Minutes:

CH mtg August 18, 2009

In attendance: Katie, Emily, Malcolm, Kelly, Malcolm, Alex

We bantered ideas back and forth about possible 2009-2010 improvements
Major: Resurfacing the patio (Katie wasn't sure if this was grounds or ch,
she will check)
Solar paneling on ch and garages to provide power to the ch but very
expensive and we wouldn't recoup the costs for years to come

minor: attic fan installed in kitchen for cooling and ventilation
dehumidifier, we agreed that there can be a musty smell in the media, kids,
game rooms. very inexpensive to get a stand alone dehumidifier approx.
75-100 dollars
ceiling fan in kids room, to make it more energy efficient. Malcolm pointed
out that it needed to be far away from the loft to avoid injury
We decided that these minor improvements should be added to the budget and
the major ones for another day/season.

We talked about whether the computer could stay in the media room but it was
agreed that even though we like the computer away, with kids using the
computer it'd be better to have it out in the open so we can see what
they're viewing.

Patio improvements: Again, we weren't sure if this falls under ch or
grounds, perhaps a joint venture would be good.
we felt that the furniture made the patio crowded and it is seldomly used.
We went outside and thought that seating without tables would be more
inviting, such as a row of rocking chairs like they have cracker barrel
restaurants.
