Buildings & Grounds Committee

The Buildings & Grounds Committee is a standing committee dedicated to the stewardship of our parish property. Our mission is to ensure the safety, functionality, and beauty of our facilities through proactive maintenance and thoughtful planning.

Our Responsibilities

The committee identifies the physical needs of the parish and makes formal recommendations to the Parish Council. Key duties include:

• Property Oversight: Conducting periodic inspections of all parish buildings to evaluate safety, security, and necessary repairs.
• Project Management: Maintaining architectural plans and drafting specifications for remodeling, new construction, and repairs.
• Contracting & Bidding: Soliciting and reviewing competitive bids from contractors for goods and services.
• Facilities Policy: Establishing guidelines for the use of parish facilities and ensuring that rental or lease agreements comply with State laws and Archdiocesan norms.
• Volunteer Coordination: Working with the Stewardship Committee to maintain a "Time and Talent" roster of parishioners willing to assist with small projects.
