Proposals considered February 18, 2012

Proposal to shorten the discussion period for new proposals from one week to the time from one GA to the next tabled.

Proposal: Move the default location of the General Assemblies from Troy Davis/Woodruff Park to the AT&T Occupation for the duration of that occupation, except for the first Saturday of each month when it will be held in Troy Davis/Woodruff Park. Passed with stand asides.

Proposal: For days when no proposals are being presented, or there is time after proposals have been discussed, or in some cases when the topic is of immediate import, there will be a formal period set aside during the General Assembly for group discussion. The purpose is to raise issues of importance to Occupy Atlanta where they may be openly discussed; it may serve as part of the process of developing a proposal, or as an end in itself. The process of a speakout followed by breakout sessions and a report-back period is suggested but alternatives may be considered by the facilitators. Passed with stand-asides.

Proposal: Occupy Atlanta will adopt Restorative Circles as a conflict resolution process. This does not preclude other conflict resolution models being used in addition. Passed.
