  1. Discuss and Consider: Bay Door in the ATX Auctions Warehouse.

 

Staff explained to the board that the bay door in the ATX Auction warehouse has become a reoccurring issue – specifically with the electric motor. The electric motor has been repaired 3 times in the past few months. Staff stated that the door is able to be manually raised and lowered with the chain. Lena Minor spoke briefly and stated that even though the door is able to be manually raised and lowered, it takes almost 2 minutes to go from open to close and vice versa because the chain gets hung up on the electric motor gear. The Boards discussed whether to keep using the manual chain, repair the motor again, or check on a replacement motor. The Boards asked staff to collect a quote from Veteran’s Garage Door on a replacement motor and a quote to remove the motor and replace with a manual chain drive.

 

Motion made by Kenny Dry to table this item. Ken Arnold seconded the motion. Motion carried.
