Motion 2:
Whereas the original clubhouse design approved a number of years ago is no longer necessary to meet the requirements of CFGPA, and this design would cost approximately $1.2 million to complete, it is moved that CFGPA proceed with renovations in accordance to a plan that would see the work completed within the current clubhouse footprint (attached).  Previous authorization for a mortgage up to $500k would remain in place with the total cost of renovations not to exceed $650k.
