Committee Reports:

            Facilities:  December pool issues. Lynden sheet metal is now doing service in the pool. Light in spa room had an issue. There may be a roof leak in the women’s restroom that does not appear to be condensation. We will get Nolan to look at it as they put the roof on. Felecia will call Nolan on Monday. Ralph discussed water piping issues where there have been freezing in the cold weather. Ralph discussed looking at re-piping these units. He has access to an infrared camera where we could look into the walls. No damage to building 1 that we are aware of. Tom is going to be working with Felecia to get keys figured out. Tom has also been working with Cathe to get the emergency sewer procedure figured out.
