schoonschip: phase II 5 neighborhood digital monitoring system lows them to see whether or not the implemented habitat elements are increasing biodiversity. This can be a casual but effective way to monitor neighborhood biodiversity. The platform can also provide information on resource sharing, such as the availability of communal tools, electric vehicles, and offer opportunities for a kind of internal market that offers details on food production, childcare support, and other data that may be interesting on a community level. COST & LABOR ESTIMATES Each household will have its performance listed on a community monitoring system. With such a monitoring system, community members can see how much waste, water, and electricity is being produced by each household. The system will show the electricity use of the communal laundry facility, the amount of electricity produced by solar panels throughout the year, and important information from the D-SARR system, like gas production and nutrient levels. Using a digital management platform, the community can also track biodiversity by recording sightings of animals and birds over time. This alThe materials cost for the digital monitoring system are covered in the sensoring equipment purchased in phase one. The primary cost in establishing a neighborhood digital monitoring system is the design and implementation of an appropriate database and website. This will cost an estimated 150 hours of labor from an experienced professional, and may be done by a volunteer within the community. 6 additional communal facilities of a swimming pool and sauna and another should include a playground and recreational area for children. The two other floating programs should be allocated as gardens used for communal food production. In these areas, barbeques and other recreational functions can be integrated into the gardens. A communal food storage and processing area will be installed where community members can make jams and cheeses. A communal pantry can support bulk purchases of eco-friendly products and the sharing of local food production. The community should create a governing system for sharing joint food production and decide whether they wish to jointly purchase commodities from outside the site. The site plan contains space for four floating communal programs, none of which can be high and thus cannot be buildings or tall structures. We recommend that one area should consist Two of the buildings, instead of being households, will be used as communal laundry centers with a greenhouse on top. The site’s swimming pool will be heated partly by heat collectors which will harvest waste heat from the washing machines. These communal buildings can also incorporate their own business model, such as offering a bed-and-breakfast. The BnB would come online in phase two and would either be managed by the community or by some community members who would operate it as entrepreneurs. If the BnB is managed by the community, the earnings can be used for future technologies and other communal purchases, like financing the gardens or ongoing maintenance. Pagina 86
