CHICAGO STATE UNIV-BD MEETINGS House SponsorsRep. Monique D. Davis 1/13/2009HouseSession Sine Die 110 ILCS 660/5-25 Amends the Chicago State University Law. Provides that meetings of the Board of Trustees must be held at least once each month instead of once each quarter. Effective immediately.Fiscal Note (Illinois Board of Higher Education) The University incurs direct and indirect costs with each board meeting. According to the University, direct costs per meeting average $1,005. These costs include postage, printing, commodities, and catering. Increasing the number of meetings from four to twelve would increase annual direct costs from approximately $4,020 to approximately $12,060. In addition to the fixed direct costs, the University incurs indirect costs when preparing for Board meetings. These include time expended in solicitation and preparation of inputs, reports, and documents by Deans, Directors, Vice Presidents, and the President, as well as their respective staffs. Increasing the number of board meetings from four to twelve would increase the workload of affected employees by an indeterminate number of hours and could result in additional personal services costs. 1/10/2007HouseFiled with the Clerk by Rep.
