(EM) Reduce frequency or quantity from KAF

David: i see where ella is coming from. asking kaf for more or less can happen. we are doing them a favor. they have to do something with it. i am presenting the point. we can make specificiations. if we say we want more or less items, its a spoiled thing. ella wants to know if we can change the frequency for every 2 weeks.

ruth: since we started kaf, it has made food very plentiful. before that, we were having to increase food budget. food prices have continued to go up. i think it is benefiting the house a whole lot. i think we got kaf because mae was doing it. she knew all the people and she spit us into the system. i dont know if we would have gotten it otherwise. i would encourage you to think about it. do you want kaf or devote more money to house budget.

eevee: i know we did not increase our food budget. our rent will go up because we dont know what its like. davids position is that other co-ops will pay $100 or more per person. we are saving a lot of money by doing kaf. its a lot harder to get something going as ruth spoke about. even its

shane: we get tuna wraps, bread. ill see the whole box is gone. are we all getting stuff out of it. we should all have a fair amount of tunas.

david: i can speak for ella and myself. ella thinks its too much food. people arent taking the things.

kyle: if there isnt an easy majority on this. we can get some info on unknowns. we dont know about that. the other one is how much is changing.

david: the next person who is voted kaf buddy.

david: the idea of taking kaf and changing the frequency of it. that wont work (david). brigid as ella: ella puts in a lot of free hours for kaf. ella doesnt get as much benefit. i do think the tuna that doesnt get eaten. the rest is not getting thrown away. ella likes the way people smile.

bailey: first we finish stack before we extend. people should have a couple of days before we leave. we know we dont need flowers. we dont know what we may or may not need. i have been here when

eevee: for budgeting, we didnt account for the difference of ruths contributions for our food budget. we will probably experience a hit. i dont want ot

david: ella - you cant make decisions for the cooperative unitlaterially. people dont understand what kaf actually is. one week we are going to get 2 boxes and next week 6. these things should go to kitchen kaiser. we should ask for volunteers. i cant take the stuff to the homeless. la rey is also

bailey: i wanted to say until relevantly recently it was labor of love for cheng and mae. i think it should be 2 lumps. there are a lot of things that take a lot of work that dont get accounted properly. before it was whoever was home. i like davids idea and suggestion. if you around, help david.

david: kitchen is in a disaree. we are spoiled from kaf. if we didnt, we would be more appreciative of what we have.

(Brigid) Approve early lease termination for Vic (7/26 instead of 7/31) without requiring contract break fee

brigid: as membership cordinator, my job is to get people out of here. it is legal to do. vic is needing to move out a few days before. im hoping to let them go and not have to pay the contract break fee.

eevee: as treasurer, full contract fee

(Brigid) add item “clean sink strainer with bristle brush to remove all build up” to DS bathroom weekly checklist

Brigid: recently added strainer to ds bathroom sink bc people losing things. gets gross fast. want to make sure people should clean.

david: adding something that says “what you should do in a sink or not”. for example, hair in the sink vs trash can. maybe a helpful guide on what to do when. toothpaste on the sign.

kyle: i appreciate intiative. my worry about a rule - is that experiment going to last so im

brigid: we could say if present“

ruth: in the past we had a different strainer. i have a 3d printer and can send you one

brigid: it could still have that added.

david: some people will not do whats required no matter what. some people will look at list and say this is authoritarian thing. people knowing what to do is not the only thing. heart meeting about topics like this could be a good idea. maitenence cordinator could

brigid: i motion to add to the darkside bathroom weekly cleaning checklist “if present, scrub drain strainer”

(bailey) re-do CJs membership review for non performance

bailey: i sent out a long email describing why we need to redo membership review if your curious about it go read email. the language did not match with the physical postings. these are automatic and are not for adjudacation. it did not align. after talking with david m, he encouraged me to send out an email describing each specific policy. typically membership reviews are posted by stewards. i want to make sure we can make sure me vic and cj can be here.

david: i wasnt there becaus eof medical conditions. it doesnt sound like it was done right. the steward wasnt available or didnt come. there are things that are non negotiable. it wasnt done properly. we cant keep hotwiring everything

eevee: i ask for rescheduling for a weekday so i can be there.

kyle: playing some catch up in terms of our processes. whats confusing to me is there was a couple meetings how participation of when we are available for us. it was a multi week process of getting everyones availability and cjs. im confused that the steward had to be there. it feels confusing to here that after a verdict. how much is this is because of the verdict.

bailey: our membership review is very thorough because this is the legal documentation we will have if someone takes someone to court. i think part of the reason for this is because of miscommunication between me, ella and kyle. this was difficult for me and i apologize for that. we do need a weeks notice. i was thinking of proposing next tuesday. we need to put it on the agenda for people to vote on.

eevee: with the discussion of legality and describing it as a verdict, it feels that is something that is guilty. the verbage i didnt like. can we expect that more people will be lined up.

kyle: from what i know, it was the automatic trigger from non performance. we plan on upholding the current rules.

bailey: i want to speak to fear that my brother was talking about. i think thats why membership reviews is for inquiry. its supposed to be a check in. why are you not doing these things? how can we support you. thats what a membership review is what its about. maybe the conversation should have been about communication. i dont think its good to assume bad intentions on cjs part. its supposed to have the opposite

david: if were not there to look at it, the only way to stop that is to be present. the reason is because you werent there. were suffering a systematic. he would do his responsibilities for years. cj's looking at how everyone else is not doing

eevee: to follow up on what kyle is saying, i have admitted to non performing on my roles. am i going to be put up to eviction. there are plenty of roles that are not accountable. is it based on timing of labor. ive seen cj who sees dishes. he doesnt want to wake up people and wait. then its past the time. i dont want to set the precedent if thats what were going to do everytime.

kyle: something im noticing is that tonights attendence is mostly folks who were not at the review. as someone who was there, there was care and desire for cj to have been there. there were people who said this have been 5-6 reviews. no one wanted to punish i didnt sense that myself. my ask is it might be helpful in processing to read minutes that might fill in some info. im curious about david to say if you can go on thursday where we can get more info on thursday.

bailey: based on our house policies, it did not follow it. the entire thing is void. we need to reschedule it. i know after 8 is best for our cooks and weekdays

bailey motions to schedule cj's membership review for non performance of labor for tuesday july 21st 2026 at 8pm in the dining room

MOTION PASSES

kyle: is that for stewards positon to change this?

david: i suggest we take this as a reset. its not about the review. it has to do with us in the community. if people are not available, i could not do it based on physical positions. trying to partake. its supposed to be this way. cj is a reflection of the community and of us. we have another chance to look at this. im going to try to do my best.
