 ===== Agenda Item 1 =====
-(Bailey) put Ruth's moths on guff fridge
+(Star and Vic) put Ruth's moths on guff fridge
+Star - Ruth made really cool paper cutout moths with work machine - what if they got put on the new fridge light that's really bright? Ruth wanted to bring it to the house to make sure house is ok with it, Star brought it to house for Ruth
+Vic - perhaps putting the moths on the fridge will help prevent other kitchen moth visitors. Also ruth is the best.
+Caleb - is for the idea, does this need to be a motion or just discussion?
+David Q - if no one has anything else to discuss/add, we will leave this as a house discussion :)
 ===== Agenda Item 2 =====
-(Vic, Star) name chair where Ruth sits Ruth's corner
+(Vic, Star, and Kaycie) name corner where Papasan chair is located as Ruth's corner
+Star - this was Kaycie's idea, but thought about naming the corner with the Papasan chair Ruth's corner. Would like to put this as a motion.
+Caleb - question, could this create any unforseen legal consequences in terms of claiming exclusive rights/ownership of Ruth's corner?
+Kaycie - we will deal with that when it comes, we should just do it
+Serentiy - this sounds like a living memorial so doesn't necessarily imply ownership :)
+Motion: Name the corner where the Papasan chair is located as Ruth's Corner
+David Q - suggests that we have something official to signify Ruth's Corner at a later date
+Motion Passes: 8-1-1
 ===== Agenda Item 3 (D) =====
-(Star) codify policies for money order for initial contract signing pament wki: contract signing policies - under signing first contract - "pyment for initial contract signing must be a money order" - discuss zelle/checks and future rent payments
+(Star) codify requirement for money order for initial contract signing payment. contract signing policies - under signing first contract - "pyment for initial contract signing must be a money order" - discuss zelle/checks and future rent payments
+Star - when Timel was applying for membership and asked to pay with wise or paypal, Star looked to see what was official payment policy in the wiki, wanted to get it codified that money order is required for initial contract signing
+Cory - all information about accepted payment forms needs to be in the lease document for legal purposes - basically need to add on a vote for ammending lease to specify accepted payment forms as well as the wiki items
+Star - pulled out a contract for reference, Star would add to motion that it would specifically be in paragraph 5 in the contract. It will say in that section for initial payment must be a money order.
+Motion: "Payment for first month's rent and deposit must be a money order" - this clause will be added to paragraph 5 (titled RENT) of the CHEA Contract for Living Accomodations. It will also be added to the Sasona Wiki on the Contract Singing Policies page under the 'singing first contract' section.

 (Rowan) Scheduling CJs membership review
+Rowan - taking accountability that they missed CJ's nonperformance of labor triggered a membership review, with five charges in the month of June and two charges in the month of May. Did not text CJ until today and not sure when he's available to talk. Three weeks late on membership review, doesn't really want to have a membership review right now and wants to her from CJ about scheduling.
+Olivia - regardless of the amount of tijme that passed, membership review is much more helpful when member in question is available to talk with.
+Star - clarifying that labor non performace was from June. We should approach this differently than usual member reviews because he has been working really hard to keep up with labor with everything that has been going on, wants to know how he has been doing since May/June and that would be taken into account. Would personally feel hurt/scared
+Ruth - agrees with Star, doesn't want to portray that this is a current problem if it is not a current problem.
+David Q - based on personal contact with CJ, he has been here and attentive with coming to house to get labor done and check in on what to do with house. He knows he has a lot of labor to make up for and that it's important for the house.
+Jessi - shoutout to Rowan for doing a good job as labor czar. Would want to see if there are any recent write ups for CJ and see if maybe there can be a time scheduled and talk to CJ to see if there is something that can get nailed down for the next two weeks. Also remind CJ that if he is not able to be physically present for the meeting he can write a statement, and house is aware and understanding of his situation and has noticied that there is an uptick in the labor he has done despite the tough situations.
+Rowan - agree that it doesn't seem necessary or urgent for member review, just following policy, would be easier for all parties if instead of meber review sometime in the next six weeks have a CJ labor check-in on the agenda and a conversation about labor that doesn't need to get scheduled
+Gardenia - something that La Rea does is that to help honor policy, member review policy has a no action option built in so that member review can be more of a discussion/update. If less formal/structure works for Sasona, but if policy has requirement that some sort of house level conversation needs to happen, no action option is helpful to have a house convo with no consequences
+Star - membership review process is already non-punitive, when a mem review is called it is just a conversation
+Olivia - thank you gardenia for la rea persepctive, feels that if policy calls for it ought to follow the policy, doesn't want someone to feel like unfair. In favor of setting a placeholder date with seven full days notice would land on monday the 1st would be a good time, however that is US labor day holiday and could impact house turnout. So Tuesday the 2nd would be a good date.
+Rowan (clarifying question) - is this the date to vote on mem review?
+Olivia - proposes we set Tuesday Sept 2nd as the tenative membership review placeholder date.
+Rowan - so we're scheduling with the vision that we are rescheduling? clarifying information that CJ no shows total 7 - one was for three nudges, one was for missing a business meeting
+Olivia - scheduling with the vision that rescheduling is an option
+Motion (Olivia) - A membership review for CJ for non-performance of labor shall be proviosionally scheduled for Tuesday, September 2nd at 8pm.

 ====== New business ======
+Ruth - wanted to show the house the moths that will be over fridge light (passed them around the room!)
+Rowan - assuming part of laundry room discussion, but wanted to announce now, there's a lot of bags of laundry in the laundry room so go get them asap. Also a little bit short on laundry bags and don't have any brand new laundry room bags, so be mindful of putting laundry bags back and not leaving them in rooms
+David M - wanted to see if anyone had questions for Paul who represents Sasona and CHEA as NP (national rep)
+David Q - can Paul pass out contact info?
+Paul - happy to give out phone #
+Kaycie - why do you want to take on NP role?
+Paul - held a lot of officer positions at La Rea, lived at Sasona a decade ago, and thinks representation of Sasona and La Rea at the ntl level is importanat
+Rowan - Aug 30th there is a trans takeover of Barton Springs from 2pm to dusk
+David Q - at Barton Springs?
+Rowan - yes on the free side, will make a post to Sasona about it
