Commons WG 1/17
Attendees
- Ryan Caldari, Jenny, Stephen, Helen, Margaretha, Robert, David K, Resham, Niki
Agenda
- Ryan re: rollerskating rink in the ballroom!
- $10 door, $5 for renting skates
- Rose from Church of 8 Wheels has been advising, rents skates - Monday / Friday / Sunday
- Sign an indemnification agreement of non-liability at the door
- Looking into event insurance
- Rose has been doing this for years, says no one has complained about damage to the floors
- May want to have someone on the floor who can help with maintaining safety and helping folks
- 50 people at $10 each = $500 per night
- Concerns over building use change - would need to be billed as a one-time fundraiser
- Would probably have to be an 18+ event
- Ryan's going to find out more about insurance and email us, and reach out to the local roller derby teams
- Consense on fees for for-profit groups:
- disco room: $50/ hr, $150 for 1/2 day (4hrs), $300/full day
- Ticket booth room: $25/hr, $75 /1/2 day, $150/ full day
- Library: $25/hr, $75 /1/2 day, $150/ full day
- Classroom off library: $10/hr
- Basement: $45/ hr, $135 for 1/2 day (4hrs), $170/full day
- Margaretha: Bottom-liners could be incentivized by paying them ~10% to coordinate for-profit events
- Sarah: Need to remain affordable to remain attractive to the groups we're targetting
- Stephen: We don't really have the resources to please people with money right now
- Margaretha: Roles and responsibilities document
- Stephen: How We Organize is working on this
- Jenny: There's also this - bottomlining basics - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fsm4dn4NHRl8D9mYYKDQAhF-IHMsOjRM-MVnnH_lXUk/edit
- Robert: Those basement rooms need more work before they can be rented out
- Kitchen working group
- FNB wants to expand the kitchen
- It would have to be enclosed
- 4x6 walk-in cooler
- Need an itemized budget submitted to Finances
- David K is going to help Darin on the second FNB fundraiser, perhaps some of that money could go toward the kitchen buildout
- First priority is to bring the kitchen up to fire & then health code
- Backspace clinic day
- Happening quarterly, fill the space with practitioners - Omni Wellness Day
- Low- to no-cost workshops and classes
- First one in late April
- Wants to coordinate with BAPS to incorporate critical thinking
- David has a friend who coordinates weddings!
- Would have to limit loud activities in the rest of the building
- Niki: In general we need to be more vigilent on sound issues and other conflicts between events in the space
- David: Direct face-to-face conversation
- Niki: If an event is charging a door fee, we should have a bottom limit for how much they pay
- David: We should look at other places and see what they charge - Oakland Metro
- Robert: Perhaps we could do an 'Adopt A Room' structure for groups to focus on particular rooms and spaces that need work
- Event Rentals spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BXxNRMsfXNS93sUfToc_0iUwktK31EBUpnh6hVFwiVM/edit#gid=1736285254
