Please read The Target, Phase 1, and Phase 2a:Sweep and Clear before reading this. Now that we have a building that is clear of infected, its time to clean up house. I would assume it would look pretty messy inside. This might include infected bodies/blood, rotting food, ETC. Here's part B of Phase 2.
- Dispose of bodies and begin clean up of blood using bleach and water from river.
- Roof top gardens. (I have read discussions about rooftop gardens. I understand that they arent built to hold gardens. This isn't meant to be a huge source of food. It is meant to give my group something fresh to keep morale up instead of the same old canned food. Use the old vegetables and fruit as compost)
- Rain Catches (This will provide water for things like Drinking.)
- Cooking area on roof. (Using BBQ's, we will set up a cooking area on the roof. This saves the compound from being filled with smoke.)
- Set up Entertainment Area (This will be used for morale and is to be used when teams aren't on watch or sleeping. This will be filled with books, board games, and if power is available, TV's and Videos. This will need to be soundproofed as best as possible to drown out the noise of TV's.)
- Set up Medical Area. (This is supposed to be like a small doctors office which will treat anything from minor cuts to surgery if we need to perform it. The group will undergo checks every other day to insure no one is infected.)
- Set up a Gym (Nothing will be as important as strong physical fitness. This will include heavy things to use as weights, a bike converted to make electricity, ETC.)
- Set up teaching area (Here I will elaborate on the basic lessons I went through when still at the house. Using each guide and the others that I never went through, we will do daily lessons in a school type setting. This area will include desks, Pens, Notepads ETC. It should be made to look like a school room. *If power is available, I will use a big TV connected to my laptop to display info and the guides themselves which I have saved to a set of CD-R's.*)
- Set up Sleeping area (This will be constructed using shelves pushed up against a wall facing out to create small rooms. Imagine an E with the back part of the E and each part going off that is a shelf. Then in between are the sleeping areas.)
- Set up a Library (This is to be a quiet area where people can read and learn.)
- Set up church (Another quiet room where people may pray or perform other religious activities.)
- Designate some part of the compound as a storage room to hold the food, and clothes. Keep this under Lock and Key. The reason for this is mainly because 1.I don't want my group to exceed rations. 2.I don't want anyone getting hammered on alcohol. This will impair my group.)
- Rooftop Showers (Using water from the river running underneath the compound.)
- Latrine/Toilet (Still working on where to put this one :P )
- Build Inner Barricades (This is a second barricade going around the inside of the compound using Carts and shelves. This isn't meant to hold a tidal wave of infected but just to give us enough time to escape if the fortress is over run.)
- Categorize/do an inventory of food and make up rations list.
- Water Filter/treatment (This is used to treat the River and rain water. Bottled water will be used only for drinking while River/Rain will be used for bathing, cleaning ETC until the bottled water run out.)
- Collect all the money into one place. (I know this may be usless, but if the world pulls through I will have some money to begin with.)
