Addendum - surveying the ground-floor sudo area adjacent to the stairs up the ballroom, it’s evident more receptacles are needed here than just for the fridge..

Therefore I’m amending this to expand the number of receptacles from one 4-up box, to three boxes (twelve outlets total). 

I project this would increase the cost by at most ~$200 if hiring an electrician, so budget would be appx ~$400 total. 

Lmk if there are any objections?

Best,

Thanks Yar. I support big dreams and i don’t want to entrench the status quo, but I’m hopeful that adding one outlet to this area wouldn’t itself hinder any future bigger renovation.

For my part all I’m trying to do is get sudo and the rest of omni to a totally minimal point where it doesn’t have to worry quite as much anymore about annual building inspections or code violations. I support bigger renovations too - I suppose I view getting back to this core baseline as one first step along that path. 

Are there any other concerns or objections to moving forward on this modest building improvement? 

Best,

I had big dreams for renovating and rearranging that whole area, so I
hate to see us spend money entrenching the status quo. But I guess
it's the most responsible thing to do since nothing is likely to
change this year. No objection from me.
