Buildings & Grounds Committee Minutes

April 14, 2015

Present:   Dennis Thomas, Rusty Smith, and Barb Sauter

     The Christian Education Ministry team referred the need for a sign for the daycare to the Buildings and Grounds committee.  Dennis called the City Community Development Department to ensure city requirements were met.  The city employee suggested a temporary A-Frame sign that can be placed out in the morning and taken in at the end of the day.  A hinged plywood sign no more than 16 square feet in size is anticipated, but who will build it has not been determined.

     The B&G moderator has been called on to come to the church on short notice to deal with issues such as a pilot light needing to be relit, a water tank leaking, and no water in the kitchen.  In addition, the B&G committee has been asked to take on responsibility for the two rental properties

     Rusty Smith volunteered to be called for emergency fixes at the church.  He will request a church key from Linda.  There is still a significant need for more volunteers to assist with B&G issues.  Meeting attendance is not mandatory if someone is able and willing to assist with maintenance issues but prefers not to attend meetings.

     Storage and excess seating sale/disposal issues were discussed, with no decisions made.

     The meeting was closed in prayer.
