Thanks for the update. I'm not sure why, but it always feels like you are keeping the community at arm's length. Maybe it's different in the private DMs, I don’t know.
I’m just not sure why the dao hasn't been on this ride with Nouns Coffee. These are the people who funded this project, so maybe you could share some insight like: where the new location is, some photos, how much it cost, and how much has been drawn down to get to this point?
As mentioned above, this is not what the people voted for, so keeping them informed should be the minimum standard, IMO.

> Prop 450 is currently in the final stretch of a lease negotiation. We negotiated an LOI from December 5th 24 to Feb 27th 25, and received a lease and FF&E purchase agreement on March 18th. We are now making sure certain details are in place to ensure that this Nounish coffee shop has a long pathway forward.
>
> One of the reasons that we have taken our time is because we're extremely protective of the Nouns brand and want to provide an experience that honors this community. I would personally be extremely unhappy to create something that was temporary, signing an extractive lease and creating a shop that was unsustainable.

> All that said, I'm sorry for the lack of communication — brick and mortar is such a challenging process (as 87bones knows!) and we have always felt like we are juuuuuust a short time away from sharing good news with this group.

What passed is not what the dao is getting
+1
> The DAO approved a 2-of-3 multisig that allowed all of the funds to be moved offchain, with seemingly no visible progress since. I’m curious if those who initially voted for this proposal still feel the same way today. Both 40 and 4156 were key in pushing this through. I'd really like to hear their thoughts on the current status. If the funds were returned, would they still vote yes on the same proposal today?
>
> In his VWR, 4156 said "there’s realistically no clear path right now for the dao to own a coffee shop."
>
> But if the purchase hasn’t been finalized, couldn't DUNA technically take ownership? Returning the funds and reinvesting in the long-term success of the space is something I believe the entire DAO could get behind.
>
> Regardless of the outcome, this proposal passed. The DAO, in its previous structure, approved it. If you’re unhappy with that, reflect on the proposal’s design and the individuals involved before supporting similar proposals in the future.
>
> This proposal isn't a rug, it's just scuffed. Let's restructure how this is executed so everyone can feel good about it's success moving forward.
