ADDITIONS TO CONTRACTS FOR PLUMBING AND ELECTRICAL WORK IN WOMEN'S RESIDENCE HALL (28) On February 27, 1947 (Minutes, page 270), the Board of Trustees awarded contracts to Frank S. Bellis for plumbing and to Ernest Freeman and Company for electrical work on the new Women's Residence Hall. Certain changes are now recommended which will result in a net addition of $4,321.72 to the plumbing contract and $2,032 to the electrical contract. The additions to the electrical contract cover changes recommended by the Housing Division. Also, the additions to the plumbing contract cover certain changes recommended by the Housing Division, and other changes are for the purpose of reducing maintenance costs. T h e estimates have been checked by the consulting architects, Naess and Murphy, who have approved them. Funds are available in the State appropriation for Residence Halls for these changes. The Director of the Physical Plant and the Comptroller recommend that the contract with Frank S. Bellis be increased in the amount of $4,321.72 and that the contract with Ernest Freeman and Company be increased in the amount of $2,032.00. I concur. On motion of Mrs. Holt, these additions to contract were authorized as recommended. INSPECTION OF BOARD MINUTES (29) The Secretary reports that he has received requests for permission to inspect the minutes of the Board prior to their publication in the biennial reports required by law. On motion of Mr. Davis, the President of the University was authorized to permit such inspection, on written request, with purpose disclosed in each case, when the motive seems proper and not contrary to the public interest. It is not the intent of the Board to permit such inspection before the minutes have been printed and approved by the Board. Doubtful cases should be referred to the Board for its decision.
