Digital robust participation in.

It would have kind of these two purposes, sometimes directional communication um and, in part, to be able to um help, uh communicate and explore the sleeping strategies policy, um especially around issues of equity, um as well as the cab really Express Community.

H

Our vision is that when we isolated an incidents occur that the cab continue to serve an independent voice for the community.

H

um You know in responses and that the business department they're able to be able to provide the position. Information surrounding both systems.

H

And also feels um partnership.

I

In terms of voting members.

G

B

A

H

Sure so there were a series of um uh like Survey Monkey surveys that were done as well as focus groups that have done with the birth members of the community, and this is the feedback that came back. Is that members of our community had either religion or experience um uh rating them or other forms of um treatment or behavior? That may have been concerned. Didn't.

A

Necessarily make it safe and.

F

So from there I.

H

Think the best was formed.

F

H

For the last two years, we've been really looking at a number of Divisions, one in which Gene Public Safety, which is where the community advisory report came out of. But then there have been some other ways around.

H

D

B

D

Within the the.

B

Description yeah, the.

A

Description of the community Advisory Board talks.

The concept that.

J

The last two years.

J

J

J

H

G

H

And Ron had invited um it was four different communities.

A

H

Get it started in the bath with the spirit of power, be truly a collaboration.

H

H

I would anticipate that, where we're going to be routine and communicating.

G

With you all right.

H

F

A

J

J

Some of the results.

B

K

K

H

J

J

K

Know just the concern being that um so.

D

A

K

D

In terms of advertising for.

B

F

F

H

B

H

I

A

A

D

H

Moving into direction.

H

A

B

A

E

E

E

H

Priorities and things to focus on um over a.

E

H

E

H

E

Conversation with the community um and.

H

We just uh put a draft.

H

H

B

B

B

D

E

Think the heart soul process and.

B

The the report from that presidents.

B

A

C

That there would not be much that would change.

D

B

Values would be a good effort to have.

B

C

B

C

C

A

C

L

Okay, thank you.

D

A

um And our growth is in areas that were different.

D

10 years ago, in terms of who's moving in um so.

I

A

Kind of effort, in some kind of like experience.

I

D

To reaching harder.

I

To reach groups.

A

In a community.

I

A

Experience guiding the communities through conversations around so sustainability when.

D

They're a community, so you almost can't really depend on our.

I

D

A

Model when we can't just count on a building um and uh figuring out how to identify a company.

D

A

D

Where they can do that.

I

um Experience does that make sense.

A

I

Think we do need a division admission.

A

I

To the community.

A

D

Making sure we have a.

A

Group that is skilled and experienced and created.

D

A

K

A

K

A

Are of most interestingly concerning.

B

E

100 but in terms.

B

D

B

B

D

I

Know is so if okay.

I

D

D

A

A

A house they think everything.

I

I

K

A

D

K

K

K

It's worthless enforcement.

K

K

K

Because the development went.

E

It's not that they've never heard.

K

It's that the code allows.

K

And the process.

D

A

I

A

Sort of attempt.
