Background
Greater efforts to maintain the tidiness/cleanliness of PS1 in 2019 have shed light on certain issues with PS1's current Tidy Space Policy. We propose these changes be made to clarify cleanliness and maintenance policy at PS1.
A Summary of the changes are as follows:
-Do away with Parking Requests (yellow tickets).
-Modify Green tickets so members may write their own tickets for Temporary Storage up to 72 hours unless otherwise approved by an Area Host.
-“Wut Zone” transitioned to “Temporary Storage.”
-“Limbo to be renamed “Salvage.”
-Create smaller “Sort-Me” Boxes/Zones to replace "Wut Zone" for people to place things when they don’t know where PS1-owned tools belong. How Sort-Me Boxes are categorized is at the discretion of the Area Host. (See Sort-Me Box by Drill Press in Cold Metals for example.)
-Anything not stored in Temporary Storage is able to be moved to Temporary Storage by anyone.
-Anything not Green-ticketed in Temporary Storage is liable to be red-ticketed by an Area Host.
-Online Registry is the final word for Ticketing. (Physical ticketing is an additional step to protect your belongings, but is not valid if it is not registered online.)
-Create Zones for larger temporary projects that you must reserve before using. Discuss with Area Host the length of your project beforehand and set a date to remove your items.
-Personal storage is no longer managed with Red-ticket system. Members have 2 weeks to remove belonging from an expired unit after we attempt to notify the member and then materials will be stored in Temporary Storage for 2 weeks after that. Items will then be more to Salvage if unclaimed.
