Over spring break contractors began work on the first floor of Menard Hall to renovate the student services area including the eight adjacent classrooms. A construction barrier is installed to isolate the construction area from the rest of the building. Anyone on campus will continue to have access through A Lincoln Commons to Menard Hall on the first floor. If entering Menard Hall from the east side of the building, the southern most entrance only allows entry to the second floor via the stairs by the vending machines. The second entrance on the east side of Menard Hall still allows both first and second floor access. We anticipate this barrier to be in place for the next 10 to 12 months. Signs will be posted alerting people to the construction area. Please use caution and follow all signs, caution tape, cones, barricades and barriers in this area. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Tim Ervin at 217-786-9605 or tim.ervin@llcc.edu.

Wondering where artwork that decorated the hallways of first floor of Menard Hall has gone? It has been taken down temporarily for remodeling of the student services area. The art pieces are safely stored and will once again grace the hallways after the renovation.
LLCC Facilities Services will be coordinating inspections of all building fire sprinkler systems this week. While disruptions will be kept to a minimum, it is necessary to briefly activate the fire alarm systems during these tests.

The contractor will provide traffic control measures and directional signage during this time. Please use caution as you drive, park and walk in these areas.

In the next two weeks, contractors will begin work in Millennium Center and the lower level of Sangamon Hall to create space for LLCC Student Services to move in advance of the larger renovation in Menard Hall in the coming months. Work in Millennium Center will be on the first and second floors in various locations. Work in the lower level of Sangamon Hall will be in the open area behind the LLCC Center for Academic Success desk (S0130). We have asked the contractor to perform disruptive activities outside each building when possible, but there will likely be minor disruptions over the course of the coming months. Please use caution and follow all signs and barriers in and around these work sites. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Tim Ervin at 217-786-9605 or at tim.ervin@llcc.edu.
LLCC Facilities Services is currently coordinating the removal of numerous dead or dying trees on the main campus. The majority of these are mature ash trees which have been damaged by the Emerald Ash Borer, an invasive beetle which has killed hundreds of millions of ash trees in North America.
Facilities Services will be planting new, healthy trees this fall to replace all of the trees that must be removed.
