OLD BUSINESS
1. Auction Fundraiser: The success of the auction was discussed. A motion was made by Kathy and seconded by Lenny to buy four $25 Visa Gift Cards for the auctioneer and his 3 helpers in appreciation for the work and time they donated to the auction.
2. Shopwithscrip.com: Kes plans to attend the next meeting to explain the program to the board.
BUILDING PLANS:
1. Pressure Tank: Sara advised that the pressure tank has been replaced for a cost of $638.81. There was a question about sharing the cost of replacing the pressure tank with the Post Office since we provide water to them. The deed will be checked to see if there are any provisions regarding this issue.
NEW BUSINESS
1. Copier Bid: A bid was reviewed from Oshkosh Office Systems for a Ricoh MP 301SPF digital Copier. A discussion was held regarding buying versus leasing a copier. A motion was made by Jean and seconded by Kathy to buy the new copier and a service contract for it. Sara will ask about the warranty when she orders the copier.
TOPICS FROM THE FLOOR
Sara advised that it is budget time again. She will have the 2015 budget ready for next month. We also need to plan on attending municipal board meetings to request help from the municipalities. Sara also thanked the board for all their help and support with the Auction Fundraiser
Motion by Kate and seconded by Jes to adjourn the meeting at 7:04 P.M.
