Agenda

intros

  • We are front-loading most of the meeting into these intros! Now is the time to put forward any of the following things, many of which used to have their own meeting sections
    • introduce yourself: name, pronoun, affiliation, if you're a delegate
    • do you have any unmet access needs at this meeting?
    • what land are you on?
    • what meeting roles you'd like to help with
    • discussion topics or proposals you'd like to put on tonight's agenda
    • report-backs from any of your working groups
    • updates from your collective
    • any brief announcements
    • updates on any conflict mediation
    • if you've asked anybody to leave the building due to safe space issues
  • please be BRIEF! Less than 4 minutes per person! Anything that might take longer must be put on the agenda as a discussion item

finance update

  • john doesn't want to be treasurer so we need a new one
  • sarah found about $2k worth of unsettled expenses between omni and diy that we want delegates to consent on
    • Including unclogging seriously blocked toilet, installing Exit signs, drywalling AV room, other essentials.
      • Patrik: have impression we had approved these already?
  • Need to send acknowledgement letters for people who have donated to Omni, for tax purposes (can now deduct even if you do not itemize!). What is the process? Template? Sarah could do if necessary. Needs to go out Jan 31.

problematic individual at omni

  • Marc: someone at Omni refused to leave last night. Yelled and called Sierk nasty things. Marc originally let him in - claimed to be with FnB. Marc has a picture (with mask, but last time Sierk had to kick him out, he was not wearing a mask).
  • Jake: suggest printing a picture of them for the inside of the front door, saying "this person is not allowed in Omni, they should email mediation@lists.omnicommons.org for more information"

Re/moving computer station

  • Encourages mancaving. Only 3 people using it anyway - can we just give them cheap laptops? Reclaim some space we can use for book shelves.
    • Marc has a stack of cheap laptops
  • Put up sign saying "these computers will be going away - if you use them on a regular basis, please contact info@omnicommons.org". Deadline Feb 1st?
    • Marc: loop in Big Ed before we remove the computers
    • Jake: can also offer the computers to the people using them.
  • we made a nice google doc to print out, that lists info@omnicommons.org and https://omnicommons.org/laptop
