Please donate: http://gratipay.com/sudoroom * Omni's electric bill this month was over $900 :( Omni: * Please join working groups!! We especially need more help with Finance, Building Maintenance, and Fundraising. See http://wiki.omni-oakland.org/w/Working_Groups for info on working group mission, tasks and meeting times. * [CONSENSUS] We dig the Omni Music Project, a sound and recording collective seeking tenancy in the basement. OMP proposal to follow. * [CONSENSUS] Omni should buy and install light timers (ahyep) - We get roof access on the 1st - let's solar power this shit! * [BLOCK] Empowering working groups and balancing work at the Omni proposal - for reasons of it being a sly way of eliminating consensus * [FRIENDLY AMENDMENT] Kids Room and Kids Working Group proposal: Sudo requests a single point of contact / bottom-liner, and to hold off on 'stocking books' immediately in that space. Also, the Kids Working Group should decide what to put in that room. * [CONSENSUS] Tenancy definition & cap proposal * [ABSTAIN] Splitting Allocation proposal: Confusion over the language, would request rewording. However, general consent on it because it can be overridden by future omni consensus. * [BLOCK] Member Collective Stewardship Agreement: We'd need to create an HR department to track people's hours. Also, meh on rent reductions generally and equating volunteer work to moneys we desperately need. * [RISE ABOVE] Sudo Room is still waiting to consent on a refined proposal articulating the location, lease agreements, first/last/deposit, and necessary building modifications.
