Other New Business
PDC budget Overview – Marcum shares a graphical representation of the funds available and how they are allocated to each building. Monthly building budget reports should now agree with building PDC records because of an adjustment to the process of how the expenditures are accounted.
HQTI Reflections – The trainings this year were successful with a smaller group of participants. All feedback was positive and plans are being considered for next year.
PDL Report – Building PDL’s will now give a monthly update as needed to keep the general PDC membership informed of progress and concerns.
