(1) As for notes, we did have a few Under Board composition. We have numerous people who can no longer live in Clarington that are senior citizens because they can't get into any of the retirement homes that are in the municipality of Clarington, so our board feels that there needs to be an amendment to the bylaws that states the majority of individuals need to be living in Clarington, but any of the historical board members that need to move outside will be given honourable member status or something along those lines we truthfully don't feel that it is acceptable that because the municipality of Clarington doesn't have numerous retirement homes in our area where that I have openings that we should get rid of hard-working members on our board. (2) Under absences point 26 we feel that sometimes life happens and not notifying the chair 24 hours should not mean that they can't then come again. We have individuals who are looking after sick parents sick children have emergency jobs such as first responders that sometimes they can't give us that 24 hours so we would like it to say when possible members unable to attend a board meeting shall notify the chair at least 24 hours in advance of the meeting. (3) Under quorum, we would like to not have to cancel the meeting or have it be rescheduled rather to table motion for future meetings because often times there are still things that need to be discussed that don't require a vote for example, an event we are planning some new rentals where we need to make sure the hall is set up or The bar is cleaned up etc. etc. (4) Under relationship with municipality point 60 we would like to ask does that include janitorial services as well as bartenders for the use of the hall due to the fact that that is an expense to the board at that point. (5) The Board would like me to ask about the budget point 68 upon BOARD dissolution all assets, including bank account shall be transferred to the municipality and all business records shall be turned over to the municipality. Does this mean because it stated that we have to dissolve the board at every AGM so that we can vote back in individuals. Does that then mean that we will lose our bank account at our next AGM? b) Maintenance i) Can we request to get some picnic tables and benches for the summer? - Danielle will ask ii) The ice rink application has been filled out and will be dropped off this month. iii) The fire extinguishers have been updated and new tags are on them iv) We will need a new floor machine as the "motherboard" is not working. Larry will do some research and send out information prior to the next meeting for us to vote on. Marlene W. offered for Larry to go to her school and see the machines that she uses. v) The lines in the parking lot need to be redone. - Danielle will email the town about this. vi) Kathy, a member of our community, would like to come to the next meeting to talk about the importance of the accessible washrooms and what is needed there. vii) Could we add a changetable to the men's washroom or to the new washrooms. - Danielle will ask the town if this is possible. viii) There is a little water in the basement - Kyle will continue to keep an eye on it. ix) The grading starts on Monday, there will be orange snow fencing around the building. We can continue to rent the building; we just need to let the renters know. x) There is no signs of rodents c) Rentals i) We have rentals throughout the month and the fitness classes are back and running ii) We will need to purchase a few more things at the next meeting to ensure that we are following the not -for -profit criteria. d) Treasurer - Absent e) Secretary - Vacant - Danielle filling in f) Events -All i) Halloween Dance - October 26, 2024 we need a DJ ii) We would like to purchase a giant screen - Crystal will bring all the information to the next meeting and we can choose what we would like to purchase. iii) Board event December 7, 2024 - Dinner to be catered iv) Breakfast with Santa December 7, 2024 - Danielle will create a Jotform for this and then allow people to register for this event. v) New Year's Eve - Try to find a DJ - at the next meeting we will have information 6) Old Business a) None at this time 7) New Business a) Shed - we had two local people come and fix the shed.
