Tent City/Safety/Proposals/24 Oct 2011
PROPOSAL
OF THE PUBLIC MEETING OF THE SAFETY WORKING GROUP
- Safety Working Group should hold weekly public meeting to address various safety issues with the OB Community
- Rotation of shifts:
- We propose that a large number of the OB community should rotate into Safety “shifts,” because we should all protect our own community.
- Everybody on rotation ends up doing a two-week shift:
- Be respectful to us, you’re our Safety team!
- Do not engage in verbal assault
- Assess the situation, don’t assume
- Abolish violence within yourself; diffuse and de-escalate the violence around you
- Bring conflicts of interest regarding tents before the GA, in the form of proposals of what should be done
- No being under influence during duty
- If a person on Safety rotation is found to be inebriated during duty, s/he will be asked by fellow members of Safety to step down from duty for the night
- If a person on Safety rotation has not behaved according to the guidelines for behavior, s/he should be subject to a review process, mediated by the Community Wellness Group
