Property
Hard to believe it is time to look forward to another
budget year already. The property committee has kept busy doing the
usual maintenance responsibilities for the year. We owe many thanks to
many people too numerous to name.
2009 however, will bring new challenges with new preventative
maintenance procedures to be established for the new building, as well
as the old. We need to put a plan in effect to keep everything running
as smoothly as possible for the future, (anyone who has ideas or
suggestions is welcome at our meetings).
We now have to look at maintaining our building, furnaces, air
conditioners, lawn mower (or lawn care), and other important aspects to
continue to serve the congregation to the best of our ability. Our
budget for the 2009 year must be increased.
Some items needing to be addressed:
1. Lawn Care - (Volunteer or Contract)
2. Snow Plowing
3. Custodial Care (Increase Required)
4. Increases for preventative maintenance on furnaces, air conditioners,
& security system.
5. Yearly window cleaning
6. Carpet cleaning (Not done in 2+ years)
We also need a long range plan to replace the old furnace. The last
estimate was over $38,000. Our current budget is bare bones. We must
increase this for future years to assure ourselves of a safe and orderly
place to worship.
