The following items were discussed and actions assigned:

OVERVIEW

This was a virtual meeting using Zoom. Primary purpose and discussion was limited to documents detailing the requirements for Shack reopening as presented by Lou and his committee

Previous BOD Minutes

Motion to accept March 27 minutes was made by Jay S, second by John C, carried

Discussion on Waiver Requirement

The committee drafted a waiver to protect the club and its Board from lawsuits related to Covid 19 as well as other hazards related to operating and working on equipment or present at club activities.  It was suggested that the waiver would have to be signed before access was granted to the Shack.  Discussion included would the waiver hold up in court. It was suggested that it could discourage nuisance suits.

Motion by John C, second by Ralph, to associate the issuance of a shack key with the signing of a waiver. 6 Board members currently in attendance, motion carried.

Motion by Jerry, second by John C, to amend the previous motion to associate the issuance of a key to access the facility in place of access to the shack. Motion carried.

Discussion: Should we remove the broad reference to club activities from the waiver.  It was decided to leave as is.

Motion by Lou, second by George. Motion to approve the waiver language as is. No further discussion. Motion carried the waiver is approved.

Discussion of Phased opening plan and requirements:

Do we want to maintain vaccination status as part of our procedure. Aside from HIPAA issues, the Park does not require vaccination for access.

What are the Shack occupancy requirements? Original limit was three plus a Board member to supervise.

There is a specific set of Covid questions in the document, should they be eliminated or made more generic? It was suggested to remove the temperature and specific Covid questions.

Given the current status of Covid restrictions do we need to have both Phase 2 and Phase 3? It was decided to eliminate Phase 3 from the draft.

Lou and his committee will reorganize the document to reflect current Covid requirements in a more generic form and submit to the Board.

This discussion will continue at the Board meeting of April 25 at 10 am.

Tailgate: Walt informed the Board that we could have a tailgate party at the site if the Community Center on Powerline Road is still closed.  The airplane group apparently had a similar type of event.

Motion to adjourn by John C, second by Jay S. Meeting adjourned at 7:28 pm

Respectfully submitted

Mike Greenfeld K8BQ/ Secretary
