Virtual Meeting Etiquette

• Be excellent.
• Attendance and voting can be found in the #meetings slack channel.
• Please show up early if you are concerned about your audio.
• If there is no one waiting to speak feel free to do so at the next opportunity.
• If there is someone waiting to speak, please say that you are raising you hand in the google call chat. (This will be demonstrated)
• Please refrain from other side conversation, these can be distracting for the rest of the meeting and make it difficult for the chair to keep track of whats going on.

Officer Reports

Treasurer & Budget

Treasurer's report: https://www.i3detroit.org/wi/images/0/0b/October2020ProfitandLoss.pdf

Bank balance	$109,778.55
Emergency Fund	($30,000)
Allocated to Zones/SIGs/etc.	($22,032.98)
Allocated to Expansion (MEDC)	($54,674.46)
Net	$3,071.11

Current worst-case is 17 months (Assuming all bills continue, with zero income.)

• Slightly Concerned about the Dues, PLEASE RE-UP your YEAR PAY DUES
• The new Laser purchase exists which was a major expense this last month
• Can be reviewed in October Profit and Loss
• Reviewed Profit and Loss by Class, "Not Specified" indicates our dues are a little low and we are showing that we are spending more than we have going in. The Pandemic was not anticipated with the dues increase. Current spending habits are not sustainable long term if we do not adjust appropriately come budget meeting, and get people on their dues plan appropriately
• Budget meeting is in December, and a plan is being formed for identifying the formation and shape of the Budget meeting
• Budget meeting survey pending
• The total net is higher than expected because we spent less than we initially allocated

VP of Membership-Onboarding

Membership changes since last meeting:

• 2 Member => Hiatus
• 1 Hiatus => Inactive
• 3 Onboarding => Membership
• 1 Scholarship expiration
• 1 Scholarship start

Scholarship fund update:

• 11 Members on scholarship
• $539 Allocated (of $791 available)
• Average value of $49/scholar

Key re-activation progress:

• 149 keys have been reactivated (of the 279 currently in the door)

Going forward, new member appointments will be in-person as long as new people are comfortable with doing so (unless/until rules change anyway)

Member Changes March 1st - November 1st 2020:

• 72 membership plans ended (One $49 all the rest were $59) of these:
  • 30 were the treasurer cleaning up plans for people who left and didn't tell us
  • 5 left either in good standing (or switched to no plan at all)
  • 34 went on Hiatus
  • 3 switched to scholarships
• During the same period 5 members returned from hiatus or otherwise being gone

Bottom line: We lost ~35 dues-paying (probably) members during the last 8 months, cleaned about the same number of zombie plans out of the CRM and picked up ~5 new people! According to Seltzer we have 134 $59 members as of 11/1. This is all based off of plans in Seltzer

• We can start poking those that went on Hiatus that indicated they wanted to be informed when the space was open at all
• Discussion about the On-Boarding process happened, conclusion was the Pandemic was more of the issues than the process
• Discussion about including more advertising that we are Open, but provisionally
• We need to be aware of the financial repercussions from lack of membership, and the repercussions of the Pandemic on the next few years of available spending
• There may be some other financial options that we need to pursue over the next few months to keep i3Detroit building space open, this will be discussed over this next while

• Action Item: Jamie - Will advertise on FB that we are OPEN and Friday Night Hangouts exist.
• Action Item: Mel - Will discuss in Fundraising Committee about having a general DONATE to i3 for the Holidays.
