The Board did agree that our Maintenance Supervisor would act as general contractor which will reduce the overall cost of the project.<\/p>\n

The Organizing Committee would like access to some of the School Division\u2019s facilities, e.g., SVRSS gym, track, etc. The Board supports the Committee\u2019s efforts to host the 55+ games. The Board agreed to provide the facilities needed to the Committee.<\/p>\n
5. The Maintenance Supervisor provided his biannual report to the Board. The Supervisor provided the Board an overview of all the projects that have been completed since the last report. The consolidation of Minitonas School took up a lot of the Maintenance Department\u2019s time. The Board thanked Chris for all the work his Department did to make the consolidation a success.<\/p>\n
