The financial audit is complete. A full review of the findings is still under way, but all went well with the audit.
Preliminary plans for the fall Stewardship campaign are being developed.
A sign up sheet was passed around to accommodate CLT members taking turns answering questions after service in the fellowship hall. Rod L. will take questions at our North campus.
Discussed hiring and firing protocols. CLT has constitutional responsibility for the "employment and supervision of this congregation". The details are murky. Mark R. offered to write a draft Continuing Resolution clarifying the CLT's role in hiring and firing. It will be discussed at next month's meeting.
Discussed preparation for possible tagging vandalism (It has been seen close to the HD campus).
Followed up on the request to do some rearranging in the fellowship hall in Hazel Dell.
Reviewed an asphalt repair bid for HD. The trees in the east parking lot were noted to be dying, and their roots are buckling the asphalt. Consultation by an arborist will be needed.
Discussed the goal of a permanent home for our Ridgefield congregation.
The most feasible option so far (renting space from the Ridgefield United Methodist Church) would require a different worship time. Ongoing discernment from the congregation is needed.
