• It was brought up by Marc to possibly put return spring hinges on the doors and locks that stay locked at all times so that only members can get in with their pool keys. No motion was made, but we will talk about it later as a possible winter project. Table for now until Winter.

  11/12/13 � Marc to follow up with Brad on estimate for bathroom painting.
  12/10/13 � The board has agreed to paint the bathrooms. Hinges and lock for bathrooms tabled for a later date due to not being sure if the locks and hinges are legal in a public pool.
  1/14/14 � The board has agreed to add the hinges and locks to Brad�s scope of work for a total cost of $750.00 with the painting of the bathrooms. Marc to let Brad know.

• Conversation regarding the pool with Jeff:
  • Quote for plastering the pool: $8760.00
  • Questions regarding what the health department were brought up by Jeff. They may make us add drains, rails, etc.
  • A Permit would be required.
  • A $600.00 fee from Jeff would also be added to the cost for servicing of the pool during the start-up period (i.e. brushing and chemicals)
  • Solar � Is it worth it? Jeff thinks we will only get about 3� for a few months out of the year when it is warmer. Jeff said he would talk to the solar company to see what they think the raise in temperature would be. Only 3�, or more?
  • Patching pool? - Jeff says it can be done, however, we will only get a few years out of the patching.
  11/12/13 Will be reviewed at next meeting.
  12/10/13 � The Board has decided to move forward with the plastering of the pool and a new boiler due to the disadvantages of solar. The costs are based on the following:
  Plastering = $8760.00
  Boiler = $3935.00
  Start up and chemical treatment = $600.00
  Plus cost for bathroom s to Brad = $475.00
  Total Cost for all of the above = $16,170.00
  Marc is the process of scheduling plastering with Jeff. Jeff is getting the permit. Health department is not an issue.
  1/14/14 � After further review Marc proposed that the total cost for the pool plastering, diving tiles, start up with Jeff, permit, and new heater is roughly $15k. Board was all in favor of moving forward. Marc to get the plastering company to start work and the plastering should be complete or nearly complete by the next board meeting.
