Capital Improvements at UUCT

Have you wondered how you can help the church grow physically, aesthetically or to improve mobility? Do you have engineering, architectural or interior design experience? Are you able to articulate and explain a vision of what you think will improve our shared spaces? Do you understand contracts or have time to monitor projects? What kind of talents can you share? What would you like to learn about at UUCT? What visions do you have for our buildings and grounds? Are you a doer, a planner, an artist or a scribe? All help is welcome.

A small group of UUCT members met in June to figure out some of the improvements that we thought were needed at UUCT. We reviewed the list and created a potential timeline for addressing the improvements. You are welcome to review the list and offer additional suggestions as we are at the beginning stages of pursuing these improvements.
