alternate number 1) for restoration work at Memorial Stadium, Urbana-Cham-
paign campus. Bids were received on April 6, 1979. (A schedule of the bids re-
ceived has been filed with the secretary for record.)
The base bid provides for concrete restoration, leveling, and sealing the re.-
maining exposed concrete surfaces of the stands between the ramp towers. Alternate
1 provides for similar work to the horseshoe area plus modifications for paraplegic
seating.
The project has been approved by the Illinois Board of Higher Education as
a noninstructional facility.
Funds are available from the proceeds of the sale of University of Illinois
Auxiliary Facilities System Revenue Bonds, Series N.
Earlier, on January 17, 1979, bids were also received for restoration work at
Memorial Stadium. The bids, which included work for concrete restoration,
sealing, electrical and mechanical upgrading, tuckpointing, painting of structural
steel and masonry work, exceeded the funds available. The Athletic Association
and the Oflice for Capital Programs, with the concurrence of campus administrative
officers, recommmded that the bids be rejected and that the documents be revised
to include only the work considered to be the most critical. Pursuant to the pro-
visions of Article 11, Section 4(k) (2), of the General Rules Concerning University
Organization and Procedure, the bids were rejected and the president now reports
their rejection.
In 1978 the Board of Trustees authorized the appropriation of Athletic Associ-
ation funds for concrete restoration and sealing of the east and west balconies, and
this work was completed in the summer of that year.
Easement to Illinois Bell Telephone Company
(21) The president of the University, with the concurrence of appropriate admin-
istrative officers, recommends adoption of the following resolution granting to the
Illinois Bell Telephone Company a permanent easement dong the west and
south sides of the University property at 717-719 South Wright Street, Cham-
paign, for construction of underground telephone lines. The granting of this ease-
ment will benefit the University by removing the existing telephone service from
the area on which the addition to the Illini Union Bookstore is to be constructed
and providing new service to the building addition.
On June 21, 1978, the board %granted a similar easement on the University
property immediately to the north. The easement proposed will not interfere with
the present use of this property or with any planned projects. The University will
reserve the right to request the removal and relocation of such services at the
expense of the company.
