· Define exact space the OHMC is managing

SK – Legally binding (Negotiate with Chamber as to their responsibility)

NS – There should be considerable scheduling, because it’s new.

· 24 hour Kiosk at the Main Street Welcome Center

SK – Balcony railing needed to be kept
· Is balcony ready for use?
· Create new stairs
· Hand railings
· Handicapped railing
· All have been approved, but not completed
**What happens if we don’t have historical approval? Just do it. Don’t ask, don’t tell.

DM – From the punch list, is there anything in writing? We need to see it.

CS – There is a 51 Page Easement. Not sure who has that document. Maybe Ruth Taylor?

KK – There is also a 20 point schedule, she has these.

JB – Since we took the Grant, therefore we must comply. Must be in accordance with Easement.

DM – Chad needs to have a copy of the Standards from the Department of Historical Resources. Get a copy for OHMC. Talk to Chuck.

Discussion of flaking of paint/bricks on the Cottage Street side. Who is responsible?

MS – Emailed
“I got this from Joe Wiggett. It appears that there was $34,450 allocated for the year. Allocated seems to be the operative term, too. Not much wiggle room, from what I can see. Working on getting the rest.”

SK – What are the expenses year to date? If we know, there might be some wiggle room.
DM – Fine tune maintenance by zone.

JB – Believes there is only two zones. (The Building and the Venue)

JR – Are the doors to the OH section going to be locked during the day? What if people just want to look around?

CS – Yes, locked.
· Arrange for tours – once a day
· Tours arranged
· Given by volunteers
· Maybe through the Historical Society
· Bette Davis corner
· Daniel Remick
· Etc.

KK – May use the foyer for displaying, some worry about touching and wear and tear

DM – Lighting?
CS – Scheduling (On-line Google calendar) linked to the Town website. Asked if there could be an OH page?

DM – Preliminary Report on 5/26. Discussion whether that date is the BOS meeting. MS – Thinks it’s the 19th.
· MOU
· Review and comment on next week
· So many committees working on the same thing.
· Need to combine all committees to work together

Next meetings
May 12th – 7:00pm
May 19th – 6:30pm

KK – Finish MOU

CS – It will be good to have all parties agree on MOU and get approval.

DM – Need to get budget figures from Joe Wiggett. How is money going to be allocated?
