Treasurer's report
Piotr donated $200 to the space because we were $40 short on rent pending Patreon re: one month advance. He feels it was mostly a timing issue, he will review the trend.
Shop status
There was a shop cleanup event! The chair population has been culled among other things.
Old Business/Action Item Review
Installation of NVR
Installed the parking lot camera! The only remaining item to relocate the camera that overlooks the CNC alley area to reduce dead space.
Toner station
Ben will bring his trailer when he can, it is currently in use on another project. We need muscle power to tip it over and transport it up onto the trailer.
Ben to update Keymaster code to accommodate 24x7 access for new tier members
No progress on this yet.
Agenda Item: Membership rate changes & ancillary issues
- Dates were originally set in January. April 1 doesn't make sense with a message going out now. Do we change the deadline, or change the message?
- Karen recommends June 1 as new target.
- Patreon tier implementation still needs to be done. How do we accomplish the "If you sign up for annual now, you lock in access for a year"?
- 'Unpublishing' old tiers appears the path forward as part of making the new tiers.
- Post/Letter is about 70% written Not sure how to complete it. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fheF-DDapq3ZByjzN197vdgOcTiSuvYNP0JYfIpFxMU/edit?usp=sharing
