Private Maker Bays are designed for approved members, small businesses, builders, artists, product creators, and production users who need dedicated workspace inside Geaux Cajun IT.
Private Maker Bays are subject to approval, availability, payment status, safety requirements, and compliance with all Geaux Cajun IT policies.

Private Maker Bays may be used for approved creative, maker, fabrication, business, assembly, storage, and production activities.
The bay may not be used for residential purposes, sleeping, illegal activity, hazardous operations, unapproved manufacturing, food production, chemical storage, or any use that creates safety, odor, fire, noise, insurance, or operational concerns.

Private Maker Bays are billed monthly. Pricing may vary based on size, access level, location, storage needs, included benefits, and availability.
Late or failed payments may result in suspended access, late fees, removal of property, or termination of the agreement.
