We want a weekend that feels easy: one city, one base, and no heroic planning. The two things that usually decide whether it happens are timing and the “basecamp” spot where we naturally keep meeting up. If we agree on those two, the rest becomes flexible: museums for some, long lunches for others, a night out for whoever still has energy.

This proposal keeps it simple: choose the weekend windows that can work, then choose a basecamp area that feels right for the group’s vibe and budget. The basecamp matters because it shapes walking time, safety at night, and how expensive everything feels.

The basecamp area (a real meet-up anchor in the chosen city)

Vote on the windows and the basecamp anchors. Comments are welcome for constraints like early return, food preferences, or “quiet nights only.”

We want an offsite that feels worth the time and travel. When offsites fail, it’s usually because they become a packed agenda without real decisions, or because logistics overwhelm the experience. When they work, people come back with a shared picture of the year, sharper cross-team relationships, and a short list of commitments that actually stick.

This proposal separates three things that are often mixed together: timing, place, and purpose. The dates matter because they affect attendance and energy. The city matters because it shapes travel time and costs. The purpose matters because it determines whether the agenda should be discussion-heavy, workshop-heavy, or simply relationship-heavy.

The main purpose statement that should guide the agenda design

Vote on the window and city options, then choose the purpose that best matches what the company needs right now. Comments are welcome for practical constraints, especially travel time, visa concerns, or accessibility needs.

Our elevator is becoming a recurring problem: small failures are more frequent, downtime is harder to predict, and the user experience is drifting away from what residents consider acceptable, especially for older residents and families with strollers. We have two competing risks. If we postpone too long, we risk a major breakdown that forces an emergency decision at a worse price. If we overreact, we may commit to an expensive scope that goes beyond what the building truly needs.

This proposal frames the decision as a choice between three realistic modernization packages. Each package comes with a different work window, because timing is not a detail here: it changes disruption, temporary accessibility measures, and contractor availability. The goal is to approve a direction and a timetable that the administrator can translate into contracts and resident communications.

The modernization scope (from targeted upgrade to full replacement)

The execution window (works timing is part of the choice)

The resident protections and service guarantees that should be written into the contract

Reliability and long-term maintenance cost

Downtime risk during works and the need for temporary support

Warranty strength and spare-parts availability

Noise, dust, and daily building logistics

Vote on the package you find most reasonable, then choose the protections that matter most to you. Comments are especially useful if you have constraints such as medical needs, mobility issues, or specific periods when downtime would be particularly difficult.
