Common House minutes: 2011-07-30
Minutes:
CH meeting 7/30/11Present: Katie, MaryAnn, Julie, Jim, Heather
Update on teen activity in CH/ CH security: Heather spoke with the young ladies involved, unclear whether they had actually talked to Corbin, unclear about whether they had the code. Guests should only be staying in the guest room. If you are going to deviate from that norm then you need to email out to the community.
Another incident happened yesterday. Some of the teenagers are starting to try and use the CH as a make out spot - we feel that it would be a good idea to keep the guest room door locked at all times. Encourage people to say something if they see something questionable. Would be a good idea to put a sign up on the bulletin board with Ozone House's information. A policy email would be good as well as a policy reminder at a GO meeting. Jim will arrange to do that.
Update on carpet: Rachel is working on this. Are getting quotes from both GCO outlet and Lowe's. Rod mentioned at the GO meeting that he did not like the idea of putting wood floor in the game room - but he did not want to attend the CH meeting and was not really feeling like fighting it. Some question about lightness or darkness of the wood floor. Type of wood is still being researched - the least expensive we can get. Will not decide on what color carpeting until after we decide on where to get it from. If people care about this issue, they will need to attend a CH meeting or get in touch with CH about it - it won't come to a GO meeting.
Maintenance update: The hot tub door is fixed.
Door codes: They are in effect and have been changed. The new code is 4626. Don't leave it on pieces of paper for other people to see, etc. Always make sure the double doors' security rods are engaged.
Crappy chairs in kid's room: Thanks Katie for getting rid of one! She will try and get rid of the other one soon.
Art work: The art work is up! Yay Heather! Would be good to send out a note to the community telling who the artist is and some info on him. Plan is to have those be the default on the wall and then once in a while put something up on that wall. Moved the yearly collages around the CH. And there is a new collage for 2010 that is across from the kid's room.
DR tables: Ted is committed to building two of them. Is not taking fall work hours to do it since he has some summer ones to use up still.
Work day: Becky is thinking we might not have a lot of jobs for the fall work days - since the carpet in the CH will be all new and won't need to be steam cleaned. Will use some labor for putting in the new wood floor in the GR though.
Expansion tank in CH pantry - it sounds like it is a go from Buildings. When it happens - it very well could take up much more space in the pantry and mean that we will need to move the pot rack out of there. Becky might not be in town when it happens.
