# Admin Committee Office Hours Notes

There's no clear place for notes or agendas for the newly created weekly Admit Committee Office Hours, so I made this.

# RC Office Hours - Programming - 4/12/26

Programming (6): S, J, V, I, C, K  
Outside (4): L, A, Z, A

Topics discussed:  
\--- Booking overlaps + structure &amp; decision making + coordination across groups  
\--- SOPs  
\--- Basement  
\--- RC onboarding materials / flow  
\--- Block party  
\--- Open Studios

\--- Booking overlaps + structure &amp; decision making + coordination across groups

Diffuse engagement with booking requests, based on who gets to the proposal first/engagement with submitter.

Grandfathered events

If/how to prioritize across RC-emergent events vs outside proposals  
\+ balancing with space financial needs.

Trial 5 week run of J poli-ed sundays didn't have great experience in space, loud, other stuff still going on...

Upranking criteria have been:  
\- political content  
\- proposed by RC community

Downranking or denying criteria:  
?

Overlapping events means overlapping \*audiences\* which could conflict in some cases. Duality of mixed events, can be synergistic, can be problematic.

\-- Coordination across groups

Ideas:  
Weekly "leads" - someone to take a week in the future - could help build calendar further into the future, requires more people - could also get confusing (how to record/indicate week-lead)

Per day chats:  
Signal chats per day could help coordinate across a specific day, and create a point of contact if you know the day an event happens.

Centralized chat:  
The spokescouncil WG chat could be repurposed.  
Another chat could be made.

In any chat setup, Signal group member labels (new feature) could be very useful here, allowing people to indicate WG/AC membership

\--- SOPs  
https://wiki.commons.nyc/books/rc-programming/page/programming-sops  
Needs review + additions for some specifics: advertising and cross-promo for sensitive programming  
https://wiki.commons.nyc/books/rc-programming/page/best-practices-for-screenings-and-projected-amplified-presentations

SOPs and onboarding materials need to be agreed on/seen/read/referenced - lonely wiki pages are not sufficient:  
\- QR links and signage in locations (e.g. on PA, computer)  
\- Physical material: zines, trifolds  
\- Actual in-person sessions

\--- RC onboarding materials / flow

Dinner has been working to address: food safety zine

Could be addressed via WG/AC onboarding, or general RC onboarding

\--- Block party  
\- got permit account  
\- get 50% of neighbors to sign off (physically)  
\- Application needs to be physically delivered to meeting

\- block map: https://wiki.commons.nyc/books/rc-programming/page/block-maps

\--- Open Studios  
\- Tutoring -&gt; Kids crafting studio Sat/Sun led by different groups  
\- Food  
\- 3 vendors, maybe one dropped out

Committee attendance (#) - Mi, P, L  
Outside attendance (#) - Mo

## Resulting Next Action Items

\- TODO **set up a self-signup form for emails**  
\- this will ping a number of people over email who have admin access to the the account system and will manually create an account  
\- needs some copy explaining the potential risks in submitting the info &amp; encourage using burner emails  
\- need people to volunteer to be the account creators  
\- TODO **move vikunja project management software from projects.beta.ridgewoodcommons.nyc to projects.ridgewoodcommons.nyc**  
\- TODO **migrate the data from the bookstack instance at wiki.commons.nyc to wiki.ridgewoodcommons.nyc**

## Topics:

- "Tech" issues that are holding us back as an organization 
    - Cross group coordination
    - Site/URL confusion
    - Account creation
    - Lack of movement on core "space replication" functions
- Opportunities for clarity
- Individualized pain points - What could change that would make your life easier?
- Things to put a bow (if temporary) on

### "Tech" issues that are holding us back as an organization

#### Cross group coordination

- There's no "many to many communication" channel that isn't scoped in a way to cause people to wonder "is this the right place for this?" e.g. Spokescouncil chat is unclear.
- The entire wall has become this, but mostly in an "attention extractive" way, like "come to my thing," vs "Does anyone want to x/yz?" and there's no delimiter between RC, RC community, and outside stuff.
- Admin committees and working groups are Signal silos

Proposals gathered from various chats…

- Day-scoped chats - Signal chats for M/Tu/W/Th/F/Sa/Su 
    - Gives very clear structure, tightly integrates different events
    - Probably pretty quiet.
    - Great for WGs and recurring events
    - Bad for ACs, e.g. facilities, programming, finance.
- "Grand Central Chat" - A unified chat, with members from various ACs, WGs, and otherwise. 
    - Probably noisier. Member labels might let it function on mute. (Do @s override mutes?)

All of the above would benefit from using the new-ish Signal "member label" system. So Whether day-chats, or a unified

All chats still suffer from the fact that almost nobody reads group descriptions. Not sure about pinned messages, but in any case they're not visible to new members?

#### Site/URL confusion

wiki.commons.nyc  
\*.beta.ridgewoodcommons.nyc  
ridgewoodcommons.nyc

Having tools broken up across domains hurts both use and utility

#### Account creation

Lack of an account makes tools read-only, increases confusion &amp; sense of social capital.

#### Lack of movement on core "space replication" functions

- programming and rentals management
- mailing list
- finance

### Opportunities for clarity

- Division of work 
    - Network connectivity
    - Hosted applications
    - Semi-hosted tools
    - Site
- Group names 
    - Tech Comms -&gt; 
        - Tech &amp; Intranet
        - Tech &amp; Coordinating
        - Tech &amp; inside comms
        - Tech Infrastructure 
            - This could mean that the site becomes a collab between Tech Infra &amp; Outside Comms
    - RC IG coord -&gt; 
        - Comms
        - Outside Comms

### What could change that would make your life easier?

These meetings are a good start for me, gives a time &amp; place to send people. - LP

### Things to put a bow (if temporary) on

- Outline vs bookstack
- Knowledge store ACLs and visibility

Topics:

    "Tech" issues that are holding us back as an organization 

    Cross group coordination

    Site/URL confusion

    Account creation

    Lack of movement on core "space replication" functions

    Opportunities for clarity

    Individualized pain points - What could change that would make your life easier?

    Things to put a bow (if temporary) on

    Domain Name

    Working group software User Testing (e.g. pantry try riseup?)

    Excitement on

    nyc mesh

    ny mesh

    visibility of invisible work - roles board

    removal of Proposals label on board



meta note if not in chat, can't see chat-shared agendas

Things working well
    * What's Going On? I go to https://ridgewoodcommons.nyc



Notes:
- We need many to many communication channel

    - seems like the giant physical wall is the channel

    - Micro has explored some wall hierarchies

    - Zulip/Mattermost+

    - consensus on signal: skepticism, willingness to experiment, try Signal solutions before bigger project of alt software solution

    - 


    What situations where someone can't find a channel, or there doesn't appear to be a chat.


    Story: New to space: where is everybody? how do I get involved? Where do I find people interested in x/y/z


    - next action item: move bookstack to wiki.ridgewoodcommons.nyc & migrate data. decide what to do about 

    - next action item: move vikunja off beta subdomain

    - 


    - invite code

    - self-signup (open)

    - self-signup (moderated)

    - form submission + manual accout creation

    - unlisted/obscured URL


    - Against 3rd party auth (Google, etc)

    - MVP for self-signup:

      - form at a hidden URL that pings a small list of email addresses that have admin access and can create an account for them


    - bot worries

    - human worries

    - vandals

    - deletion

    - false engagement

    - polution of user database


MVPs
/register

ACLs

- next action item: create a secret endpoint that allows users to submit a form that asks for their desired username & email, email a small number of admins who will then create the account for them. make sure to include some copy the relays the risks of submitting their info

# RC Office Hours - Finance - 5/17/26

Group attendance: D  
Outside attendance: S, P, L

### Topics

- Getting people into RC Finance Consensus Signal group
- Fiscal Sponsor, etc. 
    - Account balance and access
    - W9(?) status
    - Nonprofit consultation
- Floating Expenses
- Finance AC 
    - Attrition
    - Workflow development 
        - Better chart workflow

#### RC Finance Consensus Signal group representation:

Facilities  
Tech  
Basement  
Finance  
Sunday Dinner  
Pantry  
Programming  
Kids Crafts  
Fundraising &amp; Grants  
Yearbook  
Liability  
Writing Workshop

#### Fiscal Sponsorship

3 months since last account check

Monthly would be good, to catch problems (change in platform payouts, etc) before they become big problems.

S will meet w/sponsor and bring up monthly reconciliation

W9 status: good on both platforms

P reached out to M re: a consultation on process to gain nonprofit status

#### Floating Expenses

Made a page for potential expenses: [https://wiki.commons.nyc/books/rc-finance-home/page/potential-expense-backlog](https://wiki.commons.nyc/books/rc-finance-home/page/potential-expense-backlog)

TODO/Done (P): follow up with M re nonprofit consultation  
TODO/Done (P): Monkey followup  
TODO: S to shadow finance operations -   
TODO: Shea monkworx meeting

#### Finance AC

##### Attrition

Since RC swap, finance has gone from 4 ppl to essentially 1.

S to shadow finance operations - potentially document current process?

Might be nice to create specifically scoped roles, eg:

- Monthly reporting
- Rent, bills, fines, reimbursement
- Reconciliation and data entry

##### Workflow development

Current workflow is functional, sophisticated, but possibly would be good to mimic established conventions?  
L at BCF is an accountant, has been contacted by P for consult.

##### Chart workflow

Might be nice to have scripts which process CSV input and create standardized reporting graphics.

Discussion of using "roof" of bathroom to store larger orders of TP, 4x+ our normal purchase.

Discussion of building a small hutch in bathroom to store full package of TP, help clear out shower area. Convo started around a [hutch style plan](https://wiki.commons.nyc/books/rc-facilities-homepage/page/bathroom-hutch-idea-2025-12-xx), but the area behind toilet is narrow and 47" wide, so might be easier to run shelf along left wall (as seated on toilet), could be 12" deep, 53" max length.

What if we occassionally showed up on socials to share that we exist and what we're about? Kinda like a way to let people who are looking for spaces like ours can share and disseminate to their networks?

LP  
\- 1/2 page paper flyers vs web images  
\-- Tool could generate 2-ups for printing, and standard 4x5 for online?  
\-- 2-ups could be either orientation  
\-- Could strip event details from 4x5?  
\- Event promo outlets  
\-- Wiki list with contextual guidance as to what for where?  
\-- Location list as well, also useful for fundraising  
\- Information hierarchy in space  
\-- More bulletin boards? Larger board with tape strips to break up space?  
\-- Where  
\-- Hatch gate mounted board?  
\- Use of outside display case  
\-- Weekly schedule limited to 8.5x11  
\-- Larger regular programming poster could be larger?  
\-- Solar LED lighting strip?  
\- Use of door space  
\- Pools events  
\-- more consistent  
\-- +1w ahead  
\- Promotions as list vs forward  
\-- Pro: self-managed or collectively moderated membership vs tech bottleneck  
\-- Risk: people forgetting it's a list and doing an oops?  
\- Periodic "Hello World" post  
\-- Post an occasional intro style post: Hello world, for those who don't know, Ridgewood Commons is....

#### Calendar conflict

CSA wasn't listed on calendar. Blood-drive was booked. Conflict between two had negative effect on both.

<span class="author-a-z83za6m3z72zz74zxz86zkz73zpru8z122z">General agreement on "No infinitely ecurring events" - events should be booked for a specific number of occurrences or date range.</span>

<span class="author-a-z83za6m3z72zz74zxz86zkz73zpru8z122z">Discussion of flows to make event, e.g. even "known" events like CSA restarting via form submission might help to avoid conflicts, vs events emerging from conversation and DMs</span>
