BOARD OF TRUSTEES

[October 9

Agreement, Construction M a n a g e r , Beckman Institute, U r b a n a (17) On December 10, 1985, an agreement was executed between the Board of Trustees and Turner Construction Company, Chicago, for programming, review, conceptual budgeting, and scheduling for the period identified as Part One (December 16, 1985, through March 31, 1986) of the preconstruction phase of the Beckman Institute at Urbana. On April 10, 1986, the board approved an amendment to the agreement to include professional services required during Part Two of the preconstruction phase (through the receipt of bids). Bids for the excavation and site work are to be received in October 1986. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that Turner Construction Company be employed through the completion of the construction of the project on the following basis: (1) for staff costs and fringe expenses for employees assigned to or working on the project: the total cost will be on an hourly or monthly basis and is not to exceed $959,800; (2) to cover general office expense, nonreimbursable staff costs, overhead, and profit: the fixed fee is $595,000; and (3) for support equipment, facilities, and materials: reimbursable expenses not to exceed $400,000. The professional services provided by Turner, as construction manager, replace those coordinating services normally provided by a general contractor. In addition, Turner will provide bimonthly updates of the construction schedule (critical path method) as well as certain contract administration services normally provided by the owner. Funds for this project are being provided from private gift funds through the University of Illinois Foundation and from funds appropriated by the State of Illinois.

Utility Easement, Illinois Bell, Beckman Institute, Urbana (18) The construction of the Beckman Institute at Urbana will require the relocation of certain Illinois Bell telephone service lines presently located beneath Romine Street.

Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends the adoption of the following resolution authorizing the easement.
