Employment of Master Plan Consultant, Chicago

(17) The president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends the employment of Johnson, Johnson, and Roy, Inc., of Ann Arbor, Michigan, as the Chicago campus master planning consultant. Due to the complexity of the study, the consultant will be employed initially for two phases: the first is for the project initiation; the next phase is inventory and analysis. This work should be completed within six to eight weeks. The final phase, completion of the study, is expected to be finished in another twelve months. A recommendation for employment of the consultant for this last phase will be presented to the board in March or April. The firm's fee for the first two phases will be on a fixed-fee basis of $32,400, plus an estimated $10,000 in reimbursable expenses. Funds for this project are available from the Fiscal Year 1988 Institutional Funds operating budget of the chancellor's office at Chicago.

On motion of Mr. Wolff, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Forsyth, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Howard, Mr. Logan, Miss Smith, Mr. Wolff; no, none; absent, Mrs. Shepherd, Governor Thompson. (Mr. Hahn asked to be recorded as not voting.) (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Evenson, Mr. Wylie; no, none.)
