DISCUSSION:

Capital Proposal for summer 2002

• It was agreed that no activity would be appropriate for tier 2 or 3 due to the relatively poor season.
• Tier 1 was discussed; it was noted that the board had approved $48,900 for the first 8 projects on the list at the March meeting.
• The cash flow statement was reviewed for all of Tier 1. It was noted that the capital spending was overstated by $20,000 as in-house labor was accounted for in the operation losses for May through September. Actual cash estimated at $300k will probably be higher as all expenses will not hit the books before year-end September.
• This recommendation will conform to the spending formula.
• It was unanimously agreed to recommend the board approve Tier 1 capital. Jamey will manage the details as to whether he will actually do all projects based on cash flow and time management.
