read by Ed Mueller. The financial report was accepted.
Old Business:
The Rectory termite inspection was completed. Removal of the deck in the
backyard was recommended. A team of volunteers will be assembled to remove the
deck.. A trash bin will be rented to remove the debris.
New Business:
1. Sandra Mueller reported on the Deanery Meeting. Highlights included
mention that the upcoming Dioceses Budget has $200,000 in unbudgeted requests.
Details are available in a separate report, entitled, "Report from
Deanery", September 10, 2000 by Sandra Mueller provided to the vestry.
This report will be filed with the minutes and is available to all.
Nolan presented a number of photos of modular buildings. The intent was to
give vestry members a better idea of the features and benefits of this type of
building.
3. Discussion regarding the building expansion effort. The unanimous
consensus is that the function of a new building would be to provide
multi-purpose space. It would not be to create another sanctuary.
The Budget for 2001 was reviewed
The Field Education Committee is off and running under the leadership of
Lori Prince.
The Bishop is coming on October 15th.
