It will come back into the normal process once funds are raised. Gibson was asked to explain to the committee how projects are initiated and developed. He explained there is no single way, but instead a variety of ways in which this can occur. A department head or dean can push for certain ideas and needs and then develop a proposed project that meets those needs. If central administration decides it is worthwhile, it can become a project.
Projects can go on hold for lack of funding or other reasons or can be stretched or phased out.
UI submits a Capital Request list to the Board each year which is approved in September. Projects are placed on the list by administration for future FYs in the time frame they will be needed. Events can happen to move projects up or down on the list, e.g., PBAB construction moved up the project list so that PH could be vacated for remodeling which would in turn allow SH to be vacated for renovation. Other projects had to be moved down the list to accommodate this shift. The UI has looked at a remodeling project for CC which has been on the list for some time.
