Dr. Collins discussed with the Board the project scope and asked them to discuss how they felt about it. The discussed the financial aspects of the project and how we would get the $40k to start this project. They discussed the options of having it leased or if they wanted to own the units once they are installed on the property. They discussed possible locations for the units. The proposal is to put the units on our current student parking lot in the back of the building and divert those staff members and students to another parking area located near the secondary building entrance. They will continue to discuss the matter further at a later time due to an interruption to the meeting.
