Delta Sonic:
Delta Sonic meeting was discussed. We requested that Harry Gilmore get the information from the Village that he said was available at our all-advisory council meeting as to our future ability to build if the property was sold. Mistee is waiting response from Delta Sonic to questions that came up at that meeting. Mistee will work on a summary of the purchase agreement and the information pertaining to the sale for a handout to the congregation.
