Sudo Room hours and access rules under new ownership

by Paige P

Hi everyone, Please read over the attached lease we signed with the new building owners, CALLI. CALLI recently asked us to list who our "Designated Individuals" will be. It looks like they are asking for up to 6 people, 3 with "extended access" from 9pm-12pm and 3 with 24 hr access. Until we choose "designated individuals" and work out the side door access with CALLI, *we are limited to using the building only during open hours from 7am-9pm (7 days a week). * It makes sense to me to have these spots open to those who host events and those who can be on call in case of emergency. One other change is that we should no longer be going into spaces outside of Sudo Room, bathroom, or passageways unless there is a public event or we get an ok from CALLI first. The sewing lab downstairs is also closed at the moment, since CC does not yet have a lease for the space. Happy to share more if needed! Paige

Looking for a network rack for Omni - second floor

by Valerie Jameson

Hello Sudoroom members CALLI would like to procure an open network rack for the second floor of the building in the next week to install and move the switches from the current location. If you know anyone that is selling a used 6U open rack cheaper then the one below please let me know ASAP. The rack needs to support the existing 24 & 8 port switches as well as an additional 5 port switch that will be installed when the access control is upgraded. Shelves would be a huge plus. Open to suggestions but the goal is to get this solidified and ordered by Thursday so that I can arrive in time for install next week. Standard price for 6U mounting rack: https://www.amazon.com/JINGCHENGMEI-Networking-Equipments-Adjustable-6UVent… Take care, -- *Valerie Jameson* (she/ella) Stewardship (Property) Manager - 4799 Shattuck Avenue *Collective Action & Land Liberation Institute (CALLI) * CALLI Website <https://www.thecalli.org/> East Bay Permanent Real Estate Cooperative Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/ebprec> | X <https://www.x.com/ebprec> | Instagram <https://www.instagram.com/eb.prec> | YouTube <https://www.youtube.com/ebprec> | LinkedIn <https://www.linkedin.com/company/ebprec>

Omni and EB PREC/CALLI

by Paige P

Hello, I wanted to give a recap on what's happening with Omni Commons building sale and operations. Earlier this month, Omni Commons had three options to prevent foreclosure. The most promising option was to sell the building to CALLI (an affiliate nonprofit of EB PREC https://ebprec.org/). Once EB PREC confirmed they were able to fund the purchase, there's been a big push to work as fast as possible to finalize, given we are on a tight deadline to prevent foreclosure. *Acronyms: CALLI stands for Collective Action and Land Liberation Institute, and EB PREC stands for East Bay Permanent Real Estate Cooperation. CALLI does not have any projects under its belt yet, but its board are all current staff at EB PREC. Everyone currently renting spaces in Omni Commons are getting offered leases to stay. These leases are still in negotiation, and that's the main work that's left for us to do right now. Sudo Room is being offered a 34 year lease to stay in the bocce ball court space. We will have to pay more, but we are also going to have some well-needed commons upgrades (roof renovation is planned, bathroom renovations, rat proofing, etc all to come!). Also there will be some new much needed help in managing the building day-to-day and in conflict resolution. How the building is operated will ultimately be decided by CALLI, but there's lots of back and forth and they really want to work with us on this. Some plans include creating separate entrances and exits for SR and CCL, and restricting access hours + full building access. The entrance hall will continue to host the Free Store for now, with plans to add a cafe again up front later. That is not the focus right now though as there is this big hurry just to meet foreclosure legal work deadlines and finalize collective + tenant leases. This is really exciting, because just a month ago we were at a super severe risk of foreclosing. We still are cutting it really close, with us currently having received a notice of default from the foreclosure agency, and for us being in property tax default. The consensus among the building was that foreclosing would not be worth the uncertainty, difficulty, and harm to the community that the building being bulldozed would likely cause. So that EB PREC was able to step in at this short notice with the funds at hand, and a willingness to dedicate all this time into making something work out is really unbelievable. All of the meeting notes are public on the wikis if you want more info, but also I'm happy to share more info as requested.

Building Roof Installation Complete

by Valerie Jameson

Winter Seasons Greetings! I am reaching out to let everyone know that the new roof installation process has concluded. The roofing crews last day was on 12/13 and this past week our team performed a third visual inspection after final punch list items were concluded. In the coming days, CALLI will square away the final paperwork for this project. The Sierra Roofing team has shown us that the roof is weather proofed and the work appears to be satisfactory. Please keep in mind that there is meant to be a warranty on the work performed by the company. In the event that there are leaks/droplets identified please let me know via email or slack as soon as possible and we will try and identify the source. Over the scope of the project, two additional building issues were brought to our attention pertaining to the exterior wall of the building facing 47th street that will need updates in the coming year, and the design of the rafter beams that go into the stucco wall on the front facing Shattuck side of the building (close to the overlaps with the tile) that might be cause for an additional scope of work. The CALLI team will continue to review capital improvement needs and work on scheduling building upgrades to strengthen the longevity of the building. In the meantime feel free to remove your tarps and protective sheeting, and make efforts to clean and operate your spaces at normal capacities. This post construction period coupled with the ongoing pest/rodent servicing will be most successful if we are able to stay alert and monitor whether the changes are making a positive impact.

roof tar mess + free store/CALLI event on Friday Saturday

by Paige P

Hi, The roof repairs are still going on, and we are getting A LOT of the tar debris in sudo room. We did some cleanup Saturday and Monday, but I'm sure there will be more debris coming down, and it will be a lot of work to get the lab benches clear again. We put up one more tarp, but more would be great to cover all the lab benches. Also Thurs/Friday Free Store + CALLI (building owners) are running this event. If Sudo Room has items wanting to give away, we could join. I'll be there on Friday if anyone would like to coordinate. [image: signal-2024-12-02-100232_002.jpeg] Paige

[Time Sensitive] Omni Commons Building Updates_August Newsletter

by Valerie Jameson

Good Morning Omni Commons Building Users! See urgent updates and the August newsletter below: *Access Control Alert*: The day has come for the front door access control change. The old access control system: card reader, webpage log in, doorbell, and screening camera have been removed as of Wednesday at 2 pm. *Today! Thursday, August 21st *beginning at 8:30 am a technician will be on site installing the Brivo access control system. All organizations should have sent me their organizational copy of their directory sheets (3 tabs) <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OcAzBWeWUbM71u3MBmaYfHmTRmDUpEZfFtC…> if you wanted to be included in the initial upload. If you receive a Brivo email that means you were designated as a front door access control user and will be prompted to download the free Brivo phone app for automatic door access. If you think that you should have been granted access control but are not seeing an invitation from Brivo by the end of the day tomorrow, please notify me and your organization's point of contact as soon as possible. I will be available in person today (August 21st, Monday, August 25th and Tuesday, August 26th afternoon (3-6 pm) if individuals would like help installing or using the app. Although there are only a handful of front door access holders per organization, I would still like to make as many Brivo profiles for your members as possible. That way if future front door access control is needed on a temporary or ongoing basis it can easily be adjusted because folks will already be in Brivo. If you believe you should have been given front door access you can reach out to me via email, but please include your organization's point of contact so that we can determine next steps. *Doorbell Change*: CALLI is installing a new battery operated TAPO camera doorbell by the end of the day *Thursday, August 21st *which will enable me and future designated individuals to verify who is at the door before enabling remote access inside the building. *Directory*: Please continue to add information to the additional two tabs in the directory link above to provide CALLI with the information necessary to track groups points of contact, program activity/hours of operation, as well as general membership. This information is not only vital for the access control but is supporting the development of a *building-wide Google calendar*, building rules enforcement, and other compliance requests. *ADA Controller*: The same company that is installing the access control is working on installing an ADA installer on the front door. The layout of the space will be changing to ensure we can prioritize accessibility into the building. Stay tuned for the upgrade! CALLI has also been talking with Jake from Sudoroom about installing a homegrown alternative for the side door with the orange handle. The timeline for this may take 2-3 additional weeks. If you are requiring ADA compliant access to the building please notify me as soon as possible. You do not need to be one of the designated front door access users for your organization to be given this allowance. *Siding Project*: After many months, a false start, and a permit transfer later we are finally scheduled for *Monday, August 25th* to start on the South wall siding replacement project. The hospital administrative building is really pressuring us to speed the project up to limit the inconvenience on their parking space so please note there may be impacts with noise, and additional people moving through common areas of the building for approximately two weeks. They will be trying to work through Labor Day weekend to finish around September 5th. *Interior Door*: We have nearly received all the necessary approvals from the City of Oakland to move forward with the interior door project we have been discussing for months. Prior to starting the project we will have to make some improvements to the floor. In the coming weeks we will remove the black epoxy on the cement edges of the entrance hall and level the floor with a concrete grinding machine. Please expect to see work notice on lime green paper at least 24 hours ahead of these major projects. For messy projects such as concrete grinding we may be using thin plastic sheeting to section off areas of the building or temporarily turning off access control from the front door to deter people from passing through and tracking dust. If you see these repair obstructions or signage please honor it, and encourage others to do the same. *Books Moved*: Preparation for improvements to the epoxy floor is why bookshelves have been removed from the entrance hall. We will continue to move items out of the area in preparation for the project and phase stored books back into the area at a reasonable pace to integrate better with Free Store. *PG&E Gas Meter Upgrade*: A couple of weeks ago we were engaged by PG&E regarding their ongoing work along Shattuck. They notified us that in the next couple of weeks they would be required to transition our current underground gas meter to one that is affixed to the wall (similar to how most residential properties have their meter.) The meter will be located close to the CALLI office door/mail slot where the Town Fridge used to be. PG&E is working within their departments to get exemptions to modify their design, since the current outlet poses a clearance issue. We may have to consider relocating the outlet close to the ground but are waiting to hear back from PG&E. No date has been scheduled for the work, and we will be monitoring the situation for any updates. *Display Case*: Our first step to improving visibility of information and creating a signage process will go into effect next week. CALLI has purchased 2 display cases to add flyers of events, outreach material, and building information. The first 3 ft x 2ft case will be inside near the entrance. I want to encourage folks to reach out if they want to have materials added. We will also be installing one to the right of the side entrance so that it is more visible as a primary entrance. I would like to limit taped signs on doors to only notices moving forward. *Welfare Tax Exemption Requests*: CALLI has been scrambling to collect a large amount of detailed information (photos, past event flyers, etc) from each group to highlight "charitable uses" in the building for our tax exemption requests for 2024 & 2025. Our application was deemed incomplete and we have until September 1st to make our claim as first time filers for this exemption. Please be on the lookout for urgent and time sensitive communication from us to get this application through to the finish line. I appreciate everyone who has been responsive and supportive up to this point. As a reminder this will include minor amendments to the leases to make sure that they are more in line with what the County Assessor needs to see. *On the Horizon:* *CALLI-versery*: We are approaching 1 year of CALLI Ownership & EBPREC Stewardship! Woo-hoo hopefully yall are not too tired of me yet ;) *Fall Gathering*: We are long overdue for another get-together. If anyone is interested in helping plan another building-wide get-together let me know! *Slack Channel*: I have gotten a lot of feedback about my building wide communication and it's evident that I need an additional method for sharing real time updates and information. I would like to implement and manage a Slack channel for the building. I will continue to post in other venues, but I would like to invite all the contacts from the membership directory to join Slack in addition to future users. It will be optional, but I think it would be a beneficial addition to notices (required) and my less regular newsletters. Lastly, I will be OOO (Out Of Omni) from August 27th-September 1st going to ZIon National Park. If you need to get a hold of me, let's try to chat before I leave for my roadtrip or you can reach me via email or the existing methods (Slack channels, signal, etc).
