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".
Problem: The Purcellville Facility Committee needs a Chairperson
Solution: Appoint Tom Hill as Chairperson
Relevance to our tax exempt status: n/a
Motion: Appoint Tom Hill as Chairperson of the Purcellville Facility Committee.
Problem: As I understand it, we received word from Ken that the items left by MicroCube in the MS-L location would now be ours to have/use/sell at our discretion. Which leaves us with a large unrealized asset.
Solution: I have heard more than one person say that we could encourage people to get it sold by offering a 30% bounty on sold items. If this is acceptable, I'd like to make this widely known. I have a rough plan drawn up to cover the who, what, wheres, and whens of getting it done. Based on rough approval of the concept I will finalize the plan and present it for approval. I have an interest from at least my son Tyler who is looking for work.
Relevance to our tax exempt status: None that I can see.
Motion: approve a 30% Bounty for items sold. All payments must be made through a makersmiths approved payment portal

Problem: Difficult to track the status and number of memberships with too many membership levels in Wild Apricot. We would also like to simplify accounting book-keeping and simplify membership tracking.
Solution: Eliminate the semi-annual and annual discounts and go strictly with a monthly membership dues. This will vastly smooth out cash-flow, simplify accounting book-keeping and simplify membership tracking and forecasting.
Relevance to our tax exempt status: None
Proposed Motion: Motion that Membership Dues section of the current Standing Rules be modified to eliminate the $500 / for six (6) month and $1000 / for annual (12) month membership dues be eliminated. Result will be membership dues for Full Membership = $100 / month and Associate Membership = $50 / month and Corporate Membership = $500 / month.
Problem: Difficult to track the status and number of memberships with too many membership levels in Wild Apricot. We would also like to simplify accounting book-keeping and simplify membership tracking.
