Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: taking minutes for a Zoom meeting

[Jessie Kome (jehako]

Hi-

This year, I am the lead meeting facilitator at Eastern Village Cohousing in 
Silver Spring, Maryland. I do have an assigned note-taker for every meeting. 
They take notes into a Google doc that all the meeting attendees have access to 
and can help edit during the meeting. The official note-taker is responsible 
for, at minimum, recording the agenda, who attended the meeting, the topics 
actually discussed, and any decisions. Everything else is extra. Some 
note-takers try to provide very detailed notes, but it isn’t required.

The advantage of this method is that the minutes are pretty much complete when 
the meeting ends. I review them and created a locked copy I email around for 
any comments and to be filed with our records.
