Time keeper: Brooke

Minutes: David Buccola

Report Backs (8:05): Housing, Accounting, Library, OWS en Espanol, Alternative Kitchen, Occupy Dignity, Direct Action (DA), Occupy the Youth, Picture the Homeless

Proposal: Spokes Council Budgeting (27:00) This proposal was not formally proposed; instead it was discussed among break out groups and then feedback given back to proposers to better understand needs and concerns.

Proposal: Democracy in Spokes Council Proposer wasn’t able to be at the meeting but out of respect we discussed proposal to provide feedback. In straw poll 21 in favor of first item in proposal with 2 concerns. Many uptwinkles for second section of proposal. And a more mixed reaction to the last part of proposal.

Proposal: Emergency Proposal from Accounting (1:56), Direct Action, and Class War. Accounting brought forth the following proposal and then had to leave to do jail support. The proposal was then picked up by Class War and Direct Action:

Who do we bail out? There was an action in Williamsburg that was not an OWS event. It was a party for activists. They moved into an abandoned building on Bedford. Within a half hour police showed up and there was a confrontation with police. Four of them were arrested. Three of them are out. The people in Williamsburg posted their own bail. How do we feel about this? There were occupiers there. Do we bail those people out? Can we break spokes and let anyone say what they feel?

Result: The proposal to bail out this individual was tabled until more information could be gathered regarding charges and bail amount (which had yet to be set at the time of meeting).

Announcements: Direct Action is having an action tomorrow at Grand Central at 5:30pm

*Unfortunately the batteries died in the audio recorder and I was only able to record the first five minutes of the meeting.
