Hello all, we are almost finished with the repairs to the damage caused by the flooding from the storm. The walls have been repaired, the elevator running well again, floors back in shape and all of the damage caused by the water has been repaired. In addition, there are a few other projects under way:
• The large front door by the library has been sent out to a skilled restoration company to be completely restored. This project will include adding an ADA compliant push button for easier access to our building. This should be completed in the early part of January. Thanks for your patience with the temporary door!
• We have contracted with a local vendor to replace the windows in the basement level of the building. The new windows are ordered, but with all of the cargo delays, It will be early Spring before they are here and ready for installation.
• The exterior stonework near the back parking lot has been completed. New pointing and repairs to shore up the stone will keep us strong in that area for many more years to come. Stay tuned for more information on pointing repairs to the remainder of the church building.
• Our freezer in the kitchen has been broken for a while now, but like so many things, the part is on back order and we hope to have it up and running in the next couple of weeks.
• We’ve completed our Fall clean-up and all of the storm drains and gutters have been cleaned out.
Thank you to everyone that has provided input and support as we worked through the repairs.
