Running Zephyr We hold 2-hour, meetings, twice a month, open to all Members and to those in the membership process. Here we thresh out issues and work toward agreement through consensus. Decisions about the land and community are made here. All other decisions are individual and are made privately. The option exists to resolve conflicts by majority decision, but this has never been used. Consensus can be frustrating for people who feel they have a reasonable request, but find that this is not the way the community wants to go or that the community will not meet their time frame. However, when consensus is working at its best, the eventual decisions reached are better than any of the ideas that individuals have initially. Through the years, the community adopted a meeting process that has been successful in leading efficiently to consensus decisions. Our ByLaws are available on
request.
