=Amendments to the Articles of Association=<br />
*https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Articles_of_Association<br />
* Protocols for dealing with violations, given a variety of scenarios?<br />
<br />
=Conflict Resolution=<br />
*On Saturday night, a person who'd been asked by several members to leave after physically assaulting a sudoer in the space, who'd failed to engage with the conflict resolution process and had shown up several times since, was ushered from the space by a number of sudo room and public school members. In-meeting consensus is to ban Ariel from 2141 Broadway, with one week's notice for a final consensus to be reached next week. <br />
*We now have no way to get in contact with Tabitha, Arielle's sister, since Tabitha gave Arielle her phone. <br />
<br />
=Discussion Spillover= <br />
*New space options / possible CCL collaboration: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Space<br />
*General sense of sudoroom's values:<br />
1. Appreciation for the existing assets and resources existent in sudo room (eg common space)<br />
2. Excellent opportunity to collaborate with Counter Culture Labs to share space (economy of scale)<br />
3. Excellent opportunity to continue collaborating with the Public School<br />
4. MORE AUTONOMY. ALWAYS. <br />
* Sudo-kids on thin ice<br />
** Assumption that sudo kids vandalized the space. People kept drawing penises in the bathroom.<br />
** "Children (under 18) should not be in the space except when accompanied by their parent(s) with advance notice to us."<br />
** <br />
1. Address the bathroom vandalism issue and disambiguate it.<br />
2. We have a family-oriented night with adult supervision, which would occur regularly on Tuesdays. We require that all children be here with parent supervision. <br />
3. How do we remain accessible to people of all age groups?<br />
4. If there is a regular kids/family event, someone needs to assume responsibility (ambiguous?)</div>Tunabananas
