Soodan & Associates, Inc., Chicago,1 for the professional construction management services required to construct an addition to the Wood Street Parking Complex (D-l) at the southwest corner of Wood and Taylor Streets at the Chicago campus. The firm's fee for the professional services required through the warranty phase of the project will be a fixed fee of $232,500; plus reimbursements, including general conditions, estimated to be $129,000. The proposed $12.7 million project consists of the design and construction of a 1,080-space addition to the Wood Street Parking Structure. The proposed expansion to the existing parking facility will support medical center operations as well as the general needs of Chicago's west side campus. A covered bridge connection is to be constructed between the existing parking complex and the Ambulatory Care Facility. Funding will be available from campus parking funds, with the possibility of reimbursement from a future bond sale. Mr. Zafra commented on these two items saying that they were needed due to the large number of patients and staff who need to have parking on the west side of the Chicago campus. He noted that the addition of the new Ambulatory Care facility would necessitate the provision of even more parking space. In response to questions from Mrs. Gravenhorst and Ms. Reese, Mr. Zafra indicated that a planned bridge from the parking facility to the Ambulatory Care facility could be deferred until later. On motion of Mrs. Gravenhorst, authority was given as requested by the following vote of members of the Executive Committee: Aye, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Lopez; no, none.
