Payment Kiosk Report
Following the August committee meeting, Paul spoke to CTO, Freddy Calvert, regarding the all-in-one Square payment device, and reported that Freddy both approved the Square offering and said he would get it for us. Freddy has ordered the item, had a problem, and has now re-ordered. The kiosk will be provided/paid for by Infrastructure.
Discussion items
Electricity installation
•	Judy inquired about the electrical supply being installed for the Kluge press, as Russell had noticed that the tag on the ceiling outlet above that press was for 110. Astrud and Paul reported on the planned outlet locations and re-locations, and voltage for same.
Supplies
