REVISED PLANS, BUDGET AND SCHEDULE
CHICAGO CIRCLE PAVILION
(1) The president of the University, with the concurrence of appropriate ad-
ministrative officers, recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the revised
plans, budget, and schedule presented to the Buildings and Grounds Committee
on November 14, 1979.
The revised plans for the Pavilion eliminate portions of the programmed ad-
ministrative space, special equipment, nonessential circulation and mechanical
areas; standardize structural concrete components ; and simplify roof structure
which reduces the building volume. Further, it is recommended that the Pavilion
project budget be increased from $7.5 million to $8.3 million and that the com-
pletion date be revised from January 1981 to July 1981.
Funds for the increase in the project budget are available from the University
of Illinois Auxiliary Facilities System Revenue Bond, Series N Construction Fund
Investment Income.
On motion of Mr. Neal, this recommendation was confirmed.

Committee on November 14, 1979, was brauqht forward at a called meet-
