Discussion on the Bike Works North renovations. We have budgeted $10,000 for renovations. We will pursue grant options and fund raising through the launching event.

The board agrees to move forward on the expenditure of up to $10,000 for BWN renovations.


=== Volunteer Survey update - Nancy (15 min) ===Tabled until next meeting
=== Executive Committee update on staffing models - Jeremy and Nancy (30 min)===
*
* Meeting with Executive and HR Committee, decided these two committees would lead this
* Primary directive of our board is governance rather than operations
** Previous staffing structure wasn't working, so instituted interim model in which an administrative committee takes on operational responsibilities
** Admin committee was responsible for 4 responsibilities from different jobs.  Now need to reintegrate those responsibilities into existing positions.
*Steps going forward: 
# confirm position descriptions,
# ensure alignment with strategic direction of the board,
# validate positions with staff members,
# determine if there are any gaps,
# implementation timeline,
# staff performance appraisal
* Jonathan still interested in acting as liaison

* To start the planning well in advance, will begin planning and reach out to board members for support in coming months.


=== Annual General Meeting Location - Jasmine (5 min)
=== BWN Renovations and Associated Costs - Geoff (15 min) ===
*
* Geoff would like to discuss BikeWorks North renovation commitment given various other items from budget
** shop fee increase was in the budget for the whole year, and did not happen (will only be in for 3 weeks of the fiscal year)
** had significant rental income in the budget - we've cancelled that program (and it was over estimated)
** had significant grant revenue increases in budget - my understanding is Molly doesn't think that will happen
** on the up side, we are ahead on bike sales as of the end of April
* Geoff suggests it is risky to commit to expenses, without doing some fundraising first, especially since we expect we will not hit budget on various other items
* Fundraising ideas are in the works for the coming year.
** Smaller fall bike sale
** Crowdsourcing funds for renovated BWN
