Illinois approves 60 million building plan by Kerner
The Illinois Senate Executive Committee approved a 60 million building program endorsed by Governor Otto Kerner after limiting project costs. The plan funds university, prison, and state school structures via the Illinois Building Authority, with bonds repaid from regular appropriations over about 20 years. Some senators criticized ongoing bond financing and allocation to universities, while supporters argued higher taxes or revenues are needed to fund the projects.
