Discussion and Action re: Office
Computer needs The office assistant has been hired and has started
work. An evaluation of the computer needs in the office indicates that
the third computer is the only one available to the assistant. This
computer is short on hard drive space and memory. Upgrading that and
changing the operating system would cost approximately $400. Since it
was purchased in 2000, question is would it be better to purchase a new
computer? There is money in the 2007 budget for such expenditure.
Consensus was that since it was budgeted it would be ok to purchase a
new computer.

second by Doug Yelk to pay the bills with the addition of the
handwritten items.
