Explore plan to act on a new space.

We haven't really been coordinated in how we look for a space. We should try to come up with a plan of attack.

So how much could we afford anyway? We think about $1150ish for about six months and try to grow membership to match. There was talk about forming a space searching committee.We need to compile some numbers on our group, also it would be good to query.the membership for what they want or where they want it. and what extra features they would like.
