Thanks Jimmy.
I was actually talked into going onto the EC (one of five). The minutes of the last EC meeting (which I was unable to attend) has a list of items “to be discussed within the next 12 months”. Most of these are general maintenance but some involve either changes to the building or significant expenditure and are being carried out without any discussions or meetings having been held. I've sent a couple of emails raising issues or asking for information which have gone unanswered.
At least on this one point, I can go to our SM and see what he advises.
