BOARD OF T R U S T E E S

[April 20

T h e services consist of janitorial services, including cleaning, floor maintenance, window washing, and pest and rodent control. This program has been under way for approximately eight months and has been satisfactory. The University has the option to extend the contract, subject to the concurrence of the contractor, for four additional one-year periods upon the same terms and conditions, provided that notice of the renewal is given 120 days prior to the end of the agreement. The total amount of the contract may be adjusted by change order by an amount equal to any adjustment in wages paid by the contractor to its employees should a wage increase take effect during the term of the contract if the University agrees to such change order. Under this provision, the contractor may seek such change only if the contractor raises wages pursuant to a new area collective labor agreement. The University also has the option to add or delete work by change order should the need arise. T h e adjustments to add or delete work will be based on unit prices (hourly wage rates) submitted by the contractor in its original bid proposal. The president of the University, with the concurrence of appropriate administrative officers, recommends continuing the contract, subject to the availability of funds, with Admiral Maintenance Service Company for FY 1980. Funds have been included in the appropriation bill of the General Assembly to meet the ordinary and contingent expenses of the University for FY 1980, and will be included for subsequent years •— should it be desirable to continue the contract for additional one-year periods. Amendment to Grant Agreement, Airport Development A i d Program, U r b a n a (17) On February 21, 1979, the board approved a resolution to authorize acceptance and execution of a "first amendment" to the "Grant Agreement for the Fiscal Years 1978 and 1979 Airport Development Aid Program," 1 administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Aeronautics, and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The amendment provided for additional funds from the FAA and state of Illinois of $295,544, based on estimates available at that time, for completion of runway overlay construction and land acquisition. 3 Final costs (beyond the original $1,000,000 grant) have now been determined to be $259,911, or $35,633 less than the earlier estimate. Project funds unexpended at the completion of a project are returned to the granting agency for discretionary use. Approval of the following resolution, as a substitute for the resolution authorized in February, would allow the Division of Aeronautics and the FAA to retain the $35,633 for reallocation to the University of Illinois for a future project grant. Therefore, the chancellor at Urbana-Champaign, with the concurrence of appropriate administrative officers, has recommended that the Board of Trustees adopt the following resolution as a substitute for that approval in February. I concur. Resolution Authorizing Acceptance and Execution of First Amendment to Grant Agreement Between the United States and the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana, Illinois Whereas, the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration, pursuant to request from The Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, Champaign1 The Board of Trustees approved the grant agreement, which provided for funds from the FAA2 and state of Illinois in the amount of $1,000,000, on May 24, 1978. The improvement program is limited to the objective indicated. It bears no relationship to the consultant's recommendations in the Airport Master Plan.
