@Leslie - we'll be working both days & likely every day to some degree
until it's done
i think for proof of building improvements, we could gather our building
permits (wheelchair bathroom, entrance hall, ccl) & home depot receipts to
prove diy work

Thank you for this, Roberto!!
There's a home depot egift card with $200 still on it, I believe, from the
water heater purchase. LMK and I'll send it to anyone doing runs. I can
also do one this evening. Marc is on his way over to help with sudo, and is
making some calls to folks who may have missed the email. Some SPAZ folks
will be coming tomorrow to do basement cleanup and painting. I'm working on
the books for the prop tax exemption app today, but will be along tomorrow
afternoon to help. also gave the heads up to village folks, though they are
busy building this wknd so their cleanup will probably happen on weekdays.
marc and i just ordered the fabric for the awning - it should arrive by
the end of the week, either Thursday or Friday - please be on the lookout
for a package from Big Duck Canvas.

@yar - i can't make a sudo mtg this
wednesday, but would love to see sudo
meetings happen again! additional to do items for sudo include: confirming
one or two new, consistent delegates; fundraising (i'll send a financial
report by end of the weekend, but suffice to say we are not currently
bringing in enough to cover our expenses (roughly $2100/mo).
@Autonomous -
We do have that:

- feel free to contribute by gathering more quotes!
I'll reach out to Genesis Fire today for our annual fire extinguisher and
exit light upgrades.
Since much of our maintenance is DIY, it can be hard to demonstrate
proof. Do folks think a timeline of work done since buying the building
would suffice? If so I can work on that, too.

The insurance inspector says you need to
"*provide proof of building
updates and proper maintenance". *What are the building updates and
maintenance items that the insurance company is referring to? Or is this a
general statement about the condition of the building?
If you have a list of rehabilitation and maintenance items needed such
as a new roof it may make it easier to obtain financing and/or funding on
that basis. The 2022 balloon payment could be added-on.
