St. Mark’s Trustees and Finance Committee

A new Pastoral Charge payroll service is being developed for the United Church. We will try to be ready to implement it for the first of 2009 to avoid the duplication that would arise with a fiscal year split between two systems.

It was decided to place the baby barn for the mower on the manse property. Volunteer mowers were recruited to operate the new mower during the summer. A string trimmer (whippersnipper) was purchased for the places the mower can’t reach.

A doorbell was installed at the rear door to ring in the Minister’s office. This is to enable visitors without keys to summon the attention of whoever is in the office (without tapping at the window), so they can be admitted.

The charge for hall rental was discussed and it was decided to leave it at $50.
