Communication is key, during the breaks we have between these meetings talk to others about projects, work on things etc. etc.
Pro-tip for terraforming so you're not suffering. Just terraform the area around the place you're porting in. Saves more time, saves more lives.
During the days between the last building meeting and this one, the Kappa Village building/planning continued. Last Saturday we had an impromptu building bash, where we did the opposite of what purp wanted worked on the lower half of the village, which includes larger houses, more shops, factories, and an entrance to the mines.
In this building meeting we went back to the Kappa Village to discuss how we would light up the ceiling of the cave. Right now the way it is currently lit up is just a simple sea lantern in the stalactites, which is just a temporary way of lighting it up. Purp had the idea of having crystals hanging from the ceiling to light it up, but a lot of people agreed that the Kappa Village has the village look but not the "touhou" kappa touch. Touhou Kappa meaning how technologically advanced the Kappas are.
During the building bash I had an idea of having more modern lighting on the ceiling, I was going to make/show an example but then I lost internet. But I made/showed examples in this building meeting. I got the inspiration from cyber punk aesthetic, the idea is that the ceiling lights are attached to the stalactites on the ceiling, and there would be wiring connecting all the lights. Though not all the stalactites will have lighting.
Examples and inspo can be seen in the links below:

We all gave ideas and thoughts on different type of lighting that could be used for areas. For example Karu made fluorescent lighting with end rods for the factories. We also added pipes with running water that connects to the lake at the bottom of the village. I remember asking Purp to add more water to the village but I should have said more running water since the Kappas in touhou use water to power their things.
Despite all of that being done, this building meeting wasn't as long as the others since 3/4 of the leads for the build were busy. So this meeting was about 2 hours long today. And with that done the 75th building meeting came to an end.
