Bookroom
troy has something to say

front door

 * they bought the wood
 * jake didn't want to buy a $1k button. yar says let's do it now to get reimbursed.

other doors

 * jessie will host another door party saturday August 8 at noon. several doors have been sitting around, ready to be rehung
 * doom doors need new hinges from home depot

bathroom

 * yar wants to mount the toilet ASAP, joe wanted to do tiles but he's gone.
 * easy tasks would be hanging the toilet paper dispenser, drywalling, mounting the rear bar

foyer ceiling

 * lots of conduit up there, rob wants to hook it up for running the fans
 * it can't just hang there. probably unsafe & illegal

permits

 * waiting on david keenan to give us "other legal contacts" he has. or should we find our own lawyers for this? we're flailing. no birds eye view. no sense of priorities.

vermin

 * Patrik is still catching mice - definitely not solved problem. Bought one extra electric mouse trap (they seem to work well).
 * apparently there's a rat upstairs that has been see frequently enough to have been given a name?
 * Patrik put up a few fly paper spirals in trash room and at Fermentation Station
