APPROPRIATION FOR CONSTRUCTION OF LOCUST STREET SANITARY SEWER AND LIFT STATION (9) The Urbana and Champaign Sanitary District has requested the University of Illinois to share in the cost of construction of a new Locust Street (Champaign) sanitary sewer, including a lift station. This sewer will replace the present sewer extending from an existing manhole on the south side of Armory Avenue north to a new manhole approximately 45 feet north of Green Street. The lift station will be constructed on the south side of Armory Avenue to lift the sewage at that point to the new sewer. Tbe total cost of the project is estimated to be $112,100 and the University is asked to contribute 16.9/746 per cent of the cost, or approximately $19,031.73. The University has been contributing its proportionate share of the cost of plant improvements made by the Urbana and Champaign Sanitary District and has annually paid its proportionate share of the cost of operating the local sewage disposal plant. The amount requested for the construction of the new Locust Street sewer is based on the 1960-61 factor applied in calculating the University's share of operation and maintenance cost of the District's plant. The Locust Street sanitary sewer serves all University property south of Armory Avenue and west of Fourth Street, including tbe new Fine and Applied Arts Building and the Law Building, and an adequate and reliable sanitary sewer outlet for this portion of the campus is of importance to the University. Accordingly, the Director of the Physical Plant and the Vice-President and Comptroller recommend authorization of an agreement with the District providing for the University's share of the cost. I concur and recommend that the Comptroller and the Secretary of the Board be authorized to execute such an agreement with the Urbana and Champaign Sanitary District, and that an appropriation of $19,032 be made from the General Reserve for this purpose.

On motion of Mr. Johnston, this agreement was authorized, and the requested appropriation was made by the following vole: Aye, Mr. Clement, Mr. Dilliard, Mr. Harewood, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Johnston, Mr, Pogue, Mr. Swain, Mrs. Watkins, Mr. Wilkins, Mr. Williamson; no, none; absent, Mr. Kerner.
