village living concept

### Basics - decision making - distributed governance model - strategic: population decides on production inputs/outputs levels - operational: experts decide how to achieve production level - individual autonomy: room to spend inputs or affect outputs to different levels based on ability level (expert, standard, support) - group autonomy: group votes (skewed based on ability level) on decisions impacting inputs/outputs about the individual autonomy level. - **Agency Across Roles**: All members, regardless of expertise, influence high-level resource allocation and societal goals. - **Expert-Driven Processes**: Those with relevant skills or experience manage how processes run, but without top-down control from a separate management class. - **Collective Accountability**: The community holds experts accountable for achieving agreed-upon goals, rather than a supervisory hierarchy doing so. - shared knowledge - keep authority as close to capability as possible - distributed (individual, expert) authority on production decisions -> removes managerial class - full democratic authority on how much gets produced and expectations for the individuals - dynamic knowledge flow - open information - experts answer to community goals = community driven accountability without bureaucracy ### Questions - is it better to view work within roles or processes? - can you organize micro societies without a management class? ### Resource & Labor Metrics #### Core Economic Metrics | Metric | Target Range | Calculation | Notes | | --------------------- | ------------------- | ----------------------------------- | ------------------------------- | | Community Labor Hours | 8-12 hrs/week/adult | Total process hours / Active adults | Excludes governance time | | Economic Deficit Gap | 5-15% of budget | (Required - Dues) / Budget | Surplus needed from enterprises | | Surplus Achievement | 15-25% of budget | (Income - Expenses) / Budget | Buffer for resilience | | External Income Ratio | 20-40% | External income / Total income | Balance of self-sufficiency | | Resource Utilization | 70-85% | Used capacity / Total capacity | Avoiding overload | | Skill Market Coverage | 90-95% | Available skills / Required skills | Including redundancy | #### Resource Sharing Details | Sharing Type | Target Usage | Measurement | |--------------|--------------|-------------| | Tool Library | 60-80% utilization | Hours used / Available hours | | Shared Spaces | 40-60% utilization | Booked time / Available time | | Vehicle Pool | 70-85% utilization | Active hours / Available hours | | Knowledge Exchange | 10-15 hrs/person/month | Teaching + learning hours | | Equipment Access | 90% availability | Uptime / Total time | ### Process-People Matching System #### Basic Matching Parameters 1.

Values Screen - 15-minute online assessment measuring community fit - Focus: collaboration, civic mindset, environmental values - Automated scoring with clear threshold Rationale: Quickly filters for basic alignment with community principles while respecting everyone's time. Eliminates clear mismatches early. 2. Citizen Coffee Chat - 15-minute informal meeting with one current citizen - Standardized but conversational questions - Simple yes/no recommendation Rationale: Human element ensures cultural fit beyond metrics. Creates first community connection. Gives applicant real perspective on community life. 3. Three Citizen Reviews - Digital application review by 3 random citizens - Maximum 10 minutes per review - Simple scoring: Strong Yes (2), Yes (1), No (-1), Strong No (-2) - Must have +3 total to proceed Rationale: Distributes responsibility, ensures multiple perspectives, keeps process moving with clear scoring. 4. Community Vote - 72-hour voting window - Needs 80% approval from: - Immediate neighbors - Section residents (building/block) - Community council - Any rejection ends process Rationale: Gives real power to those most impacted while maintaining community standards. Quick timeline prevents analysis paralysis. ### intake time spent per village | Scenario | Initial Apps/Month | Step 1 Pass % | Step 2 Pass % | Step 3 Pass % | Step 4 Pass % | Monthly Time Cost to
