Video Description:
Callahan House Advisory Board – February 2024
Read along below:
Unknown Speaker 0:00
Yeah. Perfect. Everyone is here. Yes, this is approval of the agenda. We work so hard. So anybody have comments?
Speaker 1 0:18
Have a request? Yes. What do you all think about number five, discuss items from packet updates. Seems to be irrelevant for our business. It isn’t.
Speaker 2 0:33
listed. There have been a couple of times on it’s not been but typically is something that’s listed. So we just
Unknown Speaker 0:40
discussed. Number five. Oh, just
Speaker 1 0:44
doesn’t have I mean, when when we have packet attachments, yeah. They’re gone and
Unknown Speaker 0:54
discussed under items from staff.
Speaker 3 0:55
Your Yeah, it seems to us when we’re approving the agenda, we would discuss any packet updates.
Unknown Speaker 1:04
that have to be there.
Unknown Speaker 1:05
We just removed that.
Speaker 3 1:13
You Yeah, right. I make a motion that we remove item number five and just shift items from the agenda forward? Because it’s redundant.
Speaker 4 1:26
Thank you. The second. Almost in favor? Aye. Aye. A post. That’s true. Or
Speaker 5 1:35
suggestions related to that. I had been doing roll calls slash approval of agenda agenda. And then I got separated out again. Yeah. So I don’t know what the better where he is. It just seems like approval agenda is just a minor little thing. But
Speaker 2 1:53
yeah, well, I separated it out because it was kind of getting missed. To like officially approve the agenda. Okay. So that was why I separated out because they’re so stuck doing that. But if we saw
Unknown Speaker 2:05
big deal. Well, there’s two separate things.
Speaker 5 2:08
Yes. Yeah. It started that way. Yeah.
Speaker 4 2:13
Okay. Okay. All right. Approval of previous month’s minutes. Anybody have any comment?
Unknown Speaker 2:31
look too great. To do I didn’t do exactly
Speaker 4 2:45
go out with a motion to approve. All those in favor? Anyone opposed? Okay, minutes are approved. And I want to thank you. You’re welcome.
Unknown Speaker 3:08
Candace for doing
Unknown Speaker 3:14
what was before we can go Monday?
Speaker 4 3:16
Yeah. Yeah. Nice.
Unknown Speaker 3:26
She’s telling us about
Unknown Speaker 3:38
I wanted to bring you
Unknown Speaker 3:41
maybe next month.
Speaker 4 3:43
Okay. But we can be heard, we don’t have any public so we can scratch that. We don’t have item number five anymore. We’ll go right directly to old business, the digitized scrapbook. We come in.
Speaker 2 3:55
The first scrapbook is digitized. Wow. It’s so then the next step is to go through the process of making it accessible and getting it posted and, and all that. So we’re gonna go through the full process, the original scrap and when I say original, it’s actually it’s the one that was kind of redone, but it’s the Early Years cowhand so not the one from 1938. It’s a small early, early years one. So it’s been all scanned, it was actually a really easy process. It gets like a one to two person job so we can kind of think about setting up shifts for that. Once we go through the whole process of this one and just make sure that it is doable for all of them moving forward and I think that should
Speaker 6 4:44
take a regular sized one now to do it. I wasn’t getting Oh, you did a small
Speaker 2 4:50
is a thinner one. Yeah. Also speaking of size, it was able to be 12 by 12. So that’s nice and nothing had to be cut off. So yeah, that’s it. Exciting. But that was kind of easy part to be honest. Script,
Unknown Speaker 5:04
the history of it. That’s,
Unknown Speaker 5:08
it’s mentioned on the website.
Speaker 7 5:11
Okay. That’s where you don’t have to download it. Okay.
Unknown Speaker 5:17
Link to it, or
Speaker 7 5:19
does it just it’s there actually exist already. You just look at pages. Okay. And we also want, you can also download it.
Speaker 3 5:28
Okay. Oh, nice. Yeah. Thank you. And I’m sorry that I had wanted to come back to my schedule. No, I
Speaker 2 5:36
think it actually worked out well, for me just to do the first one. So I covered the process
Speaker 3 5:40
came about anybody can have sat on what, which is the way to work. Extra opinions.
Speaker 2 5:49
So but that really was the easy part. I think the hardest part will be making ADA accessible. website, go through that. And then we’ll come to
Speaker 3 5:58
the rest. So I’m very busy. Right.
Speaker 5 6:01
So are you going to so schedule or?
Speaker 2 6:05
Yeah, I think, well, my plan was to go through the process of getting this one completely done is all the way through. Yeah, so we know what that looks like. And then pass that on to you all to do the rest. So maybe, so just skip to the Yeah, I think once I get figured out this across the rest of the process for this one, and then we can set up a schedule to have you all do the scanning. So
Unknown Speaker 6:34
no, started the processes? Yes.
Unknown Speaker 6:37
It looks good. And it’s actually worse
Unknown Speaker 6:46
than suggestion for being able to just pull it up and look at it.
Unknown Speaker 6:48
Yeah, it’s easier to
Unknown Speaker 6:53
do that. You’re gonna do the books,
Speaker 3 6:55
are we going to consider submitting these evaluations to be stored in the library?
Unknown Speaker 7:03
Archives archives? Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 7:06
Yeah, kind of
Speaker 2 7:08
initiated that we were interested in that with Elizabeth, this new director of history there. So that’s certainly something we can continue to look into and see what’s appropriate for them to can there be a place for us to keep here?
Unknown Speaker 7:22
Do we know what we already have archives?
Speaker 2 7:25
I don’t I know there are items there. But I know.
Unknown Speaker 7:33
The story here. Yeah.
Speaker 1 7:34
There are a lot of photos that are in archives. There
Unknown Speaker 7:42
are copies of those
Speaker 1 7:48
created ongoing. Content? No, it’s rather well, there are some negatives and archives. And then for photos, that there aren’t not negatives, they are electronically scanned. And those are now part of that, as well. So like a picture of mainstream where the Golden Rule store was that scanned in
Unknown Speaker 8:20
electronically. But
Speaker 5 8:23
there’s a question, I guess, just are those things that Eric archived regarding calendar handles? Or are those things that the county on board gave to them? Archive?
Speaker 1 8:40
I think it’s a mixture of both. Because there, yes, there are things that’s clear that came from someone from Callahan report, and others that are common that they could have been pulled from Times called loved times. That’s what is their
Speaker 2 9:03
source material for the scrapbooks? The actual originals and maybe in archives, and some of the things in their copies. Early years
Speaker 1 9:13
list of all the US military first open house, yeah, journalism, scrapbook photos, museum articles, but most Yeah.
Speaker 3 9:30
Okay, so. But do we have to start with some, you know, applying to submit to archive these items into the
Speaker 2 9:43
I’m not sure about the process. But Elizabeth was the one that you know, connected us to, or whatnot. So, certainly aware of the project.
Speaker 1 9:51
You may want to just double check on them, but from the processes I understand it to be from what Eric explained it to me is that we would submit a On a form that says what the items are and that then gets put before the museum board and they determine along with the help of the character What if any of that contents already in the archives and then what is remaining if anything that they think is important enough to the it should be archived
Unknown Speaker 10:30
charts if they
Unknown Speaker 10:30
make that determination yeah
Speaker 4 10:37
interesting health Okay. Any other questions? Okay, we will move on to the boundary day program would you like to report on it
Unknown Speaker 10:53
really enjoyed it. Boring dressed up, which was odd. So I appreciate the content and afterward
Speaker 5 11:11
I did I did put that out. Yeah. You did a very nice job. I forgot to do just a little side note about that. The ramifications of it. If Deborah, you can Yeah, castaway. Debbie Stafford, her mom was Carolyn Stafford. Here. Yes, exactly. And the reason they’re having a memorial here is because Lloyd Flanders who was instrumental in setting it up. Yeah. Was that PE of that morning. And, and, and Jeff grew up here, and her mom was a PTO member, and so on and so on. And it was like, the light bulb went off in her head when this happened. So
Unknown Speaker 12:13
we have their wedding reception here.
Unknown Speaker 12:16
She member of the PEOs.
Unknown Speaker 12:21
General, I don’t deputy chapter, whatever it was, really?
Unknown Speaker 12:26
Was it nonminor? No, no, no resident?
Speaker 5 12:29
Oh, Carolyn was but I didn’t know that Debbie was
Speaker 4 12:35
the only common I won’t, I won’t be on Monday night and ask for what you guys think the programs want to hear from them. They loved it. But they said that a lot of times it couldn’t hear. I don’t know if it was from microphones or what visit.
Speaker 5 12:53
requests that maybe more pictures are included. If they’re interested in seeing more picture.
Speaker 1 13:01
Ideas interested to hear what pictures they’re looking for. Because I the pictures that were included, were pretty comprehensive. I definitely could add more
Unknown Speaker 13:12
hearing feedback. Yeah,
Speaker 1 13:14
but definitely I really tried to keep to that 30 minute. Right. And I was like, a capture, though, overall, you know, and
Speaker 3 13:24
I have to compliment the music job and the history of it.
Unknown Speaker 13:28
What she showed me was stuff. It’s all Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 13:31
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So good tacos.
Unknown Speaker 13:36
Okay, um, to the, excuse me the update.
Speaker 3 13:39
Sorry, before we move on, to take some pictures with EDK and some other things that we should I’m sure you’ve got, you’re going to add into to everything as a historian video,
Speaker 1 13:53
if we want to include in the scrapbook, we can
Unknown Speaker 13:59
do something, it’s outreach to the community. That was the
Speaker 1 14:04
No, it just included KMD as a member of their EDK also as a member there already for myself,
Speaker 3 14:11
I think it’s important it is an issue also shows our outreach into the community and it’s another document tion documentation. So I’m sorry to SAP to interrupt the process for
Speaker 2 14:23
this kind of talk because process for updating the scrapbooks going forward do that like on annual basis or just as material was as interesting or throughout the year
Speaker 1 14:37
so answer cramming is ideal is easy. Yeah.
Speaker 2 14:44
And are you are you look ahead of committee for that
Speaker 1 14:49
are well that’s my job story. So if anyone’s interested in helping, I’m all for you. And additionally, extra hands Yeah,
Unknown Speaker 15:00
but things like the tea and
Speaker 2 15:02
rice like that should be well. So I guess I’m just wondering to reach out when you like, what, what works for you for processor? Well, if that we could talk more about it. But yes,
Speaker 1 15:17
there’s a is out work I couldn’t do that just touch base with a mosaic I am planning to do you want to come and participate with the house? Yeah.
Speaker 4 15:31
Okay. Moving on, I can see updated video.
Speaker 2 15:41
So I don’t have anything to review. But I do have an update at least. So hopefully by next month, it’ll be like, actually what’s going to be going out to anybody that wants to? Or anybody we’re going to ask for a quote from. So I went through the process with Pam roading, who orchestrated some of this within the city. And it’s actually going to be fairly simple. Basically, we don’t have to go through a full vetting process. But we do need to get three quotes still from some other potentially interested parties, and basically, we just let them know, here’s, you know, here’s what we want. And just as long as we provide the same information to everybody, it’s a pretty simple process. So
Speaker 3 16:27
we’ll have that. Do we know when that’s going to be released?
Speaker 2 16:30
I think it can be I mean, we can I can do that anytime. As soon as I have time, which now it’s kind of right on the cusp of having that ready to go.
Speaker 3 16:40
I know that we were I was reached out back up to because one of the issues was my daughter, obviously Anna, and her partner, business partner in is they would work considering like working on videos on the interior. So we’re they’re not competing with wedding schedules. Okay. Stuff like that. Yeah. That would be something if they’re going to do it if they’re chosen. I, that’s one of those things that, yeah.
Speaker 2 17:15
Have it ready to be great. Thanks for being and say, yes.
Speaker 3 17:18
So they were asking me when the date was and I said I haven’t heard. Well,
Unknown Speaker 17:24
town. Early March. Early March.
Unknown Speaker 17:26
Thank you. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 17:28
So we talked about that.
Speaker 4 17:31
Okay. Any other questions about that? We’ll move on to the item D club affair. A meeting tomorrow.
Speaker 5 17:40
We do have a meeting scheduled from 11 to one I believe was refresh my memory. Why did we schedule it at 11?
Speaker 3 17:50
Initially, is because I normally have clusters on that day, but we could actually move it forward because clusters was last week.
Speaker 5 17:58
Okay. All right. So how does everyone feel about? Are we doing just the three of us? Well,
Unknown Speaker 18:07
I know. Because I canceled.
Speaker 5 18:11
Okay. So it includes all of us. All of us. They sit around? Yeah. That’s what I thought. Yeah.
Speaker 4 18:19
I do have to say from 930 to 1030. Okay.
Unknown Speaker 18:22
Okay, so 1030
Unknown Speaker 18:26
I can get here by 1030. Okay.
Unknown Speaker 18:29
Okay. 30 to 30. All right. No, she’s not going to be there. Oh, okay. Okay. Jazz, something I was gonna say. Exactly. I think I think you should hop house. Definitely.
Unknown Speaker 18:49
So we’ll meet tomorrow. Yes.
Speaker 5 18:52
1030 1030. Tomorrow. Yes. And so what I was going to suggest that we all come with in our heads is first of all, clubs or organizations that we’ve thought about. Inviting, that we also come with out of the box, thinking about how you use not just the house, and in August, it should be nice outside. And if the possibility exists that we could use the outside exterior gardens and the carriage house that expands our number of people that we can reach out to as far as clubs are concerned and groups are concerned. It doesn’t have to be a club, so to speak, like the symphony orchestra. I mean, you know, think in terms of what other groups could we include approach. And this is a two fold thing we not only have to find groups of honor participate as our fundraiser are, but then we have to find and get the public here
Speaker 4 20:03
to participate. So
Speaker 5 20:10
we have to do so. So keep that in mind and kind of think outside of the box. About what groups can we have the symphony playing in the gardens? Can we have plein air painters out there painting? Can we have dancing groups? Can we have theatre companies? What can we do?
Speaker 2 20:32
I think we talked about was it August 17th, or something as the date? And the reason I asked is because if it is going to be a larger event with public, you know, wanting to join the well, I guess, does that fall right on the cusp of the brochure, then make that go to the next brochure if the date is August 17?
Unknown Speaker 20:58
Yeah, comes up for some job again, just perfectly two weeks.
Speaker 2 21:01
Okay. So this would be for the next brochure, so we don’t have to have it set for February 20.
Speaker 7 21:08
That would be pretty early. But you could do the same thing in there. Okay.
Speaker 2 21:15
Let’s do that. Just because it might depend on room, right? Because we have other things too. So. Okay, is that? Okay, though, I guess is the question that they asked and the summer brochure that goes on in July, where they say the date would go would be I need it by Friday.
Unknown Speaker 21:49
Just like time, or
Unknown Speaker 21:51
I guess, Tuesday by Tuesday,
Speaker 1 21:53
I’m sure how many weddings are something that are competing? Well, I
Unknown Speaker 21:57
mean, we would just keep that
Unknown Speaker 22:01
on Sunday, but no, not at all.
Speaker 2 22:04
So that is a Saturday. But I mean, we just wouldn’t talk a wedding, if we’re gonna put that date but I think that was the date. I’m not sure.
Speaker 5 22:16
Are you worried that that might be an issue? Do we need to like backup to the 16th a Friday?
Speaker 2 22:23
I think what’s do it on a day that feels like more people would attend. So less Sundays and
Unknown Speaker 22:31
Saturdays more like what like
Speaker 1 22:33
when Saturday? I think a Saturday is the best choice and if they just blocking that with Saturday. I’m not
Unknown Speaker 22:39
gonna get miracles right now. So
Unknown Speaker 22:44
what happens for
Unknown Speaker 22:47
literally recreation?
Unknown Speaker 22:52
Recreation, or seasonal?
Speaker 7 22:55
I mean, three times a year. Oh, winter, spring, summer, fall. winter. Spring is one thing. Okay.
Unknown Speaker 23:04
That’s awesome that we can reach?
Unknown Speaker 23:07
Yeah, it is far reaching. Yeah.
Speaker 6 23:09
So it would be going in the summer but way a lot potentially.
Speaker 2 23:16
Yeah, save the day in the summer one that talks about step through.
Speaker 3 23:22
Timing with school starting and everybody going? I think that would be a great Saturday. I think we Yes, I know, we could lose revenue. But Saturday is the best time and I honestly think it’s a perfect date for the 17th that just falls timing wise really well.
Speaker 2 23:41
This event something that potentially brings in revenue at the event itself or just the potential of we’re hoping
Unknown Speaker 23:50
revenue making,
Speaker 5 23:51
right it’s a revenue generating because they would have to pay for their booth fair tripled their space, whatever. Okay, so we’ll have to also set those price. Yes, yeah. Spending money. Right.
Speaker 2 24:06
Okay, well, yeah, so we can have the dates. Well, typically, it’s a date time. Is just a date of the day. Yeah,
Speaker 1 24:17
I was gonna say for the sake of the date, all you’re doing is take the date, August 17. At the Callahan house Club A. So that more details to come. firm
Speaker 2 24:28
date I think we could potentially gonna save the date in summer brochure and then we’ll have a bigger whereby in the next time,
Speaker 3 24:35
I’d like to move that we choose August 17 as a permanent fit, but not as permanent but as the date for this. This year’s event for the club affair. You’ve already defeated
Speaker 1 24:51
didn’t that’s why it’s in the minutes this why didn’t we or do I know Yeah. Because
Unknown Speaker 25:00
in a minute, so that will be held on.
Speaker 3 25:04
I think I recall that I’ll just take their word off the table
Speaker 8 25:08
if it’s already. Yes, it is. So we don’t need to we
Speaker 3 25:13
I think it’s appropriate because it, it hits everybody’s right. So they’re going out into the fall, it would hit the concerts or anything that people want to promote on their own
Speaker 5 25:28
will be possible to also get a blurb on the city utility.
Unknown Speaker 25:36
City one city line. Yeah,
Unknown Speaker 25:38
I mean, those are monthly, so.
Unknown Speaker 25:44
Yeah. Okay. Well, we can advertise
Speaker 3 25:47
it. And the more people that see it, calendar.
Unknown Speaker 25:52
Okay, any other questions on club if you don’t want to annual report?
Unknown Speaker 25:59
Does anybody have anything to add
Speaker 4 26:00
or track, edit or comment? Waiting on what the final number
Speaker 2 26:10
is finalized if it is approved at all, and it just get answered maturity? Right.
Speaker 1 26:17
I thought that may be a good thing to include in an annual report is identification of officers. Obviously, the chairperson is clear, because that’s person. But for purposes of an annual report, you just identify Okay, here are the board members. And you can even just put it next to the name you can assign. So, Secretary, you know,
Unknown Speaker 26:46
I think it’s simple enough inclusion. It
Speaker 1 26:49
happened in an old take another minute, and you just slip it in. Right? That’s right. You’re behind their lip name. So my last chair Karen Cruz historian can’t shy Secretary Carson. Chairperson, I think it would be appropriate.
Speaker 4 27:11
Anybody else want to comment? We need a motion. Okay. Let’s just carry on. Yes.
Speaker 2 27:28
Last year, or what is the process then for? You know, that this gets submitted to be part of the council’s
Unknown Speaker 27:37
it’s submitted? And then hopefully, at some point
Speaker 2 27:42
you’re presented last year, right? Or somebody didn’t know. But you should be? Well, I think it’s, it’s up to them. It’s up to their packet. Right, exactly. That’s
Speaker 3 28:00
the whole point is to also, this brings attention to our board. And it also promotes us for anybody that’s watching it, that people might want to participate in sport. And then so it’s a dual purpose of why we would want it before we can become more visible and they can ask questions.
Unknown Speaker 28:22
It would be nice if counsel, we
Speaker 3 28:23
can also pose questions to counsel. And they can
Speaker 1 28:27
ask questions. They can ask questions of us.
Unknown Speaker 28:30
Yeah, that’s exactly. Oh, so
Unknown Speaker 28:34
they can ask a question
Speaker 4 28:36
as an interaction. Okay, anything else on the annual report? We’ll move on to house inventory. That is kind of interesting. Yeah, I think. That’s I think that’s interesting.
Speaker 2 28:51
Yeah. Well, thank you all very much for participating in that. I think the idea was to set another date that do we
Speaker 3 29:00
not have one already set the next for next month? Or was that tentative?
Speaker 1 29:05
I don’t think we said we did. I
Speaker 2 29:09
think we talked about setting up at this meeting for to finish. Betsy jump in. We’re also working on some of it last week, the butler’s pantry, the linens and things like that, that they have familiarity with, right. A little more extensive.
Unknown Speaker 29:25
Obviously jumped ahead.
Speaker 2 29:29
Because yeah, I don’t think we’re going to set one today. Okay. Okay. So
Speaker 4 29:40
is there a suggestion for what date works best for you?
Speaker 2 29:45
Wednesdays, we have clubs in the house, so probably not a Wednesday. Listen, if there’s a fifth one standard, but otherwise, I’ll just look at the count. But on a Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, typically more open. I mean, do we want to look as soon as possible or?
Speaker 4 30:14
I think we did just to get it get complete.
Speaker 2 30:21
So next week, we’re out on Monday. They don’t have the clubs. In Tuesday, they have clubs. Yeah. So Tuesday, Wednesday clubs Thursday. Thursday there’s potential Friday’s reopen 22nd or 23rd. Or we can look to the next week. I could do the 22nd. By Railton through each week 96. You mentioned the 22nd 56 Twice a month. That looks I can do that. Yeah. That’s fine. We’ll do that twice. Up until 1010 30. Your your bill before temporary, so yeah, we started snowing start before nine but 830 Oh, I can’t do a three. Oh, no, I gotta. I got physical. Fine. And if that doesn’t work for you send you. Yeah. We appreciate the help. Oh, yeah, certainly. Yeah. Mandatory. So.
Unknown Speaker 31:53
Yeah. Designing network
Unknown Speaker 31:54
26.
Speaker 5 32:02
Thank you. I have a question regarding Ed case. Mom’s
Speaker 1 32:12
found it specifically I asked her I took a picture of the art in the manager’s office. She said it’s a smaller print painting. But and it’s she did this. So sizing that we’re looking for something like this six inch
Unknown Speaker 32:34
skirt. She had an
Speaker 1 32:37
accident on photos back of you know, whatever, the background, if they ever got a picture of it, I had to give
Speaker 2 32:45
them additional storage spaces also, I mean, you know, prior to this and everything, but
Speaker 5 32:53
certainly chancer Christmas stuff at some point.
Speaker 2 32:56
I mean, all the Christmas stuff just got brought out before Christmas. around for it. So that beats
Speaker 3 33:13
at some point, cups, other things were going away. Why would a photo? It’s not a photo. It’s a it’s a picture. TV. Oh, you might not have been being used some ordinances or whatever. Yeah. And we don’t need it. And so it was, would it be an archive item? We can look through the scrap
Unknown Speaker 33:50
I don’t remember ever seeing scrapbooks.
Unknown Speaker 33:58
I’m sorry, you’re asking for
Speaker 3 34:00
parking. When we had the manager’s team. I was discussing with Lesley, where you can use to hang on the wall. Right up above the stairs. Right. So the office. So moving to looking pictures maybe in that area to see if we could find it
Unknown Speaker 34:22
would be worth looking at? I don’t
Speaker 3 34:24
know. Because when I talked to Leslie Boynton, she knew exactly what it was and where it was. But where she’s describing
Speaker 1 34:31
it was is what was there. It was most recently prize to artwork that was moved into that office managers house and
Speaker 1 34:50
maybe I can I’ll check back in with the case.
Speaker 3 34:55
And again, she wants to keep referencing a different different painting but And I said that I said who was donated by and said who he was painted by? And she knows she’s she recalled in her mind. That’s where it was. And she was very, very specific. Yeah. And if you ever met what was like, she’s, she’s really pretty on top of stuff. So let’s EDK the one that donated, it was her mother’s
Speaker 1 35:26
di, D, two, D ID. Yeah. Okay. Well, you did why, and?
Unknown Speaker 35:36
Why? Yeah, that’s why.
Unknown Speaker 35:43
Okay. It’s okay. We wanted to make sure what we’re saying is
Speaker 4 35:51
not adding yet not adding. Up. Okay. Let’s move on to the piano search. I’m interested to hear where we are with this.
Speaker 2 36:01
Well, I don’t Well basically update from the last one that we had seen, which was the comp combine, combine. Yeah,
Unknown Speaker 36:10
combine. That was the number
Speaker 2 36:12
that Yeah, to be avoided. And I want to see is we reached out to Franco Haim, who is our lead piano expert that has helped with the restoration of and and now maintains the Steinway to just get his opinion on the whole thing. And his opinion on that one specifically, which we also kind of shared is that the wood wasn’t really properly maintained, it was a little bit dried out a lot, a bit. And what we really wanted to look for was what has already been restored. So he is in the business of that searching for one for us, is also a tool to look.
Speaker 3 36:53
So that was a concern when I was pointing out the crackling of the varnish, and so yeah, so on that note, is some man has actually been come to me. So. So So I think that’s one of those things that I’m concerned about. The other question is, why is it moving on move Alice’s piano?
Speaker 1 37:21
Oh, my God. No, no, you don’t just happen with Steinway? I know.
Unknown Speaker 37:26
I know. I wouldn’t. I don’t. The
Speaker 3 37:28
question is, do we need another piano? Or do we put Alice’s cannot back that one was I was
Unknown Speaker 37:38
paid for to be more than
Unknown Speaker 37:39
that house Jersey horn and more about
Speaker 1 37:41
that in our events, and clubs, stuff and recitals.
Unknown Speaker 37:46
Upstairs, have we had
Speaker 1 37:50
to when that went was moved. But that’s from my research. That’s the only reason. You know, reason they were like, Okay, we got to move it upstairs. Wow. So
Speaker 5 38:00
they were a pianist that taught lessons here in Longmont and their recitals. Were always upstairs. Yeah,
Unknown Speaker 38:07
that makes sense. Well,
Unknown Speaker 38:10
that’s another resource that we shouldn’t look for.
Unknown Speaker 38:18
Speaking of which, I just,
Speaker 2 38:20
I had a professional
Speaker 3 38:24
pianist that just did a concert for our clusters group. And amazing. To me, that’s another thing that we could reach out for possibly getting people in person usage. That’s a side note. I wasn’t just, I wasn’t sure why it was known for listening. And if we’re looking to replace it for the music room, why wouldn’t they? I just didn’t. I didn’t understand the logic of one’s Thank you. Yeah, I
Speaker 2 39:01
mean, we don’t necessarily need a second piano, they’re not being used that regularly. My thought about it is, you know, the music room should have a musical instrument of some kind. And, in general, look for pieces of furniture and whatnot for the house that are a period appropriate.
Unknown Speaker 39:23
And it could also be something that could be played. If we have someone playing, you know, classical me Yeah,
Speaker 2 39:32
for some things to get used some kind of very regular basis. So
Speaker 3 39:40
like background, yeah. Then it comes down to do we need to pianos or do we consider just putting Alice’s back to music?
Unknown Speaker 39:54
My gut told me that would not be worth it. Yeah, I agree. Just accept Trying to get that moved. All the cars cost
Unknown Speaker 40:04
more cost us more than us getting.
Speaker 7 40:08
Getting that from up there to here would take? I mean, he would I think he just tells me that easier for us to just be patient
Speaker 2 40:22
keep looking. And Fred did feel that we would be able to find something that we’re looking for if we are in any rush rush, we’re not not
Unknown Speaker 40:31
here. So I just was rolling
Speaker 3 40:32
around the whole idea in my head. Okay, if we already have one, I don’t know many places need two pianos. That’s my thought process. Yeah.
Speaker 5 40:47
Or set out that we set out to look for one, it just kind of came.
Speaker 1 40:56
So the biggest thing that we needed to identify as if something that popped up seemed right, was the dimensions which I think we’ve identified, right, the dimensions are two feet deep, six feet wide, and five feet high. So as long as we know that and know the period that we’re looking for, and we know, you know, the quality that we’re looking for, then it’s just a matter of waiting, we’re not going to be just something pops up, and it’s ideal, and perfect that it’s like, right.
Unknown Speaker 41:27
And that’s really nice to have read
Unknown Speaker 41:30
about Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 41:33
Yeah, he can save us a lot
Unknown Speaker 41:35
of trouble. You’re right.
Unknown Speaker 41:36
There’s no handout,
Speaker 5 41:38
pretty much you send me Fred’s information surface
Speaker 3 41:45
will still break himself as is retired, and he will look after our piano. But Matt is someone who has Oh, but
Speaker 2 41:51
also somebody information. That’s. Yeah, but yeah, I mean, it is worth you know, bringing that up Marine, like, No, we don’t necessarily need to be ours that that is to have items in the house that are very appropriate. type music in the music room. But and you know, there are a lot of cans out there are a lot of for free, we may have trouble finding someone who’s interested in taking this one out and paying to out. Yeah, so that’s a consideration also is if we’re going to pay to move a restored one in and we can’t find somebody to seek this one. We might be paying to move out to be terminated if anybody wants it as a donation. So
Speaker 1 42:36
consideration, something to think about, but for just moving it out, if we get to that point, you might want to check called one 800 got junk? And take everything. So I don’t know what they would charge to do that. Yeah, they say are very careful.
Speaker 3 42:54
So they would not be well, that’s really good. Conversation. It’s just, I came to mind. And I’m thinking
Unknown Speaker 43:05
every piece here, you
Speaker 3 43:06
know, I had been looking at the picture and saying, wouldn’t it be nice if we had one that looks like this when we have the one upstairs? So it was just a thought process? And I appreciate the input on it. Again? Um, yeah.
Speaker 2 43:21
Essentially the cost of moving this one out and the the new one in moving to pianos? I don’t know if I’ve kind of been missing classes moving a Steinway down, or?
Speaker 1 43:34
Yeah, I doubt it. Yeah. Regardless, you’re moving that piano out. It
Speaker 3 43:41
wouldn’t hurt to ask the person that takes care of it is because he’s the one that’s refurbished it and taking care of it, and knows all about it. We’re kind of novices in this amassment it wouldn’t hurt to ask.
Speaker 4 43:57
Thinking is if it’s moved, just cares, because someone can do recitals. Yes. So for the space, if we’re trying to get more people for the club of fear to do these things. Well, it’s like, yeah, it kind of needs to be there. Yeah. Okay.
Speaker 3 44:13
Okay. I’m in agreement, though. I again, so it was just a table, right. Stop talking about Yeah. Sorry.
Speaker 4 44:23
Yeah. Yeah. Okay, we’re moving on. I didn’t H Callinan house membership.
Speaker 2 44:32
So there’s a short blurb at the back of the packet here, just kind of outlining an initial
Unknown Speaker 44:40
framework or
Unknown Speaker 44:42
potentially want to take this so yeah,
Unknown Speaker 44:49
it just, it’s just something okay.
Speaker 3 44:54
It’s my mindset that this will be something that we would like to have in place prior to the to the a love affair love affair so we have it in place. So Can people come in? This is an additional thing that they can sign up for. Yeah.
Speaker 1 45:13
So this is an initial framework. So is this something that we should take home and digest and think about some thoughts on to the sun? Yeah, bring it back to next month’s make sure I can train it was
Speaker 2 45:31
in the packet so that hopefully it was generating some ideas to bring today. But if we need more time to,
Speaker 1 45:38
is there a reason why you should avoid using friends, because
Speaker 2 45:42
the friends program already exists? And we’re decided that we don’t want to set it up as a Friends of program because that board controls finances? I
Speaker 3 45:53
think it does require additional board. I think the implication is there. So I think it’s it’s good if we do
Unknown Speaker 46:00
you call it whatever you want. But if
Speaker 3 46:03
we could work separately that way,
Speaker 7 46:09
a money thing. That’s what it is. Senior Center, that’s how it’s set up with doing the city currently, we see that term used just something something different.
Speaker 3 46:23
It’s a different type of program. So let’s get our authorises like to check out every word for friends. Or supporters. Yeah, right. Exactly.
Speaker 7 46:40
Yesterday for envision that AI online. Yeah, type something in Michigan and vision parameters for recreation. And because we’ve filtered, filtered, filtered and trained to actually make decisions. And then once you throw it in there, and it will spit something out. That’s more clever, more eloquent. And then you just make little tweaks to that
Unknown Speaker 47:08
worked really well. Oh.
Speaker 3 47:15
Interesting. Yeah, I’ve been using that. My husband surprised me with Valentine’s Day present of going to Ireland for two weeks. And I’m using that
Unknown Speaker 47:26
it’s something else.
Speaker 1 47:30
So what am I asking everyone would be willing to do is take a look out and to sourcing options as far as grains, take a look and see what grant applications are asking for. Specifically, for example, for history, Colorado, they wanted to know what community contribution the clubs were, were using the house provided. And there are going to be some specific highlights that organizations who are granting funding are looking to support. Let’s see if we can encompass as many of those as possible. Closer, I’m talking about this club membership.
Unknown Speaker 48:22
Well, B clubs. This is like, Oh,
Speaker 1 48:29
I’m sorry, this is I’m thinking club selection criteria. So I’m a little ahead of myself. Sorry. But I was thinking yeah. Well, that’s different
Speaker 3 48:38
time series are Pacific specific people that you want to. So you’re saying you’ve confused the line item?
Speaker 1 48:45
Yes. I’m actually ahead of us because I was tying into club selection criteria, which is not this this is this is the supporters.
Unknown Speaker 48:56
A program we’re going to give you. complete
Speaker 5 48:58
sense, which we’re saying that applications are looking for a partnership
Unknown Speaker 49:05
that is still valid.
Unknown Speaker 49:06
It’s still you
Speaker 3 49:08
have integration with regards to historic Colorado. Are you wanting us to take on somebody else like I think
Unknown Speaker 49:15
everyone should take? I would
Unknown Speaker 49:17
SCFD really? Absolutely. And quickly do this.
Unknown Speaker 49:22
Look into something? And
Speaker 3 49:26
is there any we want to just all work on this and come back next month with ideas?
Unknown Speaker 49:36
We’re talking about the club selection
Unknown Speaker 49:38
criteria. The Callahan we’re looking
Speaker 3 49:39
at the over we can find a couple of things but yes, we we moved it back to the Kelly membership program. Okay.
Unknown Speaker 49:50
Organizations,
Speaker 3 49:53
potentials on how we should frame this so we get more grant opportunities, but then
Speaker 6 49:58
we have about the organization So what is that? What specifically are we getting from other
Speaker 1 50:03
organization while there may be companies looking to help support okay
Speaker 6 50:08
so looking for potential partners friends whatever in terms of
Speaker 3 50:15
companies organizations and what they’re looking for and more they’re willing
Speaker 4 50:26
because that is something you can put on a grant future grant the membership right all right, so we’re gonna take this home and work on Work
Unknown Speaker 50:38
in Progress work in progress. Okay,
Unknown Speaker 50:41
that’s the end of old business and we’re moving into October sorry d report yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah
Speaker 2 51:04
yeah, it went really well. We had so there were 36 tickets sold we had 35 people in attendance. So one person joined by everybody who’s from one to four this past Sunday and Betsy was here to help with that. So I appreciate that and until they came and had tea and snacks we had she remains heavily discount some food for us. So that was much appreciated so that we could still make some money on the event. Charmaine, Shane’s big shock people there they hear the knock here but they provided the food food or tea that we had,
Speaker 3 51:40
which was very nice. Yeah. So that worked out well. He
Unknown Speaker 51:43
spelled s
Speaker 2 51:44
h a m a n e s. And then we had crafting Valentine crafting supplies upstairs and I did like a little history of Valentine’s Day in Europe and America Olsen’s samples of collage Valentine’s and really seem to have a good time I sent out a survey yesterday. Haven’t heard me think back yet. But hopefully people will have favorable some good feedback feedback or constructive feedback.
Unknown Speaker 52:14
Just jumps in what’s that for
Unknown Speaker 52:15
any photos taken? Anything?
Speaker 2 52:17
Out of Time photos? Yeah, we were kind of running around in the beginning up until up until time but we got I got some photos of the upstairs room full with people making Valentines and a few people at tea and some nice.
Unknown Speaker 52:36
Okay
Speaker 3 52:40
way to participate or jump at anticipate what I was going to ask this was what was the feedback on it?
Speaker 2 52:49
Yeah, hopefully we get constructive or positive feedback.
Unknown Speaker 52:55
It sounds lovely.
Unknown Speaker 53:05
Okay, now we’re gonna move on to the auto House briefing.
Speaker 2 53:14
So yeah, that’s just encompassing some potential storage for tables and chairs in the house and also just a little bit of an update on the bed, kitchenette and bathroom area. I can use a few things to be a little bit more updated and well, I say Update. But really it’s like, okay, making them period appropriate. Okay, yeah, looking
Speaker 3 53:45
to be listed as restore or renovation rather than revamp
Speaker 2 53:50
yet well revamp is there because it’s not meant to be like a large overhaul restoration or it’s more just a few little things to
Unknown Speaker 54:01
and I can make it
Speaker 2 54:03
seem a little more period appropriate. Yeah. And it’s upscale for weddings. And
Speaker 3 54:10
I’m not sure when to bring this up. But this is part of the one of the things that we talked about when we were discussing the revamp is for storage for tables and chairs. Do we really want to be purchasing tables and chairs? Or do we want to continue the practice of not renting the chairs and then we don’t have to do the maintenance on that. And we still we still make revenue off of that because there’s a well, tables and chairs we’re trying to
Speaker 7 54:44
we’re trying to go into industry standards and stick with you was their folks are doing so that when people are trying to compare place to place options option that they have a reasonably fair comparison shows
Speaker 2 55:01
Yeah, so we need to have that as part of our inclusions just in terms of stimuli, that staying current with other venues. And also the revenue, the net revenue that we bring in from weddings would be significantly greater. So then
Speaker 3 55:21
the pain, the first rental of the
Unknown Speaker 55:24
eventually is going to catch up, and it’s gonna pay
Speaker 2 55:27
for I mean, we’ll be watching the table package to include it, right. So with the package price, instead of you know, a 200 or $2,000 of that coming out from us to then pay the rental company, that’s just going straight into net revenue,
Speaker 1 55:48
rather than whatever the cost of the the rental would normally be. And then adding the additional for maintenance. For profit. You’re saying it would be better to purchase materials, and then have to store and maintain will replace them to go ahead and build into the package, renting it without having to maintain and store and replace the
Speaker 2 56:27
materials? Yes, I mean, forget revenue purposes, yes. Because the maintenance of those is relatively simple. Catering can even help with the cleaning process as part of their setup and take down. And, you know, we can get the Autohaus rearranged a little bit between upstairs and downstairs garden shed, there should be plenty of room for storage.
Speaker 4 56:50
And depending on the purchase, there’s really not that much maintenance should people know? And
Speaker 2 56:56
yes, with the idea that some you know, will have to be replaced. Usually it’s, you know, a couple chairs at a time over the years, but they wouldn’t be paid for just with June weddings.
Unknown Speaker 57:10
So
Speaker 1 57:15
how much would it take up? How much space would it take up from the House House, when we’re hoping actually be able to show them and open it up more for enhanced events, and it’s now
Speaker 2 57:31
moved them, I’ve moved to our house around to now that the oven is out to have the side space for the oven wise is completely open. So that’s just an open space right now. So a storage unit could potentially go in there, not everything has to be stored in there, a lot of venues have a garden shed type of a storage unit for tables. So not everything has to be stored in the Autohaus. But potentially, period appropriate storage unit could be built in there to kind of close that stuff off. So you don’t see it. It’s
Speaker 4 58:04
been it’s really, the ones I’ve seen are not unsightly, and they don’t take up that much space. Really.
Speaker 2 58:10
I mean, we’ve been serving tables and chairs in there. So if anything was just helped to elevate it a little bit from what has been going on in there, using it as the group’s cottage, right.
Speaker 1 58:22
So let’s also use for clubs. It has been
Unknown Speaker 58:30
we’re hoping that we’ve got we could open it up.
Speaker 2 58:34
I mean, the fact that there are tables or chairs on a PA system all being stored in there now having an actual storage unit where those can be tucked away. It is now so and again, not everything has to go in there with we get basically out and some of the gardening stuff can be stored on there, then potentially the tables can be stored in the garden shed, if there’s I’m
Speaker 3 58:55
thinking we have a fair area for storage possibilities that’s not being utilized. I understand that. I just wonder, I’m just thinking over the overall is it a good way choice about storing them? And repairing is a long term? Well, for effective cost for us. That’s that’s one of the things and the one thing I have to consider. I also
Speaker 2 59:24
have user doing that now rather than writing. I understand that
Speaker 3 59:29
and but this also gives the bridal parties different options on how to do setups and whatnot. I understand your understanding, is that going to limit us in that aspect?
Speaker 2 59:41
Um, we would get to the most popular industry standard choice at the moment and then if you’d want to add something different, we’re certainly welcome to do so. Okay.
Speaker 5 59:52
I think they’ve done their homework and I know what they’re talking about. So, yeah, I’d say okay, It
Speaker 4 1:00:02
sounds good to me. Nobody else. comments on this question.
Speaker 1 1:00:09
Does the city already own tables and chairs that are used for different city?
Speaker 7 1:00:15
Not that wouldn’t be appropriate for this?
Unknown Speaker 1:00:19
More than Yes. Real? Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1:00:25
Just trying to make sure.
Unknown Speaker 1:00:31
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 7 1:00:32
That’s a really good question. 300 chairs and tables at the memorial monument there.
Unknown Speaker 1:00:41
Okay. Thank you. Okay.
Speaker 4 1:00:44
Thank you. And we’re moving on to club selection criteria. Is that something that’s the we can slide into club affair?
Speaker 1 1:00:57
No, I actually have a separate, separate. Okay. But if it’s all right, I would like to suggest our I would like to hit that up, I’d like to leave that pepper. But I do think it will be all of us contributing. But it will likely be a separate meeting, outside of
Speaker 3 1:01:31
more than glad to help with the club selection criteria since I actually am on a club that is here. Yeah, I would love to be part of that. Karen. I don’t want
Speaker 5 1:01:41
to, again, is their Club’s selection criteria already?
Unknown Speaker 1:01:50
I think that’s part.
Unknown Speaker 1:01:53
So we’re not reinventing the
Speaker 1 1:01:54
wheel? We know. Well, we were we’re
Speaker 4 1:01:58
developing tweaking we are we
Speaker 1 1:02:01
are developing what actually we’re developing a standard? I think.
Unknown Speaker 1:02:06
So it doesn’t look like there’s any
Speaker 1 1:02:07
discrimination based on what has historically. Okay.
Speaker 5 1:02:12
That’s the question is based solely based on historics?
Unknown Speaker 1:02:16
Yes. So and what we have here in the house survey, yes. So
Speaker 1 1:02:21
while there’s nothing in writing, the objective is to put something in writing, and it will be very in line with what has historically been done for the house. And what we need to be open to to ensure inclusivity.
Speaker 2 1:02:38
And that being said, basically, just about everything, we’ll see answer to that. But the idea, I think for that criteria is that we will clubs that we’re looking for that we’re hoping for, but I mean, if we haven’t we’re open to anybody that is interested in using the house in an appropriate way. Yes.
Speaker 1 1:02:56
Give us the chance. And I’m gonna say, because I’m optimistic when we have 20 clubs beating down the door saying they want to meet here, and we only have room on the calendar for, say, another seven, then we have some criteria, then begin to look at say, These clubs are really going to be more in line with what we need to complete. Proper community outreach and for for this house,
Speaker 3 1:03:28
I also think that helps in in answering the roof anyway, I apologize. I think it helps in the sense that we have a standard form, or standard information out there. So it looks like we’re not being it’s subjective and subjective. And the fact that there hasn’t been at one in place, it kind of opens us up for problems. I think it’s important to have a policy, just like we’re doing with the donation.
Unknown Speaker 1:03:58
Yeah, just like the donations, that would be where
Unknown Speaker 1:04:01
you
Speaker 6 1:04:04
your criteria might be things like the goals of the club, you know?
Unknown Speaker 1:04:14
How does the club support the community?
Speaker 3 1:04:18
It also helps with the grant purposes, then we can just say, this is exactly what we’re looking at. This is what we utilize. Yeah. And
Speaker 5 1:04:25
again, fall back on your grants, because the grants give you some guidelines. That’s exactly yeah.
Speaker 1 1:04:31
And that’s why, if you can keep that in mind as you’re looking at companies and who they want to partner with house as being a partner, friend and supporter of the house, also look at whatever grant opportunities that they’re offering. And let’s see what else is there anything in there that we need to pay attention to? Include in when we’re looking at a glove does the club fulfill anything, what their brand kind of their, their ideal, you know who they’re going to give money to? It’s going to serve this purpose.
Speaker 4 1:05:10
You guys flesh that out? Well, okay.
Speaker 1 1:05:14
It’ll be I think I’ll eat it. But I’ll go ahead and can we put this on for all visits for next month? And we can then come up with a day that might be good for a meeting? Can task meeting outside of board meeting? Okay. Yes.
Speaker 3 1:05:29
I do think it’s not like we’re recreating the wheel at all. I think it’s about clarifying the wheel and cleaning it up and making sure that we’re on point informations accurate, and it’s not changing.
Speaker 4 1:05:42
And they’d like to happen. Like, just before the club gets really tough, solidified. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So we’ll move that to old business for next time, and so has a date. Okay, moving down to dates for open houses, for 2024.
Speaker 2 1:06:05
So we’ve done one in April, let’s begin. While it was last year, we did April, July, and September for that Artwalk. And then the holiday open houses. So I assume
Speaker 3 1:06:21
this actually opens another can of worms of committee setup. We normally do that in in the January meeting. And we didn’t
Speaker 2 1:06:30
do that we should use that for our walk, particularly for our walk. Okay, to make
Unknown Speaker 1:06:35
sure that we have that in place. So we’re covering
Speaker 1 1:06:42
for right now, or I think that would be a good fit.
Unknown Speaker 1:06:46
When is the date for our walk?
Speaker 2 1:06:48
That’s what we need to decide for t 14, September 14.
Unknown Speaker 1:06:55
Yeah, it is.
Speaker 5 1:06:58
So if you’re saying we need to get our name in there.
Speaker 3 1:07:03
I think I think we need to get it set. So we have it’s working in in we have people working on this. We got we definitely got the club affair and everything set. And I think that’s great. But I think normally what we do, one of the things that we had worked on is
Unknown Speaker 1:07:22
in January that any
Speaker 3 1:07:25
outside tasks needed to be set up in January. So set for the year. So we know, that was an
Speaker 2 1:07:32
mentioned also that she has a binder that she wanted to share with us. So you get that from her when I get her signature for that.
Unknown Speaker 1:07:38
That would be wonderful. Or let me
Speaker 2 1:07:42
ask, do you want to cheer on our committee that morning?
Speaker 3 1:07:45
I just want to double check on the dates that I
Unknown Speaker 1:07:49
am good to go.
Unknown Speaker 1:07:51
I mean, Islanders.
Unknown Speaker 1:07:55
I’m concerned that actually might fall on my knees as
Speaker 2 1:08:01
the 14th is a Saturday. Correct? Correct. Second Saturday in September
Speaker 3 1:08:09
that’s going to be a problem for me. Because it’s my God. So I’ll go with it. But I couldn’t. I could share the committee. But the problem is I’m concerned that that day, I will not be able to. That’s
Unknown Speaker 1:08:24
right. We just got it set up.
Speaker 1 1:08:26
So yeah, but can you Once the work is done in advance and then yeah, they can be present.
Speaker 3 1:08:37
And present and we Okay, I’d be more than glad to. This is one of those quick things that who knew that that would be the day but that’s the day well, the
Unknown Speaker 1:08:46
work is done in advance. So you’re okay with Yeah,
Speaker 3 1:08:49
I’ll be more than glad to chair that than that for Merlok Thank you ladies appreciate it
Unknown Speaker 1:09:02
What time does that normally
Speaker 2 1:09:08
last year, afternoon was yeah, it’s afternoon. It’s evening.
Speaker 3 1:09:17
48 isn’t it? Something like that? Yeah, something like that. We can it is really like if it was I was thinking it would be earlier than that. But yeah, it’s pretty rare.
Unknown Speaker 1:09:32
Hopefully it’ll be great weather and
Speaker 3 1:09:34
we already know when the air walk is scheduled for spring. Historically, they said
Unknown Speaker 1:09:44
they’ve been only doing one
Speaker 3 1:09:47
but now that COVID has opened up I wasn’t sure if they’re gonna do a spring.
Speaker 1 1:09:51
I haven’t heard of that. I will look into that. Thank you used to do one in the spring and
Speaker 7 1:09:55
spring on a smaller than Yeah, but yeah, Yeah, but
Speaker 3 1:10:00
then COVID hit and everything so
Unknown Speaker 1:10:04
yeah, wiggle things around.
Speaker 1 1:10:06
So do we need to set the other open space?
Speaker 2 1:10:09
Yeah April July Yeah. I apologize for getting the December ones
Unknown Speaker 1:10:15
yeah this point yes please. So
Speaker 2 1:10:25
I say for December we want to do same thing regular core and Santa These are usually on Friday nights are Friday or the like the the eighth the April and July ones that we had a month
Speaker 2 1:10:53
later in April, I did it last year, the year.
Speaker 1 1:11:09
April 26, a spring in house. What last year I’m just giving you info for last year. We did a July 26 Summer open house. Both of those had times from 430 to 630. Now remember that we decided after one that wasn’t long enough. It’s two hours just too much. It’s too short. So we got keep that in mind for time than the next we did was the September 9, our block and then we had December 1 Santa and December 7 Open House. So
Unknown Speaker 1:11:40
for all so
Unknown Speaker 1:11:42
that was a Wednesday night I
Speaker 4 1:11:47
was that one we had like was it 17?
Speaker 1 1:11:54
part it was that it was not publicized. It’s not as much as much of it. Yeah. And so that’s part of that. That’s a problem. We’ve got to make sure we don’t Kabataan this year
Speaker 2 1:12:07
so the last Wednesday we’re gonna do is report we’re gonna do like Thursday night or
Unknown Speaker 1:12:21
Thursday night is good to
Unknown Speaker 1:12:24
know that would be cool. For some reason.
Speaker 1 1:12:28
Maybe we try that this year. Why go for Thursday night?
Unknown Speaker 1:12:32
It’s worth a try. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1:12:36
So April is going to be over.
Speaker 1 1:12:43
Open House, nothing. Spring break is early this year is early March with Arlo, which could you help me do it? Sure. I will include doing one on just July, you want to stay with another Thursday or you want to try a Wednesday just for kicks and giggles to see if there’s a day of the week tends to be better or when we consistently stay with a Thursday?
Speaker 2 1:13:17
Well, Thursday couldn’t be the 25th is the same in July is that Fox Thursday? July, let’s do that just
Speaker 1 1:13:30
to get people’s minds better. And then the time for each of those. What should we planned for?
Speaker 2 1:13:35
Do we find that the 430 was a good time slot or was better for after work time?
Speaker 1 1:13:40
You can work as long as we go to later. Yes,
Unknown Speaker 1:13:44
we’d like full 37
Speaker 1 1:13:47
Or you just sit there for 38 now because the
Speaker 3 1:13:51
suggestion Could we move it to five I think people come after work. They come in after work gets their most people work. So could we consider changing it to five to 730 for a
Unknown Speaker 1:14:09
separate time. Yeah. Children
Unknown Speaker 1:14:11
might come before that.
Speaker 2 1:14:15
I just needed hourly numbers for Well, I don’t think we did. We did for July, which is I remember that having conversations like this for 30 minutes I better Yeah, but maybe this 430 to 730 and that
Speaker 3 1:14:28
it does open it up for a nice
Unknown Speaker 1:14:34
No, it’s not for sure.
Speaker 1 1:14:37
Yeah. For 3730 for each dose this spring and the summer openness.
Unknown Speaker 1:14:45
And the dates are set for the 25th of
Unknown Speaker 1:14:49
July. Okay, yeah. Yeah, okay, so we can do to save her
Unknown Speaker 1:14:57
for one second. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1:15:01
So I’m sorry, I’m gonna start to get that out. So
Unknown Speaker 1:15:05
everyone’s gonna be in a brochure that’s coming out great.
Speaker 3 1:15:09
That will help a lot and Christmas is already set. And then they’ll also
Speaker 1 1:15:13
both be in constant contact, obviously. So they didn’t
Unknown Speaker 1:15:16
do it. Yeah, we haven’t been
Speaker 1 1:15:20
discombobulated in the past. Just going to border so September 14 is Artwalk. And the time on that is going to be
Speaker 3 1:15:31
on I think, I think normally we do set up but three, and then we run until eight or, or
Unknown Speaker 1:15:40
thank god yeah, yeah, I have to deny as
Unknown Speaker 1:15:42
when I was so so so they normally
Speaker 3 1:15:46
set up at we asked him to be here by three. The event starts I believe at 430 or three equal? Yeah, for four days. I think it’s four to eight.
Unknown Speaker 1:15:57
Three to nine would be
Speaker 1 1:16:02
8pm is the event Correct? Yeah. Even lines. Setup and cleanup. Okay, now on to December, right. And
Unknown Speaker 1:16:13
then the similar.
Speaker 2 1:16:16
First, Friday is the sixth. Correct. And that was the SANS fortune. And then we did the other one. Public later which I wasn’t Oh, sorry. No, no, that’s
Speaker 1 1:16:37
right. So last year, we did the the open house one on Thursday night because it was December 7. We did the Santa’s on the first which was holiday
Unknown Speaker 1:16:47
lights will be on?
Speaker 1 1:16:49
Yeah. So we need to be consistent. Go with the garden. The 12 is the Thursday. There’s best Yeah. Alright, is the six we’re standing and then the 12 for open houses on Thursday.
Speaker 7 1:17:08
Whenever you have some alterations to Halloween items, okay.
Speaker 2 1:17:20
338 for the open house, so it must have been for seven I think sounds familiar. Yeah. Actually, we
Unknown Speaker 1:17:29
did 430 I think yeah, that’s
Unknown Speaker 1:17:34
last year. Yeah. Yeah. 730
Unknown Speaker 1:17:38
So 612 That’s
Speaker 1 1:17:41
on the sixth and we can get closer. So for 4730 On the sixth but then what did we want to do on the 12th? Because it
Speaker 2 1:17:50
was it was less it was a four seven yeah
Unknown Speaker 1:17:57
well attended counseling Yeah, that was really well attended I know
Unknown Speaker 1:18:12
there’s nothing going on downtown on
Unknown Speaker 1:18:19
Uber rather have that on something
Speaker 3 1:18:23
as opposed to trying to trying to do we are you know in the holiday praying 13th and 14th
Unknown Speaker 1:18:35
So then, it
Speaker 4 1:18:39
should be 40 740-730-7347
Speaker 2 1:18:46
because it gets dark.
Speaker 5 1:18:49
So you may want to even start well,
Unknown Speaker 1:18:53
a little earlier is okay for
Speaker 5 1:18:56
little kids. Since like the families kids came earlier. Yeah, they did.
Speaker 7 1:19:04
That has to do though is how long Santa’s schedule
Unknown Speaker 1:19:08
right yeah. Well
Speaker 2 1:19:12
this year but do we want the core to be the same as Santa or are the same so did last year? I think I think we did the same as last year we it was
Speaker 4 1:19:21
really well attended. That was yeah, it’s just advertised from four to whatever Yeah. Because the lady that that same you know ran into head I’m sure with it said eight o’clock. We went out in connection with
Speaker 1 1:19:41
but and so are we staying with that four to seven. I think we should stick with that.
Speaker 3 1:19:46
I disagree. I think we should stick with our standard times of every open house. We just do it from 430 to 730 and call it good.
Unknown Speaker 1:19:55
I kind of makes that thing.
Speaker 1 1:19:57
So yes, don’t always forget You just 730 Yeah,
Speaker 3 1:20:01
I think we keep it standard. So it makes sense Artwalk will be different the only one that’s going to be different but
Unknown Speaker 1:20:08
Santa is different
Speaker 3 1:20:14
but it seems to me if we have an open house we should keep it a standard tourism. So all our open houses are around Yeah, yeah. And I just think it makes more sense
Speaker 9 1:20:37
four it’s a
Unknown Speaker 1:20:43
reservation reservations
Speaker 2 1:20:45
for cemetery. All open houses are forfeited. 730 are okay.
Speaker 3 1:20:51
And I think we did jump ahead. We should go back to November and we should schedule when we’re decorating.
Unknown Speaker 1:21:01
Ready
Unknown Speaker 1:21:07
my scheduled it’s booked up really quick. So now
Unknown Speaker 1:21:15
we’re going back to November and I apologize.
Unknown Speaker 1:21:17
You may be scared with something kind of tentative,
Unknown Speaker 1:21:19
but yeah, that’s what I’m saying.
Speaker 2 1:21:23
We’re also looking at you’re an artist that wants to do like Holiday Market
Speaker 9 1:21:27
in November which if we need to shift it, we can but let’s get a tentative date on the calendar. Okay.
Speaker 4 1:21:35
Please, since Thanksgiving this year 2008
Speaker 3 1:21:40
Yeah, it’s it that’s part of the reason I’m like going gosh, guys, it’s gonna be weird. Wow.
Unknown Speaker 1:21:49
Does it need to be done before Thanksgiving or
Speaker 2 1:21:54
this year? We were late weren’t me. Yeah, I think we might want to look more like late October be too early to say
Unknown Speaker 1:22:05
an October Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1:22:08
Do I holiday myself early.
Unknown Speaker 1:22:11
Oh, and we might need a download earlier if
Speaker 3 1:22:14
that’s the case if if decorating earlier gets us more events in here I’m good for that
Unknown Speaker 1:22:20
I’m it doesn’t matter we’re gonna
Unknown Speaker 1:22:21
see when she was looking at doing it
Unknown Speaker 1:22:29
they’re wanting to have
Speaker 2 1:22:30
the market on the third and the 10th of November it’s like a Holiday Market so we go to
Unknown Speaker 1:22:39
decorate it would be
Unknown Speaker 1:22:41
okay
Unknown Speaker 1:22:46
so like yeah, late
Speaker 3 1:22:48
October if we want to do October okay. First
Unknown Speaker 1:22:56
yeah
Speaker 2 1:23:02
not only do I have stuff like programs October
Unknown Speaker 1:23:07
that we don’t want
Unknown Speaker 1:23:11
yeah, like maybe that we
Speaker 3 1:23:14
could we do November 1 Like today that Friday? Yeah. To just come in during the day and do it yeah, get it done. It feels weird. Yeah. Well, it also eliminates us from having the part of an open house you know,
Speaker 2 1:23:36
to have to be like complete that day because we won’t have any time to finish these last few things right.
Speaker 3 1:23:43
We could complete it on the first I think if all of us get here and do it we we can do it
Speaker 5 1:23:48
and do it. Well if we have a plan ahead of time, right? Yeah, can we get the boxes
Speaker 2 1:23:54
set like last year we were like trying to do the luncheon and right oh no
Unknown Speaker 1:23:59
it’s just too much
Speaker 4 1:24:04
Yeah, whenever when we get done thank you
Unknown Speaker 1:24:12
I’m sorry to be so pushy, but
Speaker 4 1:24:19
okay, I think we I think we’ve got that nailed down really well. All the open houses are 730 or three exam that will arrange our schedules accordingly as they get closer. Okay, under new business, the oven safety check.
Unknown Speaker 1:24:35
I’m so glad we did that.
Unknown Speaker 1:24:37
I are doing that so
Speaker 7 1:24:39
I’m still on fire. She was comfortable with where we’re at with with continuation from the previous one that she recommended that we get. Go ahead and get the companies whoever the company service people in the area are She just had to take a look. And which is fine to do that, but you’ve you’ve been working well, yeah,
Speaker 2 1:25:06
so I did, I didn’t actually hear back. So there I just waiting for the tech to call me the appointment. But they have received that order they’ve pushed it through their system. And so we’re just waiting to get the get the phone call to set
Speaker 3 1:25:17
an appointment, I do have to state I am very disappointed in the oven that was purchased. I think it was poorly done. The fact that those burners are going to be on all the time, the fact that it is a gas oven and only have one rack and it was previously a gas oven. Is it no longer a gas?
Unknown Speaker 1:25:40
Well, yeah,
Speaker 3 1:25:41
I know it was previously a gas oven. But I just think like, like it really isn’t like to like because the the older that was, the better. It is like this is two years ago. And I understand that. But I think in future, what if we replace that item, we should have a much better conversation about it, because it would have been better if we had an electric oven in a gas range. And the fact that the burners are going to be on all the time increases are the heating and air conditioning increases. It’s just was poorly done. In moving forward, I understand that we can’t afford to replace that oven, currently. And I also stand understand that we had a issue with the installation and having whole thing it’s truthfully it’s been a nightmare about the whole thing. I just wish the board had had more input on the choosing of the piece in the first place. Because it just
Speaker 1 1:26:45
so with what we have, here’s a question duction burners have to remain, or can they just be lit? When it’s time to be using
Unknown Speaker 1:27:02
the company but it wouldn’t be it’d be
Unknown Speaker 1:27:06
you’d have to have a kiss. Yeah, you probably have
Unknown Speaker 1:27:09
a professional do that.
Unknown Speaker 1:27:10
Because of the safety issue
Speaker 7 1:27:12
set up as a commercial as a commercial. Because food is made here was bought as a commercial oven. And I know you understand all this stuff. But and I’m not, I’m not gonna sit here and defend that. Because I agree with you oriented. It’s what we got. So we’ll just make sure that it’s working properly.
Speaker 1 1:27:35
I understand what we could have right, be sure it’s safe, you’re making sure it’s properly clean, this burners are not sealed. So I guess there’s a process to make sure that we don’t fire due to drippings and whatever. That’s something to think about just dealing with what we have been aware of it. We’ve properly cleaned it, what hasn’t been cleaned, what’s
Speaker 7 1:28:04
we get to check on it. The hood looks clean,
Unknown Speaker 1:28:07
it looks clean. But I just think that
Speaker 7 1:28:09
this is used solely infrequently. But it’s, it should be checked annually.
Speaker 3 1:28:15
That’s That’s exactly I like to have it put on the maintenance list of something that’s done, because that’s where most wires start. And for free for reference in replacement of, say, of refrigerators or any equipment in the house, I would like that to be a board item that’s looked at. And then we’re including an understanding of not the cleaning of the hood, but the fact the purchase of any appliances that are going to be put in the house. I’d like to be clued in on. I think it’s important. We I mean, I have experience in this and maybe not all board members do. But I think we have interest in what’s going to be best for the house. And having that’s part of the reason why we’re here as a board to be an input board. And if we’re excluded. It kind of circumvents what we’re doing. I just think that, that if if certain appliances don’t need to be replaced, and we’re just replacing them to replace some question that will need the sound pot. Yeah. If
Speaker 1 1:29:25
something has to be replaced, it’s a good idea. You know, many, many, many minds come up with you know, hey, thank you
Speaker 3 1:29:33
bouncing off ideas and the fact I understand to purchase a spinning, I understand we’re kind of stuck with it. I’m not happy with it. I just think it was a poor purchase prior two years, two years, two years ago, this whole time and and I understand that and it has nothing that you can do or change it but at a certain point will it will need to be replaced. I just would like Good to be included in the board position. Yes. Hey, Carrie, since
Speaker 1 1:30:03
we’re dealing, but we have fire extinguishers, how many do we have in the kitchen? Maybe we should have two when we have one.
Speaker 2 1:30:11
Sure, I mean, the safety committee comes in make sure that we’re up to par and all of that they just did a check recently. But I
Speaker 1 1:30:18
think signal wise, where, where it is important where they are, if there’s a time that we need to get that quick care,
Speaker 3 1:30:26
I think we are actually doing that by doing part of the inventory and looking at the inventory and then seeing where the fire things are. And I Brittany’s really on top of making sure that that the first aid kits, and all of those are up to date and whatnot. That’s not really my point. My point is I just wish, not wish i i am requesting that we as a board be included in some of these decisions. That’s it. And it’s again, the city will make a decision on what they choose to do. But I would like to have her input including
Speaker 4 1:31:07
anything else? Okay, we’re gonna move delays, window balances and library traits. sat there at my desk.
Speaker 1 1:31:22
Yeah, exactly. Yeah. So So during the inventory, it reminded me and it was candies idea, which is fabulous. If we need to get rid of the top so that people can see the beautiful windows. It’s really hot them restored and just so beautiful, protective glass outside of them. And they make this gorgeous, stay.
Unknown Speaker 1:31:46
Heavy ones.
Speaker 1 1:31:47
Yes, that’s, that sounds over. So removing all the top lace things will allow, you know, all of the beauty of that window to be seen, right? And you can see it from outside, but you can’t see from inside. And it’s okay that we have these bottom. Their privacy, that’s fine. But then also, yes, in the library. The drapes are really heavy. And what we could do is scale them back. So it would take removing them in too much. Cutting a lot of it out, but kind of recreating it so that it instead of being more like a real true drink. It’s more like a little bit of a border
Unknown Speaker 1:32:30
decor than kind of
Speaker 1 1:32:33
accents. Look at this time soldier.
Speaker 3 1:32:38
That’s that’s that’s what I was gonna ask what about some changes from
Speaker 2 1:32:41
the sun? idea about the top balances and
Unknown Speaker 1:32:47
do you close?
Speaker 1 1:32:49
You close the library drapes? Yeah, they’re never closed anyway. So the more of
Unknown Speaker 1:32:55
this aesthetic? Yeah,
Speaker 1 1:32:56
it’s really not going to make any change other than open up from the inside to be able to see
Speaker 3 1:33:03
and that was your suggestion that we removed the the lace so we can see this.
Unknown Speaker 1:33:10
How many rooms have the lace balance?
Unknown Speaker 1:33:12
I think everything everything Has?
Speaker 6 1:33:16
Yeah, I’m just it’s not just dining room and these are music robots.
Speaker 1 1:33:21
But we know that simple jerky it’s not going to cause
Speaker 2 1:33:25
me to open up the library curtains you know? I mean they can be slit open more to me.
Speaker 1 1:33:34
I was gonna say I mean, I might select too much material price and
Speaker 2 1:33:40
we do want some sun protection. Yeah. Because they certainly don’t Sunday they are
Speaker 5 1:33:49
well I move that we consider the removal of some of the the Lance’s the top curtains in the rooms based on whether we need some protection or not to expose the stained glass window so we can see more of them also.
Unknown Speaker 1:34:10
Stefan,
Speaker 4 1:34:12
my question is the use of the word consider.
Unknown Speaker 1:34:17
Do it. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1:34:19
Well, let’s just say we also need to consider what
Speaker 7 1:34:24
and I don’t want to be in staff to be in conflict with a decision that you guys have made here when in the end, it’s our decision. So I would rather that decision be in a month after she has a little bit more time to make sure. Protection stuff like that. Like we’re fully on board, for sure. Yeah. But let’s make sure because I mean, I’m with you 100%. But even with the old ones. Basically we had shaded windows, lack of a better term and now they’re bright and shiny, you know, everything’s clean. Well I need more sun. And so
Speaker 3 1:35:01
what damage is that going to do the carpets and other things? So I just
Speaker 7 1:35:04
want to dig into a little bit more on it. So table it for a month and what let’s do that, but I think we’re bored, we may just take something out. So you’re still.
Unknown Speaker 1:35:19
Second question about
Speaker 1 1:35:24
tempered glass about the exterior glass. Is it not?
Unknown Speaker 1:35:29
Light are really
Speaker 1 1:35:36
not tell us when I was skinny which is not a possibility? I don’t know if they can apply it to the exterior classroom. done on the interior of class. I
Speaker 10 1:35:53
don’t know enough about that. That’s something that could protect.
Unknown Speaker 1:35:59
Yes. Clear? Yeah.
Speaker 5 1:36:05
So I’m going to discuss this further. Yeah, that’s,
Speaker 7 1:36:09
I think that’s another realm that we’re working on here. And also, we haven’t even gotten into a season. But the sun coming. Also, since it was August, and August. Sun’s already pretty high.
Speaker 3 1:36:26
But couldn’t we at least considering or considering the ones particularly thick? This one? Windows?
Unknown Speaker 1:36:36
Yeah. That’s what I said. We’re on board. So we’ll just start doing that. So
Unknown Speaker 1:36:44
to completely change the table this discussion? And
Unknown Speaker 1:36:48
in the meantime, we find out that we’re good to go. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1:36:54
Because everybody’s on board. Right. Okay, that okay.
Speaker 1 1:37:00
there’s any question that it’s not going to be okay. And there needs to be more protection. It can’t happen with the glass on the exterior, then Could it be that for events the top bar be made so that it is can easily excuse? Yeah, little spring loaded something so that it’s easy for events, we can just take that down, tuck it away and then have the event? Again, I’m also picking up that backup as needed. Please
Speaker 3 1:37:30
turn about staff time that’s allotted time, but
Unknown Speaker 1:37:37
Right. There’s
Speaker 4 1:37:41
just talking about Yeah. Okay, moving on from old from new business items from staff in
Speaker 7 1:37:53
the grass What did we leave that with? Right, I think we’re having to push that off the pressure they’re seeing with the grass till fall, but
Speaker 2 1:38:05
I hadn’t I hadn’t heard anything about it other than what to see what
Speaker 7 1:38:09
we wanted to work on the grass this spring, right? I have a plan with golf. Well, could be just having your irrigation replaced. That’s something else. So I’m not really concerned about are his there being able to commit the time because that’s obviously a huge priority to read or grasp because that’s been while it’s done very neatly, it still leaves a mess. And so I think we’ll probably be pushing that off till training for the Fall growing season, which we’ll see. We’ll see. We’re on board. He’s on board. We had a plan. I thought that’s what he said. I hope I understand
Speaker 3 1:38:55
what you’re saying. And I understand the logistics but I also am concerned that the gardens look for the best particularly if we’re considered doing a video that we can achieve the best that we can strictly talking about grass. Yeah, I know. It affects everything
Unknown Speaker 1:39:13
I understand. I just Well, yeah, do the best you can I understand.
Unknown Speaker 1:39:20
Thank you for the information.
Unknown Speaker 1:39:24
At least we know where we stand. I’m
Speaker 7 1:39:26
just not sure and it’s always there and stuff. It’s it is what it is. Okay,
Speaker 2 1:39:37
are there any items from the board? I have some staff items to backup your staff. So just I think everybody I didn’t want to fabulous and there’s nothing wrong with this. Like we just need to get the ball put back in and then truweight also exposed or the word the phone came off. And so they had to patch that. And they did the paint job. It looks pretty flawless. I
Speaker 3 1:40:09
was gonna compliment you. You’re just ahead of me, because the board comments.
Unknown Speaker 1:40:16
But yeah, congratulations,
Speaker 2 1:40:17
finally. All right. It looks like they’re still trying to figure out playing for the upstairs like scouts. But it’s a little wood chips and things like that and been replaced also. So Brittany,
Unknown Speaker 1:40:36
congratulations, and thank you for all your hard work.
Unknown Speaker 1:40:40
It was Empire, but but still.
Unknown Speaker 1:40:45
You’re done, you’re
Unknown Speaker 1:40:46
done. Okay. And
Speaker 2 1:40:49
then the other update I have is, we’re currently in the process of deep learning that’s been going on, it’s done, the city is doing it. Every Saturday in February, someone has been here doing a deep cleaning of the house, which is really great. And we met with them a couple weeks ago for the project started to go through everything and really excited about the work that they’re doing. And then moving forward custodial is going to be here on bi weekly basis instead of just weekly, so excited to just kind of like have the deep cleaning done as a reset, and then have somebody here twice a week at general cleaning and keeping up all that. So question
Speaker 7 1:41:28
on I’m sorry, we were approved for I think it was three new custodian citywide. We had to add a custodial manager last year, which I have mixed feelings about as far as control of that system. But in the big picture, it will be so DNS is good. And so it’s allowing you some flexibility, course.
Speaker 3 1:41:53
Question and concerns that has been raised by the deep clean up anything. So we need to be taken care of are considering
Speaker 2 1:42:01
No, but I don’t imagine that that would probably be the case. I mean, this person is not looking for the additional the no damage or things like that. But if something comes up, we’ll certainly address it. So you’re kind of starting from the top down.
Unknown Speaker 1:42:18
So yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1:42:21
Great. Okay, that’s it. Now
Speaker 5 1:42:28
I have two things to share. Christian canard has to a February 5, and she was the wife of Jess combs who was on there. Christian was invited to be as the mayor’s wife a part of the board when when he served, right. And she said, Well, sure, I’ll be on the board. But do I have voting rights? And we said, No, because you’re the mayor’s wife, you’re just took our son here. And she said, Well, then I’m not going to do it. I’m going to run for the board. So she interviewed for the board and served on the board. I don’t know how many years. But anyway, she was very sweet person. And so just wanted you guys to know that she passed away. And if it’s okay, I will take one of the Callahan house cards that we have and write a note to husband from us for
Speaker 3 1:43:22
I think that’s a wonderful idea. And honestly, I’m just going to suggest that in addition to that, I would like to do a congratulations card for the baby as well from the board. cards to see the baby first or secretary or I’m
Unknown Speaker 1:43:43
gonna do that. Would you do with
Speaker 3 1:43:48
a card from support for the new baby? Secretary, whoever wants to do it. Okay, that would be wonderful. Thank you.
Unknown Speaker 1:43:59
Karen, you’re doing it? Yes, my handwriting.
Speaker 5 1:44:02
And then the other thing I wanted to share. You had mentioned about wanting to do the upstairs tree for Santa Claus when the kids come with golden books in. I have golden books and I have more home. So anyway, these are going to head on over. I’m going to keep them at home. But I will bring these books and we can decorate the upstairs treat with golden books and then keep an eye out for these apps, flea markets and secondhand stores and things like that for these little characters. I can we can use these users terrorists are great grandma. But yeah, anyway, this would be kind of fun to decorate the tree then with that would be wonderful.
Speaker 3 1:44:48
And I did pick up some ornaments last year actually from target that had that were book themed that were had The Little Red Riding Hood. And now I’m flunking a lot on the various different themes, but that are felt like that. And I would like to do.
Unknown Speaker 1:45:11
Cool. So we can be anything that needs
Speaker 2 1:45:13
to be right. It’s the process that we’ve created to be voted on by.
Speaker 6 1:45:21
So Are you donating the books to or that comes in notes?
Unknown Speaker 1:45:24
It could just be alone,
Speaker 5 1:45:27
just alone. Just saying, I’m gonna give you to add to whenever you go way up to the attic. Okay, something we can use there glass, red ornaments, okay, that can be used somewhere.
Speaker 3 1:45:45
I’ve been looking online and stuff and trying to look at things that are deep discount at it as well. So is there anything particularly for the trees that?
Speaker 2 1:45:55
I don’t think so we have, you know, even extra items that we didn’t use this year. So I don’t want to overload
Speaker 6 1:46:01
necessarily on all the items, but there’s something
Speaker 2 1:46:05
that is very appropriate that makes sense for historical aspect of sharing personal history, the era of the house?
Speaker 3 1:46:13
Well, we’ll do the inventory, we did find more Christmas
Speaker 2 1:46:17
items. So the pile that set aside is items that we’re considering donating. Okay, so, okay, I
Unknown Speaker 1:46:23
wasn’t sure I don’t want to
Speaker 2 1:46:24
overload with holiday decor. But if you’re gonna say that are appropriate to, to add that or
Speaker 3 1:46:33
I did want to bring it up from the board. When, when I was downstairs doing inventory, I did notice that we have a fair chunk of damage from I believe ants, on the doorways, and I didn’t point that out to you. So that needs to be included in our repair,
Unknown Speaker 1:46:58
maintenance maintenance.
Speaker 3 1:46:59
I’m concerned on how thorough those little working ants have been going through the dirt, brimstone in the basement. And if we have an issue with that we need to get ahead of it. There is a fair chunk of little crumbles down below where they’ve been eating the the wood, and we need to do mitigation or it doesn’t look like
Unknown Speaker 1:47:27
I think there is some sort of critter that’s eaten.
Speaker 3 1:47:31
But it’s going through similar to to a termite.
Speaker 1 1:47:41
Take a look here and had a couple of items. Well, the one was same thing about Kristin can matter. Because I’ve been sort of on board with her. But the other ones I wanted to ask you all you would like to have a little snippet of history, or two, one or two pieces of snippets of history about how sort of Callahans shared with you at every board meeting. And just it came to me that, you know, there were things and, and even just like what I didn’t know about that was after the PEO presentation. And I just thought, you know, this is something that could be a good opportunity to share a short little snippet about history about the Callahans. And if you’re interested in hearing something constantly I would
Speaker 3 1:48:27
be I think that’s great, because the more we learn, the better we’re going to do that certainly
Speaker 1 1:48:33
add that to our agenda. Certainly being with you right now, which is kind of boring stories. Okay. So so, there’s an interesting fact about the second floor apartment that they lived in, above the house when Callaghan’s lived there on October 18 95, little 19 methyl Raymond fell from one of the second storey windows on stone walk was a vertical drop of an 18 feet. And accountants quickly called a doctor who found that ravens injuries were limited to painful bruises. Wow. Yes, divine intervention. But basically that accident this was prompted them to begin looking for houses Oh, wow. That and then their intention begin to entertain a broken circle of friends. But that one was the security. We can’t live
Speaker 5 1:49:35
the house the store anymore. So this was about their business. Youngtown. Yes. You have the address of that business. Yes.
Speaker 1 1:49:42
Well, it was in the 300 block of Main Street. Yeah, I had the picture. That’s the one that I had held off and did not include in the at the end but but I can start in PDF presentation, but I can certainly
Speaker 5 1:49:55
share that with you. I wonder if downtown has some of those It has the golden rule, little sign things haven’t found it. But the history chickens, phone and PR, what is your QR code? QR code? No,
Speaker 1 1:50:09
I remember we did the QR code string and Artwalk many years ago. And that was our intent. And that’s why we did spend a lot of time
Unknown Speaker 1:50:17
going over to the right, but the same due
Speaker 1 1:50:20
dates and times have nothing. Yes. But to secure work. Do they have QR codes on all of the buildings downtown?
Speaker 5 1:50:29
Especially in the third and fourth block? I know they have a main street they do
Unknown Speaker 1:50:33
historic marker.
Speaker 5 1:50:36
Okay, right out in front of the buildings on a sidewalk. And you would just click a picture.
Speaker 1 1:50:43
It would be on the west side of Main Street was on the west side?
Speaker 3 1:50:49
Would that be something that we could include in our little snippet that goes out? Monthly from the Callahan house, be sure to go and look at the downtown where the building was their QR code? That was something that that
Speaker 2 1:51:02
was? Yeah, the constant contact with God wants to create content for that it’s always open. So.
Unknown Speaker 1:51:15
generates interest, generates interest.
Unknown Speaker 1:51:19
And then we could put the address and yeah, that’d be great.
Unknown Speaker 1:51:22
But what’s the mailing that it goes in? Or Constant
Unknown Speaker 1:51:25
Contact? Okay. Okay, that’d be great. Yeah.
Speaker 2 1:51:31
So that was the idea was that I’m putting together content or events and things like that. But if there are several pieces of information that you all can create the content and submit it.
Speaker 3 1:51:41
If the contents already been created by Karen sharing with the board, then that can be taken care of. That’d be great for a piece
Unknown Speaker 1:51:50
of information.
Speaker 2 1:51:52
Yeah, but something with a photo or written digital content.
Speaker 4 1:52:02
Okay, we’re moving on to future agenda items that are not listed. Does anything need to get added?
Speaker 1 1:52:13
When should we review for next restoration preservation project? Not that we’re doing it right away? But when do we need to review that list? That’s, that’s created. And
Speaker 1 1:52:34
we need to take a look and say, you know, okay, we might this one we probably need to put in for CIP, you know, here at the capital improvements. So
Speaker 7 1:52:43
this one was tear budgetarily. We’re budget requests for capital items, we start putting those in at the end of March. So we have no ideas on things. Now, again, right now, we have breakpoints in there, which is a big one. But if we want to back it up with something else, right now, Harold’s very, he’s not big on new things going in until some things are able to get done. However, it doesn’t mean we can’t try. So at least, that’s the timeline.
Speaker 1 1:53:21
Can we consider them in next month’s meeting? That will list and we can then say identify the one that is like our next on our list, so to speak. So we can say here’s our first one, we would probably say, but if the city can’t do that one, maybe this one, and it might be a lesser cost.
Speaker 7 1:53:43
Usually how that works. But I mean, we have other small things. We have other funding opportunities in PB 145. But that’s a that’s a five year out. But we have some flexibility with that as she’s starting to learn on how we do things. So if it’s things that are in the 1000 to $10,000 range, or things we can consider in a different way. But I would say now would be the time to consider anything because we want to try to put it into CIP than that. I’ll be doing that in April
Speaker 3 1:54:19
because we couldn’t we put it in as a discussion item on the agenda. So we have a better understanding. And we look at projects differently and we can say okay, we’re going to look at budgeting it here. So we as a Board have a better understanding how the city is approaching us.
Unknown Speaker 1:54:42
And we can also add ideas. I have a meeting it can be really well not don’t think so big Some rose garden areas and playground areas, the
Unknown Speaker 1:55:03
giraffe barns really
Speaker 7 1:55:07
big stuff. But nevertheless, I want to make sure I’m involved because I can go sideways.
Speaker 4 1:55:16
Okay, so can we add to the new business for March, reviewing the maintenance renovation list
Unknown Speaker 1:55:22
and identify some second
Speaker 4 1:55:29
item that might choose that and what our priority looks next.
Speaker 1 1:55:35
Because if we’re asked for sleep, we’re asking for the moon. And they’re just not going to give it to us for another five years. Why don’t we ask for a star and y star Nope. And one star a year we’re making progress. And the other thing is that we do have phonies, and Callaghan. 85,000. So there’s, there’s things that can be for restoring the you know, the chair placing the leather on the
Speaker 2 1:56:02
chairs? Yeah, that’s actually this project, the Questers local chapters of Questers are interested in coming together to donate some money. So yeah, we just need to get a quote,
Speaker 3 1:56:15
it’s considered that we’re actually looking at it as a state project that we might consider redoing this. So
Speaker 2 1:56:23
but but the point is outside of CIP and PD 145, there is other money available or things that need to beat up.
Speaker 1 1:56:31
And that’s why we have so yes, that’s why we have the list. It’s also why we have the funds, why we’re promoting people to elite to the fund to continue to maintain and restore balance. And so I’d like us to not get okay, we did this massive preparation, which was massive. We don’t need to do anything for another year. No, no. One more at least little thing that we can get done a bit unpolished and showing that you’re continuing to use this and continuing to restore and maintain.
Unknown Speaker 1:57:05
Thank you, Karen. Anything else moving to adjournment?
Unknown Speaker 1:57:16
All those in favor. Aye. Anybody object
