Employment of Architect/Engineer, Remodeling, Veterinary Medicine Building, Urbana

(24) The president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the firm of Hansen Lind Meyer, Inc., Chicago, be employed for the following professional architectural and engineering services for the remodeling of the Veterinary Medicine Building: to provide a program analysis and building systems audit at a fee based on the firm's hourly rate schedule, not to exceed $25,000 plus reimbursable expenses estimated to be $1,500; and the schematic design of the project at a lump-sum fee of $68,250 plus reimbursable expenses estimated to be $3,000. Remodeling of this building is included in the University's Fiscal Year 1986 capital budget request. This facility requires renovation in order to provide space for the Department of Geology and the Institute for Environmental Studies. It is now estimated that the total project will cost $5 million. Funds are available in the FY 1985 State appropriated funds budget of the Operation and Maintenance Division at the Urbana campus. It is further recommended, if the project is authorized by the General Assembly, that the Capital Development Board be requested, subject to the release of funds by the governor, to employ the firm for the professional services required through the completion of the project.

On motion of Mr. Stone, these recommendations were approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Day, Dr. Donoghue, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Howard, Mr. Logan, Mr. Madden, Mrs. Shepherd, Mr. Stone; no, none; absent, Governor Thompson.
