Closing

Learning how to lock up is part of becoming a philanthropist or member. At 10 PM and afterwards, if you're the last person with RFID access leaving the space, please follow the lock-up procedures.

Lock Up Checklist for 272

Partly opening will help build our core of members and people to work on the buildout and get us towards staying open longer, having critical mass of people in the space for safety and building a positive culture. Build collective ownership and responsibility.

- What does "open limited hours" look like? - What are the blockers to "partly open limited hours? -- good wifi (we have it) -- masks required for now, inside (till at least June 15 when city lifts requirement) -- be vaccinated -- a cap on # of people in space? do we need that? (current city rules) -- core of people to hold the space open -- Define a closing down protocol, for when those openers need to leave

People

Please ask everyone to finish up hacking and leave the space with you. If someone doesn't want to leave, please inform them after 10 PM that non-24-hour users are not allowed to remain in the space after the last 24-hour access token holder leaves, and that they need to leave with you. If this is a problem for them and they don't want to leave, there is an emergency contact list on the top door so that we can raise an alarm and potentially get some more Members over to you to help close the space. Alternatively, call the local police. We've been operating this people-need-to-leave-after-10pm model since the September 2014 Noisebridge Reboot and this shouldn't be news to anyone at this point.
