Maker Faire is Coming Up!
- Start thinking about projects you've made or you hope you will have made that you'd like to show off at Maker Faire!
- We also need a lot of volunteers to help out with the tent.
- We'll also have a section of the tent for vendors.
- Nate offers help and feedback on how to present and write up any projects you have that you'd like to show off.
Pets clause added to standing rules
- We have only had a handful of incidents in the last ten years with pets being a problem to members or other members' pets.
- We should have a policy so it is unambiguous what is expected from our members to be responsible with their pets.
Discussion:
- Nate: Has this been a problem? He has observed many dogs here over the years with no issue.
- Mel: Yes, her dog arrived at the space on a leash when another dog was not, and others had to intervene quickly to prevent an incident when it seemed that the unleashed dog was acting aggressively.
- Jamie: It's common in most places to require a leash for pets. Aggression issues can be exacerbated when one dog is on a leash and another isn't.
- Mark: does not want to be responsible for keeping a dog from eating lead off the E-Lab floor.
- Jody: Ferndale does have a leash law for public spaces.
- Justin: Should we specify the length of the leash?
- David: We should address that if it becomes a problem a problem.
