Consent Agenda
Newly proposed agenda items appear in the consent agenda. Any member present at the meeting may pull an item out of the consent agenda for discussion, at which point it goes under "New Business". If nobody objects to the solutions presented by the consent agenda, everything in the consent agenda passes by consensus. Items that have more than one proposed solution should be moved to the "New Business" section.
Any member may edit this wiki page and place an item on the agenda. However, discussion of agenda items should be done via Slack. The cut-off time for addition to or revision of the consent agenda items is 48 hours prior to the meeting. Please note, agenda items (Consent, New, or Old) that request spending $250 or more must include a section on "Relevance to our tax exempt purpose".

Mark: I think there is an error in the label on Board Class for Board members. I do believe that Jim Waldron and Brad Hess were elected last and as such should be labeled at Class 1 members. Erin, Michael and Brandon should be up for rolling off or re-election after Mark and Dave are rolled off or re-elected this year.

Description (Submitter's @name)Eliminate the 'short-term' discounts for Full Memberships (Mark R Millsap )
Problem: Discounts to include the 12 months for price of 10 months and 6 months for price of 5 months membership discounts were never meant to be long term offerings. These discounts were means to get large cash infusions up front in order to get fledgling Makersmiths makerspace up and going. The discounts are becoming a source of confusion, and frustration and don't seem to be evenly offered to everyone at every level. Cash flow accounting would become MUCH easier if discounts were eliminated, as would likely cash flow likely increased slightly.
Solution: Time has come to discontinue the discounts. Board should give ample notice to those on discounted Memberships that when time for renewal, those Memberships will be converted to Monthly-Recurring membership. This change in policy would effect 12 out of 47 Full Memberships (27% of Memberships) at the moment.
Problem:
Solution:
Relevance to our tax exempt status: None
Proposed Motion: I propose that discounted annual and semi-annual memberships be sunset at next renewal this time next year. This would provide a one-year notice to those members utilizing discounted memberships currently.
