It’s been a while that we have had a Coordination Group meeting, and to be honest I’m a bit anxious to plan a new one.
We are about to onboard a whole bunch of new Reeflings, and I will feel more reassured if we could take a couple of next steps in distributing the leadership and planning world domination … ehm I mean the next steps towards reaching our objective of purchasing a site
Planning it on short notice seems difficult though, but let’s give it a try.
Can I also please ask you to fill in the Excel sheet that will be the basis for The Reef’s budget until April 2023? This is the internal link: https://c301.nl.tabdigital.eu/f/30903
The idea is this: decisions about money are in principle of importance level 4, so to be taken by consensus. In practice however we see that this leads to some inertia that could easily be avoided.
So if all Teams could make an estimate of all the money they think they may need (visit to Schoonschip, consultation of experts, room rental, prints, …) we can gather this in one file, briefly discuss it at the Coordination Group meeting and then quickly present it for a collective decision at the plenary meeting.
This was done in the last meeting, and written in the minutes:
A pessimistic estimate of our cash needs up to April is: 150 EUR for accounting software (though at item 4 we conclude that we will probably not need this) + 150 EUR for a small donation to a charity of choosing from the confesseurs.
