Mr. Chairman: There are still people who are walking around to the back of the
building and some people were told to place their umbrellas in the front foyer and then
didn't have them when they came out.
Mr. Smith: Regarding the umbrella issue we've had some updates from
homeland security about umbrellas containing weaponry. We can't scan all the
umbrellas and perhaps we need to get some larger lockers where they could be placed.
Mr. Chairman: Some people are still walking around the building to go out.
What could we do to help with that?
Mr. Smith: We checked with the Fire Department and they have no problem with
us putting some signage in the elevators themselves as long as it doesn't interfere with
the operation of the elevator.
Mr. Russell: We could also put a sign up in the front.
Mr. Chairman: The security people could also let the people know as well.
Ms. Sims: I have heard them doing that when I've passed by that way.
I
Mr. Smith: We can also put a sign on the floor to catch their attention.
Ms. Sims: I so move that we do these things to help.
Mr. Boyles: Second.
Motion adopted unanimously.
ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
