The Lift Part 2

The Lift - Part 2

Back in 2011 the Grounds Department rented a scissor lift.

This summer at the Middle School, it was pointed out to Edith that at the very top of the gym on the air duct work it is excessively dusty.

Each building has a one man lift, which doesn't get you all the way to top of the gym.  So it seems logical every so many years (7?) when the gym floor is to be sanded down in lue of just the normal finishing, that a decent lift should be rented as that sanding makes a royal mess.

It was also pointed out that a number of the halogen lights were out in the Middle school gym.  She called Thomas Electric (the Curriculum Director's husbands company), and she said they have their own lift, but it will not fit though a standard door.  And went on to state that it's odd that the mullion wasn't removable as many other places in the building it is.

Edith said she arranged with Dan Bins to rent a lift.  (Dan no longer works with Fred Rents, and is now with Sunbelt Rentals of De Pere.)

Thomas Electric shows up and the lift has problems, so they have to get another one.

There is a removable mullion on one of the Gym doors.

Some things never change.
