RSVP for Board Meeting + Action Items - sudo-discuss

21 Oct 2014

Hello fellow (and future?) Board of Responsibility and Little Power
members,

In case you missed it, we're planning a meeting that will happen within the
next week. It should be delicious (potluck style). Please RSVP with your
preferred time slots here: https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/sudofivezero1c3/

Here are things that need to be discussed/done:

*We need to create an action plan and deadline to complete our 501(c)(3)
application.
*Since our 501(c)(3) form has not been completed, we need to fill out state
form 3500 to convince California not to levy state taxes for last year
(2013).
*We need to find a new Treasurer to replace Max.
*We may want to discuss refreshing the Board with a new set of members.
*We need to update the Board page on the wiki:
https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Board

I've started a planning document with these items and space for meeting
notes, here: <https://pad.riseup.net/p/2014sudoboard>. Please add anything
you think is missing.

Below is a message from Matt S. with more details and relevant documents
attached.

Cya,
Vicky

Subject: [sudo-board] Submitting Tax Information to State of California by
Nov 7
To: sudo-discuss &lt;sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org&gt;rg>, Board of Responsiblity
and Little Power &lt;board(a)lists.sudoroom.org&gt;

We received a notice from the State of California Franchise Tax Board,
notifying us that (since we have yet to submit or complete our 501(c)3
application) we must fill out state form 3500 to convince California not to
levy state taxes for last year, 2013.

I've filled out this form to the best of my knowledge so far, but it is
incomplete. It needs some more attention. See attached:

"state_tax_form_3500_sudo_room.pdf"
which should have saved my submitted values to many of the required fields.
We need a few things:

1. Review what I've already added (make sure dates and such are correct!)
2. Complete the rest of the form to the best of our ability
3. See if any lawyerly advice can help us ensure this goes smoothly
4. *Submit before Friday November 7* (30 days from October 9, 2014)

"Send us either your tax exempt letter, Form 3500, Form 3500A, or Form 100
with a copy of this letter within the next 30 days or we may issue a tax
assessment based on available information. A penalty of 25% of the
additional tax may be assessed for failure to provide information upon
written request."
