In addition, the sum of $320,000 was placed in escrow until it will be needed by the University on or about January 1, 1971.

The project is to be completed by May 1, 1972. A motion to approve the bids as detailed above was passed

Further detail is filed supplement to the minutes at page 20,709-B.

At a meeting of the Legislative Building Commission on December 19,1969, and upon recommendation of Commissioner of Administration Rolland Hatfield, approval was given for an allotment of $434,785 from the State Building Reserve provided to the Commissioner of Administration and the State Building Commission by the 1969 Legislature.

The project is to be completed 455 consecutive calendar days from the date of notice to proceed.

Mr. Champion indicated that, notwithstanding the deductions, it would be possible under the foregoing bids to finish the base- ment of the building. It would not be possible to fixrit up as originally planned.

Regent Malkerson inquired about the reason for the differential in the architect's fees on the two buildings. Mr. Champion said that different scales applied to different types of building. In general, because of services performed by University personnel in connection with construction work, the University was charged a fee 1% below the established sliding scale. He said he was studying this subject and hoped to avoid future esca- lation of the architect's fee with increase in ultimate costs.

A motion to approve the bids as detailed above was passed unanimously.

Vice President Champion reported that bids on the Crookston dormitory project had come in well over available sources of funding. He had decided to reduce the buildirig to accommodate 215 beds. This could be done while keeping the maximum federal subsidy and the state appropriation. He recommended that the Committee approve the following resolution and recommend its adoption by the Board of Regents:

"At the meeting of September 12, 1969, the Board authorized the appropriate administrative officers to enter into negotiations for private financing in the a proximate amount of $750,000 to be the subject of a debt service subsixy grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Develo ment and in the approximate additional amount of $350,000 not coveref by the debt service subsidy grant to finance construction of a new dormitory at the University of Minnesota Technical College, Crookston. After further study, it has been determined that the authorized additional amount of financing not covered by the debt service subsidy grant will not be sufficient although final construction costs have not yet been determined.

"Voted, on the recommendations of the Vice Presidents and the Presi- dent, that the amount of financing not covered by the debt service sub-

sidy grant authorized for the new dormitory shall be increased to an amount between $400,000 and $475,000 as determined by the appropriate administrative officers on the basis of the cost of construction of the dormitory and the a propriate administrative officers are authorized to prepare for a public o&ring,,of both the bonds covered by the subsidy grant and those not so covered.

A motion to approve the resolution as proposed was passed unanimously.

Vice President Champion reported for information a request from the residents of Commonwealth Terrace that they be d- lowed to manage the residence complex. They expected to be able to reduce costs by substituting their own work for some of the present services. Mr. Tierney said that after a draft proposal had been worked out a survey of the residents would be made to determine their support. The proposal would then be reviewed by bond counsel to check consistency with the federal bonding requirement. A three to five year agreement was proposed subject to earlier termination in appropriate circumstances.

Mr. Frederick esented the proposed 1971 Legislative Build- ing Requests for $. e University of Minnesota Technical College, Waseca. He pointed out that the requests were listed according to priority. Discussion followed of the priority of enclosed cor- ridors to various buildings and associated circulation problems. On Mr. Champion's recommendation the Committee voted unanimously to approve and recommend the following resolution to the Board:

"Voted on the recommendation of the Vice President for Planning and Operations and the President to authorize the appropriate administrative officers to submit the 1971 Building Request for the Technical College, Waseca, to the Legislative Building Commission with the understandin that a longer range building projection for this facility will be developel after the College becomes operational."

Detail is led supplement to the minutes at page 20,710-B. if Mr. ueg presented the proposed 1971 Legislative Building

Requests for the Southern Experiment Station. Detail is filed supplement to the minutes at page 20,711-B. Regent Rauenhorst inquired whether the proposed Dairy Beef Raising Facility would be conventional or experimental.

The Committee voted unanimously to approve and recommend for favorable Board action the requests as reported.

Mr. Hueg introduced the proposed Legislative Building Re- quest for the Agricultural Experiment Station - Rosemount. De- tail is filed supplement to the minutes at page 20,712-B. He indicated that the proposal was submitted for review and discussion only. For reasons outlined in the supporting documentation the proposal could not and did not represent a final University deci- sion either on its Rosemount request for the 1971-73 biennium or for the lgnger term development of Rosemount. The possi-

.- 236

bility of development of an airport facility in the qrea was dis- cussed. c .

Mr. Tierney reported on the Earle Brown Farm mortgage. He recommended a mortgage foreclosure moratorium of one year and release of approximately eight acres from the mortgage on payment of release fees. The Committee unanimously approved his recommendation as reported.

The Committee adjourned at 9:15 a.m.
