UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS SETTLEMENT OF CONDEMNATION SUIT FOR PROPERTY AT 1103'/» WEST SPRINGFIELD AVENUE, URBAN A

1091

(4) On June 19, 1963, the Board of Trustees authorized condemnation proceedings for the acquisition of the property at 1103y£ West Springfield Avenue, Urbana, and a condemnation suit was subsequently filed in the Circuit Court of Champaign County (Case No. 63-L-324). Immediately prior to the selection of the jury, the owners indicated a willingness to accept $17,500 for the property, the price previously approved by the Committee on Buildings and Grounds for acquisition by negotiation, and to deliver possession to the University on or before April 1, 1964, subject to the right to remove the house prior to that date. Since the house will have to be removed prior to construction, this provision in the purchase contract will be to the University's advantage. The Director of the Physical Plant, the Vice-President and Comptroller, and the Legal Counsel recommend acceptance of the settlement offer and the assignment of $17,500 from funds received as reimbursement for indirect costs on Coordinated Science Laboratory contracts (Indirect Costs General). I concur. O n motion of M r . Johnston, this recommendation and the assignment of funds were approved by the following vote: Aye, M r . Clement, Mr. Dilliard, M r . H u g h e s , M r . Johnston, Mr. Page, M r . Pogue, Mr. Swain, M r s . W a t k i n s , M r . Williamson; no, none; absent, Mr. Jones, Mr. K e r n e r .
