Volunteers at the Hubbardston Senior Center said a volunteer painter has nearly finished interior work and that new office floors will be installed after painting finishes. The group also reviewed plans for bathroom improvements and discussed immediate maintenance tasks to prevent further water damage to the building deck and sign.

Members said contractors or volunteers will install a new subfloor before finishing the two office floors. The meeting recorded plans to purchase a higher (handicap-style) toilet fixture and a small sink for a remodeled bathroom; the group discussed closing the small bathroom door temporarily and using other restrooms for events while work is completed.

Attendees raised a water-intrusion concern: rain runoff and missing gutters have created a path for water that could damage the deck and surrounding soil, and volunteers asked the convener to contact local gutter installers for pricing. They also discussed repairing and repainting a weathered exterior sign board.

On crawl-space moisture, members suggested a basic treatment (borax was discussed) and said a new subfloor should reduce future dampness. No formal contracts, procurements or external approvals were finalized during the meeting; volunteers said they would gather estimates and bring cost details back to the group for approval.

The meeting also covered operational constraints while work is underway: staging donated items in a container, shifting meetings if the deck is under repair and limiting use of certain rooms during renovations.
