2014/05/03 Omni Hackathon/Omni Membership

=Omni Membership Discussion=

General Consensus

 * Need good access control system
 * No space open w/out stewardship by a member of that collective
 * Need clear signage / plan for movement through space
 * Up to individual groups to decide how much / to whom access is given to dedicated space
 * Schedule another walk-through of the space before June 1st
 * No required over-arching Omni Membership
 * Post expectations and specific rules governing different spaces
 * Bring up all conflicts and incidents at the higher level
 * Good signage and constant communication between groups / at Omni level are essential!

Questions

 * When do we want to control access?
 * Is there an Omni Membership?
 * Tiered?
 * How do we share space?
 * Clear signage
 * Publicize costs
 * Access codes on members only spaces
 * How do we ban members?
 * How do we support bans by other groups?
 * Can we restrict access to certain spaces but not others
 * Is there space for the general public different from common omni collectives space
 * Are members from individual collectives who want to help organize / administer the building are granted full access? (Minus restricted individual collective spaces)

Concerns

 * Avoiding exclusivity
 * Keeping people from sleeping
 * Building Management
 * Individual Groups must be allowed to maintain Existing Membership Structure
 * Public School Membership is Free (in direct conflict with paid membership to the space)
 * Each individual group has their own definition of "members" already (or not!)
 * What do we do when people are out of control / drunk / on drugs / etc? Do we turn them out into the street?
 * Provide access to information on resources (shelters, hostels, etc.)
 * How do we restrict access to certain areas?

Ideas

 * General Omni Membership (free, perhaps)
 * Access to un-reserved common space
 * Paid / Donation Tier Omni Membership
 * Perks?
 * Do groups donate certain access to their spaces? How would this be determined? Feels problematic / difficult to determine.
 * Building / Space Access
 * Door code
 * Times of open access / Restricted hours
 * Collectives should have a member present during open access hours
 * Alliances between groups re: banning but bans are not universal necessarily.
 * Common space rules / policies / guidelines
 * Determine building administration / management needs
 * Levels of access (layers of an onion):
 * publicly accessible space
 * only accessible to Omni people? should ther be a distiction w publicly accessible
 * Bocce ball court access controlled after hours
 * Shared lounge between CCL and sudo
 * Some open CCL lab benches for food grade work
 * Cubicle wall with unlocked but clearly labeled door
 * Greenhouse structure for dust free work
 * Small BioSafety Level 2 with a locked door
