AMENDMENT OF ORIGINAL AGREEMENT AND NEW AGREEMENT WITH FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION FOR ACQUISITION OF LAND (33) The Board of Trustees on February 19, 1964, approved the acceptance of a grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (then "Agency") in the amount of $92,443 for the purchase of land and airport improvements. The State Department of Aeronautics agreed to pay the matching costs of these improvements. The Federal Aviation Administration and the State Department of Aeronautics request for administrative reasons that the grant be amended to delete reference to the acquisition of certain land areas and to reduce the amount of the grant by $22,500. These land areas and the related cost of $22,500 are incorporated in a new grant offered by Federal Aviation Administration in the amount of $70,694. The new grant offered will reimburse the University for costs already incurred in acquiring certain designated land. The State Department of Aeronautics has agreed to pay the matching costs of the land to the extent of $58,000. An Approach Lighting System will be erected at no cost to the University on the land acquired. The Director of the Institute of Aviation and the Vice-President and Comptroller recommend acceptance of the amendment to the original grant and acceptance of the new grant. I concur and recommend adoption of the following two resolutions.
