722.0. "member distribution numbers" by SWAMPD::ZIMMERMANN (I'm a DECer, not a DECie) Sun Nov 14 1993 19:48

The new fee based banking issue has really bothered me.  But, putting aside
the issue of fees, the issue of a special meeting, petitions, the way this
issue (or any issue) is handled (by all sides), and the GMA and non-GMA 
facilities and services available for members, are issues that don't seem 
to have been addressed in the past to my satisfaction (one example is the
availability of ATMs (free) outside of the GMA).

Since the announcement of the imposition of fees, I have been in favor
of doing what is necessary to reverse the imposition.  I genuinely
believe that a Special Meeting is the only way to remove BoD members.  I
believe that in the US, we (US citizens, generally) don't want to continue 
fighting issues en-masse.  The status-quo is acceptable to most individuals, 
because of ignorance of any and/or all issues.  I further believe that the 
former BoD was voted out because of the publicity of the previous Special 
Meeting.  When an individual member sees that over 1,000 other members have 
stood up, that a problem must really exist, and it's time to beat the system 
(i.e. voting out incumbents).

But, not being in the GMA, I felt it was not appropriate for a non-GMA
member to stand-up, and lead a call for a special meeting that I was not, 
or could not, attend and/or lead.  My leading the call for a special 
meeting and not attending the special meeting would be tantamount to my 
calling on others to fight my fight.

So, as a non-GMA member, do all I have is a single vote. Do all non-GMA
members not count, except for a single vote and their business (or lack
there of).  While GMA members have multiple DCU sites, multiple ATMs (free), 
mortgage loan access (for better or worse), and the ability to attend (and 
in good conscience call for) special meetings, do non-GMA members deserve 
some additional consideration.

These thoughts have caused me to wonder, just how diverse is our membership.

I would like to use this note to determine the split of GMA and non-GMA 
members, the DCU facilities available (by Digital site code), and the numbers
for Digital employees and (if possible) DCU members by site location (see
next reply for the Washington D.C. area).

Can anyone with access to the information, post the breakdown of membership.
(how many members in Mass., N.H., GMA, non-GMA, etc).  Whatever information is 
available would be useful.

Also, I would ask that my fellow DCU members consider the possibility of
their becoming a kind of 'DCU-member Site Captain', to monitor DCU and BoD
activities and to speak to and/or for the local DCU membership.  Please
state your interest here, or privately via mail (SWAMPD::ZIMMERMANN or
Mark Zimmermann @ COP).


One final note.  Notes files are filled with examples of Digital employees
making our feelings known, and senior Digital management listening, and 
acting accordingly (either modifying, revoking or further explaining the
policies in question).  The DCU BoD (some), and possibly DCU management, 
don't appear so inclined. Why is it that those that work for and/or 
represent us (DCU management and BoD) seemingly feel free to ignore the 
membership and those that we work for (Digital management) listen, react 
and respect it's employees.  Digital management is a credit to this sort 
of dialog, DCU management appears not to be.

722.1DCO - Maryland/VirginiaSWAMPD::ZIMMERMANNI'm a DECer, not a DECieTue Nov 16 1993 13:0322
The local DCU facility here is at DCO (Landover, MD). The site serves the 
needs of Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia, and Maryland.  There are no
free ATMs locally.

Digital site			# Digital employees
(dist from DCO, approx)

BJO (Baltimore, MD)    - 25 miles	119
COP (Greenbelt, MD)    - 7 miles	869
DCO (Landover, MD)     - n/a		382
VFO (Fairfax, VA)      - 30 miles	127
WNP (Washington, D.C.) - 15 miles	35

total digital employees    1532 (today)
total DCU member-accounts  2300(*)

All numbers are approximate.

(*) The value of 2300 member accounts is from the local DCU Branch Manager.  
She indicates this does not include family accounts.  This number is larger 
then I expected, but considering TFSO and the like, I have no reason to 
question it's validity.

722.3Really still at CXN???SSDEVO::RMCLEANFri Dec 03 1993 12:492
  I thought we eliminated the CXN ATM.  We don't occupy the sight any more it
is leased.
722.4PATE::MACNEALruck `n' rollFri Dec 03 1993 12:532
    I'm pretty sure that list is out of date.  Aren't the Puerto Rico and
    Springfield, MA sites closed now too?
722.5your right..CSC32::B_GRUBBSFri Dec 03 1993 13:309
    
    re:.3  yeah CXN is gone.....the ATM there WAS available for awhile even 
    after the site went to MCI, but the ATM has been pulled since sometime
    last summer.
    
    There are only two in CO, one in the lobby of each of the main
    buildings...CXO1 and CXO3

722.6FXO still there??ASIC::MYERSFri Dec 03 1993 15:011
