Increase in Contract, Harker Hall Reconstruction, Urbana

(17) On September 12, 1991, the board approved the award of a contract to Anderson Electric, Inc., Mattoon, for the electrical work for the Harker Hall reconstruction project at the Urbana campus. The Foundation, on the recommendation of the campus, has requested that a card-access security system be installed in Harker Hall. This building contains a significant amount of data processing and computer equipment along with confidential donor records. It has been determined that this system will further enhance the building's security. A proposal from the contractor has been received in the amount of $31,350 to install the card-access security system at Harker Hall. The project architect and construction manager have approved the cost of the additional work. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the contract with Anderson Electric, Inc., Mattoon, be increased by $31,350 for the work described. The project construction contract contingency fund will cover the cost. Therefore, no change in the project budget authorization is required. Funds are available from private gift funds through the University of Illinois Foundation.

On motion of Mrs. Shepherd, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Boyle, Mr. Downey, Mr. Grabowski, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Reese, Mrs. Shepherd; no, Mrs. Calder; absent, Dr. Bacon, Governor Edgar.
