**Old Business:**
\
Kate Kerr has not sent a formal resignation letter. Office abandoned and being filled by Kevin Ethridge.
\
Officers voted in. <br>

Mary's grant got approved. Cost for ink will coming in shortly, storing in Josh's area for temp-control <br>

For changing Quorum:
\
Calculation based upon members who attend member meeting or officers meeting. Eff date 12/1/2025,
\
assuming passed. Recalculated yearly on 10/1 (date officer ballots are sent out). Voting by proxy still
\
counted as vote. Votes count as being in a meeting. Voting makes you a contributing member of that
\
meeting.
\
Additional provision: discrepancy reviewed by officers by vote
\
This does not take away anyone's right to vote. Everyone is encouraged and counts. We just need this
\
for significant events and expenditures.
\
65 members, 40% is 26. we have to have 33 votes. Took a month to get 32 <br>

Bill attended PeoriaCon. A whole lot of stuff was sold we could make in a heartbeat, kids drop a lot of
\
$ to get in. It is the right audience. Just as a thought to attract younger members.
\
Disagreement due to price and engagement – huge problem with commitment to events.
\
Please don't do call-outs on Slack, send direct messages instead. It turns people off Slack. No
\
one/Everyone accountable, comes back to commitment. Officers – pleas monitor Slack and stay
\
engaged. <br>

Motion approved for the financial report. <br>

Everything from last meeting has been received, purchase-wise. Intro to Arcdroid done Thursday, old
\
one posted for sale on FB for $650, will take $600. Current offer for $500, internal member. Figure
\
reached by comparing shipping/restocking fee.
\
Thank you Mike for posting an agenda call. <br>

**New business:** <br>

Color InkJet printer: member brouigth one in and we fixed it up so it could expand the capabilities of a
\
Cricut. Cricut has Print & Cut and we have that already. $220 dollars. If additional is needed, can
\
approved later\
Debate on InkJet/laserjet/other printer/DTF ensues.
\
Benefits: 3d stickers and vinyl
\
It passes, purchase authorized. <br>

\

\

\
More fidgets needed
\

\
We are a Makerspace. It is everyone's responsibility to read and understand the eyewear issue. There
\
are several pairs of UV eyeglasses in the plasma cutter area. If you personally need you need more
\
protection, feel free to use. We are at +2 the requirements. They are for CNC and plasma, NOT for
\
welding or hand-cut plasma welding. The req meeting are for CNC.

**Official proposal:**
\
Proposed Bylaws Amendment: Quorum Calculation
\
Purpose: To amend the current method of calculating quorum to better
\
reflect active membership.

\

\
membership is defined as individuals who hold a full or family
\

\
least one of the following within the previous 12 months:
\

\

\
Quorum: will be Recalculated yearly Oct 1 to establish the new
\
Quorum for officer election and other business that requires a Quorum
\
for the following 12 months
\
Proxy/Virtual vote will count as attending a meeting
\
Additional Provisions: Any discrepancies or disputes regarding active
\
membership status will be reviewed by officers.
\
Note:Members who do not attend a listed event still have the right
\
and are encouraged to vote. The vote will still be counted as normal
\
but will not affect the base Quorum number.
