INTRODUCTION TO EASTCLIFF

In 1922 Mr. Edward Brooks, a local lumber baron, commissioned C.H. Johnston, Sr., an architect of record for the University, to create a home for his family. The resulting two-story, twenty-room manor reflects the Brooks’ understated taste and love of assorted wood. Walnut, ash, cherry, cypress, knotty pine, and bleached oak were utilized in the construction and detailing; the unusually thick and wide, white clapboard siding was custom cut, and the home could be warmed with the nine fireplaces burning wood from the Brooks’ lumberyards. Because of its perch atop the eastern cliffs of the Mississippi, the Brooks family began calling the home Eastcliff — a name still used to this day.

In 1958 the Brooks family graciously donated their majestic home to the University. Today, surrounded by a white, wooden fence, Eastcliff occupies approximately two acres and serves as a living laboratory for the University. Faculty and students in design and architecture assist with renovations and improvements for the home.

Artwork within the residence is on loan from University of Minnesota collections including the Frederick R. , the Bell Museum of Natural History, the Goldstein Gallery, and the Tweed Museum of Art. In the gardens, sculpture from the Weisman Art Museum collection further accentuates the estate.

The Eastcliff Technical Advisory Committee (ETAC), which has main oversight responsibility for the house, and the Friends of Eastcliff Committee (FOE), which raises funds to provide enhancements, have continued their excellent guardianship of this valuable property, making it an outstanding venue for University events and a residence for the president and his family. These two committees have continued to ensure that Eastcliff presents an image worthy of the University’s rich history and tradition. Through their efforts, Eastcliff was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in June 2000 as one of the finest examples of 1920’s Colonial Revival architecture.

Since 1961, seven University of Minnesota presidents and their families have resided in Eastcliff. In addition to housing our current president, Robert H. Bruininks, and his wife, Dr. Susan Hagstrum, Eastcliff serves as a special gathering place for official University functions. Its gracious structure, dramatic river bluff views, and manicured grounds extend a warm welcome to friends of the University — students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors, community leaders and public officials, as well as dignitaries from around the world. A carriage house, summerhouse, pool, and terraces enrich the estate and extend the experience of visitors beyond the main residence. This past year 8,891 people visited Eastcliff. Staff members from the Office of the President ensure the on-going management of the property as well as planning and coordinating more than 160 events each year.

Eastcliff was donated to the University and is only partially supported by University funds. While the University covers costs for maintenance of Eastcliff, such as painting and other basic repair projects, private gifts support upkeep beyond basic maintenance as well as some renovations. This is the same process used for other University buildings. Private gifts help

6 fund special undertakings and ensure that Eastcliff continues to be a gracious venue for University meetings and receptions. The FOE Committee directs fund raising for all projects not funded by the University, and ETAC recommends capital improvements, maintenance, and repairs. Both committees oversee the maintenance and renovation projects and report directly to the Board of Regents. This document focuses on projects completed during the past fiscal year as well as projects to be completed in the future. It also includes a report on the oversight and management of the house and official Eastcliff activity during the past year.

CAPITAL AND MAINTENANCE PROJECTS COMPLETED FY 2007-2008

The following capital projects were completed at Eastcliff:

• Modification and replacement of the second floor heating and cooling systems, including controls; the cost of this project was $205,000.

The following maintenance projects were completed at Eastcliff:

• Carriage house abatement and re-insulation of the heating pipes was completed at a total cost of $19,500.

• A well was dug to provide water for irrigation at a total cost of $24,000, which will provide significant cost savings in the years to come.

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BOARD OF REGENTS

Board of Regents November 14, 2008

Agenda Item: Supplemental 2009 State Capital Request

review review/action action discussion

Presenters: President Robert H. Bruininks Vice President / CFO Richard Pfutzenreuter Vice President Kathleen O’Brien

Purpose:

policy background/context oversight strategic positioning

The State of Minnesota requires all state agencies, local governments, and the University of Minnesota to submit their capital requests for consideration by the Governor and the legislature in preparation for the 2009 legislative session.

Outline of Key Points/Policy Issues:

The University of Minnesota’s 2009 supplemental state capital request contains two requests.

• Higher Education Preservation and Replacement (HEAPR) - $35,000,000

During the 2008 legislative session the University of Minnesota submitted a capital budget request for $100,000,000 in state capital appropriations to support critical asset preservation needs. The University received only $35,000,000.

This request focuses on critical projects meeting the following parameters which are consistent with the purpose of HEAPR projects. These parameters include:

o Failure of a facility or system, or expected failure in less than one year.

o Receipt of a citation from the code official or an order from an outside regulator.

o Immediate action necessary to avoid legal and/or financial liability.

o Energy-efficiency improvement projects

Priority will be given to projects that can proceed immediately into construction.

• Bell Museum of Natural History - $39,500,000

30 During the 2008 legislative session the University requested funds to construct a new Bell Museum of Natural History on the St. Paul Campus. This project was approved by both the House and the Senate but was vetoed by the Governor.

This request is for funds to construct a new Bell Museum of Natural History on the St. Paul campus. The museum functions as the State’s official natural history center charged with surveying and maintaining specimens and research, and serves as a living research museum for University faculty. The museum attracts thousands of visitors to campus each year.

The University of Minnesota will be responsible for $13,200,000 and the State of Minnesota for $26,300,000.

Background Information:

In May 2008, the Board of Regents last updated the University's Six-Year Capital Improvement Plan for 2009–2014. The Supplemental 2009 State Capital Request is consistent with the priorities outlined in the current capital improvements plan.

President's Recommendation for Action:

The President recommends approval of the University's State Capital Request for the 2009 legislative session.

31

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BOARD OF REGENTS

Board of Regents November 14, 2008

Agenda Item: Resolution on UMore Park: Concept Master Plan, Governance Structure, and Legacy Fund

review review/action action discussion

Presenters: President Robert H. Bruininks General Counsel Mark Rotenberg Vice President Chuck Muscoplat

Purpose:

policy background/context oversight strategic positioning

Outline of Key Points/Policy Issues:

The administration has been working for several months to carry forward the directions of the Board of Regents related to the UMore Park project. Substantial progress has been made in three areas: the Concept Master Plan; a governance structure; and principles for the use of proceeds derived from UMore Park assets. The draft resolution recommended by the President would affirm the direction of the project in these three areas.

I. The Concept Master Plan

The Board of Regents resolution dated December 2006 directed the preparation of a Concept Master Plan for the 5,000-acre UMore Park property in consultation with appropriate local and regional units of government.

The Concept Master Plan that the administration seeks to have the Board of Regents approve was prepared in conjunction with the University’s consultant planner team. It was developed using a systematic approach that included multiple public comment and engagement sessions with citizens and interest groups, and formal and informal presentations and discussions with local jurisdictions over the past 11 months. The process included narrowing concept scenario themes from 30 original ideas to four scenarios that were brought to the Board of Regents and the public in June 2008. Following public comment, the present Concept Master Plan was

33 prepared and refined consistent with the Board of Regents principles adopted in February 2006.

The Concept Master Plan is fundamentally driven by the University’s academic mission, the University’s commitment to environmental stewardship, information on gravel resources on the property, current and future plans of local jurisdictions, and extensive public comment. The Plan strives to exceed the qualities of conventional master planned communities, especially through University programming and collaborations. The Plan for this new, sustainable community integrates environmental, socio-cultural and economic opportunities with a specific focus on innovations in renewable energy, education and lifelong learning, health and wellness, the natural environment, and regional economic development. The Plan seeks to achieve a balance of housing, jobs, amenities, services, and open space, and seamlessly meshes with existing communities in the region.

Importantly, the Plan allows flexibility over the anticipated 25 to 30 years of development and growth. It will accommodate market forces and consumer preferences over time. It also sets the stage for achieving the highest standards for community life and will offer a model for master planned communities that can be replicated elsewhere.

With Board of Regents approval of the Concept Master Plan, the University can move forward with the next required steps of planning that precede development.

II. Governance Structure

The administration and the General Counsel also have undertaken a careful and extensive analysis of possible governance structures for the UMore Park project. This entailed development of a detailed set of criteria to evaluate the possible advantages and disadvantages of different governance structures. The criteria were developed using the Board of Regents principles adopted in February 2006 as a foundation, and involved legal, regulatory, tax, financial, operational, reputational, and other factors. These criteria then were used to evaluate four possible legal structures: a for-profit corporation; a non-profit corporation; a University department; and a single owner limited liability corporation (LLC).

The General Counsel, assisted by outside counsel and the University’s Real Estate Office, also conducted a review of the governance structures used by other public and private universities, and by certain governmental entities, for their real estate development activities.

Based on the foregoing, the administration and the General Counsel recommend creation of a single owner LLC to exercise day-to-day direction, management and supervision of the UMore Park project. A regentally created and owned LLC would have a board appointed by the Regents and such staff as may be necessary to carry out the Concept Master Plan and other mandates of the Board of Regents. It is anticipated that the University would continue to own the UMore Park property pending future decisions by the Board of Regents.

This model provides the greatest combination of attention to goals, organizational flexibility, and rapid decision making capacity, while avoiding diversion of the University’s focus from its core teaching and research mission. Properly structured, this model also reduces tax risks as well as dilution of the University’s unique constitutional authority to exercise control over its property and activities.

34 III. Use of Proceeds from UMore Park Assets

While significant proceeds from the UMore Park Project are not likely in the near future, the President considers it essential to establish clear principles for the use of proceeds, revenues, and income that may derive from UMore Park assets in the future. Under the proposed resolution, the Board requests the necessary work be performed to create a legacy fund within the University to hold such proceeds, revenues, and income. The legacy fund would be reserved for special academic research, education, and public engagement opportunities not otherwise adequately funded by state, federal or tuition revenues. The fund would not be used as a substitute or replacement for otherwise available government or private funds.

Background Information:

The Board of Regents agreed to a goals statement and guiding principles dated February 6, 2006 for the UMore Park project. Subsequently, by resolution dated December 8, 2006 the Board of Regents directed the administration to:

• Maintain the 5,000-acre UMore Park property as an intact whole parcel in a manner that supports the University’s academic mission; • Prepare a concept master plan for the entire parcel; and • Pursue activities to make the land ready for development.

The Board of Regents has received updates from the administration on the following topics:

• November 10, 2005 – Work Session – Realizing the Mission: Financing Strategies for University Assets (Establishing a goal and principles for guiding future development of UMore Park)

• November 9, 2006 – BOR – UMore Park Report

• December 8, 2006 – BOR – Resolution Related to UMore Park – Review/Action

• June 12, 2008 – Work Session – UMore Park: Update & Status

President's Recommendation for Action:

The President recommends approval of the resolution.

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BOARD OF REGENTS

Board of Regents Meeting Date

Agenda Item: Resolution to Allow Alcoholic Beverage Sales at Limited Locations on Campus

review review/action action discussion

Presenters: Vice President/Chief of Staff Kathryn Brown

Purpose:

policy background/context oversight strategic positioning

This matter is before the Board to authorize the sale of alcoholic beverages at limited locations on campus in conjunction with specific events.

Outline of Key Points/Policy Issues:

Alcoholic beverage sales are prohibited on campus except at in conjunction with events held at Northrop. The Board approved sales at Northrop in 1999, and the University obtained a license for those sales from the state of Minnesota

Since 1999 the legislature has passed legislation authorizing the University to apply for licenses to sell alcoholic beverages at the new football stadium and up to seven other locations on campus. The application for those licenses is subject to Board of Regents approval.

As set forth in the attached resolution, the administration is seeking approval to allow applications for licenses to sell alcoholic beverages at four locations and to permit the President or delegate to allow sale of alcoholic beverages by licensed caterers in conjunction with events on campus such as weddings, receptions and similar activities.

All sales would be in conjunction with specific events and at a restaurant at the Arboretum, accomplished by trained servers and done in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The specific locations are the following:

1. TCF Bank Stadium in premium seating areas (e.g. suites, club rooms, loge boxes) and special event rooms;

2. The Clubroom and suites;

3. The Mariucci Arena Clubroom and suites;

4. The University of Minnesota Arboretum.38

Background Information:

The Board of Regents has a policy regarding alcoholic beverages on campus that comprehensively regulates alcoholic beverages on campus including their use, sale and promotion and marketing. Regarding sale, the alcoholic beverages on campus policy provides:

The sale of alcoholic beverages on University property is prohibited, except when authorized by license or state law and approved by the Board of Regents.

In November 1999, the Board approved an application for a license for sale of alcoholic beverages at Northrop Auditorium in conjunction with events at the auditorium. This license was obtained, and the sale of alcohol has occurred at Northrop events without significant incident.

When the legislature authorized the new stadium for the University it also authorized the Board of Regents to apply for a license to sell alcoholic beverages at the new stadium, and in 2006 the legislature passed legislation authorizing sale at Northrop Auditorium, the new football stadium, and seven other locations on the University campus. The legislation recognizes that no application for sale by the University will take place on campus without the approval of the Board of Regents. All sales on campus must be in accordance with licenses and applicable law.

President's Recommendation for Action:

The President recommends that the Board pass the attached resolution.
