Votes

• https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Vote_to_Authorize_Area_Hosts_to_Check_IDs
  • Are people finding it hard to get ID checks done?
    • Yep, kinda.
  • Do we lose something with a larger group of people who are checking IDs?
    • Good question. That said, board members can have so many people coming through that it makes the conversation shorter.
    • Should this wait until bylaw review?

• https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Vote_to_Create_an_Asset_Removal_Policy
  • Puts this policy into place: https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Asset_Removal_Policy
  • Goal is to create an orderly process to deaccession equipment with opportunity for members to block the disposal.
  • Why the existing options for disposal?
    • Attempt to avoid appearance of conflict of interest
  • What is the timeline?
    • Need to object to the disposal within 7 days.
