REPORT O F T H E EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING O F JANUARY 1 1 , 1 9 5 1

The Secretary presented for the Executive Committee the following record of its transactions at a meeting held in Urbana, Illinois, on January n , 1951.

A meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois was held at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, January 11, 1951, in Room 317 of the Illini Union Building, Urbana, Illinois. Mr. Kenney E. Williamson, Chairman, and Messrs. Park Livingston and Walter W. McLaughlin, members of the Executive Committee, were present; also attending the meeting were President George D. Stoddard, Comptroller Lloyd Morey, and Mr. A. J. Janata, Secretary of the Board. Business Presented by the President of the University The Executive Committee considered the following matters presented by President Stoddard. Easement Through Robert Allerton Farms for Construction of Pipe Line (1) The Texas Illinois Natural Gas Pipeline Company has requested an easement through the Allerton farms for the construction of a pipe line. The pipe line will extend across University property for a distance of 149^2 rods, and the Company has offered to pay $3 per rod for the easement or a total of $448.50. Permission is also requested for authority to construct a second pipe line approximately parallel to the first for which an additional $3 per rod will be paid. It is reported that the rate offered to the University is the same that has been accepted by the majority of property owners in Piatt County. It is understood that rates in the southern counties have been as low as $1 to $2 a rod. In some counties north of Piatt County, the rate has been as high as $5 a rod. The field affected by the easement is relatively low in agricultural value because of flooding several times each year and only a partial crop has been harvested. The Dean of the College of Agriculture and the Comptroller recommend that this easement be approved. I concur and recommend that the following resolution be adopted: Be It Resolved, That the Comptroller and the Secretary of the Board are hereby authorized and directed on behalf of the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, a public corporation, to execute a right-of-way and easement contract and to deliver the same to the Texas Illinois Natural Gas Pipeline Company, a corporation, conveying and quitclaiming to said company, its successors and assigns, for and in consideration of the sum of four hundred forty-eight dollars and fifty cents ($448.50) a right-of-way and easement to construct, reconstruct, operate, maintain, repair, alter, replace, move and remove a pipe line
