Pastor Bob opened the meeting with prayer.
- The Team reviewed the drawings and pictorial views that had been completed by Daryl Drake and by General Steel.
- The review of the exterior resulted in minor window changes; however, the Team accepted the overall location, size and shape of the structure.
- The Team reviewed the interior layout of the facility and discussed at length the location of the music room and office space (including the Senior Pastor’s Office) and agreed that pastor’s office would remain at its current location, but the music room should be moved to the new addition.
- There was a discussion regarding the potential for a book store area. Since the addition of a book store was not part of the Project Teams charter it was decided that it would require Session action to move in that direction.
- Additional work regarding the layout of the interior will require architect input. Daryl Drake has performed many hours of work, without charge; however to demand additional work without compensation seemed inappropriate to the Team. Given the Team’s satisfaction with the work provided so far, and with Daryl’s history and connection with the church, we were confident in his personal commitment to the successful completion of this project. Therefore, the Team unanimously agreed to recommend to the Session that Daryl Drake be hired to be the Architect of record for this project.
As a result of this meeting the following action items were agreed to:
1) Pastor Bob asked that a member of the Team contact John Bowman of Westminster Presbyterian Church regarding our building project. – Richard
2) Contact Daryl Drake about architect fees for the project and present to the Session for approval. – Dale
3) Communicate changes to the layout to General Steel for incorporation in the layout and receive a budgetary quote for the cost of the structure. – Dale
The next meeting will be scheduled when a joint meeting can be arranged with Daryl Drake.
A layout exterior view of the addition will be e-mailed, as an attachment to these minutes, when it is received from General Steel.
