Proposals

Badge access for Alisa Ex

  • Proposal by Gadget
  • Proposed on Mon, 22 Oct 2012 18:04:48 -0700
Alisa is an awesome person. She is a great help around the space, helping
with tours and having her knowledge with costume design is a great bonus!
She brought in the piano upstairs and her current emulator t-shirt is her
current work in progress. Her Van Gogh box turned out to be amazing. She is
currently working in code academy learning java script. And she is working
on building a light-able companion cube

She has been coming into the space for about the last 3 months.

Due to her crazy work schedule, I think both the space and Alisa would
benefit from having badge access.

HYH Put food in vending machine

  • Proposal by Mike Wolfson
  • Proposed on Fri, 19 Oct 2012 13:40:16 -0700 (PDT)
So I think we have the all clear from Jacob to use the vending machine in 
the front of the lab for real food.  There are is a caveat:
- The machine is on Craiglist, so if it sells, our food would be homeless.  
I think the bill changer is actually all that is for sale, so the food 
might not be homeless, but not sell-able.  The whole machine might go.  (I 
think it has been for sale for a while, and not exactly selling like 
hotcakes)

My thoughts:
- we sell general snacks, both healthy and not (based on ideas from another 
thread).
- this is a fundraising mechanism - the items have a high markup - profits 
go to the lab and the operation of the machine 

I am willing to do the work to stock and keep track of the machine 
(hopefully Chad and Marita could help me with any accounting, but I will do 
that too if necessary)

---------------------------
The formal proposal:

I propose that we allocate $150 to a budget to seed the vending machine.  
This would be around $50 in change for the machine, and $150 for food.

The intention with this endeavor is that it would be self-sufficient.  This 
would be a one time allocation.  The funding for re-stocking would come 
from funds in the machine.
--------------------------

So what do you think?....
