It now needs to be approved at that level.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>3) We&#8217;ve contacted 5 banks, mostly local, to see if we can get a loan against the house &#8211; -to help with renovation costs. We&#8217;ve had 2 offers and are weighing them. Currently the house is still in our name, however &#8211; dave and i are really wanting the house to be in Clearwater&#8217;s name.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>4) A small AmeriCorps crew has been\u00a0at the house\u00a0all week. They pulled carpet, padding and tack strips, linolium, staples, etc. They&#8217;ve dismantled the swingset, the shed, and trimmed the tree. Dave worked along side them most of MOnday and will be there today to haul the debris away. (A roll-off was secured for free &#8211; however they did not have the clearance they needed to deliver it.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>5) Linda has begun working on a &#8220;rack-card&#8221; for us. She basically got it started. I&#8217;ve looked it over &#8211; and trimmed down some of the wording but we would like input from those of you talented at &#8220;advertising&#8221; or who have opinions about advertising. P.S. The shelter needs it&#8217;s own business liscense and it&#8217;s own mission statement.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>6) We&#8217;ve ordered a metal Chimney piece for the top of the chimney that was crumbling.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>7) We had the electric turned on &#8211; (our name currently) have received tax bills and garbage bills, etc. &#8211; So lots of decisions to be made.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Personally, we are excited about the progress. . . .but also feeling overwhelmed and a little frantic for the need to share the load. This past weekend I attempted to start a list. There are many things that need to be done on all levels. For Dave, it means trying to do this inbetween sessions. For me &#8211; it means &#8211; weekends, evenings or grabbing a few minutes of my work time, etc. You get the idea. Grow the board, yes. But also time to roll up sleeves and decide how best to be involved.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Reminder:\u00a0 \u00a0next meeting to be on friday the 5th of August, dinner and evening meeting.. . . . . .patrick???<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>so here are just some of the happenings: 1) We&#8217;ve applied to the city for a change of status for the house: From Triplex to Emergency Shelter 2) We&#8217;ve submitted an application for a Vista AmeriCorps to the state.
