Summary
Based on discussion at the Rebase meeting and further kitchen meeting(s). I am proposing a single wall minimum storage kitchen layout. This would be a greatly slimmed down kitchen with less to clean and maintain. It is focused on hacking and events. Items removed would be: food storage, refrigerator, closed cabinets, and the island.
See the plans below:

What Will Be Done
I am proposing a quick initial demo phase and then a longer rebuilding phase.
Phase 01:
The first phase is a demo cleaning phase. While it may sound drastic, it will not leave the kitchen with any less functionality then is intended in the final phase.
Phase 01 includes removal of the food storage and a severe reduction of the cabinet space.
All food will be removed from the kitchen. The refrigerator will be emptied and recycled. Items in the cabinets will be reorganized, donated, or discarded. Temporary open wire shelves will be used to hold the remainder of the existing stuff. The kitchen island will be demolished except for the stove. and the area of the island under the stove will be opened up. The cabinets will be removed from the kitchen, broken down, and placed in the dump pile for removal. A bracket will be installed to support the existing shelf over the sink. The remaining equipment, floor, and the area of the kitchen will be deep cleaned. Safe pest control stuff may also be used.
Phase 02 is a longer cleaning, improving, and rebuilding phase.
A period of cleaning and ongoing pest control will occur while the new kitchen equipment is being sourced, built and installed. The goal of phase two is to create a more useful and more accessible kitchen.
OVEN: The double oven should be replaced with a more reliable single oven
What Areas in the Space Will This Affect
Possibly everything
Who Will Be Doing It
Jarrod, the note takers, and all attendees of the Rebase meetings
Why This Will Be Good
It will be an additional way to introduce the work of the Rebase group with the greater Noisebridge community
Why This Will Be Bad
It may mean ordering several more ink cartridges for my printer...
How Long Will It Take
Until it is done
In A Fantastic World, What Extra Budget Would You Like
It would be nice to plot these plans on larger paper as the project matures.
Are There Any Other PFAs This Would Work Well With
Hopefully all of them
Are There Any Other PFAs This Would Contradict
Probably none.
