+Any changes made to the wiki regarding the documentation of house policy must be ratified by the house at the beginning of house meeting after meet and greet <sub>[[meetings:archive:2015-03-15#agenda_item_2|[HM 3-15-15]]]</sub>.

+==== Composting Rules ====
+All composting containers on the property must be securely covered and emptied in the composting pit daily <sub>[[meetings:archive:2015-08-02#agenda_item_1|[HM 8-2-15]]]</sub>.
-A yellow card consists of a member writing a short, specific description of problematic behavior that they attribute to a specific member or members. One additional member needs to also sign the yellow card for it to be accepted. It should then be submitted to the Yellow Card envelope in the Commons.
+==== Parking Spaces ====
-Examples of yellow card-able behavior include but are not limited to:
-    * leaving messes in Common areas
-    * taking unfair amounts of common resources
-    * damaging common property
-    * being excessively loud
-    * treating other members in a disrespectful, threatening, or abusive manner
-At least two members need to legibly sign off on a yellow card. Yellow cards can only be submitted after communicating concern to the member being yellow-carded and asking them to amend the behavior. This can be done through an intermediary if necessary. If doing so is not possible, the reason should be noted on the yellow card. Each separate instance of behavior is only eligible for one yellow card. Yellow cards carry a $10 fine as penalty, alternative arrangements can be worked out in a [[:documents:manual#house_meetings|house meeting]]. If a member believes they were given a yellow card unfairly they can appeal the yellow card at a house meeting.
-The [[:documents:officers#steward|Steward]] will check (or coordinate with another [[:documents:manual#officer_positions|coordinator]] to check) the envelope on a weekly basis. They will inform a member that they have been yellow-carded within a week of seeing the yellow card, along with the [[:documents:officers#treasurer|Treasurer]] and [[:documents:officers#labor_czaritsaczar|Labor Czar]]. They must report this or arrange to have it reported to the House via a meeting.
-Four yellow cards in a month, six in two months, or eight in six months triggers an automatic [[:documents:manual#member_review_policy|membership review]]. Three signatures are not required to go forward with the membership review <sub>[[:meetings:2014-10-12#agenda_item_5|[HM 10-12-14]]]</sub>.
-==== Food Labeling for Co-Op Dinners ====
-Dinner cooks only need to label their dishes using the following shorthand abbreviations. Any ingredients used in the dish that appear on the list of food allergens maintained by the [[:documents:officers#kitchen_coordinator|Kitchen Manager]] must also be specifically listed.
-    * M (Meat)
-    * VGT (Vegetarian)
