Community Development Initiative

The LVL1 Hackerspace Community Development Initiative, is a list of tasks that are focused on the maintenance and/or improvement of our community hacker space. As this is a community-driven space, unless otherwise noted, all of the tasks here are open to anyone who is willing to participate and get their hands dirty, so feel free to dig in! (This page used to be the Space To-Do list; that depreciated list is included at the bottom.)

Space Planning

If you have an idea on how LVL1 Hackerspace could be improved or better maintained and would like to have a new task created on the Community Development Initiative, please bring your idea to the Tuesday Open Meeting & Making night to be heard by the community. Ideas that are fully formed and responded to positively by other participants will then be added to the agenda by William at that time. Once this page has been fully updated and guidelines established, you will be welcome to make additions to the agenda on your own.

To determine the current status of any task, simply reference the Task Progress Legend below:
