On behalf of the Temple Beth Ami Board, I want to take this opportunity to sincerely thank everyone who attended our Town Hall meeting on April 9
The high level of interest and engagement you expressed regarding what's happening at our synagogue, the suggestions you provided about what you'd like to see happen going forward and your feedback on some of the suggested enhancements we provided was particularly gratifying and encouraging.
Based on the input and discussion you provided, here are some particular things that we've agreed to pursue.
We will:
· Accelerate the security upgrade process by establishing firm deadlines for getting bids required for the fencing and related components.
· Communicate the progress and milestones of all aspects of the security upgrade project to TBA members until it's complete.
· Upgrade our membership dues process to a "sustainable membership" structure, in which our dues closely reflect our anticipated operating expenses each year, with the dues for each member reflecting their portion of these operating expenses.
· Provide a comfortable and inviting social area in the courtyard area for parents or other family members bringing their children to religious school programs.
Each of you are always encouraged to provide your ideas, suggestions and feedback to any of us on the Temple Ami Board. Most importantly, we want and need your participation, ideas and expertise to make these things happen! If you have questions or ideas on how you can best participate, please let us know.
The Temple Beth Ami Board members wish you the very best for a happy Passover!
Best Regards,
Don Cogan
Board President
Temple Beth Ami
