Employment of Architect/Engineer, Chilled Water System — Phase I, Chicago

(37) The president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that Stanley Consultants, Inc., Chicago, be employed for the professional services required through the construction phase to provide a distributed chilled water system for the central block of buildings at the west side of the Chicago campus. The firm's fee for the professional services through the construction phase will be a fixed fee of $264,000 plus authorized reimbursable expenses estimated to be $26,400. The estimated $3,000,000 Phase I project will consist of installation of sufficient chiller capacity to provide chilled water for air conditioning the Clinical Sciences Building and Neuropsychiatric Institute. Due to extensive remodeling contemplated for these two buildings, the existing chillers are incapable of providing the chilled water required for air conditioning the buildings. In addition, an extension of the chilled-water loop which serves some of the central block of buildings is part of this project. Funds are available from the Institutional Funds budget of the Chicago Physical Plant.

On motion of Dr. Bacon, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mr. Boyle, Mrs. Calder, Dr. Gindorf, Mr. Grabowski, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Lopez, Ms. Reese; no, none; absent, Governor Edgar. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Begovich, Mr. Lawless; no, none.)
