Jim said there are 2 major items remaining: the wheel chair lift in the auditorium and the cracks on the outside of the building.

His suggestion is to order better quality letters and have Chartwell's welder weld them on a piece of metal that will be bolted through the brick. They will much less flimsy letters. Joe said to make sure there is no space between the letter and the steel they are welded to. Everyone agreed it sounds like a good solution.
