new truck committee - Diyode-Quassel

The Diyode truck is in need of some work on the ignition. There is concern that we are reaching the end of the life span of the truck. The expenses in repairing the current truck is reaching the point where it may be more affordable to purchase a new one. Will revisit in the future.

Meeting Notes

Transition Guelph is starting tool lending library. They are focusing on food production tools. Several ideas were presented (e.g.,running repair cafes, starting little library making workshop). We were asked if we can put a C-Can in the back of Diyode. The sea can idea was turned down. There was an agreement in principal that little library making workshops and repair cafe. These could be fundraising opportunities.
