==Notes==

David K presents.
*right now the biggest hurdle is parking 1 for every 1000 feet^feet. could get variance if we petitioned to city council 
"do we want a place were people can sign up for the revolution?" someon else mousily: "yes"

Question: What happened to the group headed by Olmstead?
Their business plan was not viable.
In what ways was it not viable? And have they completely given up?

*Seeking radical community organizing groups to share the space with us.
*David's been talking to the Perlinger Library (who are running out of space) about having a satellite space there
*To some degree, we could build out the second floor (60ft ceilings)
*Zoning is great, with the exception of needing to apply for zoning for community assembly (60+ people)
---scrubbed finacial info for privacy
*2-3 year lease with someone on the hook (guarantors) - $1x,xxx/month to lease
The bottom rung on getting in there:
*first, last, deposit, = $yyk, plus garauntors
*without garantor ~$zzk

===discussion===
zach - national cooperative bank usually helps
david - reads a visioning statement. BAPS has always been about organizing post-occupy. its always been about a commune where members get their needs met without the mediation of money. that's what 
magrit - i might charge money for classes is that a problem? : david - no, of course we have to have commerical means to pay the rent,
clay - what would the decisions be like for the mega collective : david - ive made this draft "collective of collectives" delegates to an exexcutive council that makes binding decision by consensus.
Owen - so sudo is not on board? : max - no actually i was the main dissenter, and i've since reversed and am rallying sudo to that end.
clay - what's with the time bank? ; zach - that's defunct
Carrie - what's your minimum committment for a new group? : niko - tell us what you can afford. its not like we will determine your space by money. bring everybody, if we have enough cash to move in well then figure it out.
Magrit - what's hte time horizon? david k - well owner woudl take $2M  if someone offered it tomorrow. however owner wants our kind of ideas. even until march would probably be OKAY. 
magrit are there times when we get into the space?  they live there so we could schedule a visit but maybe not more than 8 people?
owen? whats the maintenance of the building. davind k - ive had architect friend check it out
Nikki - let me reiterate that even if its not the omni we will sitll make the collective of collectives.
David b - notify other collectives to join us
Tooth - i am involved in an artist run film lab.
Mara - i will talk to Salta,  can we just have a few months of the year? : David K. we can schedule a common area?
zach - bar could subsidize : niko - wouldnt' be fantastic for safe space
