**7. Business** 

1. (a) **Refurbishment progress to include** : 

   - Floor – These are now completed with the floorings laid as required. CS 

   - questioned the cleaning of them. 

Toilets – The toilets are now fitted and the hot water at the sinks much appreciated. The possible addition of a junior urinal may be considered at a later stage.  DL questioned the possibility of providing some hand rails in one of the ladies. 

Electrics – These have all been updated and the overhead lighting is a great improvement.  When the electrician comes to complete the kitchen we will ask for some more sockets and any existing ones to be changed to doubles.  The committee will mark the walls where they are required after this meeting.  EC had been and collected a cooker which was free just needed to be brought to the hall. We will ask the electrician to install this new one. 

Hall Decoration – We will have a working weekend starting on 25 February. Dustsheets will be needed and DL will bring her ones up to the hall.  Firstly the hall walls will be washed with Sugar Soap and holes filled before we paint. The skirting 



board needs replacing by the hatch.  GH had brought samples which we can try later.  The Lions Club of New Milton has awarded us £300 thanks to GH.  Brewers Decorator Suppliers have a community award which GH has applied for.   Hordle Parish Council saw our Facebook post and are happy to provide £500 towards a specific item for the hall.  GH asked for this to go towards work counters to be used for demonstrations and they are happy with this request.  New Forest National Park Authority will be approached and New Milton Parish Council by GH to seek additional funding.  The committee are happy with the blue gloss used on the loft door and will continue with this colour on the hall doors. 

Kitchen – The new sinks work well with the instant hot water supply.  The work surface between the kitchen and hall needs to be finished.  The cupboard doors were discussed and it was agreed to put them back up to provide a neat finish when looking through from the hall.  MD to speak to the kitchen equipment supplier and enquire about 1 x Stainless steel 4 feet long by 33.5 inches high, 650mm wide and shelf under table  2 x Stainless steel tables 4 feet long 33.5 inches high with shelf under and casters fitted.  Also enquire about cooking pots as there are none in the kitchen. 

The wall where there is damp was discussed and until it is dry we cannot repair the crack outside, but this will be repaired in due course. 

Car Park  We will wait for the car park surface to settle, but speak about the corner by the door which holds rain.  This and the French drain can be looked at later and we can contact Farwells.
