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: Memebers are not allowed to store projects or supplies for an extended amount of time. I would like to offer two art based summer camps over the summer to bring in a new crowd of families. One is a dollhouse camp in July and the second one is a paper mache camp in August. Both require 8-10 large projects to be stored for 4 days each (monday afternoon thru thursday night).
Solution: Give me temporary permission to store these items in either the classroom, or another suitable room during the week of each camp.
Relevance to our tax exempt status: none
Motion: Give Jessee temporary permission to store student projects during the week of each class, and no longer.

Problem: Meetup is one of three electronic scheduling platforms that Makersmiths uses to post events and classes. The scheduling committee has been struggling to keep all three synced. Eliminating one of the platforms would significantly save the committee time and effort. Meetup is the committee's choice to be dropped since is does not have several of the features like discount pricing that the organization is using with the other platforms. A vote at the Dec membership meeting was favorable in dropping our subscription and supporting only two platforms for scheduling. Those remaining platforms would be Makermsith.org and Facebook.
Solution: Discontinuing Meetup would reduce the committees work load and would save $15 a month in fees.
Relevance to our tax exempt status: none
Motion: Discontinue the Makersmiths Meetup subscription.
