[Green] DuPont Grant Change

[Joe Baker]

In lieu of funding the Sustainability Forum, perhaps we could approach
Huntington Bank to discuss the placement of one or two car charging
stations (I don't know the cost of the units or the cost of installing
them) in their newly resurfaced parking area. If they are interested, there
would be advantages for the Bank and for FUUSM members. The project could
also serve as past and future compensation to the Bank for allowing FUUSM
to use their parking facility on Sunday morning.
Just a thought,
Joe
