New Building Updates

There are a few more things the contractor is taking care of.

New Business:

Computer Virus Protection

After some discussion a motion was made by Sinclair to purchase a 2-year protection plan for one computer from Micro Trend for $49.99 and additional tech support for $40.00. Motion seconded by Wilson, 5 ayes, 0 nays

Printer:

The printer we currently have is nice but uses FAR too much ink. A request was made by the clerk to purchase a monochrome, laser printer. John found one on Amazon. Motion was made to Norval to purchase a Brother refurbished monochromatic laser printer/fax/copier and an additional ink cartridge for under $200. Motion passed.
