construction plan, and an assessment roll in the Circuit Court of Champaign County in March. T h e district estimates the cost of the project at $2.1 million and asserts that the University's share will be approximately $600,000. T h e benefit to the University and other landowners has not been calculated, and it is not known whether the district will attempt to assess University-owned land or request a n agreement with the University for payments to be made in lieu of any assessment. It is likely there will be opposition to the proposed plan by other landowners in t h e district. T h e university counsel requests that he be given authorization to take such steps as are necessary or appropriate, including the employment of special counsel, to protect the interests of the University in connection with the legal aspects of these proceedings.
