Whereas, the Student Assembly Infrastructure Fund Commission has received three applications for the 2024 Fall semester.

Whereas, the $8,000 proposed allocation to Dilmun Hill Student Farm will fund the construction of an outdoor learning area on the Cornell Ithaca campus.

Whereas, the Pi Delta Psi Multicultural Greek & Fraternal Council Renovation project is proposed to be tabled indefinitely due to an eligibility concern.

Whereas, the decision for the Crosswalks on University Avenue project is proposed to be postponed till the second hearing of the 2024-2025 funding cycle to collect more information about alternative funding sources, such as the Ithaca-Tompkins County Transportation Council.

Be it therefore resolved, $8,000 be transferred from the Infrastructure Fund Disbursement Account to Dilmun Hill Student Farm for the construction of an outdoor learning area.

Be it further resolved, the Dilmun Hill Student Farm shall submit a report to the SAIFC no later than 6 months following the transfer of funds on how the allocated fund has been used, the expected time of project completion, and the latest person of contact. The report shall be provided to the SAIFC Chair at the time, or the President of the Student Assembly should such office be vacant.

Be it finally resolved, the resolution shall take effect upon approval of the Dean of Students.
