Latest R & R minutes

The R & R committee recently held their monthly meeting and some very important items were discussed. As far as financial issues, it was announced that a total payout, as of March 9, was $158,859.36. That total represents all the expenditures for the R & R project that have been paid thus far. It has been determined that the mural Travis Norville was due to paint will not fit within the boundaries as needed to coordinate with the statue on the south side altar. Kevin Autenrieb will instead provide painted canvass symbols of the Holy Trinity to be placed at the appropriate height and proportion above the north side altar that will coordinate with the statue on the south side altar. Travis will continue to work on finishing the Stations as scheduled. The committee has estimated that the completion of the R & R project could be as late as June 2011, while further exterior work is anticipated to extend through the summer months. With that in mind, it was determined to not establish an "Open House" or Deciation date until near or after the Steak Dinner. Bids have been recieved concerning the exterior window repair. The bids include removing the old frame storms (protective glass), scraping all wood and resealing the glass to the frame and painting. Kneeler pad replacements is still pending. The bathroom will be constructed to ADA specifications. Tim Parks and Randy White have set the door and will be completing the work for the commode and vanity. Electrical outlets are to be added in hidden locations off of the middle aisle. New light fixtures are to be installed in the entryway and back of the church.
