ADDITION T O CONTRACT FOR ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES O N M E N ' S RESIDENCE HAULS (9) T h e Director of the Physical Plant and the Vice-President and Comptroller recommend a change in the contract with Berger-Kelley and Associates, Champaign, who have been employed by the University as architects for the next residence halls units constructed at Urbana-Champaign, to include architectural services for designing a snack bar and mail service unit to serve both the present halls in this area and the new units. T h e fee for this additional service will be 5.25 per cent of the construction contracts, which allows credit for work previously done by Mr. Ambrose M. Richardson. T h e estimated cost of the additional architectural services is $8,800. T h e Housing Division has funds in its operating reserves which can be advanced for this purpose. Ultimately the Housing Division would be reimbursed from the proceeds of the bond issue to finance the construction of the new units. I recommend ( a ) approval of this addition to the contract, (b) authorization of the assignment of funds, and (c) authorization of the Comptroller to execute the change. O n m o t i o n of M r .
