Old Business - Kevin asked about the repair of the electrical box that we discovered at the last meeting at the building walk around. It was repaired.
New Business - We reviewed the Trustees Bylaws. Further discussion will be at the September meeting. We had questions about Section D & G about Quorums.
We also discussed the need for a Building Expansion Feasibility Study. It was decided that at the present time we do not see a need to pursue expansion. We need to make sure that we are making the best use of our existing space.
