Increase in Project Budget; and Award of Contracts for Remodeling Fourth Floor, Newmark Laboratory, Urbana (14) The original $2,030,000 project for remodeling the fourth floor of Newmark Civil Engineering Laboratory at the Urbana campus was to reconfigure approximately 15,400 square feet of laboratories and ancillary space on the fourth floor for Environmental Engineering. The proposed remodeling included new partitions, flooring, laboratory casework, fume hoods, laboratory services, mechanical systems, lighting, and electrical upgrades.

The cost of the additional work is estimated to be $945,000 for a total of 16,400 square feet of space on the fourth floor and mechanical support space on the third floor.
