Paradise Bay Activities Committee
Minutes of March 30, 2018 Special Meeting to Purchase Computer
The meeting started at 9:30 a.m.
Peggy asked for a motion to approve the purchase of a printer and computer along with the programs and accessories to manage the financial records of the Activities Committee. There was a lot of discussion about what brand to buy and where to buy them. Peggy stated that she and Wendy had gone to Best Buy to get information about the type and price of computer, printer, and accessories we would need. The recommended computer, printer, DVD drive, Quickbooks, and Microsoft Office came to approximately $1,100.00 without tax or extended warranty. It was, also, mentioned we should get ink cartridges, paper, and some type of backup such as thumb drives.
Jim G. made a motion to purchase the computer for the financial records for the Activities Committee not to exceed $1,500.00. It was seconded by Linda R. It passed with a unanimous vote.
Brenda O. was a little concerned about the back lash of doing this at the end and not having everyone from the Activities Committee here. There were 14 members in attendance which was the same amount as the last regular meeting. Peggy stated that the reason we had this meeting was because we needed to get the computer purchased and set up before everyone leaves for the season.
The meeting ended at 10:00 a.m.
