How officers do their jobs

This is a collection of descriptions and notes for how officers do their jobs. The intent is to provide some direction to new officers and to assist existing officers to cover for each other if needed.

Yearly Dates to Remember

  • Officer Google Calendar should have all of these dates setup to help remind you.
    • The Google account bloominglabs at gmail dot com owns this calendar and someone with current access should share this to new officers.
  • Schedule the Annual Meeting by January 31st (may take place after this date) - http://doodle.com
  • Is it New Years day? That means it's time to start preparing the Annual Report for prior year, to be presented at the Annual Meeting
  • Yearly by January 31st: Indiana DoR sales tax filing. https://intime.dor.in.gov/
  • Yearly by May 15th: Indiana form NP-20 (Annual Report/sales tax exemption renewal) Also at https://intime.dor.in.gov
  • Yearly by May 15th: IRS form 990 https://sa.www4.irs.gov/epostcard/
  • USPS PO box: Due yearly by July 31st
  • Dotster bloominglabs.org domain name: Paid up through July, 2020
  • Dotster makevention.org domain name: Paid up through November, 2020
  • S. Walnut lease started ?, 2018 and was for a 3 year period. ? months notice is required for either party to vacate the lease?
    • That first lease was vacated in Q1-2020, a new 1 year lease was signed starting mid-2020. Further 1-year leases have been executed since then.
    • Any signer of future leases should do a diff against the prior lease to generate a 100% accounting of all document changes before signing. This has bitten us before by missing changes made to renewed leases without us noticing.
