Election Committee

Roof Funding

  • We now have a fairly close ‘apples to apples’ comparison of the roofing quotes.

Motion: to select builder, roof work to be done, and authorize signing of contract

  • Will most likely need to raise another $40,000 to cover the delta in roof cost between what insurance paid and the highest bid.
    • Should be starting a ‘Raise The Roof’ campaign in the next month since it may be some time in September before 2 of the builders might be able to start on the roof, and August for the 3rd builder.
    • Fundraising is working diligently to cover the delta from potential sponsors, but still welcomes members to donate money to our ‘Raise The Roof’ campaign (need to coordinate with the Treasurer to see how he would like that fundraising campaign titled on donation slips)

Taxes Clarification

  • The rental of equipment is considered taxable in KS (i.e. the screens in screenprinting may need to be covered in taxes)
  • May need to update tax policy from last month
