Minutes:

Local college reach out update: Michelle and Kris have left messages for local colleges about getting contact information to start getting involved in job fairs hosted by the school - not the employers. Currently waiting on call backs. The next job fair was too close to this meeting to have us be involved. Committee very happy with the turnout of the first quarterly maintenance breakfast. Some topics for the upcoming meetings are: customer service, communications with office staff and residents, basic fair housing for maintenance - work order scripts and learing what you can/can't say to residents and on written work orders. Do we want to email Coastlines to the maintenance database? Include special constant contacts on the Golden Plunger winner or important hot topics (light bulb and corded blind changes?) 

Next quarterly breakfast and Golden Plunger winner - 12/7 from 8a-930a. Start marketing GP nominations
