Rumney Library Trustees – Approved October 7th, 2015 July 25th, 8:30 PM This unscheduled meeting was opened at 8:30 PM, following the RHS Ice Cream Social, with Trustees Roger Daniels, Lorrie Eaton, and Stacie Winsor, as well as Library Director, Susan Turbyne present. Also attending was Tom Wallace, Project Overseer. The meeting was called to approve ‘Change Order #4’ from CCI regarding our building addition. Tom reviewed sketches for improvements to the lower lobby. After some discussion and viewing the area, Lorrie Eaton moved that we proceed with the work with the cost not to exceed $15,852.00 as proposed by CCI on July 22nd 2015 with a request that the new acoustical tile ceiling be raised to minimize the blocking of natural light from the existing windows. The motion was seconded by Stacie Winsor and passed. Tom reported that CCI had indicated that it would be cost effective to replace portions of the deteriorating concrete apron at the building perimeter adjacent to the new addition if it was done in conjunction with the installation of the new concrete walkway. Following discussion, Lorrie Eaton moved that we accept the proposal from CCI to replace the afore mentioned apron at a cost of $900 plus fees. The motion was seconded by Stacie Winsor and passed. Having no further business, we adjourned with a reminder that our next quarterly meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, October 7th at 6 PM. Susan Turbyne Library Director
