Consent Agenda

Any Board Member may make a motion in the Consent Agenda.  The purpose of the Consent Agenda is to propose motions that have been discussed by Board Members in advance and/or are expected to pass without objection.  If the item does not fit this description, it should be proposed in New Business. Discussion of Consent Agenda items should be done via Slack prior to the meeting.  Any Board Member present at the meeting may request that an item be moved from the Consent Agenda to New Business.  The motions in the Consent Agenda (after any items are moved to New Business) may be passed as a group if there are no objections.   The cut-off time for addition to or revision of a Consent Agenda motion is 48 hours prior to the meeting. Any motion that requests spending $250 or more must include a section on "Relevance to our tax exempt purpose".

CA1: Custom Framing Committee Chair (Scott Newman )

Issue: Custom Framing Committee needs a Chair.

Solution: Name Anthony Lesink as the Chair of the Custom Framing Committee. Since Teresia Scott stepped down on December 1 the Custom Framing Committee has been without a Chair.

Relevance to Tax Exempt Status: None

Motion: The Board appoints Anthony Lesink as the Custom Framing Committee Chair.

Future Planning Committee (Jim Waldron)

Report to the Makersmiths Board of Directors from the Roadmap and Future Planning Committee.
Data was gathered from Board Members and other interested parties relating to 1, 3, 5, and 7+ year future expectations and projections. That data is available in a detailed spreadsheet and a summary document. The Committee reports to the Board that the next recommended steps are to go through the data, nominate for removal such items as the Committee feels are not pertinent to the future of Makersmiths, and then prioritize the remaining items. At that point, in the expected near future, the Committee would ask the Board to confirm the nominated removals, review and adjust the prioritization as they deem necessary, and the select, identify a responsible individual or individuals, and fund those items that the Board feel most meet the resultant determined long term objectives of the organization.

NB1: Venture Crew Chartering Organization (Jonathan White)

Issue: A Scouts BSA Venturing Crew, which has adult leaders who are existing Makersmiths members, has approached Makersmiths about becoming its Chartered Organization.  This involves agreeing to some obligations on the parts of both the Venturing Crew and on Makersmiths.  The prospective Crew Leadership has attended two Board Meetings previously.  The Board has asked for more specific information on the expectations and obligations on both organizations' parts in order to continue the discussion and come to a vote.

Solution: Provided that the Board is clear on and agrees to the expectations and obligations of both Makersmiths and the Venturing Crew, both on a local and national organizational level, of becoming a Chartering Organization, Makersmiths would become the Chartering Organization for a Venturing Crew.

Relevance to Tax Exempt Status: None expected, but needs further clarification on tax filing/exempt status.  No spend >$250 is required.

Motion: Move that Makersmiths become the Chartered Organization for the Venturing Crew represented by Tom Hill and Allon Stern.
