Jones noted Eide Bailly was unable to attend tonight’s meeting. Their presentation will be made
at the next Board of Trustee meeting which is scheduled for June 24, 2010.
Duane Thompson brought forth an issue that has arisen regarding the sprinkler system at
Brookview Manor. The system is tested quarterly and was recently inspected and passed
inspection on April 14th. A leak in the system was discovered later and upon further inspection
much of the system was found to have sediment and rust inside the cast iron pipes of the “dry
system”. Department of Health (DOH) has been notified and is aware of the situation.
Secondary fire protection is now in place according to DOH standard procedures. One estimate
for repair or replacement has been obtained and two more estimates are being sought. There are
dollars in the capital contingency fund of $200,000. A motion by Baker to give management the
authority to make the decision after verifying with DOH any time limitations and to work with
qualified companies. Booher seconded the motion. Motion carried. McKnight abstained from
voting. Thompson was excused.

the surplus operating room equipment. A recommendation from the Finance Committee to accept

Eide Bailly presented to the Finance Committee their audit for the 2009 fiscal year. Baker noted
one of the concerns Eide Bailly cited, regarding preparation of financial statements, is to hire a
firm to prepare the financial statements. Baker also indicated it would be too cost prohibitive to
do so and was not concerned about the deficiency noting it is common for entities of BHS’s size.

Construction Update
Oberg noted the water, sewer and drain sewer lines will be replaced. Twenty-Second Avenue
will be closed for one day to do the hook up to the main line. Mills Construction is coordinating
the closure with necessary city personnel. The south entrance and a portion of the parking area
on the south side will be blocked off for several days to gain access to the line, replace the line
and resurface the area. Phase 2 of 5 phases in the ED/Lab remodel is expected to be complete by
the end of July.
Ambulance Service Building and/or Support Service Building
Oberg noted the recently purchased lot on Yorkshire Avenue is being evaluated to determine if it
is feasible to build a second floor on top of the proposed building being considered for that
location. Parking code requirements will primarily determine what additional services beside the
ambulance could be included. A meeting will take place later in June that will involve several
board members and key people in the organization regarding feasible building plans based on the
size of the lot.
Spiritual Care Program

community to present the current program in place as well as obtain suggestions/comments
regarding spiritual/bereavement/grief service at BHS.
