=== Low Income Accessibility of Our Shops (10 min)=== | === Low Income Accessibility of Our Shops (10 min)=== | ||
* | * We have a beautiful new BWS that's about to open, but it has far less room than our previous locations. With limited storage space and no yard, the cheap department store bikes will likely be pushed out. | ||
* A policy of limiting which donations are accepted at the south shop (due to lack of space) has also been discussed. | |||
* These changes will be positive in a number of respects, but will also make bikes less accessible to low income patrons. | |||
* In addition, having one shop which may appear to be more upper scale than the other, in both its facilities and bicycles, may be divisive among our members and volunteers. | |||
* How do we want to address these issues? | |||
