Iowa State Facilities Planning and Management takes $1.5 million cut - Devyn Leeson, Iowa State Daily

Iowa State Facilities Planning and Management (FPM) will have to slow down work on a list of campus repair projects in response to budget cuts. Continued reductions in state appropriations, in addition to salary increases for faculty and staff, created an initial need to cut FPM’s budget for services by $500,000. “The allocation from the university was reduced by about half a million dollars,” said Paul Fuligni, associate vice president for facilities at Facilities Planning and Management. “That money would normally go towards smaller building repair projects such as repairs for classrooms, lighting systems, heating and cooling systems or sidewalks around campus.” http://www.iowastatedaily.com/news/iowa-state-facilities-planning-and-management-takes-million-cut/article_bf4c00d8-a4d2-11e8-a611-ef5868b00508.html
