AJ Anton Juodvalkis Public Seen by 169

Private company, public company, incorporated association, trust??

What type of entity would be used for this?

For the record, this is not my area, but I think a public company is out of the question (this would mean listing on a stock exchange and enormous compliance and regulation issues). Co-operatives are another option http://www.coopdevelopment.org.au/communityenterprises.html

If we used a company it would have to be public otherwise it's limited to 50 shareholders. Are you sure that a public company needs to be listed on a stock exchange though?

Maybe we can use Loomio for "voting" or at least of getting a clear idea of the weight of support for any particular proposal...?
