Minutes

  • Sue gives financial update. YTD we are $4500 in the black.
  • Member count is 169 as of end of March.
  • Sue proposes a formal purchasing policy - the final policy will be posted on the wiki when the wording is finished
    • One fun new feature - an Intent to Purchase Form. This is for use when a czar wants to purchase a large item and is looking for a deal, they can be preapproved so that when a deal comes up, someone can jump on it and not wait around for a board member to give the okay.
    • Discussed whether, if a member makes a purchase for reimbursement, would Knox Makers reimburse taxes paid? Sue agreed to tally up the tax reimbursed for the near future to determine better.
  • Sean wants to buy pickled herring for the Hospitality zone.
  • Jondale added another thing to the agenda to ask how zones can ask for donations for very large purchases - like a laser?
    • Lets not always be begging the members for stuff, maybe each zone could have a thing that they're working toward - and the board should approve so Jondale can't go buy a full sized statue of himself holding a laser gun.
  • Went through the privacy policy that Issac drafted.
    • Billy pointed out that people being in photographs at the space is not listed in the privacy policy
    • Jondale explains what an octet is in regards to IP addresses
  • Next went through the new Camera Policy - this will be posted here in when the policy is written in completion
    • Is two weeks long enough to keep camera data?
    • What do we write about in what situations are appropriate to look at the cameras - maybe board has to vote?
  • It smells like pancakes in here because there are maple syrup donuts.
  • Tracy brings up some verbiage in the TN State Non Profit Act that we, as an organization, are possibly required to have a list of addresses of members and keep them on file.
    • Tabby has volunteered to look into what exactly is required for us to collect as an organization.
  • Intermission!
  • Andrew gives codes updates - he drilled a hole in the wall!
    • Billy got uni-strut and is working on putting them up
  • Andrew updated on grants stuff
    • Got plans stamped and resubmitted plans to city! Yay!
    • Andrew will upload plans to the Folder Folder in the cloud
