Talk:We need a place
From Makers Local 256
West Elementary School
Advantages
- More space than we currently have.
- The space is more accessible (no stairs to a lofted area).
- The space has heating and cooling options that we can turn on/off at our discretion.
- Separate building for power tool work.
- Internet will be shared with the entire building (likely will make it cheaper)
- we wont pay for water/sewage which for us is around 50 dollars in our utilities.
- we wont maintain lawn
Disadvantages/Concerns
- The seperate building needs to have a garage door installed. This may be a cost the membership will incur. No time frame established on when we can begin demolition / installation (probably immediately, but need to ask).
- Internet will be shared with entire building (less control over infrastructure, unless we're the ones put in charge of infrastructure, which may be likely).
- Late night outdoor security concerns (proposed solution?).
- With the ability to turn on air and heat comes opportunity for higher maintenance costs.
- Any beverage imbibing limitations we should know about?
