-* Power Hammer Vote-- approved. KB needs to do the paperwork.
+General Operations Applications -- they are going to meet in November and talk about procedures and getting things in order for next year.
-* Welding reimbursement timeline. The delay was auditing the check date.
+No one applied to be the lead, so we can circle back. Wanted to appoint the lead today to help choose other roles. Storage Manager for woodshop means Area Host support. Maybe at least one more Storage Manager. New systems for consumables.
-* Wild Apricot - for scheduling;
-*** lets' talk about checking authorization boxes. Either makes duplicate requests. What about giving WA access? Does it give ability to wipe out databases? Volunteer authorizer's hands are tied. Ron "wrote a program to do just that." Yea, Ron. He can do something where you type in name, and it saves it into WA. This is quite awesome. Currently a little out of whack when added new equipment. Ron will return to the project.
+MMT= Call for volunteers continues. Volunteers can contribute as little as one hour of their time.
-**separate projects- functionality for seeing auth events in calendar view vs/and/or authorization tracking
+Figuring out Industrial CNC leadership. Shopbot open spots.
-*** OK, so here are the options for auth automation, even including quizzes
-*** 4 ways
-*** event on google calendar
-*** event on meetup (problematic) /(calendar connects to our calendar)
-*** WA - has calendar, also public -- connects to app that tracks checkins-- *** 3 tiers, member discount
-***Canvas- canvas event --
-*** Dream is widget - pings WA or AD -- do you have this auth... can tie into actual machine.
+Composting area? A member who has a composting company. Would we be able to do the right thing with it? Like, no meat.
-*** So to look at this overarching issue from a project management perspective, what can we do in parallel. Can we make life easier for authorizers while we work on a web calendar that shows ALLLLLLL (every single one) of the authorizations scheduled for October.
+How much money is left in the kitchen budget?
-* Spitball - like a block party where 10 people have to endorse. We can talk about a future meeting. With new voting system, what are the dynamics or quorum and things passing. What will future trends show us? Can we do financial "load balancing" between the 9 areas. What if one area had 90% of the member vote budget.
+Kathryn B proposed reviewing the restructuring doc. Some discussion. Kathryn's concern is that the timing of the Board Nominee deadline (Oct 29, 8 PM) is the "exact same moment" as the vote results are announced. This issue was resolved during the member meeting and it was offered that the Annual Meeting could be moved. However, at the Member Meeting, a time shift of one hour was agreed to. This would give nominees 1 hour to change the position they are running for.
-* Dust collection - waiting on electrical
+Molly requested that the Board write about their board roles on Google Doc
-* incident needs us to write a DRC report.
-* Pet Policy - needs further discussion
+Area Host appreciation event
-* Jim B has a bill that needs to be paid, pls email it to expenses@... Needs to get card replaced.
-*** Kathryn wants award for most avand garde use of bullet points.
+Let’s schedule an offsite - Need documentation for new board members, documentation folders in order, board orientation
-* Reminder - something about authorizers for next week- topic unknown
+NOTE: Immediately after the conclusion of the Member Meeting and Open House, a leadership event was held, along with a discussion of the restructuring. A diagram on slack (and posted on the wiki in the future) illustrates the shift among officers and directors. That is the same night as the election event. Broad attendance is encouraged.
