ROTUNDA RESTORATION CONTRACTS:

A list of contracts on P. W. A. Docket Va. 1312-F, Restoration of Rotunda,
ranging from $100.00 to $1,000.00 was presented to the Board. All of these contracts
have been approved for award by the Regional Director of P. W. A. in Atlanta.

Heretofore it has been the understanding that on all contracts involving
amounts under $1,000.00 no formal resolution of award by The Board of Visitors was
necessary. Instructions have just been received, however, from the Regional Director
that this rule applies only to contracts involving amounts less than $100.00. It is
necessary, therefore, that a formal resolution of award be adopted with reference
to all of the contracts upon which prices range from $100.00 to $1,000.00 heretofore
approved by the Regional Director and which are included upon the list referred to.
It was thereupon resolved that award be and is hereby made to each of the contractors
whose names appear upon said list and whose bids in the amounts set opposite their
names respectively were the best and lowest bids received in each case for furnishing
the material described on the work to be done as shown under the heading
"Description" upon said list and a copy of said list is ordered to be spread as a
part of the minutes of this meeting.

And it was further RESOLVED that any and all action heretofore taken by the
University of Virginia, its officers, or agents with reference to any one or more of
said Contracts be and is hereby approved, ratified and confirmed, and Frank E. Hartman


318

Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds of the University of Virginia, is hereby directed,
authorized and empowered to execute any and all said contracts as enumerated upon said
list in the name and on behalf of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia,
and the Secretary is hereby authorized to affix the seal of the University and attest the
same.
