Editing Meeting Notes 2023 05 16 (section)

= 86 =
Some people have felt uncomfortable. He hasn't respected some boundaries. One person has taken an extended leave due to this. Asking them to take an extended break hasn't helped, so that is why this is on here.
Person 1 might support asking him to leave for 3-6 months.
Person 2 - During a CNC class, a woman was brought to tears by a conversation with him, though we don't have exact details. He concluded that this was very toxic for the space.
Person 3 - Serious concerns because he keeps making people uncomfortable. Not sure what his place in NB is. Mediation didn't seem to help. Doesn't feel he is a good steward of the space. Strong opposition to him being a part of NB.
He doesn't seem to have any interest in the activities of the space.

Person 4: We have been holding him to a different standard, because of his neuro-divergence/autism. It's not productive, it has not helped.
I have repeatedly talked to him about these and other things about using the space. He repeatedly agreed verbally in person, but acted to ignore the requests.
He may have limited social perception, but he clearly goes beyond that and itentionally manipulates others.

Tilda objects and Loren and Elan will be responsible for followup discussions with Tilda if necessary.
