This morning, Marylee and I concluded an hour long meeting with the Executive Director and Board President of the Fairbanks Rescue Mission. The meeting was called due to some apprehension about the vagueness of the “what we believe” portion of our bylaws. The initial write up of our stated beliefs were composed in a way…
In General: There are no dull moments. God is good! Networking: * Chamber of Commerce mtgs. 2/14 & 2/21. Each time, I’ve made 1 new contact. It is good to hear the stories that impact our community – directly from the agencies themselves. * 1 Rescue Mission staff mtg. due to several cancellations and traveling, *…

IN GENERAL: I am continually surprised at the amount of little things that keep popping up that need to be dealt with. It feels like the weeks disappear all to quickly. Often the days are filled with many unrelated items. . . but all important NOW! Last week I declared Wednesday morning would be ‘reading’…
IN GENERAL: I have been entirely consumed the last few weeks with ‘pleasing’ the city council and really getting that issue dealt with and dealt with properly. I am looking forward to being passed this and deal with some of the other things that have taken a back seat. Sarah and I finally have spent…
In order to finalize the purchase of the house on 10th avenue from Dave and Marylee Bates, for the price of $73,000, I make a motion that we “Fairbanks Youth Advocates” pay for the associated closing costs, which are in the vicinity of $700. There has been no required earnest money. An earnest money agreement…
Some thoughts on the communication aspect of FYA. Sarah is arriving soon and she will need a phone. In today’s world, a land line is good, but not really suitable as an only means of contact. What do you all think about getting a cell phone for FYA, which would be held by the person…

I make a motion that Fairbanks Youth Advocates proceed with the process of purchasing the building (per the offer by Dave and Marylee) to be remodeled and opened in January of 2012 as an emergency youth shelter “the Door”. Once we have a quorum vote on this, we can proceed with the necessary details of…
