Notes from Annual Membership Meeting:
The meeting was held at 1:00 pm on February 12, 2023, at YANA.
The building will have new insulation installed this summer. It will require the building to be closed for a maximum of 3 days. The porch will still be available and an A/C Porta-Potty will be on site.
The board has approved a plan to renovate the kitchen and all 3 bathrooms. We are currently looking for licensed contractors to bid on the work. Contact Jim B. (781-496-8569)
The coffee machine is working properly again but will be serviced to insure it continues to do so!!!
There was a concern about the generator failing during the hurricane. It was an electrical problem caused by excess demand that over load a breaker. It has been repaired and it was noted that the generator is serviced annually.
