Updated insurance policy to remove YCR2 coverage | |||
=== Business Item 1 [Status Update from all Committees ] (Each Committee - 15 min)=== | |||
* Each committee to provide an oral update on status of projects in progress specifically | |||
**Work completed | |||
**Work remaining | |||
**Resources required | |||
**Percentage Completion anticipated by August 31 2017. | |||
* Discussion notes: | |||
==== Admin committee ==== | |||
Jonathon and Alexey meeting with staff this week, discussing continuity while Jonathon on holidays | |||
==== Finance committee ==== | |||
monthly checklist done, EFTs going, NOT done - managing payroll -> bookkeeper, need to start working on next year's budget soon | |||
==== HR committee ==== | |||
OH&S arrange, steps in order, hazard assessments done; next coalating data and next steps, planned for August | |||
Board eval - completed for AGM | |||
Volunteer retention / appreciation - not started | |||
Orientation manual - stalled | |||
Adrian was considering working on working on hazard mitigation when shops were closed, but concerned staff would feel like they had to come in | |||
Chris thinks - if input is sought from staff ahead of time, it wouldn't be a problem to have work done while the shops are closed | |||
=== | ==== Education ==== | ||
Michael - Students didn't get involved at that level, don't have any extra committee work, interested in working in another area | |||
Charitable status? Jonathon thinks the first thing to do is review and revise the objects of the society - perhaps pursue educational objects, and have these ready for the next board retreat. Michael will take the lead on drafting objects | |||
==== Strategic Planning Committee ==== | |||
Jonathon - Had a meeting, but nothing concrete has been done since then | |||

Michael: should we have a bike building blitz while the shops are closed | |||
we are providing a service at cost, but we aren't reaching out to who is using the shop to contribute, | |||
Chris: thinks this is a discussion that should be taken with Coreen | |||
Geoff should set something up for discussions on how to increase revenues, with board members that want to contribute and appropriate staff | |||
Chris: Is bike building position making sense financially? More than breaking even, and we would count breaking even. | |||
Getting more bikes out there, and generating more revenue than if this was just done by volunteers, PLUS getting more volunteer training. | |||
This is the same model as last year. | |||
Feedback from bike building volunteers is that they are learning a lot, feel that the are making valuable contributions, and building community. This invests in our volunteers. | |||
=== New Business Item 2: Board Member Summer Vacations (All 15 min)=== | |||
* With key board members away at various times during the summer, let's make sure none of the board responsibilities are in jeopardy of being overlooked or unnecessarily delayed: | |||
** Issuing Cheques | |||
** Issuing EFT files | |||
** Depositing cash from BWS and BWN safes | |||
** Picking up, opening and distributing to the responsible party Canada Post mail, | |||
** Administrative committee support | |||
Jon: July and August, back for a few days at end of July | |||
Jon will still do deposits | |||
Jon to show Geoff how to issue EFT | |||
Picking up mail, every 2 weeks -> Chris will do this | |||
Chris->Aug 19-27 | |||
Alexey will lead administrative committee while Jonathon is away | |||
Geoff: June 23-July 21 | |||
double check on rent cheques before departure | |||
Check books to Nancy before departure | |||
Derek only other signing officer July 6-21st (need to confirm Derek is around) | |||
Nancy: away 1st week of August | |||
=== New Business Item 3: Staff and Finance To Dos (transition of YCR2 dated June 1st (Geoff 30 min)=== | |||
* Discussion notes: | |||
What changes do we need to make to bank accounts, and staff hours/pay | |||
Goodwill still working on the final agreement, reset transition date to July 1st | |||
Molly's time | |||
Molly reduced hours to 44, reconciling April hours, in June will be 10 hours/week | |||
discussions of YCR2 covering some of the bank time owed to Molly | |||
Bank Account | |||
YCR2 has a dormant account, with no funds in it. The will reactivate the account. For the moment, keep using accounts as before. | |||
They may keep the YCR2 account open, and leave sufficient funds there to cover off Molly's for some period of time. | |||
WHen moving to Goodwill, Janine and others will have to requesition cheques. | |||
As of July 1st, we shouldn't be claiming assets or liabilities on our financial statements. | |||
Goodwill keen on getting training for staff, so they can fix their own bikes or get training to be able to improve | |||
Goodwill: Get guidance from us on how to set up a shop, get some training for their staff | |||
EBC gets access to the impact center - we can schedule our events there (big bike sale, function, etc.) | |||
No financial arrangements between EBC and Goodwill - YCR2 becoming a program of Goodwill. | |||
Jonathon will ask Janine what they are looking for financially on July 1st. | |||
=== New Business Item 5: Internal communication with volunteers around events (Michael 5 min)=== | |||
* Discussion notes: | |||
Volunteer appreciation event at BWN | |||
Michael thought the invitation didn't go out to BWS volunteers (through google group), and think this is the second time | |||
Chris reviewed - Molly sent it to BWS mailing list | |||
=== Bike Works North - renovations, potential budget issues (Chris 15 min)=== | |||
* Discussion notes: | |||
Received a large donation of fixtures, hardware, etc. from MEC (as they've moved) - almost everything we'd need to do a major renovation of bikeworks north. We are now storing a lot of materials, and we'd like to set them up soon. | |||
Looking at early September to do the work, maybe some of it before then. | |||
Perhaps pay an honorarium so we can have a fixed timeframe for doing the work. | |||
May need to consider a budget envelope around $5000 for the work. | |||
Q: What is our ROI? more bike repair stands space for, better display space | |||
Very different experience BWN vs S - distinct entrance, retail type entrance | |||
Have a more welcoming space/entrance | |||
More enjoyable space to be at | |||
Make tools/parts more accessible | |||
Solve some OH&S issues | |||
Store over 90 bicycles in a 10/34' stretch | |||
better display / merchandising - get better prices, less strinkage | |||
