Elected official urges more maintenance support and facility upgrades
Summary
Elected official Holiday praised plant staff but urged discussion of part‑time mechanics and improvements to the maintenance barn, including cement and lighting, while board members agreed to develop PM paperwork for equipment.
During the meeting, elected official Holiday (speaker S4) said he visited the plant, praised staff for their organization and cleanliness, and suggested considering part‑time mechanics to handle maintenance workload.
Holiday told the board the maintenance crew is short‑staffed and proposed exploring a different setup or hiring part‑time mechanics to keep equipment operational. He also suggested improving the large barn with cement and lighting to better support maintenance work.
Committee member S2 and the chair discussed continuity as Kyle reduces his role; S2 said he plans to remain involved and will help train staff and provide information as needed. The board asked staff to assemble a preventive maintenance (PM) checklist and equipment service schedule to guide ongoing upkeep.
No formal motion was recorded on facility upgrades at this meeting; the discussion ended with a request for a PM sheet and further planning.
