Meeting began at 4:05 pm at the Union Township Hall.
Present: Phil Mikus, Laura Coffee, Rob Bidner, Peter
Gallinat, Woody Woodruff, Russ Alwood, Margie Henry.
The report of the November meeting was reviewed.
Coffee reported that the estimated cost of mailing notices
for the Clean Up event will be approximately $2500; which would include two
2-sided mailings; the first being a post card, the second a more detailed
description of the event/rules/etc.
Alwood recommended we get the notice two months in advance to MACTV;
Bidner reported he could get friends to post and distribute the notice in area
apartments. We may be able to piggyback the event notice on other Township
mailings.
The initial budget request of $10,000 may need to be
increased for the additional publicity/promotion expenses needed to properly
get the word out.
Bidner reported he will contact Central Michigan office of
volunteers to have a notice of opportunity posted.
Gallinat reported he will be attending a grant writing
workshop in January.
Mikus reported he will prepare an draft outline of the event
and submit it to Manager Smith.
Lawrence reported in an email message that we have received
formal okay to use CMU parking lot 63 for the township clean up day.
Meeting adjourned at 5:00 pm.
