UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS

445

The project consists of remodeling the first floor (approximately 9,000 square feet) to create offices for three units of the Department of Central Management Services (DCMS). These units will be displaced from the building located at the southeast corner of Wood and Taylor Streets (Healy School) as a result of UIC's acquisition of that property. The State of Illinois has agreed to transfer title of Healy School to UIC upon the condition that the University provide adequate space to the units of DCMS being displaced. To provide functional space for the DCMS units, it is recommended that the former laundry facility be remodeled. This will require: new drywall, flooring, and ceiling; installation of a ramp; and mechanical, plumbing, and electrical modifications. A memorandum of understanding allowing DCMS use of the laundry facility has been negotiated. A schedule of the bids received has been filed with the secretary of the board for record. Funds are available from the Restricted Funds Operating Budget, Office of the Vice Chancellor for Health Services.

On motion of Mrs. Gravenhorst, these contracts were awarded by the following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Engelbrecht, Dr. Gindorf, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Lopez, Mrs. O'Malley, Ms. Reese; no, none; absent, Governor Edgar. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Malone, Mr. Mathew, Mr. Rose; no, none.)

Employment of Construction Manager for Roof Repairs and Replacements, Chicago

(18) The president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends the employment of Sverdrup Facilities, Inc., Skokie, for the professional construction management services required for the campus roof repairs and replacements at the Chicago campus. The firm's fee for the professional services required through completion of the repairs and replacements will be a fixed fee of $110,000, including reimbursable expenses, not to exceed $10,000. The project consists of the repair of leaking roofs and exterior facades on approximately 24 campus buildings each having several separate roofing systems. The repairs are expected to range from minimal to substantial. The extensive number of areas involved, and the variations in the scope of work required, necessitate the services of a construction manager to coordinate the development of repair specifications and the actual repair work. Funds are available from Physical Plant institutional funds.

On motion of Mrs. Gravenhorst, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Engelbrecht, Dr. Gindorf, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Lopez, Mrs. O'Malley, Ms. Reese; no, none; absent, Governor Edgar. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Malone, Mr. Mathew, Mr. Rose; no, none.)
