COUNCIL MEETING SUMMARY
May 21, 2026
May 2026 Council Summary
Meeting was called to order at 7:05 by Vice President Larry Parson.
Randy Blackorbay led devotions on an excerpt from John.
Memorial Garden: Joan Hermanson presented an update on the project. She has created a binder with all the information on the project. She recommended a committee to take over to manage, as this will be an on-going project. First Aid class conducted earlier this month was reviewed and received praise by the council members that attended as being valuable. In other facility updates, the HVAC installation has been completed on budget. The installer was commended for the high detail and good customer service. Discussion on the outdoor sign continued from previous months and evolved into a discussion about projects that may be higher priority such as addressing the rubber roof that is past its life expectancy and the staining on the exterior stucco. Property Commitiee will be asked to weigh in on priorities.
New Member installation took place since last council meeting. Council officially approved them as members. A big welcome to: Tom and Bev Anderson, Ledin family: Sondra, Logan, Rylee, Leila, Julie Kasera, and Barbara Poole!
In new business, the Safe Child Policy was discussed. Feedback will be received from CYF with the target to have council adopt a policy prior to fall resumption of activities. Building Use policy was also discussed, based on some recent damage to the handicap button by a renter. (Repairs will be paid for by the renter.)
The Pastors provided updates as well as committee liaisons. Financial update was given by Rick Strub and report was approved by council.
Meeting adjourned at 9:26 pm.
