The Hughes-Dillard building has served as the headquarters for the Baylor Alumni Association since 1978.

  "It's the perfect combination to really cause quite a bit of illness in the community. We in Texas and in the central Texas area have been fortunate. We haven't been hit quite as hard as some of the other states but we are still seeing especially in our asthmatic population and what we call our 鈥榖ronchiolitic鈥?population."

鈥淲e鈥檙e disappointed in the judge鈥檚 decision to dissolve the (restraining order) and we are weighing our options and will proceed in a way that we feel is appropriate for our client and the mission he is on to save the (alumni center),鈥?said Waco attorney John Mabry, one of Dorr鈥檚 five lawyers.

Dorr originally sought the restraining order, signed by Smith on July 2, to delay the demolition until the alumni association鈥檚 full membership could vote Sept. 7 on whether to turn the building over to Baylor.

鈥淥nce you tear down the building, it鈥檚 gone,鈥?Mabry said. 鈥淵ou can鈥檛 unspill the milk.鈥?

  Relinquishing the Hughes-Dillard building to Baylor was among a number of changes the university and BAA leaders agreed upon in an effort to mend what has become a contentious relationship between the entities beginning in the early 2000s.

−
Cox and members of BAA鈥檚 executive committee on May 30 voted for the association鈥檚 staff to vacate the building in June and move into administrative offices in Baylor鈥檚 Clifton Robinson tower.
+
−
The executive committee also approved a proposed transition agreement that would turn over most alumni outreach efforts to Baylor except for publication of the Baylor Line magazine, which the BAA has printed since 1948.
+
−
The agreement also would spur the creation of a independent Baylor Line Corp. to continue the magazine, an alumni advisory board to include some current BAA leaders, <a href=http://www.cicviseu.net/page.php?sale=Tory-Burch-Makeup-Bag>Tory Burch Makeup Bag</a>  and a non-voting alumni seat on Baylor鈥檚 board of regents.

−
  The BAA鈥檚 full membership is set to vote whether to approve the agreement on Sept. 7, a day before Baylor plans to terminate its existing licensing agreement that allows the BAA to perform alumni duties.
+

  鈥淲e鈥檙e certainly pleased with the court鈥檚 actions and we鈥檙e looking forward to things moving forward,鈥?said J.D. Pauerstein, a San Antonio attorney who represented the BAA, Cox and Coker.

−
1994 agreement
+
−
Dorr鈥檚 suit charged that the demolition plans for the Hughes-Dillard building violated a <a href=http://www.cicviseu.net/page.php?sale=Red-Tory-Burch-Flats>Red Tory Burch Flats</a>  1994 agreement about the use of the building which states that Baylor can only reclaim the facility if it has a need for the space, no alternative location exists, and it pledges to provide a building of comparable size, condition, quality of location and 鈥╟onstruction.
+
−
  Cox said in a July 10 federal hearing that Baylor has announced intentions to build a new facility to accommodate the Baylor Line staff in the 鈥╢uture.
+
−
Baylor regents last week announced a $17 million fundraising campaign for a new alumni events center that would be built next to the new stadium and include meeting rooms for special events. But it was unclear whether the building would include office space that would serve the Baylor Line employees.
+
−
  Fogleman did not know when the Hughes-Dillard demolition would commence or whether the university would incur additional costs because of the delay. She did not know what date the demolition originally was supposed to begin this month.

Brian Nicholson, associate vice president of facilities, planning and construction for Baylor, previously said the university could have incurred as much as $300,000 in overtime costs if the project was delayed until the Sept. 7 vote.
