tigate the concerns raised by many in recent weeks who oppose the move of the Maxwell Street Market. Ms. Lopez noted that she planned to abstain from voting on agenda item no. 32 that deals with plans for future use of this area by the Chicago campus.

Extension of Agreements for Fiscal Year 1995, University of Illinois Foundation and Alumni Association

(8) On November 18, 1982, the Board of Trustees adopted revised guidelines governing certain fiscal procedures, including those between the University and University-related organizations. The University of Illinois Foundation and Alumni Association asked to be designated University-related organizations as provided in the guidelines and have operated under service agreements with the Board of Trustees for that purpose. Such agreements have been reviewed on an annual basis. Because legislative action upon University appropriations has not been completed, the president of the University requests authorization to extend the present agreements beginning July 1, 1994, and continuing until further action of the board. Funds to support these agreements are included in the appropriation bill of the General Assembly to meet the ordinary and contingent expenses of the University for FY 1995. These funds will be included in the University's budget request for FY 1995 to be presented to the Board of Trustees. The agreements are subject to the availability of such funds.

On motion of Dr. Bacon, authority was given as requested 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, Ms. Huff; absent, Mr. Riley.)

Intergovernmental Agreement, Illinois Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities, Chicago

(9) The chancellor at Chicago recommends approval of an agreement with the Illinois Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities (DMHDD) for the transfer of the research and education programs formerly operated under the auspices of the Illinois State Psychiatric Institute. Under this Intergovernmental Agreement, the University will provide services for the clinical training of psychiatric personnel, the operation of two clinical research units, and performance of associated research. The University will provide these services on behalf of DMHDD and shall be overseen by a joint Advisory Board (as outlined in the Master Academic Affiliation Agreement). DMHDD shall retain the ultimate authority over its affairs including its authority and responsibility for patient care. Patients in the clinical research units will remain patients of DMHDD. It is expected that the University will hire approximately 150 individuals to operate these programs. Current employees of DMHDD associated with these programs will be offered the opportunity of transferring to the University. DMHDD, in turn, will support the permanent transfer of $7,870,100 in General Revenue Funds from DMHDD to the University in the appropriation process. In addition, DMHDD will transfer current equipment utilized by the programs, will make available appropriate space in their facility at 1601 W. Taylor Street, Chicago, and will be solely responsible for coordinating all maintenance and repairs to the facility. Services to be provided include utilities, security, housekeeping, grounds and structural maintenance, janitorial, and heating and air conditioning. DMHDD shall also provide and maintain ancillary services including diagnostic radiology services, dietetic services, emergency services, infection control, medical records services, clinical laboratory services, and pharmaceutical services.
