We received a notice from the State of California Franchise Tax Board,
notifying us that (since we have yet to submit or complete our 501(c)3
application) we must fill out state form 3500 to convince California not to
levy state taxes for last year, 2013.
I've filled out this form to the best of my knowledge so far, but it is
incomplete. It needs some more attention. See attached:
"state_tax_form_3500_sudo_room.pdf"
which should have saved my submitted values to many of the required fields.
We need a few things:
1. Review what I've already added (make sure dates and such are correct!)
2. Complete the rest of the form to the best of our ability
3. See if any lawyerly advice can help us ensure this goes smoothly
4. *Submit before Friday November 7* (30 days from October 9, 2014)
"Send us either your tax exempt letter, Form 3500, Form 3500A, or Form 100
with a copy of this letter within the next 30 days or we may issue a tax
assessment based on available information. A penalty of 25% of the
additional tax may be assessed for failure to provide information upon
written request."

Wait just to be clear, the Backspace proposal from last week wasn't
this. It was about dedicating ONE room, the eyeball room, and having
part-time scheduling priority in two common rooms, the den and
storage1. It didn't say anything about the disco room, which OMNIdance
has paid for exclusively until Dec 1, and which the Commons WG is
proposing to steward starting Dec 1. This Commons WG proposal was on
the pad at last week's meeting but the meeting went too long and the
delegates didn't have time to talk about it, sorry.

I love the bees and I think it would be an honor to be swarmed by them!
We hosted them at 2141 once, and now my house has one of their giant
murals. I think it would also be a great opportunity to buy some art
for the Omni's walls. :)
we have a bag of ultrasonic transducers, as seen here:
http://www.directindustry.com/prod/international-transducer/ultrasonic-tran…
in case you needed to do any ultrasonic transducing. there are also
electret microphones in the same bag, i think they were used together for
physical location tracking, like short distance high-accuracy distance
measurement.

Alice found some working free coolers on craigslist and she has dib on them. Does the omni want them? It's not on the wishlist.
Her home internet is out. She asked me to send a massage to the list asking for a few people to help move them Wednesday.
Her # is 4152720596. Can someone plese forward this to omni discuss?

Hey Whitney, I just noticed that some folks replied to this thread
without emailing you directly. Folks, Whitney is not subscribed to the
mailing list anymore!
April posted this scheduling poll to pick the best day of the week:

Matt forwarded a note from the state that we need to fill out Form
3500 to avoid paying 2013 taxes.
Yar,
I am still willing to bottom line the 501c application. I have not made any
progress since my august communication requesting information. My goal to
have the package finalized by the end of this month is no longer reasonable
because I have not made any progress since august. Without the required
information I can not help. I suggest we form a small group of people that
have historical working knowledge of Sudo as well as access to financial
and tax documentation. After the delegates are identified we should meet to
address scope and define roles.
Regrettably, I don't have the time to join in the weekly meetings. I can
however, make time for a twice a month focus meeting to address 501c
documentation and progress.
Finally, please include me in future communications on *this *subject by
attaching me directly to the email. I will be unsubscribing from the
"discuss" & "omni building" email lists because it is taking too much of my
time to review.
Thank you,
Whitney E. Lawrence III, P.E.
