Trustee Report for November 2012 Council Meeting


Trustees Report for November Church Council meeting.

The Trustees have authorized me, Bob Kaiser, to represent them at this meeting.  I will offer the following motion: “This Council hereby adopts as official Trinity policy the document titled ‘TRINITY UNITED METHODIST CHURCH (TUMC) Official Policy for the Use of Property and Facilities’ dated October 2012 and duly approved by the Board of Trustees on October 17, 2012.”

This document is an update of an October 2007 version of the policy.  A committee consisting of Bobbie Cap, Pete Faruga, Martha Martin and I were the principal authors of both the 2007 policy and this 2012 update.  The recent update is largely clerical, consolidating previously separate Policy, Fees and Application documents into one and clarifying wording throughout.  The procedure for approving Applications by outside users was changed somewhat.  Perhaps the most substantial change is that the fee for outside use of the gym was raised to $20/hr, from $10/hr. (Current users may continue paying the lower rate for one year.)

Charlie Yund emailed a review copy of the policy to all Council members on October 18, 2012.  It elicited comments from three people on four subjects, all of which were addressed to the satisfaction of the questioner.
