Church Council Members,
As you may know, a major revision to Trinity’s official Building Use Policy was developed by the Trustees and formally adopted by the Church Council in 2007. Now the Trustees have formally developed an update to the Policy and Charlie Yund has agreed to present that 2014 update to the Church Council for formal adoption, hopefully at the upcoming March 17 meeting.
Attached is a copy of the 2007 Policy marked up with strikethroughs and red-letter additions to highlight the CHANGES, which are all relatively minor. A second attachment briefly explains the reason for each change. A few minutes spent reviewing these attachments sometime BEFORE the meeting should give you a very clear picture of what you will be voting on. A clean copy of the updated Policy, already approved by the Trustees, is also attached for official adoption by the Council.
For your information, Bobbie Cap and Bob Kaiser, the two remaining members of the official Use of Building Committee (Janet Garrison has since been added) generated the updates as experience had shown to be desirable to clarify wording and correct omissions, without changing the original intent of the Policy. The Pastor and all other members of Trinity’s Staff reviewed the first two attachments, with no comments, before the Trustees made the changes official.
I will be happy to answer any questions you may have, and the Use of Building Committee will carefully consider any suggestions for improvement of the Policy--not limited to the update you are being asked to adopt at this time--that you may offer.
Bob Kaiser
(THE REVISIONS REFERENCED WILL BE AVAILABLE TO VIEW AT THE MEETING. THE FORMATTING WAS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE BLOG!)
