MIT has thus far certified about S6 million under the 1 12 Programl, McNeely said, noting that that figure may become higher as MIT reevaluates its needs. M IT generally contributes to projects of this nature, Milne said, "to the extent that it fig- ures that some of the buildings constructed may ultimately be used by MIT for academic purposes." M cNeely added that the Neighborhood Plan is essentially a compromise between earlier proposals calling either for all- housing redevelopment of Ken- dall Square or for industrial de- velopmerint which would give jobs to the many unemployed blue collar workers in Cam- bridge. The latter proposal, called the Task Force plan, was backed by the liberal faction of the City Council and opposed by tile independents who clainmed the city would lose too much in potential tax returns froni the area. Tile Managers Plan, a modi- fication of the Neighborhood Plan, was proposed recently as a further comn promise. Although the Neighborhood Plan was finally chosen, one liberal Councilman was quoted as saying that there might not be enough votes to permit zoning changes that the plan requires. classified advertlsing
