Minutes of January 24 meeting
Noticed we forgot to post these minutes to this website committee blog space. Earlier minutes are from before we started using Google Groups for sharing information. When I have time I will see what I can find and combine them into one document and post here for anyone interested.
Logistics/Finance Committee Meeting January 24, 2012
Domes, wording of repo agreement discussed, add to agreement:
location, intention. Apply to more general policy of lending out
logistics. Need some sort of criteria or process, minimal: in
writing, person responsible, purpose of action, nature of action ,
start and duration, location of action. If potential issues then refer
to SC or GA.
W2 space – discussions ongoing, looking at options for individual and
organizational support for paying for space here. Perhaps GA/SC would
approve some moderate contribution from OV’s funds. Next meeting next
Tuesday at 2 pm.
Reimbursements, note that paying for 4 rocket sticks. $25/mo, may be
advisable to go to $35 for unlimited.
Agreed to pay cost of storage locker at Maple Leaf storage, $350.56 to

expensive storage. Note, previous costs paid for by unions supporting
Occupy.

approved by GA.
