MEDICAL PARK AT CHICAGO

(30) At the meeting of the Board on December 18, 1935 (Minutes, page 490) a report was made that the bill to create a Medical Park Authority in Chicago had been revised in accordance with the suggestions made by the University and this revised bill was introduced in the General Assembly. A new bill with a further revision was introduced on February 5, 1936, in the General Assembly (House Bill 6, third special session), which materially changes the provisions for the appointment of the Trustees of the proposed Medical Park Authority. The new bill provides that the "Authority shall be managed, controlled, and directed by a Board of seven trustees, one trustee to be representative of each of the following public bodies: the following three departments of the Government of the State of Illinois: Welfare Department, Health Department, and the University of Illinois; the two subdivisions of the Government of the County of Cook: Welfare Department and Cook County Hospital; the city of Chicago; and the Chicago Park District. These appointments shall be made by the Mayor of Chicago within thirty days following the passage of this Act." On motion of Mr. Barr, the President of the University was requested to advise the sponsors of the Medical Park that the Board does not approve the method of appointment of its representative and to request that the University shall be named as a separate entity, and that any representative of the University on the Medical Park Authority shall be appointed by the Board of Trustees of the University.
