Old Business
The church tower job was reviewed in detail, all was done and the bills paid, see the statement. The remaining balance was voted to be returned to the congregation.
Visitor Center – The Stan Greer proposal for millwork was approved, initial value of $75K with the understanding hidden issues may develop with a historic structure. The parking lot was discussed with several options all dependent on the city dealing with the central old septic tank. An adobe wall with gate appears to be a good solution. A quarterly report was submitted.*
City Pool – no effective progress, no report.
New Business
Liability insurance checked and approved for renewal with Dunn Ins.
Four Deuces Saloon donated $150.00, their prize in the Christmas Light Parade.
City wants financial documents and reports – request declined, it is not their business.
