=== Metalshop LeanTo ===
*Information only at this point
*Metalshop now has a piece of equipment that really should not be indoors with the rest of the metalworking equipment
*We are looking into pouring a 10ft wide pad the length of the hot shop, potentially a mono slab pour and 6in thick concrete
*Might take about 6 cubic yards of concrete (potentially $1,000 for that much concrete if we do the work ourselves, but that is beyond Joe and Wes’s comfort on doing on our own, might be close to $2k to have a company pour it).
*Concrete companies charge a minimum of 10yrs to deliver
*Might consider a shipping container if code allows
**This equipment will require a cover over the new equipment, which might impact recovering the roof and will need to coordinate with Buckley to see how this would impact the recover and what their preference would be. (no idea how much a decent structure and roof would run, but could double the price)
**Will need to look at permits, but would like to include sound deadening walls to prevent complaints from neighbors
**Not sure on cost at this point, but this would definitely be a secondary project to getting the roof done, as well as re-paving the parking lot
*Rustin encourages members to attend to discuss this further at the next metalshop meetup on 7/6 4:30pm

===Roof Funding===

*We now have a fairly close ‘apples to apples’ comparison of the roofing quotes.

Motion: to select builder, roof work to be done, and authorize signing of contract

*Will most likely need to raise another $40,000 to cover the delta in roof cost between what insurance paid and the highest bid.
**Should be starting a ‘Raise The Roof’ campaign in the next month since it may be some time in September before 2 of the builders might be able to start on the roof, and August for the 3rd builder.
**Fundraising is working diligently to cover the delta from potential sponsors, but still welcomes members to donate money to our ‘Raise The Roof’ campaign (need to coordinate with the Treasurer to see how he would like that fundraising campaign titled on donation slips)

===Taxes Clarification===

*The rental of equipment is considered taxable in KS (i.e. the screens in screenprinting may need to be covered in taxes)

==New Business==

*Made over $18,700

===Maker Scholarships===

*Two potential members have asked about what the requirements of our scholarship are
*If the two potential members decide to apply for the scholarship, then the board will have to enter executive session to discuss privately whether or not to grant these members scholarships
*Currently have enough funding coming in earmarked for scholarships to handle 5 members total
*If a member would like to sponsor/add to the scholarship fund, they can adjust and ear mark the funds in their wild apricot account

Doug Wilson: Added Clarification that no Executive Session was warranted.

=AGENDA=
==Attendance==
===Board Members===

*Rustin Atkeisson, President
*James Lancaster, At-Large
*LaDeana Dockery, At-Large
*Gary Titus, Treasurer
*Doug Wilson, Secretary
*Sherry Ibrahim, Vice President
*Aaron Rivers, At-Large
*Joe Birzer, At-Large

===Absent===

===Members===

==Standing Items==

*'''Thanks & Recognition'''
*Joe B., Wes T., Greg C., Chris W. for their help with the exhaust system
*Joe B., Wes T., Jesse S., Jessie ?, and Aaron R. for their help with moving the donated metalshop equipment!
*Spirit Aerosystems for loaning the garden committee some of their Team Spirit volunteers to help pull weeds from the garden!
*Lesley Kirkland for volunteering an entire workday in the Garden
*April and Jesse Schlenker for Garden maintenance
*Jay Christensen for replacing the broken hose splitter in the Garden

==Old Business==
===Surplus Auction===

*Sounds like everything has been moved!

===MakerFair - Exploration Place===

*Rustin and John Harrison have been asked to lead up the ‘tinker corner’ of maker fair this year
*Exploration Place would like to have at least 20 different demonstrations/groups out representing tinkerers from wichita

===Election Committee===

*Updates and progress of nominations
**Current nominations can be found on the wiki once the election committee confirms with the nominees: https://wiki.makeict.org/wiki/2023_Board_Nominations_and_Election_Results
**For clarification of election rules: [[Voting Policy]]

===Roof Funding===

*We now have a fairly close ‘apples to apples’ comparison of the roofing quotes.

Motion: to select builder, roof work to be done, and authorize signing of contract

*Will most likely need to raise another $40,000 to cover the delta in roof cost between what insurance paid and the highest bid.
**Should be starting a ‘Raise The Roof’ campaign in the next month since it may be some time in September before 2 of the builders might be able to start on the roof, and August for the 3rd builder.
**Fundraising is working diligently to cover the delta from potential sponsors, but still welcomes members to donate money to our ‘Raise The Roof’ campaign (need to coordinate with the Treasurer to see how he would like that fundraising campaign titled on donation slips)

===Taxes Clarification===

*The rental of equipment is considered taxable in KS (i.e. the screens in screenprinting may need to be covered in taxes)
*May need to update tax policy from last month

==New Business==
===Treasurer’s Report - Gary===

*We spent less than anticipated
*Spent over $13,500
*Made over $18,700
*This does not reflect the payment made to MakeICT by insurance for the roof

===Minutes Approval===

*Board to review minutes notes from April

April: https://wiki.makeict.org/wiki/April_20th_2023

*Motion

===New Policies Recommended by Membership===

*Guest Access Policy
**A lot of issues and questions have come up in the past couple of months as to what kind of access guests should have to the makerspace

Link to update of policy: https://docs.google.com/document/d/13IDZcpzDoyrkGuet822saZiGYE-5jHAW/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=109402023692581537088&rtpof=true&sd=true

===Maker Scholarships===

*Two potential members have asked about what the requirements of our scholarship are
*If the two potential members decide to apply for the scholarship, then the board will have to enter executive session to discuss privately whether or not to grant these members scholarships
*Currently have enough funding coming in earmarked for scholarships to handle 5 members total
*If a member would like to sponsor/add to the scholarship fund, they can adjust and ear mark the funds in their wild apricot account

===Executive Session?===

*Executive Session may be necessary if potential members decide to apply. None applied. No Executive Session Conducted.

Elections - Questions

2023-05-17T01:08:26Z

Doug Wilson: Add a date

This page is to collect all questions for board candidates, who are elected in June. Anyone can edit this page or post suggested questions, with the understanding that each candidate will pick the questions that best reflect their intentions for the board.

Candidates are strongly encouraged to post their answers as new threads at http://talk.makeict.org by 1 week before the annual meeting.

Candidates will also be given 2-3 minutes each to address the attendees at our annual meeting.

==Questions for all candidates==
2020, 2021, 2023 Questions
===Tell us about yourself===

#What are some favorite things you have already done for MakeICT?
#What in your opinion qualifies you to be a board member?
#If you have served on the Board in the past, What do you feel you did right? What do you think you did wrong, or could have done better?
#Are you able to be at Board meetings, Maker Mondays and other events for the duration of your term?
#It is our mission to innovate, learn, and build community at the intersection of art, technology, science, and culture. How would you support our mission as leadership?
#Do you promise you can serve out your entire term until next June? Do you predict that you'll be open to running for a second or third term so MakeICT has a continuous, stable board of directors?
#Have you read our [[bylaws]] and [[standing rules]]?
#What areas of the makerspace are you proficient/not proficient in?

Shopbot

Doug Wilson: Updated Contacts

[[File:shopbot_alpha_4x8.jpg|200px]]

The shopbot is a wood CNC router in the [[woodshop]]. We have been teaching introductory classes to the Shopbot and CNC on roughly a monthly basis. Look at the calendar for classes. These are limited in size, and we split into 2 groups to get hands on, each covering the shopbot and one of the two software packages that's being used.

Note, that like everything in the woodshop, use of the Shopbot requires that you be authorized to use the woodshop, via the class.

==Software==
There are several ways to generate the g-code required for LinuxCNC to use the shopbot.

For very simple applications: http://easel.inventables.com/

For more advanced: http://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/overview

==Problems==
One problem that has been encountered is that due to trying to keep the feed rate up, the motion planner will cut some corners. To prevent this add the line to your program: "G64 P0.001". This will tell it to keep deviations to less than 0.001 units (mm or in), while still attempting to keep the speed up as much as possible. You can use a higher value if you want to. See here for a more complete discussion as to why that happens: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.6/html/common/User_Concepts.html

=='''Cash Donation Policy'''==

'''Policy:'''
Webster's dictionary defines a donation as “the making of a gift especially to a charity or public
institution: a free contribution: gift.”

When a member or guest gives a donation or purchases consumables, the funds should be placed in a MakeICT specific envelope to designate where the funds will be applied. Once the envelope is complete, place it in a box for donations and purchases.
Examples of what to write on the envelope: (this is not an inclusive list)
*Department
*Purchase or Donation
*Item purchased
**Example: Fab lab, Purchased, Filament

Both '''donations''' and '''purchasing of consumables''' that have a designated department listed on the envelope will '''go to improving that specific department''' at MakeICT. Funds that are not in an envelope will go towards what is listed on that particular box. Being specific on these envelopes is important so the Treasurer knows if the funds are going towards a donation or purchasing of materials that have a listed price. This will impact the
amount of money MakeICT has to pay in sales tax.

This code of conduct applies to all MakeICT spaces, including the physical makerspace, website, forum, event locations, and any other spaces, both online and off. Anyone who violates this code of conduct may be sanctioned or expelled from these spaces at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Some MakeICT spaces have additional rules in place, which will be made clearly available to participants. Participants are responsible for knowing and abiding by these rules.
Harassment includes, but is not limited to:

* Offensive comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, mental illness, neuro(a)typicality, physical appearance, body size, age, race, religion, or genetic information.
* Unwelcome comments regarding a person’s lifestyle choices and practices, including those related to food, health, parenting, drugs, and employment.
* Deliberate misgendering or use of ‘dead’ or rejected names.
* Gratuitous or off-topic sexual images or behaviour in spaces where they’re not appropriate.
* Physical contact and simulated physical contact (eg, textual descriptions like “*hug*” or “*backrub*”) without consent or after a request to stop.
* Threats of violence.
* Incitement of violence towards any individual, including encouraging a person to commit suicide or to engage in self-harm.
* Deliberate intimidation.
* Stalking or following.
* Harassing photography or recording, including logging online activity for harassment purposes.
* Sustained disruption of discussion.
* Unwelcome sexual attention.
* Pattern of inappropriate social contact, such as requesting/assuming inappropriate levels of intimacy with others
* Continued one-on-one communication after requests to cease.
* Deliberate “outing” of any aspect of a person’s identity without their consent except as necessary to protect vulnerable people from intentional abuse.
* Publication of non-harassing private communication.
MakeICT prioritizes marginalized people’s safety over people’s comfort. The Board of Directors reserves the right not to act on complaints regarding:
* ‘Reverse’ -isms, including ‘reverse racism,’ ‘reverse sexism,’ and ‘cisphobia’
* Reasonable communication of boundaries, such as “leave me alone,” “go away,” or “I’m not discussing this with you.”
* Communicating in a ‘tone’ you don’t find congenial
* Criticizing racist, sexist, cissexist, or otherwise oppressive behavior or assumptions

===Reporting===

If you are being harassed by a member of or participant at MakeICT, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact the Board of Directors at either report@makeict.org or https://makeict.org/report/ . If the person who is harassing you is on the team, they will recuse themselves from handling your incident. We will respond as promptly as we can.

This code of conduct applies to MakeICT spaces, but if you are being harassed by a member of MakeICT outside our spaces, we still want to know about it. We will take all good-faith reports of harassment by MakeICT members, or participants, seriously. This includes harassment outside our spaces and harassment that took place at any point in time. The Board of Directors reserves the right to exclude people from MakeICT based on their past behavior, including behavior outside MakeICT spaces and behavior towards people who are not in MakeICT spaces.

We reserve the right to reject any report we believe to have been made in bad faith. Reports intended to silence legitimate criticism may be filed without response.

We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting victims of abuse. Investigations will be kept as confidential as possible. At our discretion, the results of substantiated investigations may be made public if we believe that doing so will increase the safety of MakeICT members or the general public. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent. Nothing in this section precludes contacting the police or other legal authorities when indicated.

===Consequences===

Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

If a participant engages in harassing behavior, The Board of Directors may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including expulsion from all MakeICT spaces and identification of the participant as a harasser to other MakeICT members or the general public.

===License and attribution===

This anti-harassment policy is based on the example policy from the Geek Feminism wiki, created by the Geek Feminism community. (http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Community_anti-harassment) It is public domain, no credit and no open licensing of your version is required.

Approved by the board [[November_17th_2022|17 November 2022]], amended by the board [[December_15th_2022|15 December 2022]]

**https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tIrqZS-qJ04CzB1hAtBQevOXivdFH7RNngvytbVb_64/edit
**Doug moves we adopt the policy as is, and remove/modify obsoleted policies
**LaDeana Seconds
**Motion carries. 5 yes, 1 no, 1 not voting (president)

===Collecting Demographic information===

*Demographics survey has been sent out and has over 100 replies
*LaDeana needs a number of our budget for the grant this information needs. The Finance Committee will meet on Monday and they will create this

===Wichita Virtual School (USD 259) Education Imagine Academy===

*We received a budget and a plan from USD 259. Work is still being done.
*They will be here starting January 17th, 18th, and 19th. Noon - 2 pm.
*LaDeana, James, Malissa, and Sherry will all be helping.
*They will bring 1 adult per 5 children, so lots of additional help.
*Further help may be required if authorization is needed in areas the above people are not authorized in.
*For now at least, the students and teachers will be guests of some of the 4 MakeICT Members mentioned above, depending on who is able to help on a specific day.
*Some consideration needs to be given to a cancellation policy if one of the 4 MakeICT Members above are unable to make one day.

===Founders Day===

*Was pretty successful
**Mayor of Wichita came by and proclaimed December 3rd as the MakeICT Founders Day
**Both room 3 and room 4 were packed with vendors
**Had multiple tours with more than 10 people
**Make and takes were not super popular but still had decent engagement
**The afterparty had a nice chill vibe between the live music, DJ, good food, and two rooms full of relaxed members
**Some more volunteer coordination could be good, some volunteers showed up to help and there weren’t super clear roles assigned.
**Some other feedback was mentioned as far as things we could’ve done better.
**A post mortem meeting would be great to go over those things, and log them on the wiki

===COVID Mask Policy Discussion / Update - All===

*Prior meetings:
*MakeICT has no requirement to wear masks. However, MakeICT reserves the right to require mask wearing during indoor scheduled group activities at the discretion of the activity organizer with advance notice.
**Per: (Checked December 7) https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/about-face-coverings.html
***Low
***In Sedgwick County, Kansas, community level is low.
****If you are at high risk for severe illness, talk to your healthcare provider about whether you need to wear a mask and take other precautions
****Stay up to date with COVID-19 vaccines
****Get tested if you have symptoms

==New Business==
===Treasurer’s Report - Gary===

*We are up-and-running in the new (online) version of QuickBooks! The learning curve is a little steep, but we’re getting there.
*We got our taxes filed! Bill of about $1,500 from our CPA for that.
*Gary is still working quite a bit with our CPA to make sure our budget is reconciled.
*Our bank account is reconciled!(?)
*All instructors will get a paycheck regardless if they want one or not. If they do not want the paycheck, they can sign the check and designate where that money is to go.
*A $1723 bill, and a$102 bill from River City Electric was received. The $1723 bill was for fixing the Fab-Lab heater. The $102 bill was for them coming out and turning the circuit breaker back on for the kitchen.
*We should call the heater company to see if any parts or labor can fall under warranty.
*Still researching lockers, who owns them, who’s paying. Etc. Lots of demand for lockers!
*Brad Decker? Does anyone know who this member is? They sent a check for membership but we don’t have a record of them.
*a big change our CPA is recommending is for the Officers to take office at the start of the year, instead of halfway through. This keeps only one board responsible for one budget.
*We need to further restrict funding to a board-approved transactions.
*We need to make sure the Treasurer is in-the-know on sales so we can pay sales tax. 

===2023 Budget Review===

*Area leads submitted their budgets for 2023
*Gary and James have been working to integrate those budgets into an overall budget for the space
*Budget review will be postponed until the January board meeting. They are working diligently to get a budget to review.
*Area budgets total somewhere around $20,000.
*We need a more-than-1-year budget, to help save for big projects like a parking lot or a new roof.
*Overall budget this year seems to be healthier than we thought, but certainly not enough to buy a new roof by next year.
*A last resort to pay for a new roof may be a loan. If no other funding sources can be found 

===November Minutes Approval===

*Board to review minutes notes, but notes are not updated yet

*Postpone until January 

===Security Chairperson===

*David Springs has stepped down to spend more time with his family and focus on his business
*Rustin Atkeisson has been trained up to help process memberships and create badges
*Rustin feels it’s a bit of a conflict of interest to be both Security lead and President.
*Malissa mentioned at Breakfast with the board that she’d be willing to be on the committee, but not the lead
*If a security alarm goes off, the designated member of security, the alert goes to a bunch of people on the security committee, in order, if the first does not answer, the second gets a call.
*Michael Atherton also expressed an interest in being on the committee but does not want to be a lead.
*Need to appoint an official chairperson for Security
*Rustin is willing to be the security chairperson until another person is willing to be the chairperson.
*James moves we appoint Rustin as the current chairperson
*Sherry seconds
*Motion carries. 6 yes, 1 not voting (president) 

===Code of Conduct Policy Revision===

*'''Member Privacy/Reporting:'''
* '''Suggested Amendments in italics:''' “We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting victims of abuse. ''Investigations will be kept as confidential as possible.'' At our discretion, ''the results of substantiated investigations may be made public'' if we believe that doing so will increase the safety of MakeICT members or the general public. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent. ''Nothing in this section precludes contacting the police or other legal authorities when indicated''."
* '''OLD TEXT:''' We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting victims of abuse. At our discretion, we may publicly name a person about whom we’ve received harassment complaints, or privately warn third parties about them, if we believe that doing so will increase the safety of MakeICT members or the general public. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent.
* LaDeana Moves to adopt the suggested amendment to the policy as written
* Sherry Seconds
* Motion carries. 6 yes, 1 not voting (president)
{{Decision | Update Code of Conduct}}

===Mt. Vernon Signage===

*A sign company will need to make the portion of the sign that says ‘MakeICT’ as well as take care of the permitting
*A bonded company will need to print the sign and submit the permit
*The only part of the sign that is considered the sign is the text that says "MakeICT". We can create almost anything in addition to that text.
*Sign companies can have troubles with adhering a sign in cold weather
*4'x12.5' sign quotes from sign companies have been >$2500. This would cover the existing sign with two sides.
*2'tall, 8' wide, single sided sign could be closer to $500 if we make something removable.
*We can make the monument that the sign sits on.
*We need designs and to figure out budget.
*There is an easement (distance from the streets) we need to stay out of
*Rustin would like to put out a call for designs for a sign a monument for the sign to be on
*It is $25 + $6 per 10 square feet (rounded up) for the permit of the sign

Lead(s), and their designees.
