  1. Campus Recreation Water Conservation Funding Agreement

    Associated Project(s): 
    Campus Rec Water Conservation Incentives
    Student Sustainability Committee (SSC)

    Water conservation initiatives have generally taken a back seat to energy conservation at the University of Illinois. Campus Recreation has proposed a comprehensive upgrade of restroom facilities in all three of their buildings, with the potential of reducing water consumption by almost 6.5 million gallons annually. This work would be highly visible to students and in a fellow student-fee supported unit. Thus, the Student Sustainability Committee is in favor of proving upto $30,000 in incentives at the rate of $0.30 per $1.00 spent.

  2. Bike Parking Funding Agreement

    Associated Project(s): 
    FY09 SSC Bike Parking Upgrades [ARCHIVED]
    Student Sustainability Committee (SSC)
    FY12 SSC Bike Parking Upgrades [ARCHIVED]

    The goal of this project is to fund installation of bicycle parking facilities at the Undergraduate Library, the Ag. Sciences Engineering Building and Freer Hall. Cycling is a sustainable form of transportation, highly used by the student body, and inadequately supported on campus. Thus the students sustainability committee is in favor of funding the full requested amount of $10,600.
