1. GATEWAYS FACILITIES – THE “JOURNEY” 1

2. Agenda 1.Facilities Presentation and Purpose – Where we’ve been – Progress this year – A recommendation for your consideration 2.Small Group Break Out Discussions 3.Next Steps 4.Note: Authorization/voting comes later 2

3. STRATEGIC PLAN – OUR FACILITIES SHOULD: Support Our Mission and Vision Enable our key ministries and our growth initiatives by providing adequate space for:  Worship  Life Span RE  Social Events,Meetings and Functions  Administrative Offices Be safe and accessible Be welcoming Be well maintained and clean 3

4. Last Year, We Explored The “Three Options” Option 1 – “Stay and renovate” Option 2 – “Buy raw land and build from scratch” Option 3 – “Buy an existing building and re-purpose for church use” 4

5. JUNE 2012 DECISION: STAY! … but what now??!! 5

6. First - The Progress This Year Obtained a new ALTA survey for the property with elevations (topographical) – Electronic ‘CAD’ files, already in use by other professionals Schommer Engineering selected to design parking lot and storm water management Fania Roofing completed forensic examination of roof (more on this later) Multiple meetings with the Board 6

7. Reality Check – OMG! Our Needs Exceed Our Budget! Likely > $4 million total! 2 Story Chapel over “church basement” - $2 million (w/o elevators and bathrooms) Elevators and fire isolated stairwell - $850,000 Complete new RE Complex $1 million Parking Lot - $830,000 Roof and maintenance ?! 7

8. Guidance from the Board: “Success would be a plan to accommodate our long term success and not just the immediately foreseeable future.” Phasing is both acceptable and necessary. 8

9. Threshold Congregation Research on Facilities Priorities Visitors can always find parking spaces Restrooms are conveniently located and adequate for a crowd Space for infants and young children is clean and designed to meet their needs Ditto for youth Comfortable accessible seating available at every Service 9

10. Current Needs Assessment “Positives”“Negatives” Social SpaceLovely SMALL settings, BUTNo large meet/eat/great social space Serious restriction on our activities Not adjacent to kitchen RE SpaceBarely enough space for now Safety issues Usability Accessibility Administrative Offices … at least we painted it …Small and inadequate Lacks power and HVAC Accessibility; Safety; Maintenance Parking and bathrooms inadequate Poor accessibility Fire safety issues Deferred maintenance Worship SpaceEnough space for now …Out of date Hard seats Chronic problems w/ sound 10

11. Proposed Phase 1 Parking Lot – Because we have to – And it’s the right thing to do Roof – Ditto Remainder for discretionary spending Let’s explore each item 11

12. My Parking Lot Ministry Tanya Van Order Current peak usage is 128 cars w/30 on the street Only 75 spots in current lot Neighbors and Fire Marshal object to on-street parking 12

13. A Parking Lot … And So Much More Required Elements: Hard surface, curb and gutter Landscaping plan Lighting plan Storm water runoff management plan NO New Water Into Storm Sewers! Parking is a Regulatory Requirement! 13

14. My Roof Journey – Helene Ferm Root cause of failure per forensic report – Nails too short – Wooden nailing strips failing – Brittle tiles – Poor snow/water management 14

15. Roof Construction 15

16. Roof Options Conclusion – Repairing is not a long term solution – Replace w/tiles = $1M – Replace w/asphalt = ~$200-300K Budgeting $200K for this expense Will re explore historic preservation grant Interim stabilization $$ may be required 16

17. What else might we accomplish in Phase 1 ? Balancing remaining funds against our biggest needs: 1.Social space for public gathering 2.ADA Bathrooms 3.Do something for RE 17

28. Phase 2 – A new Sanctuary 28

29. Preliminary Parking Layout – About 146 spaces in upper lots 29

30. Process for Break Out Sessions Break into groups of 6-10 We will process 3 key questions – about 10 minutes for each For each question, your group should develop a list of its top 3 comments Your facilitator will record your results Results will be “grouped” by similar content for large group discussion 30

31. Ground Rules for Breakout Sessions Stay on topic Listen – allow people to finish “Step forward – Step back” Respect each other – any disagreement should be with ideas, not people No one of us is as smart as all of us! Everyone should feel heard and respected 31

32. Next Steps 1.Email additional input to imagine@muuf.orgimagine@muuf.org 2.Annual Meeting – 6/2/2013 1.Data summary provided at Annual Meeting 2.Confirm direction and pre capital campaign work 3.2013 Fellowship year 1.Granular presentation on proposal 2.Vote to proceed with Capital Campaign to fund proposal 3.Commence parking lot construction – summer of 2014 (best case scenario) 32
