Boosted clubs who lose their Boosted status may continue to meet as Clubs or Area Clubs. The Club Host will no longer be eligible for waived membership dues. Infrastructure and tools built in space under stewardship by an Area Host and not explicitly registered to a Member become part of the Area, and are subject to asset removal by the Area Host. All projects are subject to normal red ticketing and tidy space policy. Infrastructure and tools built in an area not covered by an Area Host and not explicitly registered to a Member are property of PS:1. Projects are also subject to tidy space policy.

In addition to its responsibility for the financial health of the organization, the Board is responsible for organizing Areas and appointing Area hosts. In the past it has handled disputes between members until they passed responsibility for that to the Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC).
In addition to its responsibility for the financial health of the organization, the Board is responsible for organizing Areas and appointing Area hosts. In the past it has handled disputes between members until they passed responsibility for that to the Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC). Delegating ancillary tasks to committee is a prudent practice so the Board can better focus on its core responsibilities. The Committee for Club Oversight (as stipulated in the [[Bylaws#article-viii | Bylaws on Committees]]) must have two or more directors as members, and a majority of a committee’s membership will be directors.
 
Club Oversight can grant waived membership to the Club Host, and can grant a Club designated space that is not the responsibility of an Area Host. If the Committee has been granted funds by the membership to distribute to Clubs, it can also grant any amount of that budget to a Club Host for Club use. Club Oversight may also make recommendations to the Board to disperse funds to Clubs. It may also write membership votes to establish Club funds.
 
Not all Boosted Clubs will be granted funds, space, or waived membership for the Club Host. While there should be no expectation that each Boosted Club will be treated the same, the amount of support in terms of the scale of area granted or funds allocated should be influenced by the following criteria:
 
'''Size''' Clubs that hold events that regularly and consistently have more people in attendance should receive more resources than Clubs that have lower attendance, all other things being equal (AOTBE).
 
'''Frequency''' Clubs that hold more Boosted-qualifying events on a regular schedule should receive more resources than Clubs that meet less frequently, AOTBE.
 
'''Publicity''' Clubs that make efforts to attract more attention to their activities and by extension Pumping Station: One should receive more resources than Clubs that make less effort, AOTBE.
 
'''Documentation''' Clubs should have a page on the Wiki under the Club name. Currently Clubs are tagged with the category [[:Category:Interest_Groups|Interest Groups]]. Clubs with a better curated wiki page should receive more resources AOTBE.
 
'''Cleanliness'''
 
'''Signage'''
 
'''Seniority'''
 
The Committee will be transparent. It must report all of its decisions to the Board, and those decisions should be noted in the Board minutes.
