Regents propose tax hike to curb maintenance backlog
Regents call for a tax increase to fund ongoing maintenance and operation costs for future privately funded university buildings. Chancellor Robert Hemenway notes a need to broker a deal with the Legislature and suggests donors may be asked to contribute to upkeep. The 2004 report linked aging facilities and funding gaps to a backlog nearing 800 million by 2014, with 80 percent of buildings over 20 years old. The plan also requires reporting on new building impact and shifts in maintenance funding criteria.
