HOW TO BECOME A MEMBER

Contact: Doug Cooper dcooper@andrew.cmu.edu

Provisional membership
The first step is to come to several of our meetings. In addition to your getting to know members of the group, this would acquaint you with our vision for the community, our values, and our procedures, notably: our reliance on consensus rather than strict majority-voting in making decisions on controversial issues. At this point you might decide to become a provisional member, which would allow you to take part in all discussions, short of voting.

Full Membership
After a period of three months, you might decide to become a full member of our community. You would be obliged to pay a fee: $100 for individuals and $150 for a household. At this point you would be a full participant in all decisions and would be expected to take part in and contribute to on-going committee work.

Investor
You may decide to become an investor in the project with the intention of owning a unit in Glen Osborne Woods once it is built. You would be obliged to pay $5000 for your household. These funds, pooled with those of others who have already invested, will be used for the ongoing costs of planning the actual building: site surveys, permit fees, architectural fees etc.. These funds are not automatically refundable in full. Should the project prove unfeasible, you would receive a pro-rated refund depending upon costs already incurred by the project. However, assuming the project would move forward, these funds will entitle you to full participation in the planning process and will be discounted at an advantageous rate from the final costs of the project.
