=== Update on Charity Directorate &amp;amp; Goodwill Space (5 min) Jonathan ===&lt;br /&gt;
*Finally made contact with the adjudicator handling our Charitable Status application.  &lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** How do we decide/start being a charity after being approved? When we get approved, we are - but we&#039;d have to determine when we start making operational changes (issues tax receipts ... )&lt;br /&gt;
** Once we get it, what do we need to do to run with it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Update on Goodwill Space for YCR2 (5 min) Jonathan ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Goodwill Warehouse still appears to be a construction zone. May have to employ an alternate location for YCR2 October intake event. Jon has emailed and called Ivan, and may call Dale with Goodwill as we need to know if this facility will be available for October intake&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Adrian - where is the backup? Jon - Sherwood Park - the Robin Hood center - the issue is ... after getting all the bikes back, where do they go? Hoping Goodwill space will be available for storing bikes right away&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Jonathan&#039;&#039;&#039; to find out what happens / timing after charitable status getting approval - registration of organization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== AGM Preparations Discussion (20 min) Jon ===&lt;br /&gt;
* AGM Sunday Oct 2nd &lt;br /&gt;
* Location? &lt;br /&gt;
* update on reports: President; Treasurer; Executive Director. Sep 26th deadline for board-reviewed reports (circulate reports the week before). Jon suggests moving some of the detail on agreement with Goodwill into Treasurer&#039;s report.&lt;br /&gt;
* Resolution to amend Bylaws&lt;br /&gt;
* any other considerations&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** we need a list of who is going into their second year, who needs to be re-elected, who is running&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Geoff&#039;&#039;&#039; to ask Gemma to get August financials done ASAP, so Geoff can write up Treasurer report - write up report without final numbers, for review by board by EOD Friday. &#039;&#039;&#039;Nancy&#039;&#039;&#039; to follow up with Anna to see if a location is booked. &#039;&#039;&#039;Jonathan&#039;&#039;&#039; to provide Chris with interpretation and explanation of bylaw amendment for circulation to the membership prior to the general meeting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Medical Incident at BikeWorks (10 min) Chris ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Incident at Bikeworks south where a volunteer had a medical incident. EMS called, dealt with situation, and left. Volunteer was fine, but discussed what the best procedures where in an incident like this. No clear answer to this. Volunteer is a keyholder, and comes into the shop a lot &lt;br /&gt;
* We don&#039;t have a policy about coming in on own / working on own (non-public hours)&lt;br /&gt;
* Next step - have a longer conversation about best practices&lt;br /&gt;
* if volunteer able to manage risk when on own? If not discourage volunteer from going to shop on own. Or, checking in when in shop on own&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Chris&#039;&#039;&#039; will have a more in depth discussion with volunteer about best practices / managing risk.&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Nancy&#039;&#039;&#039; will follow up on Occupational Health and Safety Advisor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Pogo Car-Share (10 min) Jasmine ===&lt;br /&gt;
* EBC has a business account with Pogo - if doing business on behalf of EBC, person could use EBC&#039;s pogo account for this business. Chris set up a promo code with Pogo - a EBC member can use this and get a free membership (normally one-time fee)&lt;br /&gt;
* EBC could have some shop FOBs. Chris isn&#039;t aware of this / didn&#039;t set it up&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** We don&#039;t currently have a transportation policy - what to do if transportation is required for business activities&lt;br /&gt;
*** Could be a good idea - but how would this be controlled?&lt;br /&gt;
*** Chris isn&#039;t sure that a corporate membership would be that useful - things could be out of the zone.&lt;br /&gt;
*** The staff member that doesn&#039;t already have a POGO membership wouldn&#039;t use this. We can still reimburse volunteers for expenses. It is fairly expensive to do a run from the north to the south shop (over $20)&lt;br /&gt;
** Discussion points to the need for a travel policy...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Alberta Bikes Conference (10 min) Karl ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Promoting free tickets to the conference.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy want going to go, but didn&#039;t think the topics this year (cycle tourism) were as relevant&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon thinks we aren&#039;t doing much for outreach currently. Looking forward to next year, should develop a travel policy. If we are successful in having a surplus budget, we could get more involved in outreach - other bicycle related organization&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy noted that it was good to meet with and connect&lt;br /&gt;
** Karl did a good job promoting this, we could have done a better job responding to this&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Member Topics (10 min) Mr. Constantine ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Phoenix Bikes - Washington - lots of outreach to groups with economic disadvantages. Big orientation to helping people with financial needs - earn a bike, fix bikes, etc. Edmonton has lots of homeless people, EBC might want to look at what Phoenix Bikes does&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy mentioned the Spoke program&lt;br /&gt;
** Phoenix bikes has a heavier orientation to social work&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon - suggested going to the North shop - a very different clientele - probably much more aligned - this is part of our mandate&lt;br /&gt;
* Proposed Bylaw Amendment&lt;br /&gt;
** Guest suggest sending out a &#039;before and after&#039; for what the amendment would mean, as it wasn&#039;t clear to him&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon clarified. We&#039;ve had good board members that have to leave the board after 4 years. We want to allow directors to stay on for more than 4 consecutive years but ... member could not serve on the executive more than 4 consecutive years&lt;br /&gt;

=== Update on Charity Directorate &amp;amp; Goodwill Space (5 min) Jonathan ===&lt;br /&gt;
*Finally made contact with the adjudicator handling our Charitable Status application.  &lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** How do we decide/start being a charity after being approved? When we get approved, we are - but we&#039;d have to determine when we start making operational changes (issues tax receipts ... )&lt;br /&gt;
** Once we get it, what do we need to do to run with it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Update on Goodwill Space for YCR2 (5 min) Jonathan ===&lt;br /&gt;

* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Adrian - where is the backup? Jon - Sherwood Park - the Robin Hood center - the issue is ... after getting all the bikes back, where do they go? Hoping Goodwill space will be available for storing bikes right away&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* AGM Sunday Oct 2nd &lt;br /&gt;
* Location? &lt;br /&gt;

* Resolution to amend Bylaws&lt;br /&gt;
* any other considerations&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** we need a list of who is going into their second year, who needs to be re-elected, who is running&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Geoff&#039;&#039;&#039; to ask Gemma to get August financials done ASAP, so Geoff can write up Treasurer report - write up report without final numbers, for review by board by EOD Friday. &#039;&#039;&#039;Nancy&#039;&#039;&#039; to follow up with Anna to see if a location is booked. &#039;&#039;&#039;Jonathan&#039;&#039;&#039; to provide Chris with interpretation and explanation of bylaw amendment for circulation to the membership prior to the general meeting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Medical Incident at BikeWorks (10 min) Chris ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Incident at Bikeworks south where a volunteer had a medical incident. EMS called, dealt with situation, and left. Volunteer was fine, but discussed what the best procedures where in an incident like this. No clear answer to this. Volunteer is a keyholder, and comes into the shop a lot &lt;br /&gt;
* We don&#039;t have a policy about coming in on own / working on own (non-public hours)&lt;br /&gt;
* Next step - have a longer conversation about best practices&lt;br /&gt;
* if volunteer able to manage risk when on own? If not discourage volunteer from going to shop on own. Or, checking in when in shop on own&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Chris&#039;&#039;&#039; will have a more in depth discussion with volunteer about best practices / managing risk.&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Nancy&#039;&#039;&#039; will follow up on Occupational Health and Safety Advisor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Pogo Car-Share (10 min) Jasmine ===&lt;br /&gt;
* EBC has a business account with Pogo - if doing business on behalf of EBC, person could use EBC&#039;s pogo account for this business. Chris set up a promo code with Pogo - a EBC member can use this and get a free membership (normally one-time fee)&lt;br /&gt;
* EBC could have some shop FOBs. Chris isn&#039;t aware of this / didn&#039;t set it up&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** We don&#039;t currently have a transportation policy - what to do if transportation is required for business activities&lt;br /&gt;
*** Could be a good idea - but how would this be controlled?&lt;br /&gt;
*** Chris isn&#039;t sure that a corporate membership would be that useful - things could be out of the zone.&lt;br /&gt;
*** The staff member that doesn&#039;t already have a POGO membership wouldn&#039;t use this. We can still reimburse volunteers for expenses. It is fairly expensive to do a run from the north to the south shop (over $20)&lt;br /&gt;
** Discussion points to the need for a travel policy...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Alberta Bikes Conference (10 min) Karl ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Promoting free tickets to the conference.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy want going to go, but didn&#039;t think the topics this year (cycle tourism) were as relevant&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon thinks we aren&#039;t doing much for outreach currently. Looking forward to next year, should develop a travel policy. If we are successful in having a surplus budget, we could get more involved in outreach - other bicycle related organization&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy noted that it was good to meet with and connect&lt;br /&gt;
** Karl did a good job promoting this, we could have done a better job responding to this&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guest discussion topics (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Phoenix Bikes - Washington - lots of outreach to groups with economic disadvantages. Big orientation to helping people with financial needs - earn a bike, fix bikes, etc. Edmonton has lots of homeless people, EBC might want to look at what Phoenix Bikes does&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy mentioned the Spoke program&lt;br /&gt;
** Phoenix bikes has a heavier orientation to social work&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon - suggested going to the North shop - a very different clientele - probably much more aligned - this is part of our mandate&lt;br /&gt;
* Proposed Bylaw Amendment&lt;br /&gt;
** Guest suggest sending out a &#039;before and after&#039; for what the amendment would mean, as it wasn&#039;t clear to him&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon clarified. We&#039;ve had good board members that have to leave the board after 4 years. We want to allow directors to stay on for more than 4 consecutive years but ... member could not serve on the executive more than 4 consecutive years&lt;br /&gt;

== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Medical Incident at BikeWorks (10 min) Chris ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Incident at Bikeworks south where a volunteer had a medical incident. EMS called, dealt with situation, and left. Volunteer was fine, but discussed what the best procedures where in an incident like this. No clear answer to this. Volunteer is a keyholder, and comes into the shop a lot &lt;br /&gt;
* We don&#039;t have a policy about coming in on own / working on own (non-public hours)&lt;br /&gt;
* Next step - have a longer conversation about best practices&lt;br /&gt;
* if volunteer able to manage risk when on own? If not discourage volunteer from going to shop on own. Or, checking in when in shop on own&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Chris&#039;&#039;&#039; will have a more in depth discussion with volunteer about best practices / managing risk.&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Nancy&#039;&#039;&#039; will follow up on Occupational Health and Safety Advisor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Pogo Car-Share (10 min) Jasmine ===&lt;br /&gt;
* EBC has a business account with Pogo - if doing business on behalf of EBC, person could use EBC&#039;s pogo account for this business. Chris set up a promo code with Pogo - a EBC member can use this and get a free membership (normally one-time fee)&lt;br /&gt;
* EBC could have some shop FOBs. Chris isn&#039;t aware of this / didn&#039;t set it up&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** We don&#039;t currently have a transportation policy - what to do if transportation is required for business activities&lt;br /&gt;
*** Could be a good idea - but how would this be controlled?&lt;br /&gt;
*** Chris isn&#039;t sure that a corporate membership would be that useful - things could be out of the zone.&lt;br /&gt;
*** The staff member that doesn&#039;t already have a POGO membership wouldn&#039;t use this. We can still reimburse volunteers for expenses. It is fairly expensive to do a run from the north to the south shop (over $20)&lt;br /&gt;
** Discussion points to the need for a travel policy...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Alberta Bikes Conference (10 min) Karl ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Promoting free tickets to the conference.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy want going to go, but didn&#039;t think the topics this year (cycle tourism) were as relevant&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon thinks we aren&#039;t doing much for outreach currently. Looking forward to next year, should develop a travel policy. If we are successful in having a surplus budget, we could get more involved in outreach - other bicycle related organization&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy noted that it was good to meet with and connect&lt;br /&gt;
** Karl did a good job promoting this, we could have done a better job responding to this&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guest discussion topics (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Phoenix Bikes - Washington - lots of outreach to groups with economic disadvantages. Big orientation to helping people with financial needs - earn a bike, fix bikes, etc. Edmonton has lots of homeless people, EBC might want to look at what Phoenix Bikes does&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy mentioned the Spoke program&lt;br /&gt;
** Phoenix bikes has a heavier orientation to social work&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon - suggested going to the North shop - a very different clientele - probably much more aligned - this is part of our mandate&lt;br /&gt;
* Proposed Bylaw Amendment&lt;br /&gt;
** Guest suggest sending out a &#039;before and after&#039; for what the amendment would mean, as it wasn&#039;t clear to him&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon clarified. We&#039;ve had good board members that have to leave the board after 4 years. We want to allow directors to stay on for more than 4 consecutive years but ... member could not serve on the executive more than 4 consecutive years&lt;br /&gt;

*Finally made contact with the adjudicator handling our Charitable Status application.  &lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** How do we decide/start being a charity after being approved&lt;br /&gt;
** When we get approved, we are - but we&#039;d have to determine when we starting making operational changes (issues tax receipts ... )&lt;br /&gt;
** Once we get it, what do we need to do to run with it&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Goodwill Warehouse still appears to be a construction zone.  May have to employ an alternate location for YCR2 October intake event&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon has emailed and called Ivan, and may call Dale with Goodwill as we need to know if this facility will be available for October intake&lt;br /&gt;
** Adrian - where is the backup? Jon - Sherwood Park - the Robin Hood center - the issue is ... after getting all the bikes back, where do they go? Hoping Goodwill space will be available for storing bikes right away&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Jonathon&#039;&#039;&#039; to find out what happens / timing after charitable status getting approval - registration of organization&lt;br /&gt;

== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Chris - Medical incident at BikeWorks (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** Incident at Bikeworks south where a volunteer had a medical incident&lt;br /&gt;
** EMS called, dealt with situation, and left&lt;br /&gt;
** Volunteer was fine, but discussed what the best procedures where in an incident like this. No clear answer to this.&lt;br /&gt;
** Volunteer is a keyholder, and comes into the shop a lot &lt;br /&gt;
** We don&#039;t have a policy about coming in on own / working on own (non-public hours)&lt;br /&gt;
** Next step - have a longer conversation about best practices&lt;br /&gt;
*** if volunteer  able to manage risk when on own? If not discourage volunteer from going to shop on own&lt;br /&gt;
*** or checking in when in shop on own&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy will have ah yeah or nay on&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Chris&#039;&#039;&#039; will have a more in depth discussion with volunteer about best practices / managing risk.&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Nancy &#039;&#039;&#039; will follow up on Occupational Health and Safety Advisor =.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Jasmine - Pogo (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** EBC has a business account with Pogo - if doing business on behalf of EBC, person could use EBC&#039;s pogo account for this business&lt;br /&gt;
** EBC could have some shop FOBs&lt;br /&gt;
** Chris isn&#039;t aware of this / didn&#039;t set it up&lt;br /&gt;
** Chris set up a promo code with Pogo - a EBC member can use this and get a free membership (normally one-time fee)&lt;br /&gt;
** Adrian said someone asked about getting a shop discount (Pogo membership) - this has been set up&lt;br /&gt;
** We don&#039;t currently have a transportation policy - what to do if transportation is required for business activities&lt;br /&gt;
** Could be a good idea - but how would this be controlled?&lt;br /&gt;
** Chris isn&#039;t sure that a corporate membership would be that useful - things could be out of the zone.&lt;br /&gt;
** The staff member that doesn&#039;t already have a POGO membership wouldn&#039;t use this&lt;br /&gt;
** Members can sign up for free&lt;br /&gt;
** We can still reimburse volunteers for expenses&lt;br /&gt;
** It is fairly expensive to do a run from the north to the south shop (over $20)&lt;br /&gt;
** Discussion points to the need for a travel policy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Alberta Bikes Conference (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** Karl was promoting free tickets to the conference&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy was going to go, but didn&#039;t think the topics this year (cycle tourism) were as relevant&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon things we aren&#039;t doing much for outreach currently&lt;br /&gt;
** Looking foward to next year, should develop a travel policy. If we are successful in having a surplus budget, we could get more involved in outreach - other bicycle related organization&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy noted that it was good to meet with and connect&lt;br /&gt;
** Karl did a good job promoting this, we could have done a better job responding to this&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guest discussion topics (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** Phoenix Bikes - Washington - lots of outreach to groups with economic disadvantages&lt;br /&gt;
** Big orientation to helping people with financial needs - earn a bike, fix bikes, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
** Edmonton has lots of homeless people , EBC might want to look at what Phoenix bikes does&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy mentioned the Spoke program&lt;br /&gt;
** Phoenix bikes has a heavier orientation to social work&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon - suggested going to the North shop - a very different clientele - probably much more aligned - this is part of our mandate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
** Suggest sending out a &#039;before and after&#039; for what the amendment would mean, as it wasn&#039;t clear to him&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon clarified this in the meeting - &lt;br /&gt;
*** we&#039;ve had good board members that have to leave the board after 4 years. &lt;br /&gt;
*** We want to allow directors to stay on for more than 4 consecutive years&lt;br /&gt;
*** but ... member could not serve on the executive more than 4 consecutive years&lt;br /&gt;

== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Chris - Medical incident at BikeWorks (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** Incident at Bikeworks south where a volunteer had a medical incident&lt;br /&gt;
** EMS called, dealt with situation, and left&lt;br /&gt;
** Volunteer was fine, but discussed what the best procedures where in an incident like this. No clear answer to this.&lt;br /&gt;
** Volunteer is a keyholder, and comes into the shop a lot &lt;br /&gt;
** We don&#039;t have a policy about coming in on own / working on own (non-public hours)&lt;br /&gt;
** Next step - have a longer conversation about best practices&lt;br /&gt;
*** if volunteer  able to manage risk when on own? If not discourage volunteer from going to shop on own&lt;br /&gt;
*** or checking in when in shop on own&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy will have ah yeah or nay on&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Chris&#039;&#039;&#039; will have a more in depth discussion with volunteer about best practices / managing risk.&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: lime;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Action Items:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Nancy &#039;&#039;&#039; will follow up on Occupational Health and Safety Advisor =.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Jasmine - Pogo (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** EBC has a business account with Pogo - if doing business on behalf of EBC, person could use EBC&#039;s pogo account for this business&lt;br /&gt;
** EBC could have some shop FOBs&lt;br /&gt;
** Chris isn&#039;t aware of this / didn&#039;t set it up&lt;br /&gt;
** Chris set up a promo code with Pogo - a EBC member can use this and get a free membership (normally one-time fee)&lt;br /&gt;
** Adrian said someone asked about getting a shop discount (Pogo membership) - this has been set up&lt;br /&gt;
** We don&#039;t currently have a transportation policy - what to do if transportation is required for business activities&lt;br /&gt;
** Could be a good idea - but how would this be controlled?&lt;br /&gt;
** Chris isn&#039;t sure that a corporate membership would be that useful - things could be out of the zone.&lt;br /&gt;
** The staff member that doesn&#039;t already have a POGO membership wouldn&#039;t use this&lt;br /&gt;
** Members can sign up for free&lt;br /&gt;
** We can still reimburse volunteers for expenses&lt;br /&gt;
** It is fairly expensive to do a run from the north to the south shop (over $20)&lt;br /&gt;
** Discussion points to the need for a travel policy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Alberta Bikes Conference (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** Karl was promoting free tickets to the conference&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy was going to go, but didn&#039;t think the topics this year (cycle tourism) were as relevant&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon things we aren&#039;t doing much for outreach currently&lt;br /&gt;
** Looking foward to next year, should develop a travel policy. If we are successful in having a surplus budget, we could get more involved in outreach - other bicycle related organization&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy noted that it was good to meet with and connect&lt;br /&gt;
** Karl did a good job promoting this, we could have done a better job responding to this&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guest discussion topics (10 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion notes:&lt;br /&gt;
** Phoenix Bikes - Washington - lots of outreach to groups with economic disadvantages&lt;br /&gt;
** Big orientation to helping people with financial needs - earn a bike, fix bikes, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
** Edmonton has lots of homeless people , EBC might want to look at what Phoenix bikes does&lt;br /&gt;
** Nancy mentioned the Spoke program&lt;br /&gt;
** Phoenix bikes has a heavier orientation to social work&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon - suggested going to the North shop - a very different clientele - probably much more aligned - this is part of our mandate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
** Suggest sending out a &#039;before and after&#039; for what the amendment would mean, as it wasn&#039;t clear to him&lt;br /&gt;
** Jon clarified this in the meeting - &lt;br /&gt;
*** we&#039;ve had good board members that have to leave the board after 4 years. &lt;br /&gt;
*** We want to allow directors to stay on for more than 4 consecutive years&lt;br /&gt;
*** but ... member could not serve on the executive more than 4 consecutive years&lt;br /&gt;

=== Executive Director&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Chris Chan addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Theme from this year has been maintenance and controlled growth. &lt;br /&gt;
* Leslie Bush, External Coordinator, left in March and we did not back-fill that position to pause and determine priorities. Keith Hallgren was hired as Bike Builder and Brendan Huynh as BikeWorks Assistant Manager.&lt;br /&gt;
* Over 3100 hours of paid shop fees at both shops which is modest growth from previous year. Volunteers know that this paid shop time is only a portion of how busy the shops are each day.&lt;br /&gt;
* YCR2 Borrow A Bike has 120 bikes to loan&lt;br /&gt;
* Membership grows 10-15% each year. Dips are noted by the May and Nov membership renewal periods. We will be looking to do a membership analysis to help us determine where our memberships are coming from...&lt;br /&gt;
* BikeWorks shops have logged over 5,000 hours between 150 volunteers during over 2,000 hours of shop time!&lt;br /&gt;
* Women, Trans &amp;amp; Gender Non-Binary Program continues to provide an important safe space to ensure we offer inclusive community space.&lt;br /&gt;
* Outreach &amp;amp; events - although we scaled back, we were still very involved in many events each month! We are also happy to see several other groups and organizations supporting bike events: Paths For People, Core Conditioning, Edmonton Economic Dev Corporation, YEG Bike Party, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Civic Representation - we are busy! Things are looking good: downtown bike network was approved, 106 st, 101 ave...&lt;br /&gt;
* The Spoke has run a few sessions but also spawned a new program called UpShift which is a partnership with Boyle Street Community Centre.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. BWS is pretty much at capacity. How can we increase membership when we are at capacity? Chris: Membership drive is mostly targeting people to renew but not necessarily to attend the shops.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Any news on what City is intending to do in Mill Creek? Chris: No further news, other than trail closures will happen in spring.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* Donations and grants were also very strong this year.&lt;br /&gt;

== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Budget 2016-7 (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* See Proposed Budget in the [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Financial_Reports Financial Reports]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Geoff addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Budgeting for more Donations &amp;amp; Grants, as well as more Program Costs (mostly for YCR2).&lt;br /&gt;
* New space for YCR2 has new capital costs $25,000 up front and option for each 3 years we will pay an additional $25k for capital costs. Funds for this is held by Inclusion Alberta and Rotary Club of Spruce Grove on behalf of YCR2. &lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Charitable Status. How will this change the financial picture? Geoff: If approved, we will be able to take donations from other charities, eg. Rotary Club (charity) would be able to donate to us; we will be able to apply for grants which are exclusive to charities; we will be able to issue tax receipts for donations. Downside: additional accounting; comply with more rigurous accounting to complete. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. How does $25k capital cost differ from rent? Geoff: When we calculated our operational costs, we estimated $5,000 p.a. Jon: We were looking at comparable size space which was below market value, but was still $21.5k per year, which is significantly more than $25k over three years. Also, Goodwill&#039;s mandate is a good match for EBC. As such, Goodwill can apply for grants which would double their capacity for matching funds if EBC is involved. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Has board discussed restrictions of charities? Geoff: Yes, considerable discussions. Board has concluded that the percentage of our time and resources currently going to &amp;quot;advocacy&amp;quot; is well below the 10% limit prescribed by charities legislation&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. In Canada, is there regulation for charity vs not-for-profit which can be put toward administration vs operations? Jon: No limitations with exception of political activity/advocacy which has max of 10% of revenues. Charities are required to file an annual report but at their discretion would determine if we are approved to continue as a charity, but there are not defined limits for administration or other areas (other than advocacy). Would have to continue delivering same programming that we stated during our application, and advise them of any changes in advance of changing, adding, removing of programs.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. If we&#039;re making bikes for kids, how does that affect our insurance? Chris: We disclose this to our insurance provider. We pay some additional theft insurance on some of our more expensive adapted bikes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: yellow;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Motion:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; To approve the 2016-2017 Budget as presented. Moved by Chris Corrigan, seconded by William. &#039;&#039;&#039;Motion Carried.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

*Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Did you consider staggered terms? Jon: Yes, but that can be difficult given the nature of the org. For example, we had 3 resignations this year due to their own personal circumstances. Geoff: We already have somewhat staggered terms due to the nature of our elections of two year term.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Will this change ability of appointments by board? Nancy: No, there is another section within by bylaws to address this.&lt;br /&gt;

See 2016 Annual Report: [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Annual_Reports http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Annual_Reports]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== President&#039;s Annual Report (15 min) === &lt;br /&gt;
* Jon W addressed the members&lt;br /&gt;
* Update on charitable status application. Application was submitted to CRA in Dec 2015 but still in review by CRA.&lt;br /&gt;
* You Can Ride Two (YCR2) program now has long term storage space for adapted loan bikes beginning today! The space is leased from Goodwill Industries on 168 St and 114 ave.&lt;br /&gt;
* Negotiated another three year lease for BikeWorks North shop space at 9305 111 ave.&lt;br /&gt;
* Governance - we have been working on several policies and procedures, financial responsibilities.&lt;br /&gt;
* Bidding farewell to Alexey, Nathan, Kathy as board members throughout the year, as well as Rachel and Anna.&lt;br /&gt;
* Since 2015 AGM, Geoff has stepped in as Treasurer.&lt;br /&gt;
* Looking forward: Membership continues to grow though my goal as President is to help boost this growth even more.&lt;br /&gt;
* Thank you to staff, volunteers, sponsors, donors, and all members!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Executive Director&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Chris Chan addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Theme from this year has been maintenance and controlled growth. &lt;br /&gt;
* Leslie Bush, External Coordinator, left in March and we did not back-fill that position to pause and determine priorities. Keith Hallgren was hired as Bike Builder and Brendan Huynh as BikeWorks Assistant Manager.&lt;br /&gt;
* Over 3100 hours of paid shop fees at both shops which is modest growth from previous year. Volunteers know that this paid shop time is only a portion of how busy the shops are each day.&lt;br /&gt;
* YCR2 Borrow A Bike has 120 bikes to loan&lt;br /&gt;
* Membership grows 10-15% each year. Dips are noted by the May and Nov membership renewal periods. We will be looking to do a membership analysis to help us determine where our memberships are coming from...&lt;br /&gt;
* BikeWorks shops have logged over 5,000 hours between 150 volunteers during over 2,000 hours of shop time!&lt;br /&gt;
* Women, Trans &amp;amp; Gender Non-Binary Program continues to provide an important safe space to ensure we offer inclusive community space.&lt;br /&gt;
* Outreach &amp;amp; events - although we scaled back, we were still very involved in many events each month! We are also happy to see several other groups and organizations supporting bike events: Paths For People, Core Conditioning, Edmonton Economic Dev Corporation, YEG Bike Party, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Civic Representation - we are busy! Things are looking good: downtown bike network was approved, 106 st, 101 ave...&lt;br /&gt;
* The Spoke has run a few sessions but also spawned a new program called UpShift which is a partnership with Boyle Street Community Centre.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. BWS is pretty much at capacity. How can we increase membership when we are at capacity? Chris: Membership drive is mostly targeting people to renew but not necessarily to attend the shops.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Any news on what City is intending to do in Mill Creek? Chris: No further news, other than trail closures will happen in spring.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Treasurer&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Geoff H addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* 2014-5 Fiscal Year end report was presented.&lt;br /&gt;
* Budgeted for $14k deficit but came in approx $14k surplus!&lt;br /&gt;
* We were given opportunity to do a casino earlier than expected which allowed us to do better than expected&lt;br /&gt;
* Donations and grants were also very strong this year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Two people signing on financial statements currently, so two other members should be on an external audit committee. Geoff: yes! Anna: We do this every other year.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Board should seek info on exact changes for accounting and record keeping requirements for charities before we become a charity. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Budget 2016-7 (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* See Proposed Budget in the [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Financial_Reports Financial Reports]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Geoff addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Budgeting for more Donations &amp;amp; Grants, as well as more Program Costs (mostly for YCR2).&lt;br /&gt;
* New space for YCR2 has new capital costs $25,000 up front and option for each 3 years we will pay an additional $25k for capital costs. Funds for this is held by Inclusion Alberta and Rotary Club of Spruce Grove on behalf of YCR2. &lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Charitable Status. How will this change the financial picture? Geoff: If approved, we will be able to take donations from other charities, eg. Rotary Club (charity) would be able to donate to us; we will be able to apply for grants which are exclusive to charities; we will be able to issue tax receipts for donations. Downside: additional accounting; comply with more rigurous accounting to complete. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. How does $25k capital cost differ from rent? Geoff: When we calculated our operational costs, we estimated $5,000 p.a. Jon: We were looking at comparable size space which was below market value, but was still $21.5k per year, which is significantly more than $25k over three years. Also, Goodwill&#039;s mandate is a good match for EBC. As such, Goodwill can apply for grants which would double their capacity for matching funds if EBC is involved. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Has board discussed restrictions of charities? Geoff: Yes, considerable discussions. Board has concluded that the percentage of our time and resources currently going to &amp;quot;advocacy&amp;quot; is well below the 10% limit prescribed by charities legislation&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. In Canada, is there regulation for charity vs not-for-profit which can be put toward administration vs operations? Jon: No limitations with exception of political activity/advocacy which has max of 10% of revenues. Charities are required to file an annual report but at their discretion would determine if we are approved to continue as a charity, but there are not defined limits for administration or other areas (other than advocacy). Would have to continue delivering same programming that we stated during our application, and advise them of any changes in advance of changing, adding, removing of programs.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. If we&#039;re making bikes for kids, how does that affect our insurance? Chris: We disclose this to our insurance provider. We pay some additional theft insurance on some of our more expensive adapted bikes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== President&#039;s Annual Report (15 min) === &lt;br /&gt;

* Update on charitable status application. Application was submitted to CRA in Dec 2015 but still in review by CRA.&lt;br /&gt;

* Negotiated another three year lease for BikeWorks North shop space at 9305 111 ave.&lt;br /&gt;
* Governance - we have been working on several policies and procedures, financial responsibilities.&lt;br /&gt;
* Bidding farewell to Alexey, Nathan, Kathy as board members throughout the year, as well as Rachel and Anna.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Executive Director&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Chris Chan addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Theme from this year has been maintenance and controlled growth. &lt;br /&gt;
* Leslie Bush, External Coordinator, left in March and we did not back-fill that position to pause and determine priorities. Keith Hallgren was hired as Bike Builder and Brendan Huynh as BikeWorks Assistant Manager.&lt;br /&gt;
* Over 3100 hours of paid shop fees at both shops which is modest growth from previous year. Volunteers know that this paid shop time is only a portion of how busy the shops are each day.&lt;br /&gt;
* YCR2 Borrow A Bike has 120 bikes to loan&lt;br /&gt;
* Membership grows 10-15% each year. Dips are noted by the May and Nov membership renewal periods. We will be looking to do a membership analysis to help us determine where our memberships are coming from...&lt;br /&gt;
* BikeWorks shops have logged over 5,000 hours between 150 volunteers during over 2,000 hours of shop time!&lt;br /&gt;
* Women, Trans &amp;amp; Gender Non-Binary Program continues to provide an important safe space to ensure we offer inclusive community space.&lt;br /&gt;
* Outreach &amp;amp; events - although we scaled back, we were still very involved in many events each month! We are also happy to see several other groups and organizations supporting bike events: Paths For People, Core Conditioning, Edmonton Economic Dev Corporation, YEG Bike Party, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Civic Representation - we are busy! Things are looking good: downtown bike network was approved, 106 st, 101 ave...&lt;br /&gt;
* The Spoke has run a few sessions but also spawned a new program called UpShift which is a partnership with Boyle Street Community Centre.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. BWS is pretty much at capacity. How can we increase membership when we are at capacity? Chris: Membership drive is mostly targeting people to renew but not necessarily to attend the shops.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Any news on what City is intending to do in Mill Creek? Chris: No further news, other than trail closures will happen in spring.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Treasurer&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Geoff H addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* 2014-5 Fiscal Year end report was presented.&lt;br /&gt;
* Budgeted for $14k deficit but came in approx $14k surplus!&lt;br /&gt;
* We were given opportunity to do a casino earlier than expected which allowed us to do better than expected&lt;br /&gt;
* Donations and grants were also very strong this year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Two people signing on financial statements currently, so two other members should be on an external audit committee. Geoff: yes! Anna: We do this every other year.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Board should seek info on exact changes for accounting and record keeping requirements for charities before we become a charity. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Budget 2016-7 (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* See Proposed Budget in the [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Financial_Reports Financial Reports]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Geoff addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Budgeting for more Donations &amp;amp; Grants, as well as more Program Costs (mostly for YCR2).&lt;br /&gt;
* New space for YCR2 has new capital costs $25,000 up front and option for each 3 years we will pay an additional $25k for capital costs. Funds for this is held by Inclusion Alberta and Rotary Club of Spruce Grove on behalf of YCR2. &lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Charitable Status. How will this change the financial picture? Geoff: If approved, we will be able to take donations from other charities, eg. Rotary Club (charity) would be able to donate to us; we will be able to apply for grants which are exclusive to charities; we will be able to issue tax receipts for donations. Downside: additional accounting; comply with more rigurous accounting to complete. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. How does $25k capital cost differ from rent? Geoff: When we calculated our operational costs, we estimated $5,000 p.a. Jon: We were looking at comparable size space which was below market value, but was still $21.5k per year, which is significantly more than $25k over three years. Also, Goodwill&#039;s mandate is a good match for EBC. As such, Goodwill can apply for grants which would double their capacity for matching funds if EBC is involved. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Has board discussed restrictions of charities? Geoff: Yes, considerable discussions. Board has concluded that the percentage of our time and resources currently going to &amp;quot;advocacy&amp;quot; is well below the 10% limit prescribed by charities legislation&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. In Canada, is there regulation for charity vs not-for-profit which can be put toward administration vs operations? Jon: No limitations with exception of political activity/advocacy which has max of 10% of revenues. Charities are required to file an annual report but at their discretion would determine if we are approved to continue as a charity, but there are not defined limits for administration or other areas (other than advocacy). Would have to continue delivering same programming that we stated during our application, and advise them of any changes in advance of changing, adding, removing of programs.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. If we&#039;re making bikes for kids, how does that affect our insurance? Chris: We disclose this to our insurance provider. We pay some additional theft insurance on some of our more expensive adapted bikes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: yellow;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Motion:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; To approve the 2016-2017 Budget as presented. Moved by Chris Corrigan, seconded by William. &#039;&#039;&#039;Motion Carried.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Special Resolution (10 min) ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: yellow;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Motion:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; To amendment the current [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Bylaws_(2014) EBC Bylaws (2014)] as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
# Strike: &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color: red; text-decoration: line-through;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; 6(g) No board member who has served four years or more consecutively shall be eligible for re-election.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# Renumber 6(h) to be 6(g).&lt;br /&gt;
# Amend (add blue section): 4(a) Duties of the Board of Directors. The Board is required to hold a meeting, which shall be chaired by an Interim Chair who shall be an outgoing Board member or a member at large, within one calendar month of the AGM. The date for this meeting must be set at the AGM. At this meeting, the Board shall elect a President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer. &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color: blue&amp;quot;&amp;gt; No person who has held any combination of these positions during each of the previous four years shall be eligible to hold any of these positions for a fifth consecutive year. &amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; The Duties of the Interim Chair shall terminate on completion of the election of officers.&lt;br /&gt;
*Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Did you consider staggered terms? Jon: Yes, but that can be difficult given the nature of the org. For example, we had 3 resignations this year due to their own personal circumstances. Geoff: We already have somewhat staggered terms due to the nature of our elections of two year term.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Will this change ability of appointments by board? Nancy: No, there is another section within by bylaws to address this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moved by Derek, seconded by Jasmine. One member stands aside. &#039;&#039;&#039;Motion Carried.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Comments from member William (5 min) ===&lt;br /&gt;
* I have been cycling for 60 years. I was on the Edmonton Solar Energy Society board of directors. &lt;br /&gt;
* Have been a member of EBC for 4 years. &lt;br /&gt;
* One thing I first noticed about BikeWorks was that the camaraderie and buzz. I was impressed! Networking, laughing, arguing, great things. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== President&#039;s Annual Report (15 min) === &lt;br /&gt;
* Jon W addressed the members&lt;br /&gt;
* EBC board is accountable for 3 main things: what we do is relevant to the public; we deliver to our mandate; what we do is sustainable for the long term.&lt;br /&gt;
* Thank to outgoing board members, continuing board members, all our volunteers, and our members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Executive Director&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Chris Chan addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Thank you to the board. My role is to enact the vision of the board and it has been a pleasure to work with them this year. &lt;br /&gt;
* Tremendous growth in our membership over past decade.&lt;br /&gt;
* Over 150 volunteers at BikeWorks who contributed 6,200 hours and over 2,200 hours of programs (courses, public hours, programs). The dedication and skill of our volunteers is really remarkable.&lt;br /&gt;
* Many high profile and well attended bike events this year. Completed a number of free presentations to workplaces about cycling.&lt;br /&gt;
* Advocacy has been very active in the city. Lots of public support for capital funding for infrastructure at City Hall.&lt;br /&gt;
* The Spoke ran a few sessions thanks to the volunteer coordinator, Tara S. She has been fantastic! However, she has had to step back so a new coordinator, Nathan, is taking the lead.&lt;br /&gt;
* You Can Ride Two has two aspects - learn to bike and adapted bike loan pool. Huge thanks to coordinator Janine H. Lent out over 100 adapted bikes with special needs this year.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Treasurer&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Jon is the temporary Treasurer and addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* 2014-5 Fiscal Year end report was presented.&lt;br /&gt;
* No surprises to the results of this fiscal year - less than 1% variance from our budget. We budgeted a $13,000 deficit and this was fulfilled. &lt;br /&gt;
* Questions from members:&lt;br /&gt;
** How will losing experienced bookkeeper affect ability to take on charitable designation? Jon: We are hiring a professional accountant to do our bookkeeping and have allocated a slightly higher budget for this. Board members and ED are familiar with financial responsibilities.&lt;br /&gt;
** How will charitable status affect EBC&#039;s ability to have surplus budgets. Jon: As long as we meet the requirements of charities, we will have no problem managing a surplus.&lt;br /&gt;
** How will charitable status affect EBC&#039;s ability to do advocacy. Jon: No more than 10% of EBC&#039;s resources would be able to be allocated to advocacy. In our research, EBC has previously spent approx 3% of our budget on advocacy. Also definition of advocacy does not include working with City on issues. Eg. EBC asks members to write to Councillors = advocacy and any resources used to organize this is less than 10%. Member: If EBC&#039;s budget increases as a charity, the 10% for advocacy would also increase. Janine: A sister oganization in Calgary has charitable status and has a $300k budget.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: yellow;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Motion:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; To approve the annual report and financial statements as presented. Moved by Robert who notes they were great reports, seconded by Liam. &#039;&#039;&#039;Motion Carried.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Budget 2015-6 (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* See Proposed Budget in the [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Financial_Reports Financial Reports]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Jon addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;

* Expecting an increase in sale revenue from BikeWorks and casinos, but new additional expense of staffing &lt;br /&gt;
* Questions from members:&lt;br /&gt;
** Why not wait until after charitable status to increase expenses? Jon: Rather than pull back on programming and lay off employees, board decided that we could tap into cash surplus. Member: Are future boards going to be addicted to tapping into cash surplus? Jon: Board has a history of being very frugal and has budgeted very well, however the cost of keeping up with demand for services and programs has outpaced current revenue. Member: Since EBC members elect the board, it is responsibility of members to elect fiscally responsible board members. Jon: One component of budget is to hire a Program Coordinator, whose job duties will be to increase funding for programs.&lt;br /&gt;
** What are the chances of NOT achieving charitable status? Jon: We are almost 100% confident we will achieve it. Research in past few years has shown that EBC is well fit for complying with all CRA requirements.&lt;br /&gt;
** How does being a charity affect our ability to run casinos? Jon: No, charities are eligible to run a casino.&lt;br /&gt;
** Janine: Impetus for charitable status is also in demand from You Can Ride Two, which has already received significant funding which are only accessible to charities. &lt;br /&gt;
** Jeff: When do you expect to achieve charitable status since this may impact when you are able to realize the expected increase in funding, especially from increase personal and corporate donations. Jon: Our budget has been created without changing our expectation of donations.&lt;br /&gt;
** Ruth: In your opinion, how much cash reserve is needed for EBC at this time? Jon: Forumla is 30% of one year&#039;s revenues. Concern is that if we continue to run deficits, we are not able to deal with unexpected events. Therefore, board felt it is critical to apply for charitable status to get back into building surplus budgets.&lt;br /&gt;
** Ruth: Comment that not for profits have balancing act. Cash reserve should be there so that you don&#039;t get into emergency situation, however the reserve shouldn&#039;t be too large either because money coming in isn&#039;t being spent on programs and services. Jon: When people donate to EBC, they can specify where those funds go toward. Eg. Funding for You Can Ride Two. How much reserve also depends on how much and what type of risks we are facing. Fortunately, we have a diversified program and services operations so we reduce our risk. If we save less than 30% of 1 year operating expenses, we do take on risk. We could have budgeted a greater deficit and run higher programming but we decided that it would be more prudent to apply for charitable status and take on this reasonable risk.&lt;br /&gt;
** Adrian: Jon&#039;s grasp on this issue is impressive! Thank you! Robert: And your grasp on this organization, its purpose, its programs is impressive. Thank you!&lt;br /&gt;

=== Executive Director&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Chris Chan addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Theme from this year has been maintenance and controlled growth. &lt;br /&gt;
* Leslie Bush, External Coordinator, left in March and we did not back-fill that position to pause and determine priorities. Keith Hallgren was hired as Bike Builder and Brendan Huynh as BikeWorks Assistant Manager.&lt;br /&gt;
* Over 3100 hours of paid shop fees at both shops which is modest growth from previous year. Volunteers know that this paid shop time is only a portion of how busy the shops are each day.&lt;br /&gt;
* YCR2 Borrow A Bike has 120 bikes to loan&lt;br /&gt;

* Women, Trans &amp;amp; Gender Non-Binary Program continues to provide an important safe space to ensure we offer inclusive community space.&lt;br /&gt;
* Outreach &amp;amp; events - although we scaled back, we were still very involved in many events each month! We are also happy to see several other groups and organizations supporting bike events: Paths For People, Core Conditioning, Edmonton Economic Dev Corporation, YEG Bike Party, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Civic Representation - we are busy! Things are looking good: downtown bike network was approved, 106 st, 101 ave...&lt;br /&gt;
* The Spoke has run a few sessions but also spawned a new program called UpShift which is a partnership with Boyle Street Community Centre.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. BWS is pretty much at capacity. How can we increase membership when we are at capacity? Chris: Membership drive is mostly targeting people to renew but not necessarily to attend the shops.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Any news on what City is intending to do in Mill Creek? Chris: No further news, other than trail closures will happen in spring.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Treasurer&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;

* Donations and grants were also very strong this year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;

** Q. Board should seek info on exact changes for accounting and record keeping requirements for charities before we become a charity. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Budget 2016-7 (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* See Proposed Budget in the [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Financial_Reports Financial Reports]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Geoff addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Budgeting for more Donations &amp;amp; Grants, as well as more Program Costs (mostly for YCR2).&lt;br /&gt;
* New space for YCR2 has new capital costs $25,000 up front and option for each 3 years we will pay an additional $25k for capital costs. Funds for this is held by Inclusion Alberta and Rotary Club of Spruce Grove on behalf of YCR2. &lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Charitable Status. How will this change the financial picture? Geoff: If approved, we will be able to take donations from other charities, eg. Rotary Club (charity) would be able to donate to us; we will be able to apply for grants which are exclusive to charities; we will be able to issue tax receipts for donations. Downside: additional accounting; comply with more rigurous accounting to complete. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. How does $25k capital cost differ from rent? Geoff: When we calculated our operational costs, we estimated $1,100. Jon: We were looking at comparable size space which was below market value, but was still $25k per year, which is significantly more than $25k over three years. Also, Goodwill&#039;s mandate is a good match for EBC. As such, Goodwill can apply for grants which would double their capacity for matching funds if EBC is involved. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Has board discussed restrictions of charities? Geoff: Yes, considerable discussions. Board has concluded that the percentage of our time and resources going to &amp;quot;advocacy.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. In Canada, is there regulation for charity vs not-for-profit which can be put toward administration vs operations? Jon: No limitations with exception of political activity/advocacy which has max of 10% of revenues. Charities are required to file an annual report but at their discretion would determine if we are approved to continue as a charity, but there are not defined limits for administration or other areas (other than advocacy). Would have to continue delivering same programming that we stated during our application, and advise them of any changes in advance of changing, adding, removing of programs.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. If we&#039;re making bikes for kids, how does that affect our insurance? Chris: We disclose this to our insurance provider. We pay some additional theft insurance on some of our more expensive adapted bikes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: yellow;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Motion:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; To approve the 2016-2017 Budget as presented. Moved by Chris Corrigan, seconded by William. &#039;&#039;&#039;Motion Carried.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Special Resolution (10 min) ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: yellow;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Motion:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; To amendment the current [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Bylaws_(2014) EBC Bylaws (2014)] as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
# Strike: &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color: red; text-decoration: line-through;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; 6(g) No board member who has served four years or more consecutively shall be eligible for re-election.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# Renumber 6(h) to be 6(g).&lt;br /&gt;
# Amend (add blue section): 4(a) Duties of the Board of Directors. The Board is required to hold a meeting, which shall be chaired by an Interim Chair who shall be an outgoing Board member or a member at large, within one calendar month of the AGM. The date for this meeting must be set at the AGM. At this meeting, the Board shall elect a President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer. &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color: blue&amp;quot;&amp;gt; No person who has held any combination of these positions during each of the previous four years shall be eligible to hold any of these positions for a fifth consecutive year. &amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; The Duties of the Interim Chair shall terminate on completion of the election of officers.&lt;br /&gt;
*Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Did you consider staggered terms? Jon: Yes, but that can be difficult given the nature of the org. For example, we had 3 resignations this year due to their own personal circumstances. Geoff: We already have somewhat staggered terms due to the nature of our elections of two year term.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Will this change ability of appointments by board? Nancy: No, there is another section within by bylaws to address this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== New Business ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Budget 2016-7 (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* See Proposed Budget in the [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Financial_Reports Financial Reports]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Geoff addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Budgeting for more Donations &amp;amp; Grants, as well as more Program Costs (mostly for YCR2).&lt;br /&gt;
* New space for YCR2 has new capital costs $25,000 up front and option for each 3 years we will pay an additional $25k for capital costs. Funds for this is held by Inclusion Alberta and Rotary Club of Spruce Grove on behalf of YCR2. &lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Charitable Status. How will this change the financial picture? Geoff: If approved, we will be able to take donations from other charities, eg. Rotary Club (charity) would be able to donate to us; we will be able to apply for grants which are exclusive to charities; we will be able to issue tax receipts for donations. Downside: additional accounting; comply with more rigurous accounting to complete. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. How does $25k capital cost differ from rent? Geoff: When we calculated our operational costs, we estimated $1,100. Jon: We were looking at comparable size space which was below market value, but was still $25k per year, which is significantly more than $25k over three years. Also, Goodwill&#039;s mandate is a good match for EBC. As such, Goodwill can apply for grants which would double their capacity for matching funds if EBC is involved. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Has board discussed restrictions of charities? Geoff: Yes, considerable discussions. Board has concluded that the percentage of our time and resources going to &amp;quot;advocacy.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. In Canada, is there regulation for charity vs not-for-profit which can be put toward administration vs operations? Jon: No limitations with exception of political activity/advocacy which has max of 10% of revenues. Charities are required to file an annual report but at their discretion would determine if we are approved to continue as a charity, but there are not defined limits for administration or other areas (other than advocacy). Would have to continue delivering same programming that we stated during our application, and advise them of any changes in advance of changing, adding, removing of programs.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. If we&#039;re making bikes for kids, how does that affect our insurance? Chris: We disclose this to our insurance provider. We pay some additional theft insurance on some of our more expensive adapted bikes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

=== Special Resolution (10 min) ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background: yellow;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Motion:&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; To amendment the current [http://edmontonbikes.ca/w/Bylaws_(2014) EBC Bylaws (2014)] as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
# Strike: &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color: red; text-decoration: line-through;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; 6(g) No board member who has served four years or more consecutively shall be eligible for re-election.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# Renumber 6(h) to be 6(g).&lt;br /&gt;
# Amend (add blue section): 4(a) Duties of the Board of Directors. The Board is required to hold a meeting, which shall be chaired by an Interim Chair who shall be an outgoing Board member or a member at large, within one calendar month of the AGM. The date for this meeting must be set at the AGM. At this meeting, the Board shall elect a President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer. &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color: blue&amp;quot;&amp;gt; No person who has held any combination of these positions during each of the previous four years shall be eligible to hold any of these positions for a fifth consecutive year. &amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; The Duties of the Interim Chair shall terminate on completion of the election of officers.&lt;br /&gt;
*Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Did you consider staggered terms? Jon: Yes, but that can be difficult given the nature of the org. For example, we had 3 resignations this year due to their own personal circumstances. Geoff: We already have somewhat staggered terms due to the nature of our elections of two year term.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Will this change ability of appointments by board? Nancy: No, there is another section within by bylaws to address this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

** Q. How does $25k capital cost differ from rent? Geoff: When we calculated our operational costs, we estimated $1,100. Jon: We were looking at comparable size space which was below market value, but was still $25k per year, which is significantly more than $25k over three years. Also, Goodwill&#039;s mandate is a good match for EBC. As such, Goodwill can apply for grants which would double their capacity for matching funds if EBC is involved. &lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Has board discussed restrictions of charities? Geoff: Yes, considerable discussions. Board has concluded that the percentage of our time and resources going to &amp;quot;advocacy.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. In Canada, is there regulation for charity vs not-for-profit which can be put toward administration vs operations? Jon: No limitations with exception of political activity/advocacy which has max of 10% of revenues. Charities are required to file an annual report but at their discretion would determine if we are approved to continue as a charity, but there are not defined limits for administration or other areas (other than advocacy). Would have to continue delivering same programming that we stated during our application, and advise them of any changes in advance of changing, adding, removing of programs.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. If we&#039;re making bikes for kids, how does that affect our insurance? Chris: We disclose this to our insurance provider. We pay some additional theft insurance on some of our more expensive adapted bikes.&lt;br /&gt;

*Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;

Geoff: We already have somewhat staggered terms due to the nature of our elections of two year term.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== President&#039;s Annual Report (15 min) === &lt;br /&gt;
* Jon W addressed the members&lt;br /&gt;
* Update on charitable status application. Application was submitted to CRA in Dec 2015 but still in review by CRA.&lt;br /&gt;
* You Can Ride Two (YCR2) program now has long term storage space for adapted loan bikes beginning today! The space is leased from Goodwill Industries on 168 St and 114 ave.&lt;br /&gt;
* Negotiated another three year lease for BikeWorks North shop space at 9305 111 ave.&lt;br /&gt;
* Governance - we have been working on several policies and procedures, financial responsibilities.&lt;br /&gt;
* Bidding farewell to Alexey, Nathan, Kathy as board members throughout the year, as well as Rachel and Anna.&lt;br /&gt;
* Since 2015 AGM, Geoff has stepped in as Treasurer.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Executive Director&#039;s Annual Report (15 min)===&lt;br /&gt;
* Chris Chan addressed the members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Theme from this year has been maintenance and controlled growth. &lt;br /&gt;
* Leslie Bush, External Coordinator, left in March and we did not back-fill that position to pause and determine priorities. Keith Hallgren was hired as Bike Builder and Brendan Huynh as BikeWorks Assistant Manager.&lt;br /&gt;
* Over 3100 hours of paid shop fees at both shops which is modest growth from previous year. Volunteers know that this paid shop time is only a portion of how busy the shops are each day.&lt;br /&gt;
* YCR2 Borrow A Bike has 120 bikes to loan&lt;br /&gt;
* Membership grows 10-15% each year. Dips are noted by the May and Nov membership renewal periods. We will be looking to do a membership analysis to help us determine where our memberships are coming from...&lt;br /&gt;
* BikeWorks shops have logged over 5,000 hours between 150 volunteers during over 2,000 hours of shop time!&lt;br /&gt;
* Women, Trans &amp;amp; Gender Non-Binary Program continues to provide an important safe space to ensure we offer inclusive community space.&lt;br /&gt;
* Outreach &amp;amp; events - although we scaled back, we were still very involved in many events each month! We are also happy to see several other groups and organizations supporting bike events: Paths For People, Core Conditioning, Edmonton Economic Dev Corporation, YEG Bike Party, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Civic Representation - we are busy! Things are looking good: downtown bike network was approved, 106 st, 101 ave...&lt;br /&gt;
* The Spoke has run a few sessions but also spawned a new program called UpShift which is a partnership with Boyle Street Community Centre.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. BWS is pretty much at capacity. How can we increase membership when we are at capacity? Chris: Membership drive is mostly targeting people to renew but not necessarily to attend the shops.&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Any news on what City is intending to do in Mill Creek? Chris: No further news, other than trail closures will happen in spring.&lt;br /&gt;

* Budgeted for $14k deficit but came in approx $14k surplus!&lt;br /&gt;

* Donations and grants were also very strong this year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
** Q. Two people signing on financial statements currently, so two other members should be on an external audit committee. Geoff: yes! Anna: We do this every other year.&lt;br /&gt;
