From the desk of John Matyasik, Business Manager

·  Correction – proceeds from the Willowbrook Concert were donated specifically to the Handicap Entrance Project not to the Church Renovation Project as was originally published.

·  Buildings and Grounds – the following is a list of projects prioritized by the Buildings and Grounds Committee on May 3. These projects will be completed as resources are available. If any organization would like to take ownership of any of these projects, please contact John Matyasik at the Parish Office.

St. Pius X Facilities Projects

1.  Handicap Entrance – convert Door 6 at the northwest side of the church on Madison side to the new handicap entrance. Install new door with automatic handicap opener. Extend the parking lot to accommodate handicap parking in close proximity to the door. Close off original handicap entrance, move stained glass window from old chapel area and glass block window that area.

2.  Second Restroom – construct a second restroom off of the Shimanek Hall. Remodel existing restroom to make it handicap accessible.

3.  Parking Lot Driveway – repave entrance driveway off of Madison Street to slope to allow water runoff into the field towards the retention area. Install speed bumps to slow traffic behind the Social Center.

4.  Doors 5 and 8 – construct concrete ramp to eliminate step up to the doorway.

5.  Parking Lot Lighting – install additional parking lot lighting at Madison driveway between Rectory and back of church.

6.  Social Center Restrooms – renovate/update restrooms.

7.  Sanctuary and Church Lighting – research new energy efficient spotlight fixtures for sanctuary and new energy efficient light fixtures in the body of the church.

God’s Peace, John Matyasik
