Board hears report on lawn, window repairs and staffing limits around events
Summary
Staff reported ongoing lawn maintenance and continuing problems with wind and dust entering Paleo Hall windows; the board also discussed staff-hours constraints and county rules limiting overtime during events.
Staff updated the board on maintenance and staffing matters, reporting ongoing lawn work and continued wind/dust infiltration in the Paleo Hall windows, which may require professional sealing or removal and reinstallation of double-paned units.
S1 said she has contacted local glass shops but has not yet found contractors able to reseal the windows; she noted the work could be substantial and suggested hiring professionals. S1 also discussed staffing during events, saying she can keep exhibits open until 5 p.m. but cannot regularly extend hours because of overtime restrictions—"Shannon told me I absolutely cannot have go overtime even for MCOCOM." Board members discussed budgeting options and whether a single annual event would trigger ongoing overtime obligations.
The board asked staff to continue outreach to contractors and to coordinate volunteer schedules, and encouraged staff to work with county payroll/HR to clarify overtime rules in advance of event weekends.
