Bloominglabs Annual Meeting 2020

Attendees (@ [timestamp]):

Notes:

Consensus refresher:

No “nos”, or full, positive agreement

Example: Membership emails

When emails go out, people are asked if they disapprove of the membership. If they don’t, the member is approved. This counts as consensus.

Membership refresher:

Members can join through attending 3 public nights and then applying

Workshop attendance can also count for this number.

Kitchen

  • There’s yet another group that’s interested in it in the event that we’re not using it
  • Question: Are we using the kitchen enough to justify the cost of the kitchen?
    • Various pros & cons to the argument, but there’s a general need to see how much we use it
  • Equivalently $500/year or $60 a month
  • Would be a need for a private meeting space in the event that we dropped the kitchen from
