administration Building. It will consist of concrete benches, brick paving, and some ornamental shrubs. T h e project is estimated to cost $3,500. T h e University will pay for this development with funds donated by the Alumni Association. 3. Mothers' Association Memorial— Urbana Campus This project will consist of improvements to the existing entrance plaza at the Student Services Building on the Urbana campus. A bulletin board for student announcements is to be constructed and, if funds permit, concrete benches are to be added (replacing a broken curb). T h e project is estimated to cost $3,500. T h e University will pay for this development with funds donated by the Mothers' Association.
