No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
B
A
B
B
C
D
I
just
got
word
from
Barton
there's
a
bug
that
the
holds
awaiting
pickup
when
you
upgrade
from
1611
to
1705
the
expiration
date
on
all
of
the
whole
list.
Changes
to
the
date
that
you
upgrade,
and
so
the
holds
awaiting
pickup
holds
over
the
next
number
of
days
will
reset.
None
of
those
will
show
up
correctly
until
because
all
of
the
whole
expiration
dates
are
being
reset
to
the
date
of
the
upgrade.
So
there's.
E
F
G
You
there's
something
you
can
set
that
you
can
now
set
to
the
version
number
or
prevent
that
from
happening.
You
probably
have
reference
to
stable
old,
stable
or
something
like
that.
Yes,
the
use
of
version
number
is
now
in
support
of
that
is
greatly
appreciated.
My
I
put
mine
because
I'm
not
in
a
hurry
to
grade
to
1711,
because
I've
been
running
1705
for
a
while
and
so
I
changed.
My
line
to
1705
so
I
know
I'll,
be
on
the
1705
thread
for
a
while.
Yet
I
know.
F
B
But
when
you
do
a
check-in
when
on
the
check-in
screen,
there
is
now
counters
next
to
the
patron
name,
we're
showing
how
many
other
items
that
they
have
checked
out
and
it's
believed
that
that
process
may
be
slowing
the
chicken.
So
we're
investigating
to
see
whether
or
not
that's
the
case
or
not,
but
they're
reporting
that
you
know
if
a
person
has
you
know
other
checkouts,
it
can
slow
down
the
the
process
and
I
think
you
know,
I
think
they
were
saying
that
it
was
slowing
it
down.
B
He
was
slowing
it
in
about
three
or
four
seconds
per
check-in,
and
if
you
are,
if
you're
checking
in
all
day,
I
mean
that's
three
to
four
times
longer
for
your
day,
doing
check-ins,
and
so
that's
you
know
three
or
four
seconds
doesn't
sound
very
significant
for
a
single
item,
but
when
you're
doing
a
lot
of
violent
items
in
a
day,
that's
that
adds
up
to
be
a
lot.
So
isn't
there
a
system.
D
H
D
Least
well,
and
if
you've
got
you
know,
if
you've
got
things
from
a
lot
of
different
patrons.
If
it's
gathering
data
from
like
you
know,
if
you've
got
it
set
really
high
and
you
get
a
gathering
data
from
a
whole
bunch
of
different
patrons,
that's
gonna
slow
it
down
than
if
you've
just
got
the
like
the
last
five
or
ten,
then
you're
only
going
to
be
getting
from
a
few
patrons
instead
of
from
a
whole
bunch
of
patrons.
So
that
might
make
a
difference
there.
The.
D
B
A
Supposed
to
report
back
on
text
messaging
because
we
are,
though
we
took
that
plunged,
it
all-
seems
to
work.
Fine.
The
only
thing
that's
still
not
working,
which
we
knew
was
over
dues
and
we're
not
sure
we
want
to
send
those
was
text
anyways,
but
before
the
check
or
the
pre
due
notices
advance
due
notices
and
the
whole
field.
I
A
Hope
filled,
weren't
working
and
those
are
working
fine
for
us
now.
So
that's
exciting.
The
biggest
thing
we've
run
into
with
that
is:
we've
got
people
that
have
like
straight
talk,
phones
and
they
don't
always
list
what
network
they're
on.
So
people
have
to
go
out
and
figure
out
that
it's
actually
running
on
a
verizon
network
and
put
that
in
as
their
provider
to
get
the
text
to
work.
One.
H
Of
the
things
I've
noticed
about
the
texting
is,
and
I
could
be
wrong
about.
This
is
depending
on
the
per
character
limit
and
what
you
haven't
cut
off
the
text
at
a
certain
point,
so
it
doesn't
give
them
oh,
but
it's
not
consistent
and
I
haven't
figured
out
what,
because
I've
only
got
limited
access
to
providers,
yeah.
A
We
set
up
the
the
templates
to
be
really
really
short,
so
I
haven't
noticed
that
anywhere
yet,
but
that's
something
today
to
watch
for
sure,
cuz,
yeah,
yeah
and
then
the
other
thing
my
frustration
had
to
upgrade
was
inventory.
They
did
some
yeah
George,
just
like
the
free
carrier,
lookup,
that's
what
we've
been
telling
people
to
use
to
figure
out
there
straight
talks
as
well,
but
for
inventory
there
were
some
improvements
that
took
away
some
functionality
with
when
you
upload
an
inventory
file.
A
It
doesn't
tell
you
if
the
item
was
checked
out
and
they
checked
it
in
it
just
happens.
There's
a
new
checkbox
it'll
disabled,
which
is
okay,
and
then
it
also
doesn't
tell
you
if
it
flipped
an
item
over
from
lost.
It
just
does
it
so.
On
the
other
hand,
there
are
a
few
new
options
where
you
can
actually
export
the
results
to
an
Excel
report
which
is
nice.
It
skips
the
whole
step
of
marking,
things
lost.
A
A
B
J
B
Okay,
all
right
so
we'll
move
on
I'm,
gonna
interject-
something
here
just
we
haven't
done
this
before
I-
see
that
we
have
a
lot
of
participants
today
and
I
just
want
to
briefly
go
around
and
have
everybody
introduce
themselves,
because
we
don't
do
this
all
the
time
and
there
are
some
new
faces
and
new
people
here.
So
I
wanted
to
say
hello
to
everybody.
I
D
The
co
US
vice
president,
I'm
george
williams,
at
work
for
northeast
Kansas
library
system
in
Lawrence,
Kansas.
B
B
I
L
B
M
H
J
Q
A
P
J
E
N
N
So
one
of
those
is
a
GoSee
link
at
the
top.
It
says
about
kaha
us,
that's
going
to
list
the
board
members
and
membership
and
information
like
that
learned
from
kohai
us
I
just
need
to
move
over
the
past
conference
information
and
there's
some
things
on
the
wiki
that
were
sort
of
sequel
report
based
stuff
and
things
like
that
move
that
over,
but
that
shouldn't
take
too
long.
N
So
some
of
you
have
seen
this
kind
of
evolve
and
thanks
thanks
thanks
for
your
patience
as
it
has,
I
was
kind
of
optimistic
and
getting
it
done
sooner
than
I
had
earlier.
But
it's
it's
on
a
good
path.
So
this
is
the
opening
screen
I'm.
If
you're,
looking
at
it
and
I'm
sure
my
screen
up
it'd
be
helpful.
Yeah,
oh
I
want
to
go
ahead.
I'll
do
that.
N
N
N
This
morning,
I
thought
maybe
I
should
say,
join
koha
us,
because
this
page
here
has
sort
of
the
three
options
you
can
sort
of
get
involved
from
my
information
gathering
so
far
so
like
enjoyed
and
let's
serve,
there's
there's
a
talk
about
the
mentoring
program
and
you
can
join
so.
The
listserv,
of
course,
would
link
out
to
the
listserv
page
where
you
can
join
there.
N
N
My
thought
was
that
the
people
I'm
working
with
on
this
they
could
help
me
refine
the
language
as
well
as
you
all
I,
just
kind
of
wrote
something
here
and
then
there's
kind
of
a
forum
where
you
could
fill
it
out
and
say
you
know,
I
want
to
you
know:
connect
with
a
mentor
or
I
want
to
be
a
a
mentor
and
then
the
donation
page
same
thing,
I'm,
sort
of
or
door
the
join
page
rather
for
for
membership,
I,
again
just
kind
of
put
together
some
text
in
a
form
that
of
data
that
I
thought
might
be
needed
for
that
and
that
sort
of
the
joining
page
and
then
the
donate
page
is
here
and
I'm
sort
of
having
the
three
ways
to
donate.
N
I
just
need
to
pull
in
the
PayPal
logo.
The
Amazon
smile
thing
I
know:
I
helped.
Someone
put
that
on
the
wiki
I
need
to
grab
that
code
and
put
that
here
once
I
do
that
this
should
be
in
pretty
good
shape.
So
that's
it!
So
far.
It's
pretty
simple
site
right
now,
once
I
put
up
the
learned
information
in
the
about
page,
that's
so
the
content
I
have
that's
basically
on
the
wiki
plus
some
things
that
we
had
talked
about
in
meetings
about
ideas,
about
the
mentoring
thing
in
the
sort
of
membership
information.
N
Would
really
like
any
kind
of
feedback
in
terms
of
language
again
I,
just
kind
of
wrote
up
some
stuff
thinking
like
this
might
be
an
approximation
of
the
language
and
the
form
as
well.
I
was
like,
oh,
they
probably
want
like
institution
name
and
this
information,
but
that
could
be
different
than
what
I
want
so
yeah.
So
any
feedback
or
suggestions
would
be
appreciated.
N
Again.
I
will
add
the
last
bits
of
content
probably
next
week
and
then
send
that
out
to
the
list
with
all
the
content
there
and
then,
if
it
looks
good,
we
can
formally
put
it
on
the
server
space
that
we
have
for
this
and
make
sure
the
forms
are
all
working
and
go
from
there.
So
yeah
any
feedback
is
as
as
much
is
much
appreciated.
I.
N
Yeah,
so
it
sounds
like
there's
some
good
feedback
on
this
and
I'll
send
a
link
out
to
the
list.
Cuz
I
wanna
make
sure
that
that
everything
is
great
in
the
language
is
good
and
I'm
sort
of
communicating
the
right
messages,
so
I
think
having
eyeballs
on
that
to
see
that
that's
good
would
be
helpful
to
a
Michael.
Q
N
N
Q
Like
we're
a
little
lacking
because
I
don't
think
we
meet
until
the
end
of
January
and
I'd
really
like
to
try
to
work
on
this
even
sooner
George,
maybe
or
John
anybody.
If
we
have
any
ideas
about,
you
know
how
maybe
we
could
have
a
meeting,
but
maybe
a
separate
meeting
just
to
discuss
the
website
and
what
we
can
do
to
work
with
Michael.
G
D
N
B
B
P
P
G
B
You
got
it
all
right,
so
this
is
the
membership
form
that
were
working
on.
It
will
ask
for
an
email
address
and
name
library
organization.
If
you
choose
to
answer
that
one,
it's
not
required
address
state.
That
way.
We
know
where
everybody's
coming
from
how
we
can
contact
you,
some
information
about
your
organization
if
you're
part
of
consortium,
so
this
I
did
ask
for
mentoring
information
here
too
so
Michael
we
can
kind
of
coordinate
between
the
membership
form
and
sighs
birds.
That's
going
to
service
the
best
I
thought
you
know
getting.
B
Information
about
mentoring
here
was
good
because
we're
going
to
be
gathering
membership,
information,
fresh
and
new,
so
I
doubt
we're
going
to
have
any
established
members
that
we're
gonna
go
in
there
and
do
the
mentoring
thing,
but
maybe
they'll
update
it.
I,
don't
know
we'll
see
we'll
talk
about
that.
I
provided
information
about
the
annual
$25
membership
fee,
a
link
to
the
bylaws
and
acknowledgement
with
with
the
checkbox
that
they
have
read.
B
B
G
B
B
So
we
we
may
have
to
have
a
landing
page
built
off
of
off
of
our
website
somewhere,
so
that
Michael
that
so
that
we
can
actually
get
to
the
payment
section
outsides
of
the
format.
Maybe
if
somebody's
already
done
this
and
they
closed
it
and
didn't
link
over
to
the
payment
section,
they
can
and
then
we
can
explain
there.
So
maybe
in
this
after
the
submit
page
it'll,
we
can
link
it
to
that
page
on
the
website
and
that'll
have
the
pain
that
information.
You
know,
click
here
for
PayPal
it
were.
N
F
B
B
D
This
also
gives
us
the
opportunity
to
get
some
names
off
of
the
mailing
lists
than
our
City
males
that
are
no
longer
valid
emails.
Money
I
did
buy
water
solutions
on
HSN
left
so,
but
there
are
a
few
names
on
my
on
the
existing
mailing
lists
that
are
no
longer
that
are
no
longer
valid.
So
we
give
us
a
chance
to
get
those
off
so.
A
Okay,
so
we
have
a
few
bylaws
that
we
just
want
to
add
in
I'll
link
to
the
document.
This
is
a
document
I
just
post
in
the
chat
that
I
sent
out
with
the
agenda,
so
we've
got
two
different
bylaws
we're
looking
at
the
first
one
is
in
regards
to
financial
management,
and
this
was
prompted
by
the
migration
of
our
financial
institution.
A
Maybe
we
should
just
put
something
in
the
bylaws
that
reinforces
that,
so
that
people
aren't
thrown
off
new
people
coming
in
so
that
one
just
says:
the
minutes
are
posted
publicly
following
every
meeting
and
they're
considered
approved
at
the
time
of
posting,
but
they
can
be
it
contested
or
amended
if
you
were
at
the
meeting-
and
you
just
take
that
up
with
the
secretary.
So
we
just
need
to
vote
on
those
and
I
think
the
best
way
we
found
a
vote
is
using
the
raise
hand,
function.
A
K
L
F
B
Let's,
let's
get
back
on
track
here,
so
if
you
look
at
the
list
of,
if
you
go
down
to
the
the
participants,
shows
25
people
right
now,
we
just
need
a
majority
to
pass
the
amendments.
So
if
you
could
raise
your
hand
in
the
participants
window,
if
you
are
in
favor
of
these
changes,
we'll
get
a
quick
count.
D
B
D
D
P
B
D
D
D
D
He
called
it
the
Kohath,
on
which
the
idea
would
be
that
we
would
start
an
online
conference
at
8
a.m.
East
Coast
time
and
ended
at
5:00
p.m.
on
West
Coast
time
so
that'd
be
a
full
12
hour,
long,
essentially
online
conference
and
the
idea
being
that
it
would
be
open
to
anybody
that
wants
to
come
and
participate
and
view
the
sessions.
D
D
There
would
be
the
option
to
become
a
member
or
make
a
donation
or
or
those
kinds
of
things
we
all
agreed.
We
kind
of
we
really
liked
the
idea
and
doing
something
where
we
could
use
some
of
the
presentations
we've
already
done
at
the
last
conference.
Maybe
get
some
speakers,
you
know,
do
some
kind
of
live
interviews
where
you
know
we
could
have
interview
people
like
maybe
Chris
Cormac
Joe
ransom.
You
know,
have
them
talk
and
into
an
interview
session,
but
that
was
a
fundraising
idea.
D
We
at
that
we
all
seemed
to
find
it
easy
to
get
behind.
We
have
the
conference
every
year,
we've
added
every
year
in
the
fall
in
August
or
September.
It
seems
like
and
I
think
it
would
be
an
interesting
way
to
make
this
an
event,
maybe
in
the
spring,
to
have
the
Fall,
Conference
and
purses,
but
then
to
have
a
spring
online
conference
which
would
be
easy
for
anybody
to
attend.
So.
D
We
also
did
you
know:
Todd
was
the
one
that
had
a
lot
of
energy
behind
this,
so
we
made
sure
to
let
him
know
that
you
know
when
it
comes
time
to
round
up
speakers
and
to
round
up
participants
and
to
do
a
lot
of
the
promotion.
A
lot
of
that's
gonna
be
on
himself,
which
he's
not
in
there,
so
he
seems
to.
He
seems
not
to
have
forgotten
that
part
of
the
meeting,
no,
not
at
all
and.
Q
Yeah
I
concur
I'm
thirst,
of
course,
in
details
that
you
know
we
can
get
into
more
with
everybody
if
you
have
some
interest
but
there's
some
things
that
we'll
be
working
out
and
trying
to
put
this
together.
But
you
know
we
can
grab
people
from
around
the
world
want
to
make
presentations.
I
think
that
could
be
really
good.
If
we
could
get
you
know
some
of
the
educators
from
Bywater
we're
extremely
knowledgeable
about
the
different
modules
they
conduct
presentations.
You
know
we
can
do
interviews.
Q
Even
you
know,
for
all
of
lessons
for
partners
just
about
all
of
the
partners,
Jon
excluded
to
buy
water
solutions
that
you
know,
maybe
even
having
an
interview
with
Nate
and
Brennan,
find
out
about
the
future
of
by
water.
Ask
some.
You
know
roundtable
questions.
If
we
come
up
with
breakout
sessions,
we're
going
to
find
out
better
how
you
zoomed,
so
we
can
have
different
sessions.
Q
So
there's
a
number
of
things
and
details
that
we
still
need
work
out,
but
the
idea
behind
the
KOA
thought
we
think
could
be
really
productive
and
could
help
to
hook
some
new
members
and
hopefully
gain
not
just
membership
fees
in
the
members,
but
also
maybe
some
donations.
We
will
just
be
suggesting
that
they,
you
know
a
suggested
donation
amount
aside
from
the
membership,
but
you
know
really.
Q
B
All
right,
John,
finance
committee
and
I
want
to
remind
you
that
we
are
45
minutes
into
the
meeting.
Do
you
have
a
few
other
things
that
we
need
to
discuss?
So,
let's
try
to
move
I.
Don't
want
to.
You
know
be
pushy
on
this.
Let's
try
to
move
this
one,
so
we
can
get
through
everything,
because
we
do
have
some
important
things
to
talk
about
yourself.
All
right.
G
So,
with
regard
to
our
current
finances,
everything
is
going
along
very
well
once
I
can
move
this
window
up
here,
which
doesn't
want
to
happen
this
way.
Even
though
I
don't
like
doing
that
financial
status,
we
had
no
income
and
no
expense
in
October,
just
the
five
dollar
banking
service
fee,
leaving
us
a
reconciled
balance
of
1461
thirty-four
in
November.
We
are
expected
to
get.
Actually
we
do
have
our
quarterly
amazon
smile
distribution
of
about
$76.
G
The
document
and
calendar
for
compliance
was
almost
alarmingly
simple.
We
are
a
very
small
group
and
we
do
not
have
the
requirements
that
a
lot
of
organizations
have.
There
are
basically
two
things
we
need
to
file
every
year.
The
first
is
a
form
990
of
one
form
or
another
which
is
based
on
our
income
as
the
smallest
type
of
organization.
G
It'll
probably
take
us
about
20
minutes
to
file
the
form,
a
form,
990-ez,
Robin
and
I-
note
that
this
form
was
not
filed
by
the
previous
treasurer
and
there
really
is
no
way
to
accurately
construct
the
numbers
required
by
it.
However,
we
do
have
a
timeline
of
three
years
in
which
you
do
not
submit
a
form
before
your
nonprofit
status
gets
revoked,
so
I'm
missing
just
one
year.
It's
not
going
to
be
of
harm
there.
G
The
calendar
is
done
now,
I'm
working
on
the
actual
documentation
to
make
sure
that
there's
consistency
premiere
two
year
with
submission
of
both
of
those
forms
and
that
should
be
done
by
the
end
of
January.
The
budget
is
constructed.
We'll
talk
about
that
in
just
a
little
bit.
The
Lord
received
a
draft
of
that
budget
at
the
December
6
board.
Meeting
financial
institution
migration
is
on
track.
The
orc
received
my
recommendation
with
regard
to
a
financial
institution
and
we'll
talk
about
that
early
as
well.
G
I'm
in
the
process
of
working
with
PayPal
to
migrate
authorizations
and
control
of
the
account
over
to
me.
I
won't
complete
that
work
until
after
the
financial
institution
migration
has
taken
place,
I
wrote
that
letter
to
Kathy
a
Worman
of
innovative
users
group,
not
a
Hello,
a
goodbye
or
a
kiss,
my
ass.
G
There
wasn't
a
whole
lot
to
draw
on
here,
so
this
budget
is
long
on
words
and
short
on
numbers
with
regard
to
projected
income
for
those
that
have
not
had
an
opportunity
to
review
the
budget.
I'm,
anticipating,
based
on
the
limited
information
I
have,
and
about
only
a
year's
worth
of
legacy,
data
with
no
set
standards
for
membership
numbers
or
anything
projecting
income
of
about
$1400.
This
assumes
50
individual
paid
memberships
in
about
$150
in
Amazon,
smile'
contributions.
G
You'll
note,
if
you
looked
over
at
the
budget,
there
are
no
comments
for
individual
donations,
which
I'm
expecting
will
be
handled
much
more
by
membership
than
anything
else.
Although
I
will
note
that
this
budget
was
drafted
and
presented
before
we
had
the
fundraising
committee,
where
we
talked
about
the
Mohawk
on
bond
in
February,
there
are
no
institutional
or
corporate
donations
because
we
don't
have
enough
legacy
history
to
say:
oh
yes,
we
can
expect
that
much
and
we
are
not
anticipating
any
conference
registration
fees.
G
If
we
combine
everything
with
the
International,
Kohath
can
be
held
in
Portland
in
in
September,
but
where
does
that
leave
us
with
expenses
it?
Actually,
since
we
don't
have
very
many
fees
of
actual?
Is
this
in
a
pretty
good
spot?
Compliance
and
reporting
fees
about
$40
domain
name
registrations
are
really
right.
Now,
our
only
technological
expense,
our
technology
expenses
in
school
for
nonprofits
and
its
current
iteration
is
free,
I'm,
estimating
mailing
and
shipping
costs
to
be
$40.
G
Financial
and
banking
service
fees
will
probably
be
one
of
our
largest
expenses,
mostly
because
there
is
a
fee
associated
with
PayPal.
As
we
get
a
new
bank
there's
going
to
be
a
fee
for
checks,
there
may
or
may
not
be
fees
for
certain
things
need
to
have
that
need
to
take
place
and
I've
marked
a
hundred
and
fifty
dollars
for
that.
The
organization
needs
to
establish
a
cash
reserve
and
we
should
probably
have,
within
four
years,
an
amount
set
aside
that
is
equal
to
100
to
150
percent
of
our
annual
budget.
G
We
can
start
that
process
with
a
2018
budget.
Putting
aside
10%
10%
of
the
projected
income
might
set
aside
a
separate
message
to
the
board
that
might
talk
about
putting
some
of
our
current
funding
aside
for
at
this.
Well,
maybe
another
10%
to
make
that
20
percent.
Most
of
what
we
would
like
to
do
would
go
towards
the
application
towards
the
advancement
of
the
program
in
and
of
itself
when
the
organization
is
done
with
its
fiscal
year.
G
Any
organ,
any
money
that
is
left
over
from
its
operations
that
has
not
gone
to
the
cash
reserves
should
ideally
be
placed
aside
for
or
given
to
a
company
for
programming
of
Koha
and
its
advancement
or
the
projected
budget
for
2018.
That
would
be
seven
hundred
and
thirty
dollars,
which
is
actually
more
than
half
of
the
anticipated
budget,
and
we
would
thus
be
budget
neutral,
you'll
notice
in
here
that
there
is
no
information
or
no
line
holder.
If
you
will
with
regard
to
ala,
ala
is
an
incredibly
expensive,
endeavor,
probably
totaling,
about
three
thousand
dollars.
G
G
Let's
see
mailing
I
talked
about
financial
institution.
A
lot
of
the
expenses
I've
talked
about
in
detail
that
basically
covers
pages
three
and
four
of
the
budget
projected
income,
keeping
in
mind,
of
course,
that
this
is
an
incredibly
variable
process
with
nothing
to
draw
on
$1400
and
projected
expenses
also
$1400
for
calendar
year
2018.
G
We
do-
and
this
is
referenced
somewhere
in
the
budget
I
believe
it
might
have
only
gone
into
the
message
with
this
budget.
If
this
budget
is
approved,
we
do
have
the
opportunity
of
modifying
the
budget
during
the
year.
If
we
need
to
that,
just
requires
an
additional
restate,
Minh
of
the
budget
and
an
additional
vote.
G
It
would
be
great
to
be
able
to
say
we
need
to
revise
this
budget
in
a
positive
way,
that
is
to
say,
we've
gotten
more
income,
or
perhaps
we
need
to
win
account
for
an
additional
expense
that
we
could
not
have
possibly
thought
of
when
this
budget
was
approved.
So
this
would
be
a
budget.
In
fact,
none
of
our
budgets
are
set
in
stone.
We
do
have
the
capability
of
modifying
them
with
approval,
as
need
be.
G
K
G
Moving
on
to
the
other
large
financial
matter
awaiting
our
decision,
I've
been
doing
some
exploratory
work,
migrating
financial
operations
from
Kansas
to
Michigan,
there's
a
document
that
I
shared
with
the
board
that
has
not
been
shared
out.
More
broadly
I
basically
interviewed
two
in-person
banks.
These
banks,
both
were
on
the
lists
of
branches
with
the
thanks
with
the
most
branches
in
the
United
States
and
banks
that
are
known
to
be
friendly
or
have
friendly
policies
or
products
specifically
designed
for
nonprofit
organizations.
G
There
were
four
banks
that
were
overlapped
between
both
lists,
two
of
which
were
local.
To
me.
I
went
spoke
to
two
bank
managers
that
both
of
these
banks
and
also
considered
a
third
option,
a
direct
bank,
that
is
to
say
an
online-only
bank
and
examines
their
product
as
well.
The
direct
bank
was
removed
from
from
consideration
nearly
immediately
because
it
requires
something
called
a
linked
account,
which
means
you
actually
have
to
have
a
bank
account
at
a
brick-and-mortar
bank
to
link
to
your
virtual
bank
account.
G
This
is
what
they
do
with
their
personal
accounts
and
I
really
shouldn't
have
been
surprised.
It
was
true
with
their
commercial
accounts
as
well.
There
was
also
no
direct
way
to
handle
cash
deposits
and
there's
also
the
very
real
possibility
that
somebody
who
follows
me
and
the
role
of
treasurer
might
not
be
comfortable
with
this
direct
banking
method,
so
that
basically
left
two
banks
under
consideration.
Bank
of
America
and
PNC
Bank
Bank
of
America
had
two
different
products.
One
called
business
advantage
checking
in
business
fundamentals,
checking
they
do
not
have
a
separate
nonprofit
product.
G
Pnc
Bank
does
have
a
non-profit
checking
banking
option.
Pants
PNC
really
is
designed
for
smaller
nonprofits.
The
Bank
of
America
products,
since
they
are
not
designed
for
nonprofits,
really
are
meant
to
function
and
have
a
fee
structure
that
is
supported
by
larger
businesses.
Larger
nonprofits
would
meet
these
criteria
as
well,
but
there
are
also
significantly
increased
fees
with
both
of
the
Bank
of
America
products.
G
G
Considering
all
factors,
it
is
my
recommendation
to
the
board
and
to
the
membership
that
we
pursue
opening
nonprofit
checking
account
at
EMC
bank.
Should
this
motion
pass
I
will
work
with
Robin
Hastings,
who
has
very
graciously
continued
to
serve
as
financial
liaison
for
us
with
our
existing
bank
account
in
sunflower
bank
to
ensure
that
that
account
is
closed
out
and
the
funds
sent
over
here
for
opening
an
account
with
PNC
Bank.
G
P
B
G
Excellent,
all
right
all
right
I
will
work
with
Robin
to
move
forward
with
the
selection
and
implementation
of
PNC
Bank
as
this
organizations
financial
institution.
Thank
you
very
much
Jason
and
Candice.
The
two
finance
committee
members
who
have
reviewed
documentation
and
for
their
continued
efforts
for
this
really
big
push
of
work
as
we
get
our
financial
house
in
order.
Please
join
me
in
applauding
Candace
and
Jason
Eric.
Thank
you
and.
B
So
I
appreciate
everybody
hanging
in
there
as
we
get
all
this
stuff
in
order
for
this
new
year
and
as
we
gear
up
for
membership
and
websites
and
and
all
that
good
stuff.
So
thank
you
everybody
for
for
hanging
in
with
us.
The
last
thing
I
want
to
bring
up
real
quick.
We
have
a
conference
committee,
George,
Williams,
Vicki
Kemp
was
such
here
and
myself
and
Fred.
B
R
D
B
And
you'll,
let
us
know
George
when
we
couldn't
meet
regarding
this:
it's
it's
really
weighing
on
what
they're
doing,
because
we're
just
kind
of
adding
to
we're
not
running
a
show
this
this
year,
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
help
them
in
any
way
possible
and
enhance
that,
and
you
know,
do
what
we
can
as
the
us
group.
In
addition
to
that
so
I.
B
G
B
Oops,
because
that
needs
to
go
to
everyone
there
we
go
ok,
so
I'm
asking
everyone
I
put
that
email
address
in
in
chat
group
chat
window.
If
you
would
make
note
of
that
address,
I
would
like
for
you
guys,
as
people
that
have
been
interested
in
kohai
us
we're
not
officially
members
yet
to
send
us
your
comments
about
our
our
group.
What
are
the
things
or
one
thing
to
see
happen
here?
B
There
are
generally
what,
if
you
like,
or
what
do
you
don't
like
I
know
that
we've
gone
into
a
lot
of
the
technical
stuff
lately
and
I'm,
hoping
that
we're
going
to
change
the
shape
of
that,
especially
now
that
we
have
separate
board
meetings.
So
please
email
us
and
let
us
know
how
you
feel
about
these
meetings
and
how
you
want
to
see
them
take
shape
over
the
next
few
tur
as
we
get
into
membership.
B
We
have
not
set
an
official
launch
date
yet
for
membership,
the
board
will
have
to
talk
converse
in
email
and
we
need
to
decide
when
we're
going
to
launch
membership.
I
would
prefer
that
we
launch
it
with
the
the
website.
You
know
so
that
we
have
everything
in
place
or
you
know
pretty
much
in
place
so
Michael.
If
you
can,
if
you
can
tell
us,
let
us
know
the
board
know
when
we
might
be
able
to
go
live
with
with
something
that
would
be
great
and
we'll
kind
of
plan
around
that
cool
all
right.
