Consolidation Update

Travis shared that there are no new updates to consolidation but we are just holding steady with our current facilities. 

B.

Update on facilities across the district

Kit shared the following: 

  • Connected with the roofing company and we can limp through with the roof for another 2-3 years so we don't need to replace the roof 
  • Shared out that we have the septic working ok at Dimensions again and should hold for another 2-3 years 

Right now our facilities should hold for the next couple of years without major repairs until we can make a decision on a new building 

IV. Other Business

A.

Facilities Needs Plan

Kit shared that now that the roof company has said that the Dimensions roof should be all set for another 2-3 years and that was the biggest concern.

Will continue to pump and maintain the septic at Dimensions to keep it holding.

 

Otherwise should be good with Overman and CCA facilities.

 

 

Travis shared some ideas to make the old Ginnys space at Overman more usable with learners.

One idea is making a culinary arts space.

Kit shared some pricing he has gathered for a couple of different options for the space. Committee is looking at a TIF Grant through the town of Skowhegan.

 

 

B.

New Auditor Recommendation

Need to have a discussion and make a vote on a new auditor. Proposals were attached to the packet to review. 

 

Stephanie will review and put together a write up for the December board meeting to share with the board a recommendation for a new auditor and have the board vote.
