Good morning, Ximing,
I have had a couple conversations with Provost Cangellaris about this recommendation. We will include it for consideration as part of our broader discussion of the campus budget. As you know, budget reform has implications for space and utilities use, so this is a timely submission.
Thank you,
Matthew
