** Jon: base rent remains unchanged from previous lease. Variable rent has changed (incr by $168/mo). This incl property tax, snow removal, etc. Neil: This is due to property taxes, which almost doubled this year. Jon: Read in earlier lease convos that BW could apply for property tax exemption. Neil: This may change if we become a charity. There are 2 categories for exemptions: building would have to be owned by a NFP. So we would not likely succeed in getting a property tax exemption.

** Anna: Previously, we had 4 tabs on the budget - Overhead costs, BWS budget, BWN budget, and Total. Could separate out two more tabs - YCR2 budget and Spoke budget? This would allow us to give YCR2 and Spoke their annual budget that is distinct and precise. If they can track their own revenue & expenses and confirm with our monthly financial reports, I think they will have better understanding of their financial capacities.

** Geoff: When YCR2 presented to us last month, they seemed to be looking for integration with EBC. Jon: I"m only speaking about financial. Operationally would all continue to be integrated but that EBC would be compensated for the soft costs of keeping the org running. There is a lot of value in having a fully functioning board and org to help them go. But financially, they need ability to plan out how they are going to run their program, how to manage their funds, etc. Neil: They have other bank accounts with other organizations (eg. Rotary). Jon: Rotary funding was a condition because $ had to be held by charity so EBC could not do that.

** CHris CH: Instead of management fee, could we incorporate fees into their project for overhead? Neil: Yes, if they want to be more integrated and be seen more like a department of EBC (more like BW) which is a distinction in the software that I use to track costs and revenues. This would be easier to assign a department a budget.

** '''Bikeology donation'''? Adrian: I was on their board last year and didnt receive arts council grant for this year. Neil: BUdget should be what we expect to spend, so if we are not expecting to spend it we should leave it out. If it comes up, then we can make a decision at that time to alter the budget.

** Nancy: Is there opportunity for other organizations that we may want '''seed funding''' to support them? IF we put $1k in the budget, let other orgs know we have $ available, then we can allocate it to them as it comes up. Anna: I like the idea of $1k that we could give out as $250 to 4 initiatives/events or $1k to a big one. Chris Ch: How would this affect charitable status? Jon: We could not support other organizations if we were a charity. Anna: Could support other "events"? Chris: Should we just add this $ to the Events line?

** Jon: Are there intangible benefits? Coreen: Yes! This position frees me up a lot, help to manage the shop, teach volunteer, teach classes/workshops, has been some of the most important support I have been getting! Everytime BB is doing something that is not building bikes, it is literally covering other things that BW needs to have done. Alex: Should consider calling it something else other than BB if this is not the full nature of the position. Chris Ch: Need to have a conversation about what staffing needs are. Jon: Current budget is $7k to BB position. What is revenue from BB? Chris: I only have data for first 2 months which was less than what we were getting in bike sales when you factor in wages and hours spent on building bikes. There are a lot of estimations so income didnt increase by emplying bike builder.

** Jon: Did bikes fetch higher price than they would have if volunteer have repaired? Chris: My estimation is that BB does add much more value to bikes. Jon: Can we express that in terms of how much we pay the BB?

** CHris: Starting date of April? Coreen: Spring sale event has been a huge event in the past both in sales and community excitement. CHris: Based on data I do have, I would be comfortable keeping this in budget as is. Chris: Would like to start BB in Feb to get bikes ready for April. Coreen: If strictly as BB position, not necessary to retain over winter, could start in Feb. But BW could do with more staff hours though. Go to end of August for Sept back-to-school rush.

** Neil: Bookkeeper position. Currently in budget but assumption is it will be someone "in house." Someone external/professional would cost probably double. Finding someone who does this a lot for a few other NFP would be best option. Coreen: Would this work load increase if we go to a charity? Neil: Could be a number of months for CRA to review and approve application, so more likely for 2017. But yes, it would be more admin and paperwork!

* Jon: We can afford to run a deficit budget this year.  Neil: Needs to be a plan for how its not going to be a permanent deficit. Jon: Plan is that we have decided to move to become a charity. We dont know what that means in terms of additional revenue, but we will know what happens in the first year (likely 2017). Then we will be able to know how and by how much we can get out of deficit. Nancy: We need the capacity to be able to work toward charitable status. Cutting back on any staffing at this point that would help us move forward is not an option to me. Coreen: Who is going to be writing these additional grants when we are a charity, etc.

** Chris Ch: With $300k budget, this is about a 3-4 month reserve. Neil: If all other revenue got cut off other than our casino, so net of our casino we are at $260k which is 4-5 months if no other revenue alone. Chris: Program Coordinator will go up to 40 in Oct (20 of that would come from YCR2 acct). Outreach will go to 30 hrs in Oct and begin benefits.

** Geoff: Should we '''increase shop fees'''? They are ridiculously low! Alex: How much is your income? Chris: Coreen and I have been discussing ways to get people to donate. Dont want to impact shop fees for people for whom $2/hr is a consideration. Could do $2/hr or $3/hr pay-it-forward rate, where the pay-it-forward rate would go toward those who do not have the means to pay.
** Nancy: How long has it been $2/hr? Coreen: 4-5 years? I think it was higher before for non-members and free for members. We do currently get quite a few donations. Nancy: Many people pay by card. Can we add donation option on machine? Coreen: There is a tip option currently but tip is perceived differently than donate. There is not an option to add donation.
** Coreen: we have talked about a lot of options, but is a balance between keeping it accessible to those who need it without stigmatizing their situation.
** Jon: BWN has many instances where patrons are literally pulling coins from their pocket before they begin and cant make the fee. Without burdening volunteers to ask at end of service to say "If you appreciate this service, we would appreciate your donation." We could have a sign that says "Lowest shop fees in North America! Donate if you appreciate this!"
** Alex: Would like to find a way to solicit people who are able to donate more.
** Nancy: Like the idea of a 'pay it forward' rate. Could be a sign. Coreen: "Would you like to donate to the Accessibility Fund"? Chris: Phrasing it as something that you can buy vs something that you can donate.
** Alex: Need one of those coin machines that swirl your donated coin around... Chris: We have the cat! Coreen: Need the cat in a more prominent spot!
** Nancy: Could do a VIP access to shop for a fee? Coreen: Considered something like this for alternate WTGNB day but pitched to volunteers and they turned it down so it stopped there. Alex: Having diff hierarchies of shop use is a slippery slope...
** Jon: We provide a service for people who cannot bring their bike anywhere else. Thats why we have the rates we do and if we can get donations from people who can afford it, great. But strata of members based on $ is not our goal.
** Coreen: Our higher end bikes have increased in cost, and the patrons who buy those bikes still see that they're getting a great deal. Leveraging the high end stuff is really important to our bottom line, because it gets the funding from those who can afford it.

** Alex: I will be resigning at AGM.
** Dan: Continuing!
** Chris: Who was appointed in 2014? Geoff, Nancy, Adrian, Alexey, Dan. These folks need to be officially voted in by members.
** Jon: Term is currently '''max 4 years'''. Is this necessary? Dan: My experience is that usually people burn out before they are at 4 years and the limit is not a concern. Anna: Helpful with the Executive positions (Pres, VP, Sec, Tres) but I would be ok with having no term max for other board members.
**Nancy: I think this would be a nice option for board members with limit only applying for 4 Executive positions.
** Anna: Would need to put this bylaw amendment forward to members in Special Resolution before Sept 13 (before next board meeting).
** Jon: For example if I am Pres for 4 years, I end my term as Pres, no one is at next AGM for pres, I put my name forward, get voted in. Is that ok? Or I put my name forward to be Treasurer and am uncontested.
** Chris: Exec positions are appointed by board. Would have to note in bylaws that Board members cannot appoint an Executive member for more than 4 years. Technically there is room in the current bylaws to take 1 year off and return.
