Agenda

Old Business

• Finances
  • We have dropped in the number of people who were contributing, this is going to set us back at least a month if not more
  • We made the mistake of originally stating that we were starting dues
  • Dues imply a sense of "you must or else" and we don't want that
  • We need to attempt something of pledges (i.e. I pledge X amount of the next 12 months) by informing everyone that we will be discussing with each if and what they can possibly pledge one on one
  • We need to continue to discuss the need of money at every meeting until everyone understands how vital it is
  • It comes down to the fact of how many people are actually there to try and obtain a space, if that is no longer of interest to people then why bother with the group since that is what we started it for
  • Everyone in the group needs to understand the budget necessary to run things and needs to be involved in the choosing of a space
  • If they know of a realtor to contact then they need to get the info to us
  • If they know of a potential space then they need to get the info to us
  • When we are looking at spaces, we need to let everyone know so that if they wish to show up, they can join in on viewing it or at least we need to make sure it is documented heavily to come back and show everyone
• Bylaws
  • Discuss any feedback by members from the last meeting regarding the bylaws.
