## Misc Topics

* In the future, if a machine is going to be repaired/modified and it will result in the machine being down for more than 24 hours, officers should be consulted/notified
* Full members can now get individual door codes. This is voluntary.

## Money & Budget

* RCL is currently in the black (revenue from memberships exceeds operating expenses)

* Jeep is working on a budget based on current expenses
* Space divided into 6 Departments + PR/Marketing/General Maintenance + Emergency fund
* Start by giving $1000 to each department
* Cash in excess of emergency fund would annually get split between each department. The departments would then also receive money from earmarked donations and revenue from classes that occur in each area.
* Budget will cover wear items and will allow for better tracking of donations towards large expenses
* Officer vote to implement - target April Officer Meeting for vote

## Glowforge
