OccupyLSX Proposal: £650 for TCU tent
Submitted 22:06 Wednesday 20th June 2012 by Max
A decision needs to be made on the St Pauls Tent City University tent (the actual 6mx6m tent from Occupy LSX complete with banners and signs. A deal has been reached with the owners who are being very supportive. They're willing to accept a replacement so that the original can be used for Occupy travelling talks, events etc.
This is a bargain and provides Occupy with an valuable resource it owns and can make much use of, even beyond its iconic significance.
The owners are sound people, having loaned the tent throughout the occupation. But they will be needing it or a replacement for an event in the summer. They do need to know what's happening now.
The tent in good condition but will need approx £60 worth of welding done to repair steel joints damaged in the evacuation from St Paul's.
Storage will be free of charge care of Occupy supporters, and travel is to be paid for by working groups wanting to use it eg for events, tours. COSTS Supplying owners with a replacement tent - based on internet research 500 Welding 60
Transport: A one day job. Van hire: cheapest found to date: £60 Congestion Charge one day: £10 Diesel Local with any balance returned: £20 Transport total: £90
GRAND TOTAL £650
