Buildings Committee Meeting Minutes
Date: Sept 11th, 2018
Attendance - Thomas, Corey, Taften, Julia in attendance
Old Business
We need to vote on the two best options for Washing Machine replacement:
Option A: Maytag with 5-year warranty
Unanimous vote - and cost w/in $2k approved range from 8/28 Board Mtg
Option B: SpeedQueen with 3-year warranty
Update 9/18/18 Maytag machine delivered. It is very low. Woody has gotten a bid for all other work but not the washing machine risers. I have asked him again if it is something he can make happen. In the mean time, would we like a base under that machine? We can do up to 10 inches.

We’ve reached out to, and are pending updates from, these vendors:
Intercom upgrades (third bid, TBD) as well as repairs (above)
