Nov. 19, 2015 meeting minutes were reviewed and accepted. The financial statements were reviewed and approved by consensus.

Old Business:  The new signs for Hwy 24 are ready and Marv will get them put up.

 The handicap restroom has been put on hold for the time being. Dave, Marv and other volunteers will get to work on it as soon as they can.

 Dave spoke with Brad Best about the mold in the mothers room, sacristy, closet and confessional. They believe it is caused from the moisture from the plaster and paint during the church renovation. Dave has been using dehumidifiers to help reduce the moisture. This solution seems to be working and the dehumidifers need to be emptied daily. The council approved a purchase of two more dehumidifiers one for the church and the second for the rectory basement.

 Dave contacted Panos Farm Supply and Ken take a look at the existing windows and submit a bid. Dave believes Alliant Energy has a rebate to help cover the cost of replacing the windows. Dave and volunteers plan on installing the windows.

New Business:  There was a sink hole in the parking lot that Dave has filled in with rock. Dave plans to use the remaing rock to square off the parking lot. The council appreciates the donation of rock from Dave and DiAnne to the church.

 The ice storm damaged some trees and Clair Carolan will use his boom truck to help Dave with the removal of hanging limbs. The awning in front of church also has some damage from ice, Dave will look into this for replacement options.

 Fr. March will contact current finance council members to see if they wish to be reappointed for a second term.

 For the 2016/2017 term the officers will be Leon Kipp-Chair and Loren Kriener-Vice Chair.

 The Spring Chicken Dinner and Kolache Bake’s net profit is $12,344.72 this is up $704.70 from last year. Fr. and the council appreciate all the work from the volunteers and committe members that helped. The next council meeting is TBD.
