Lease of Space, 1817 South Neil Street, Champaign

(37) The director of athletics has proposed to consolidate the offices of the administrative staff and some coaches of the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics. They currently occupy space in University facilities at the Assembly Hall, the Armory, Memorial Stadium, the Intramural-Physical Education Building, and in leased space in a building located at 302 E. John Street, Champaign. The DIA budget is now being charged for rent and operating costs at both the Assembly Hall and the 302 E. John Street locations. Recently, the opportunity developed to lease space in a building located at 1817 South Neil Street, Champaign, which is suitable for the relocation of those offices now occupying portions of the buildings mentioned above. The building is approximately one-half mile west of the Assembly Hall, near St. Mary's Road. The space is of high quality, is properly configured, and is in a condition that will require only minor changes by the landlord and none by the University. This will make possible the vacating of some space in the Assembly Hall (approximately 2,710 sq. ft.) and
