STAFF: General Comments

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Oregon Project : One Thread

IMO, all the following proposed contractor-positions on the Team are necessary. If we don't do one, we'll miss a critical part of our existing service infrastructure that must benefit from our work (schools, local government, neighborhoods, businesses, health and safety providers), and who could then move it forward to help the rest of the community they're already set up to serve. The jobs, started at once by perhaps only a couple of people, can be split as funding/volunteers become available:

A grant could be written - right now, and I believe one of you may have the skills - that would fund the following:

Y2K County Project Volunteer Coordination Team: 7 person team - 3.5 FTE + Site Management Team. All persons should be currently y2k conversant and nearly up to speed on the scope of potential problems. Positions can start at 1/4 time if funding won't cover more. All positions need to be held by project development folk with a history of initiative.

Since y2k is a transitory and very site-specific event, best addressed by individuals, and it is a classic case of too-much-to-do, volunteers are mandatory, and volunteer coordination is the work that needs to be financed.

See the specific positions proposed and comment on them in those threads (they all start with the word STAFF:)
