*Board started in a closed session | |||
*We have been trying to recruit a new MMT lead, no one wants to do it | |||
**Nick will keep handling Freskdesk | |||
**Joe Mertz will handle Scholarships | |||
***We need to give him access to relevant stuff | |||
**Storage will be fine by itself | |||
**ID checks will continue to happen organically | |||
*We got some answers from Tony on our building purchase offer | |||
**There is much back and forth about a new payment schedule and balloon payment amount | |||
**Carl will prepare a new payment schedule and share it with interested parties to review | |||
**Carl will talk to real estate lawyer, find out how much title insurance will cost and whether or not we need a survey | |||
**Nick and Jennie will continue to pursue an insurance quote | |||
**Ian will prepare a list of questions, like title insurance, surveys, title company, closing costs, lawyer costs and send them to eric. eric will then contact our real estate lawyer. | |||
*Carl was at Chase today, they were supposed to call back. They never did. | |||
**That person was supposed to call James some weeks ago, never did. | |||
**The board acknowledges that chase sucks | |||
**Nick thinks we should find a new bank, but the last time we tried to make carl do that carl resigned. | |||
*James notes that last time we sent the lawyers (not our real estate lawyer) a list of questions it cost $1,100, so we shouldn't ask our lawyers too many questions just for fun. Real estate lawyer is mostly doing work for free. | |||
*Sky has unrelated stuff | |||
**First, she needs carls help, because stripe is auditing our account. carl has to log into stripe and link chase. | |||
***Carl will do this within a week | |||
**Stripe dispute resolution - every dispute costs us $30. We usually lose anyways. We can set up an automated thing that will automatically dispute the disputes. | |||
***Sky wants permission to allow Stripe to automatically refund when they want to, during disputes. This reduces the per-dispute charge and protects our dispute record. That sounds excellent. | |||

**The vote passes | |||
*The board votes to disband the Membership Management Committee | |||
