STEPHENSBURG UNITED METHODIST

CHURCH


6/5/07



On June 5, 2007 the Trustees meeting was held. In attendants were: Willie Nichols, Dana Sprinkle, Nelson Burnet, Larry Goodman, Don Sexton, Gary & Dian Stillwell, and Tena Gore.


This meeting was called to discuss about removing of the stumps and about the rain water

that is going towards the church and into the basement.


Tena called the meeting to order and turned the floor over to Larry Goodman, who, had talked to his friend Dull Peterson about the drainage problem and the stumps. Dull said that he would come and remove the stumps and level out the backyard of the church for the sum of $3,000.00. Dull also said that if some of the men would help that he could reduce the price. Nelson Burnet and Larry Goodman are going to help with this project.


The members then went outside to look at the backyard and Larry explained what work that is going to be done. Stumps will be removed, the backyard will be leveled out then the rain water will no longer be going towards the church basement. A motion was brought before the Trustees and was pasted. In conclusion, this project would increase parking with extra dirt, the draining of the rain water, and future development of the church.


The Trustees are going to address the ADD Board Sunday, June 10, 2007 about this project.



It was also discussed about moving of the electricity pole. A man with KU came out to the church and talked to Don about moving the pole. The gentleman said that to move the pole it would cost $1,000.00 - $1,500.00. It was discussed that we could probably get this done cheaper. Larry is going to talk to Joe Yates to see if he may be able to do it cheaper. This project was tabled until a later date.



The next order of business was cleaning of the pews. Summit had theirs cleaned and it cost $12.50 each pew. The cost for our pews would be $375.50. The Trustees decided that this was something that needed to be done. This will also be brought be for ADD Board.


Last order of business was the painting of the basement. Tena Gore is going to supply the paint and supplies. The UNYF is going to do the painting. This will be done sometime before school starts back. For right now it will only be the base coat.
