KENTUCKY STATE UNIVERSITY BOARD OF REGENTS

ACTION ITEM:

Approval of Bluegrass Inn Contract.

FACTS:

The University partnered with this vendor to supply additional supplemental student housing for Fall 2021. The contract approval is retroactive to August 21, 2021, since it was not initially anticipated that this vendor would be utilized beyond mid-September. Bluegrass Inn was used for temporary housing for students displaced due to mold and other issues that had to be addressed in various residence hall rooms. As the semester progressed, rooms were needed significantly longer than anticipated due to additional rooms with mold issues and delays in the delivery of new furniture needed for rooms that had been cleaned.

BUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS:

Bluegrass Inn

• Additional Supplemental Student Housing for Fall 2021 Semester: 10 rooms
• $74.90/night single or double occupancy (base rate with occupancy tax)
• August 21, 2021 – November 19, 2021
• ➤ Total Expenditure: $67,260.00

RECOMMENDATION:

Acting President Stamps recommends that the Board of Regents approve the Bluegrass Inn Contract.

MOTION:

Approve the Bluegrass Inn Contract.
