The final form of the proposal was for a split of high value items being stored in a locking cabinet and o
ACTION: Contact Bob to find out if he compiled a list, then get a thread going ont he board list so we can vote on that in the future.
Meeting with Spilde - Clif
Clif met with Mary Spilde, the president of LCC. Also in the meeting was Pete Sorenson. They spoke about the possibility of LCC making the old downtown center available for a group of like-minded non-profits. She has been receiving mails from many groups separately on the same subject. She plans to host a meeting in February bringing all of the groups together to discuss a possible collaborative effort with the space. CLif has been asked to help coordinate a list of invitees.
Ms. Spilde is not certain they want to maintain control of the building. She believes it possible that a non-profit might take control so that LCC can get out of there.
