EOI & skills inventory (24 June 2026)

What the community's expressed capacity looked like in aggregate five weeks after the town meeting — and the deduplication and consent lessons that came with it. A clean public copy; the respondent-level source stays private.

Original title
EOI & Skills Inventory — 24 June 2026
Original date
24 June 2026
Project phase
Acquisition sprint (Stage 1, final fortnight)
Purpose at the time
Reconcile the meeting-day headcount with the live database, read the volunteer and skills signal by workstream, and establish which respondents had actually consented to what kind of follow-up.
Status at the time
Aggregate snapshot generated from live database queries on 24 June 2026; published at the time to the Access-protected admin vault only. Figures were never refreshed after this date.
Source provenance
Derived from internal/eoi_skills_inventory_2026-06-24.md (private working corpus; unpublished, unchanged). Underlying respondent-level data lives only in the campaign database and is not part of the archive.

What was changed for publication
  • One respondent's malformed email address, quoted in the source as a data-hygiene example, is removed. The lesson (a typo in a respondent address that could only be resolved in person) is kept.
  • The survey-expressed contribution *bands* (dollar ranges people said they might consider) are removed. The source itself said "held at aggregate only; do not externalise", and even banded, they are financial-intent data about identifiable groups of respondents. The counts of yes/probably/maybe are kept because they are pure aggregates and are already qualified as interest, not pledges.
  • A reference to using consented follow-up contacts for a specific piece of time-sensitive outreach is generalised: the consent analysis is the point, not the campaign it was about to serve.
  • GitHub issue numbers are kept where they were; the issues they point at are in a private repository.
  • The reconciliation table, capacity counts, skills-by-stream table with its over-counting caveat, consent table and hygiene flags are otherwise verbatim — including the note that the register was "not for public release".

EOI & Skills Inventory — 24 June 2026

Internal working document. Aggregate only — no names, emails, or contact details. Source: live D1 (bottompub-eoi) queried 24 Jun 2026. Serves issue #8 (WP 5.1–5.2). Not for public release. Published to the Access-protected /admin/ vault (added to ADMIN_DOCS 24 Jun 2026, #95) — behind Cloudflare Access, never on the public site.

Stage 1 guardrail. This is community-coordination data. It is not a pledge ledger, a fundraising commitment, or evidence of available capital. “Financial intent” below records interest expressed in a survey, not money raised or promised. Do not quote these figures externally or treat them as committed funds.


1. Dataset overview (deduplicated)

Source tableRowsDistinct emailsNotes
submissions (EOI form)5143The Expression-of-Interest form. 8 duplicate/repeat submissions.
financial_survey (WP 5.8 form)125120The richest engagement dataset — far larger than the EOI form.
community_survey2615Several repeat submissions (11 dupes).
mailing_list217217175 general, 42 general,local. All currently subscribed.

Reconciliation with the meeting FACT (issue #8): the 17 May meeting reported “68 EOIs and ~12 working-group volunteers.” The web EOI form holds 43 unique submitters today — the gap to 68 is most likely non-web EOIs (paper/in-person/verbal) counted at the meeting. TODO: confirm with Billie whether a separate list of non-web EOIs exists so the two can be merged. The financial survey (120 unique) has since become the larger pool.


2. Engagement signal (structured fields — clean)

EOI form — capacity to contribute (submissions, n=51; 27 blank = pre-dating the field)

CapacityCount
volunteer (unsure how much)6
member only5
few hours / month4
just want to learn4
5+ hours / week3
few hours / week1
working group1

Active volunteer signal (working-group + 5+/wk + few-hrs/wk + few-hrs/mo) ≈ 9, plus 6 “volunteer-unsure” ≈ 15 — broadly consistent with the meeting’s “~12 volunteers.”

Financial survey — interest & locality (n=125)

  • Financial intent: 67 yes-definitely + 39 yes-probably + 18 maybe + 1 probably-not106 positive of 125. (Survey-expressed interest only — not pledges, committed capital, or confirmed funding. Never cite the “106 positive” figure externally as pledged capital; any external reference must carry the full qualification “survey-expressed interest, not pledged or committed funds.” See top guardrail.)
  • Locality (strong local base): 67 live in Cygnet, 31 in Huon Valley, ~13 elsewhere-in-Tas/visitors, ~4 interstate/overseas. ~98 of 125 are local (Cygnet + Huon Valley).
  • Meeting attendance appetite: 43 yes-definitely + 59 yes-if-timing + 16 written-only + 6 maybe.
  • Survey-expressed contribution bands: [removed from the public copy — the source held these at aggregate only and marked them “do not externalise”]. Grant interest negligible (1).

3. Skills inventory by stream (keyword-derived — directional)

Method caveat. Skills are free-text. The counts below come from keyword matching and over-count: the “events/arts/community” bucket inflates because generic “happy to support the community” phrasing matches, and “legal/governance” catches “co-op” mentions. Treat as a triage map, not a precise count. A human pass over the raw (private) skills text is needed to confirm stream-matching — especially for legal and heritage, where a false positive matters most.

StreamEOI form (of 39 with text)Financial survey (of 112 with text)Read
Hospitality / food & bev926Well covered
Finance / accounting423Well covered — directly useful to the finance stream
Building / trades98Decent coverage
Project / admin / management77Decent
Legal / governance224**Noisy (co-op keyword). Real qualified-legal count likely far lower — verify
Comms / marketing / design35Thin — likely a gap
Heritage / architecture / planning21Thin — a gap, notable given the heritage-listed building
Events / arts / community1179**Heavily inflated by generic support language — discount

Stream-matching read: strongest volunteer skill depth is in hospitality and finance — good alignment with two active streams. The clearest gaps are heritage/architecture/planning and comms/marketing, both relevant to current workstreams (heritage due-diligence #7; content & comms #31). Recommend a targeted skills call-out for those two before relying on internal capacity.


SourceConsent recordedCount

EOI form”updates” only7
EOI formblank (pre-field)28
Financial survey”updates + financial-followup”99
Financial survey”financial-followup”2

Actionable: ~16 EOI respondents consented to skills-contact, and 101 financial-survey respondents consented to financial follow-up. The 28 blank-consent EOI rows pre-date the consent field — do not contact them for skills/financial follow-up without re-establishing a basis. The 101 financial-followup consents were a directly usable, consented audience for time-sensitive follow-up — within the financial-followup purpose they agreed to, and only that.


5. Data hygiene flags found

  • Duplicates: EOI form 51→43, financial survey 125→120, community survey 26→15. Dedup by lower(trim(email)) before any count is quoted.
  • Known bad email: one respondent’s address in financial_survey carries a typo (issue #81) — [address removed from the public copy] — still pending in-person identification at the 26 Jun town hall.
  • Consent gaps: 28 EOI rows with no consent value (field added later) — treat as no-follow-up-consent.

Generated from aggregate D1 queries, 24 Jun 2026. Raw per-respondent skills text remains in D1 only — not copied here. Refresh before quoting any figure.
