Background

We signed the lease for the 3515 Elston and move in soon. The space planning committee created three floor plans for the combined space. Through a survey, the full members selected plan #1 (insert link).

This Build-Out vote describes the initial build-out of the combined space. The type of wall or partition required to separate woodworking and hot metals has not been determined, so an estimate for that is not included. A vote for additional money for the wall may be necessary.

The 2016 budget vote allocated $5000 for build-out. The expenses for the activities listed below should fall within that budget. If there are unforeseen expenses another vote may be necessary.

• HVAC
  • Install AC in new lounge. $300
  • Install a 4" ventilation duct and fan in the clean CNC room to be used by the laser. The roof perforation will be done by a professional roofer. Interior ducting can be done by volunteers. Makeup air? Materials: ducting, elbows, hangers. $300
  • Install ventilation duct and fan for the kitchen. Use the duct currently used by the laser. $300
  • Install ventilation duct and fan for small metals (jewelry). $300
  • Move dust collection system for woodworking. Materials: ducting, elbows, wyes, hangers blast gates. Purchase new filter for the Jet collector to aid with the transition to the new system. $900

• Upgrade the lighting.

Language

We authorize the board to spend up to $xxxx for tools, materials, supplies and services to buildout plan X.

We also authorize the board to select a project manager who will create a plan, track expenses, organize volunteers and hire contractors. The project manager will provide periodic reports to the board. The project manager will consult with the membership, area hosts, board and space planning committee when appropriate.

The funding for this vote will expire at the end of 2016.
