Ken concerned about air quality

  • Possible propane coming up from kitchen
  • Suggestion to use an air exchanger to deal with issue
  • Sent an email to members/bod with idea for something less invasive
  • Suggestion from peanut gallery to use a hepa filter of some sort
  • Possibly have a few different issues that require different solutions - best solution may in fact be an air exchanger - runs about $400

Outgoing process

  • Is an inventory necessary?
  • Best process may be giving members a chance to identify and claim items they want and then recycle of the rest.

  • How to identify wanted items? Stickers? Yes, Karen will purchase
  • Deadline to save items March 31, lots of reminders, then call recyclers
