Kobin Caddick	vote on funds for fume hood exhaust fan	Fume hood in Science needs a contractor to install a properly sized exhaust fan	The Science Lab area has a fume hood that was donated several hears ago, and we now have a quote from a contractor to finish the installation for $12,517.00 This price assumes we can use the existing roof penetration and 10" epoxy-coated galvanized steel ducting.   Discussion items: There's an AC unit located 12 feet from the roof penetration, so we need to find out if this unit exchanges fresh air from above the roof where it can potentially pull in fumes from the hood exhaust. We need to loop in the City of Carrollton building inspections department because local code may not let us put on a 10' exhaust stack without a matching 10' high fence around the roof We still need another contractor to do any roof work or flashing around the fan unit, and an electrician to install the 120 volt / 20 amp disconnect at the roof mounted blower. Notes, regulations, and code relating to the fume hood: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dHBcvkkBdmovBu5wH-Fl1XPcg3_BCaxB?usp=sharing See quote BJ-9521 Dallas Makerspace 6-13-22.pdf MOTION to approve up to $15k for the fume hood conditional upon: * code approval * landlord approval Moved - Justin 2nd - james vote - unaimous	Getting the fume hood running will complete the Science Lab Trifecta of doing Physics, Biology, and Chemistry at Dallas Makerspace	no	Justin Walker	James Henningson	Julie Harris, Justin Walker, James Henningson, John Fabrycki, Jack Smith
