Program Committee: SD reported that the April program is “Thermal Performance of Concrete Masonry” by Darryl Winegar of Midwest Block and Brick. He distributed a new list of programs for the next few months. CSI and AIA are planning a joint program on the Life Safety Code for June and it is still being planned to keep the cost down as much as possible.

Bylaws Committee: SD distributed the proposed revisions to the bylaws, but they will have to be approved by the institute secretary prior to our local chapter voting to approve them. The change “and local chapter” to bylaws article 3.1 is yet to be made but will be revised prior to sending to the institute secretary. The revised bylaws should be presented to the general membership for approval at the May CSI meeting.

Certifications Committee: JH reported that one person has indicated that he may register for certifications testing next year.

He distributed entry forms and sponsorship forms. His committee met last week and will meet again April 23 at Triple B doors. The tournament still needs sponsors, door prizes (ie, $100 savings bonds, tee shirts, golf balls, bottles of wine or liquor), donations, volunteers, and teams.

Technical Committee: JT reported that there has been no new information about the library collection.

North Central Region: No report. BM will represent the Central Missouri chapter at the national CSI convention.

The secretary position nominee has not been determined. JT announced that he will not be serving on the board next year because of an increased commitment as president of the AIA Mid-Missouri component next year. The election of officers is scheduled for the April 7 general meeting.
