Consent Agenda

Newly proposed agenda items appear in the consent agenda. Any member present at the meeting may pull an item out of the consent agenda for discussion, at which point it goes under “New Business”. If nobody objects to the solutions presented by the consent agenda, everything in the consent agenda passes by consensus. Items that have more than one proposed solution should be moved to the “New Business” section.

Any member may edit this wiki page and place an item on the consent agenda. However, discussion of agenda items should be done via the forums. The cut-off time for addition to or revision of the the agenda’s items is 48 hours prior to the meeting.

Monetary Lane Lease Agreement (Andrew LeCody)

Problem: Our current lease is expiring and we need more space.

Solution:

• Authorize Andrew LeCody (President) to sign the lease agreement for 1825 Monetary Lane #104.
• Authorize payment of first month’s rent, security deposit and tenant improvements.

Relevance to our tax exempt purposes: The organization will have a larger space that is better suited to our needs. This allows us to hold multiple large classes/workshops simultaneously.

Approve Pallet Rack Spending (Andrew LeCody)

Problem: $600 of pallet rack were purchased by a consensus of the 2013 Board of Directors in July 2013 but formal approval was mistakenly skipped.

Solution: Approve spending of $600 for the prior purchase of pallet racks.

Relevance to our tax exempt purposes: Shelving is critical for keeping our resources organized and usable.
