Key:  Additions   Deletions
Contingency plans

=> equipment failure
** rescue boat + possibly the passenger ferry

Any repairs will be funded by the Org. Hopefully, someone on the island will have the skills to make the repairs saving us money.

Should this be managed by a representative of the Org directly, or should the island council manage it, and request funds from the Org?

=> fire
** what's local fire fighting capacity (extinguishers, pumps)
** who knows what to do

Managed by the Island Council?

Funded by the Org. Requirements set by the Org?

=> injuries
** medical access - who's got skills and equipment

The Island Council should work to ensure that someone knowing first aid is always available.

** transport

More details listed above under "boats". The island comes with several boats. The Org will fund the ongoing maintenance of one as a rescue/emergency boat.

** hospitals

There must be one in Granada - the nearest major town. But we should validate the quality of care.

** what's the situation with insurance?

No decisions yet. TODO.

=> crime
** immediate protection from, say, drunken locals "joining the party"
** intra-community crime - somebody punches somebody, somebody steals something, somebody gets accused of a crime on the island
** legal services - who's the lawyer people should be dealing with, who understands the place

Thoughts?

=> interfaces to bureaucracy
** what are the civil authorities which have a say over operations. In the States, that includes things like health and safety regs, building codes, and so on. What's the equivalent terrain in Nicaragua.

TODO.

=> disputes within the community
** how do we resolve non-criminal internal disputes

The island council handles internal disputes.

** how do we resolve internal disputes without references to external forces

Vinay - what do you mean?

** how do people transfer shares etc?

If an owner wishes to get rid of his share, s/he announces the intent to sell it. The Org then has "right of first refusal" and 60 days to purchase the share, before it can be sold to anyone else.
