Trello things

New Business

  • Drew forwarded us a corporate grant for "Chicago nonprofits that impacts education in Chicago or helps provide Chicago youth with technology for educational purposes." RT ticket: #133.
  • Discuss lounge and upstairs mold situation; possible mitigation needed. See "discussion" page for more details; have mold specialist Ed Chambers who can assist.
  • Hot Metals area host.

Old Business

  • Area host debit cards - Pex.
    • $50 fee to open account - we get 2 months with no per-card fees. We could try it for a fairly limited investment. Area hosts are not currently spending their money - anything to help them would be worth trying.
