Description
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Short Term Task Force Meeting #1
A
And
I'd
like
to
start
by
saying
that
the
city
of
Bend
recognizes
the
immense
work
and
time
that
you
all
have
put
into
this
short
term
task
force
and
on
behalf
of
the
entire
city
of
Bend.
We
want
to
thank
you
for
your
time,
your
expertise
and
your
willingness
to
dedicate
time
to
this
important
important
work.
A
Over
the
past
year,
the
city
of
Bend
has
partnered
with
Ally
chef
in
action,
as
many
of
you
know,
and
through
a
contract,
that's
prevent
primarily
focused
on
the
City
Council
goals,
specifically
embedding
a
commitment
to
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion,
and
then
the
other
part
of
that
was
to
publish
statistics
and
I
wanted
to.
Let
you
all
know
that,
although
the
city
council
role
is
to
provide
those
statistics
by
June
30th,
we
have
been
delayed
due
to
kovat,
and
so
we
will
be
those.
Those
results
will
be
published,
probably
within
the
next
two
months.
B
Shelley
I'll
also
fess
up
to
being
a
first
timer
and
then
facilitating
a
public
meeting
event.
So
everyone's
graced
with
that
on
that
up
note,
I
was
wondering
if
we
wanted
to
give
it
a
couple
minutes
or
is
it
okay?
If
we
go
through
comes
these
introductory
pieces
as
we're
having
more
task
force,
members
do
I,
not
because
I
think
don't
think
we
have
everyone
quite
in
the
the
room,
so
to
speak,
yet
not
sure
what
that
typical
approaches
on
that
piece.
B
A
B
E
F
B
F
B
B
You
know
the
context
in
which
we're
coming
to
this
conversation
from,
and
so
just
want
to
acknowledge
that
you
know
before
white
folks
called
this
place.
Central
Oregon.
It
was
a
place
where
digit
indigenous
people
lived
travel
to
trade,
it
efficient,
thrived
for
generations,
and
those
indigenous
communities
include
the
northern
Paiute,
the
Wasco,
the
Klamath
Lawrence
brings
people
in
and
others
as
well,
and
just
to
know
that
you
know
the
reason
we're
able
to
be
here
essentially
in
the
city
of
Bend
is
due
to
that
displacement
of
indigenous
communities.
It
was
formalized
when
the
u.s.
B
government,
you
know,
could
basically
course
tribes
into
giving
up
their
right
to
live
on
the
lands
that
had
traditionally
sustained
them
and
relocated
them
to
reservations.
Indigenous
folks
are
still
very
much
a
part
of
our
community
today
right,
but
we
just
think
it's
important
to
acknowledge
this
history
to
honor
the
land
and
the
sovereignty
of
the
tribal
nations
on
whose
traditional
lands
we
live,
work
and
recreate
so
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
put
that
out
there
there's
a
slide
that
speaks
to
that
names.
B
That's
in
the
group,
but
I
think
the
next
slide
has
a
graphic
that
there
we
go.
Thank
you
so
much
that
just
kind
of
provides
a
little
context
in
terms
of
where
Ben
fits
within
was
previously
the
lands
that
ruff
indigenous
folks.
So
thanks
for
that,
I
think
we're
going
to
start
off
with
that
summary
of
the
public
comments
that
we
received
from
Shelly
laughter
that
will
kind
of
go
into
just
an
overview
of
you
know
kind.
A
Thanks
Erin,
we
did
have
to
as
I
mentioned
public
comment
comments.
One
came
through
email,
one
came
through
the
phone,
so
I'm
gonna
go
ahead,
and
since
there
are
two
and
they're,
both
concise
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
read
those
out
loud
for
this
group,
the
first
was
the
email.
The
first
email
is
from
Ben
Michael
hunky
and
the
contents
that
the
email
are
as
follows.
Please
include
this
in
the
public
comment.
A
Section
of
today's
meeting
then
needs
a
Human
Rights
Commission,
with
teeth
to
adequately
deal
with
issues
of
racism,
bias,
discrimination
and
hate,
not
a
watered
down
and
toothless
committee.
It
is
more
than
a
bit
disappointing
that,
in
the
wake
of
massive
rallies
and
protests
led
by
people
of
color
in
our
community
that
this
is
the
best
the
city
can
come
up
with.
That's
the
end
of
the
first
public
comment.
The
set
a
second
public
comment
was
left
by
phone
been
resident.
A
A
Miss
Keebler
supports
a
HR
Commission
Human
Rights
Commission
versus
an
advisory
council,
and
she
does
believe
that
the
city
is
what
needs
to
be
held
accountable
for
moving
this
process
forward
in
a
way
that
provides
a
forum
for
folk
books
in
our
community
to
report
bias
and
hate
crime.
So
those
are
the
two
public
comments
and
I
have
those
on
file.
Thank
you.
B
I
think
shallots
very
much
so
today.
I
really
kind
of
the
objective
we're
hoping
to
accomplish
in
this
meeting
is
to
really
dive
back
into.
You
know
the
needs
and
priorities
that
the
task
force
identified,
as
well
as
some
of
the
recommendations
that
you
all
started
coming
up
with,
as
well
as
consider
some
of
the
feedback
from
staff
and
members
of
the
stewardship
subcommittee,
so
that
you
can
use
all
of
that
information
to
kind
of
figure
out
how
you
want
to
move
forward
on
finalizing
those
recommendations
accountable.
B
So
you
know,
as
a
reminder,
you
know
I
think
she'll
be
supposed
to
directive,
to
establish
the
short-term
committee
to
assist
in
identifying
the
needs
and
priorities.
Underserved
and
underrepresented
communities
in
Bend,
and
also
one
of
the
council
goals,
was
to
establish
a
permanent
commission
or
committee
to
develop
a
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
plan
and
seek
opportunities
to
leverage
community
efforts
to
through
funding
and
support
and
so
kind
of
how
our
scope
of
work
connects
to
that.
We
were
passed
with
establishing
a
baseline
for
the
city's
DDI
work
through
interviews,
surveys
engaging
with
different
groups.
B
We
also
get
to
lead
the
establishment
of
this
taskforce
to
provide
a
series
of
trainings
and
then
to
make
some
recommendations
to
the
city
for
future
actions.
So
just
to
kind
of
have
that
grounding
of
you
know
the
context
of
where
all
this
is
coming
from.
We
could
go
to
the
next
slide
thanks.
So
much
just
wanted
to
briefly
walk
our
way
up
to
kind
of
where
we
are
right.
Now
we
did
interview
six
city
councilors
as
well
as
15
external
community
stakeholders.
B
You
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
great
and
so
just
again,
an
overview
of
kind
of
what
we're
hoping
to
accomplish
is
to
review
and
discuss
those
needs
and
priorities,
review
the
feedback
on
the
draft
recommendations
and
then
discuss
you
know
whatever
potential
revisions
or
additions.
You
know
any
changes
that
you
might
want
to
make
as
you
finalize
those
recommendations
and
I
kind
of
clarify
the
next
steps
for
the
process,
all
right,
perfect.
A
So,
as
some
of
you
may
know
that
the
city
and
obviously
has
the
council
goals
and
the
city
event
has
staff
that
have
been
working
for
for
over
a
year
on
creating
internal
policies
and
practices
related
to
Dei,
and
we
kicked
off
a
more
intentional
call
to
action
at
our
annual
business
meeting
in
March.
You
know
at
that
business
meeting.
It
was
to
provide
all
staff
city
staff
with
an
update
of
what's
happening
within
the
the
progress
towards
the
Dei
initiatives,
both
internally
and
externally.
A
Many
of
the
the
most
of
the
part
of
what
we
provided
was
in
the
call
to
action
was
really
about
engaging
individuals,
departments
and
teams
and
the
organization
around.
What's
what
specific
strategies
they
could
engage
in
to
help
move
this
forward
from
those
different
platforms
and
as
an
organization
and
the
city
event,
has
really
continued
to
make
investments
in
the
ways
of
a
wide
array
of
training
option
opportunities
staff
have
been
invited
to
join
informal
discussion
groups
that
have
been
facilitated
by
dr.
shell
Erickson.
A
We
have
provided
in
the
events,
follow
sorry
event,
sponsorships
that
support
underrepresented
communities
and
Bend,
and
then
we've
dedicated
staff
time
before
in
a
Dei
council
goal.
One
of
the
other
areas
that
the
city
event
has
been
involved
locally
is
with
the
in
the
inclusive
innovation
initiative
or
i3
as
part
of
their
hearing
committee
and
their
vision,
development.
They
have
an
incredible
tool,
called
building
bridges,
recruitment,
hiring
and
retention
guide,
a
toolkit
for
creating
a
more
diverse
workforce.
A
A
member
to
a
few
members
of
our
HR
department
have
participated
on
the
development
of
that
and
reviewing
document,
as
well
as
integrating
some
of
the
key
principles
of
that
toolkit
within
the
city
of
Bend,
and
then
I.
Think.
The
last
piece
that
I
wanted
to
highlight
is
with
all
of
the
impact
of
kovat.
A
It
has,
as
we
know,
how
to
disproportional
impact
on
vulnerable
communities
and
one
of
the
ways
that
we're
trying
to
address
that
is
through
looking
at
our
council
goals
and
ways
that
we
can
revise
those
to
incorporate
the
negative
impacts
of
coab
at
19.
So
we
actually
created
based
on
the
state
of
Oregon's
equity
framework.
A
G
Shelly,
yes,
it
beyond
beyond
that
I
think
there's
been,
you
know,
events
that
have
really
prompted
all
of
us
to
think
more
beyond
what
we've
just
included
in
what
Charlie
talked
about
as
part
of
the
council
goals,
around
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion.
How
can
we
broaden
our
impact
and
think
maybe
even
bigger
picture
and
we've
been
talking
in
this
sort
of
freight,
with
this
framework
in
mind
for
the
last
couple
of
years
of
this,
what
we
call
kind
of
a
collective
impact
model
or
shared
governance?
G
What
are
those
topics
that
that
are
here
in
Bend
that
really
trench
that
should
transcend
the
the
silos
of
government,
whether
they
be
school
districts,
County,
city,
library,
etc?
We
have
just
like
a
lot
of
cities
in
this
country
kind
of
a
fragmentation
of
delivering
government
services,
but
those
issues,
such
as
mental
health,
homelessness,
diversity,
equity
inclusion.
G
They
really
are
bigger
issues
that
we
all
need
to
chip
in
and
really
I
think
our
collective,
if
we
join
forces
I,
think,
will
have
a
better
impact
on
making
real
change.
So
this
idea
is
something
that
was
codified
recently
in
council
roles
of
pulling
ourselves
together.
As
local
government
agencies
and
the
Central
Oregon
intergovernmental
Council,
which
they're
charged
with
really
responding
to
local
government,
needs
that's
sort
of
in
their
mission,
they're
set
up
through
an
Oregon
State
statute.
G
To
do
that,
work,
we've
asked
for
them
to
pull
us
together
that
started
in
January
and,
like
most
things,
kind
of
took
a
break
when
code
would
hit
and
March,
but
it
got
picked
back
up.
We
had
our
first
meeting
with
schools,
library
parks
and
the
city
with
the
intent
to
identify
those
areas
of
common
concern.
The
number
one
issue
that
everybody
would
like
to
tackle
is
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion.
G
So
to
that
end,
we've
asked
for
help
from
ally
ship
to
think
through
what
a
model
might
look
like
that
collective
impact,
shared
governance
model
to
to
be
able
to
so
to
promote
the
work.
That's
happening
already
provide
some
needed
funding
to
support
the
the
work
of
training
and
community,
but
partnership
building
and
all
you
know
some
of
the
things
that
are
done
now
on
a
more
ad-hoc
basis
to
really
sustain
some
funding.
G
If
we
all
I
think
the
envision,
the
vision
is
that
we
all
contribute
that
and
then
what
does
that
organization
look
like,
and
you
know,
there's
models
out
there
like
better
together
on
the
education
side
and
there's
the
homeless
leadership
coalition.
There's
there
there
are
models
to
explore,
and
so
we
were
in
that
process
right
now
of
exploring
it
and
then
making
sure
that
we,
as
the
city
are
helping
to
start
the
effort,
but
hopefully
having
this
sort
of
rest
within
the
Central
Oregon
governmental
council,
which
is
that
kind
of
Regional
Council
of
government.
B
Right,
well,
we
can
dive
back
in
and
this
thing's
gonna.
Imagine
if
people
have
questions
along
the
way
you
know
we
ask
them
and
whoever
is
able
to
answer
them
can
so
you
know
just
to
kind
of
briefly
review
or
the
task
force
has
been
so
far
kind
of
what
you
all
have
done
previously
and
where
we
are
today.
You
know
y'all
identified
something
needs
and
priorities
of
historically
marginalized
and
underrepresented
communities
in
Bend,
evaluated,
existing
models
for
dpi
committees
and
commissions,
to
kind
of
identify
with
the
common
roles,
responsibilities,
authorities
etc.
B
For
those
groups
make
sure
what
are
the
building
blocks
that
exist
out
there?
How
do
they
work
identified?
The
ways
in
which
EDI
committee
or
Commission
could
potentially
support
the
city
in
meeting
those
identified
needs,
including
those
that
are
articulated
in
the
council
goal
of
meeting
a
dpi
action
plan.
We
gaze
on
leaving
with
comedy
groups
and
also
y'all,
have
conversations
kind
of
identifying
the
strengths
and
weakness
as
a
committee
versus
a
commission.
So
that's
kind
of
you
know
to
get
the
folks
up
to
speed.
That
might
not
be
as
familiar
like.
B
That's
kinda
just
of
what
we
covered
so
far.
The
next
slide
talks
about
what
remains
to
be
done
so
for
us
to
deliberate
on
the
findings
from
all
of
that
previous
work,
including
feedback
from
various
sources
and
and
also
you
know,
wanting
to
recognize
that
there's
a
lot
going
on
in
the
world
right
now,
so
the
the
recommendations.
You
know
that
you
all
talked
about
you
know
a
month
or
two
ago.
You
might
have
a
different
perspective
on
those
now
right,
so
I
want
to
leave
space
for
that
as
well.
B
You
know,
ultimately,
we
need
to
finalize
those
recommendations
and
feedback
on
the
needs
and
priorities,
and
hopefully
at
the
next
meeting.
So
many
folks
are
ready
to
do
that
vote
to
approve
the
final
recommendations
that
you
all
want
to
send
on
to
Council
so
kind
of
the
dates
and
deadlines
that
are
relevant
to
that
that
you
all
should
know
about
July
28th
city
staff
or
going
to
present
the
task
force
recommendations
to
the
stewardship
subcommittee.
B
Does
that
make
sense
of
our
questions
about
kind
of
the?
Where
do
we
go
from
here?
Peace
all
right?
Well,
then,
we
can
keep
on
moving
forward
if
you
perfect
so
before
we
dive
into
reflecting
on
the
feedback
from
the
city
staff.
Excuse
me
and
members
of
the
stewardship
subcommittee
I
just
wanted
to
make
a
quick
note
about
kind
of
the
framing
of
how
we're
approaching
the
conversation
one
of
the
documents
and
the
materials
was
that
I
think
all
the
Dei
task
force
proposed
draft
recommendations.
Staff
feedback
I
just
want
to
clarify
that.
B
That's
meant
to
be
a
starting
point
for
conversation,
and
we
know.
That's
not.
You
know
a
verbatim
translation
of
the
recommendations
you
all
have
talked
about
before,
so
really
just
hoping
to
have
that
be
a
starting
point
for
conversation
and
just
want
to
remind
folks
that
the
task
force
will,
you
know
be
the
one
sought
me
ultimately
decide
what
they
want
to
pass
on
as
recommendations
and
that
will
to
be
in
the
final
report.
B
B
Okay,
and
then
you
know
just
briefly
wanted
to
speak
to
sorry,
we're
not
quite
ready
for
the
next
slide
yet
Thanks,
there's
some
things
that
just
aren't
on
the
slides
I
didn't
make
a
slide
for
everything,
unfortunately,
but
also
just
wanted
to
speak
a
little
bit
to
you
know
why
we're
having
public
meetings
now
versus
not
before
I
mean
I.
Think
as
the
task
force
members
know.
B
In
the
beginning,
we
was
conceived
of
as
kind
of
a
City
Advisory
Committee
to
the
city,
a
short
term,
a
task
force
that
wouldn't
require
that
of
engagement,
but
as
it
moved
into
making
recommendations
to
council,
that's
the
sort
of
thing
that
definitely
needs
to
happen
in
a
public
space.
So
sorry,
someone's
car
alarms
going
off
in
the
background
there,
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
right
that
were
creating
opportunities
for
folks
to
give
back
and
yeah
and
doing
as
advised.
D
B
We're
actually,
this
is
where
we
have
it
we're
just
starting
on
the
slide.
So
this
is
a
perfect
time
to
do
that.
So
we're
gonna
speak
a
little
bit.
Some
of
the
feedback
we
got
from
staff
and
the
stewardship
subcommittee
members,
who
are
members
of
council
I,
think
one
of
the
first
topics
and
I
think
topic
of
interest
to
everyone.
B
Right
is
this
idea
of
a
committee
versus
a
commission
and
just
to
kind
of
briefly
summarize
and
I'd
love
to
hear
you
know
whatever
thoughts,
Joannie
or
others
want
to
share
is
the
the
primary
differences
as
we
understand
it.
Is
that
a
committee,
at
least
in
the
city
of
band,
writes
every
city.
Does
it
well
differently?
A
committee
is
typically
something
that
is
created
by
a
city,
council
or
staff,
whereas
Commission
is,
and
Bend
at
least
typically
tied
to
a
state
statute.
B
The
scope
and
authority
of
a
committee
within
the
city
code
again
typically
limited
to
making
recommendations
to
council,
broadly
speaking,
whereas
a
commission
usually
has
a
scope
of
authority
defined
by
that
statute
and
then
the
other
you
know
piece
that
came
up
in
feedback.
Was
that
a
commission?
You,
depending
on
what
all
it
took
on,
would
potentially
have
a
higher
would
require
a
higher
level
of
staff
support,
and
so
those
are
kind
of
some
of
the
things
that
were
highlighted
in
those
conversations.
D
D
D
F
You,
okay,
I'm
unmuted,
Thank,
You
Joanne
I,
just
like
to
reinforce
what
Joe
and
said
I'm,
not
sure
what
all
the
legal
ramifications
may
be
of
establishing
a
commission,
but
there
is
more
than
just
a
symbolic
importance
attached
to
a
commission.
The
commission,
in
my
view
versus
a
committee,
doesn't
require
a
lot
of
thought
in
terms
of
trying
to
understand
what
the
difference
is.
The
Commission
implies
a
certain
long-term
view
of
the
problems
that
we
want
to
address.
F
We
understand
that
a
commission
is
not
a
judicial
body,
but
it
can
certainly
serve
in
a
long-term
capacity
to
help
with
those
who
feel
they
don't
have
access
either
to
justice
or
to
services
or
do
a
lot
of
other
things
that
today
are
ignored.
I
was
under
the
impression
that
the
City
Council
wanted
such
a
long
term
view
of
the
problem
and
Commission,
it
seems
to
me,
serves
such
a
purpose.
It
implies
an
advisory
role,
but
it
also
implies
independence.
F
We
need
a
commission
that
is
independent
of
other
components
of
the
city,
although
it
doesn't
mean
that
we
don't
work
in
a
consultative
way.
I
think
that
is
a
very
important
issue
that
a
commission
has
some
independence
to
both
pursue
specific
objectives
and
to
advise
that
advisory
role
has
to
be
conducted
in
an
independent
way
and
I.
Think
a
commission
lends
some
weight
to
that
process.
Thank
you.
H
I'd
like
to
the
chair,
sometimes
as
well
as
Fehmi
hi,
everyone
Rodrigo
here,
I
just
want
to
apologize
for
being
gone
previously.
I
think
making
this
space
I
want
to
reiterate
the
points
that
ramier
and
joanne
made
and
maybe
offer
a
complimentary
framing,
because
I
agree
that
the
Commission
should
be
the
way
that
we
go
precisely
for
the
points
that
Joanne
and
ramier
have
made
about
the
the
shared
power
and
the
independence
that
this
would
create
for
communities
of
color
and
other
marginalized
communities
and
frame
this
actually,
as
the
more
equitable
decision
to
make
right.
H
H
Our
communities
have
been
historically
disempowered,
not
having
power
to
make
the
decisions,
and
this
would
be
one
small
way
to
give
people
some
of
that
agency
and
disrupt
really
the
same
paternalistic
power
dynamics
where
why
people
stay
in
positions
of
power
and
and
people
of
color
are
given
sort
of
sort
of
these
cosmetic
positions
where
we
can
give
recommendations
but
have
no
actual
independence.
And
so
yes,
my
support
is
for
the
Commission
and
for
the
sharing
of
power.
B
Thinks
I
don't
know
if
there
are
other
folks
that
want
to
share
comments.
I
just
want
to
highlight
the
themes.
I'm
hearing
I
think
I
really
seem
to
be
around
independence
agency
and
shared
powers
that
that
sounds
right
kind
of
the
the
themes
I'm
hearing
out
of
the
comments
I've
heard
so
far
are
there
other
folks
are
do
either
I
know
there
were
reference
to
kind
of
council
intent
in
there
as
well
I,
don't
know
if
either,
if
the
councillors
on
the
call
want
to
speak
to
that
or
if
their
staff
have
a
follow-up
questions.
I
I
Can
you
guys
hear
me
so
one
of
the
questions
that
I
have
and
I
guess
what
I
would
say
is
I
want
to
be
really
clear.
I
am
not
necessarily
opposed
to
a
commission,
but
as
somebody
that
hasn't
been,
as
involved
in
the
discussions
that
you
guys
have
it's
I,
don't
I
don't
feel
like
the
case
has
been
made
that
you
need
a
commission
as
opposed
to
some
other
model.
There's
a
part
of
me
that
people
keep
talking
about
it.
I'm
also
I'm
also
concerned
that
this
is
a
little
bit
beyond.
I
Actually
what
the
what
the
council
asked
and
so
I
totally
get
that
you
guys
are
going
for
what
for
what
you
believe
is
right,
but
I
I
just
want
to
I
just
want
to
kind
of
kind
of
weigh
in
that.
From
my
perspective,
it
seems
to
me
like
there's
sort
of
this.
It's
a
commission
or
nothing
and
and
not
no
other
model,
will
work
and
I
I.
I
Just
I
haven't
seen
the
stats
or
I
guess
what
I
would
say
is
help
me
understand
her
or
maybe
give
me
given
some
examples
of
what
a
Human
Rights
Commission
in
another
community
has
done
that
we
could
do
because
we
need
it
here
and
then-
and
maybe
it's
just
because
I
haven't
been
informed.
But
from
my
from
my
perspective,
I,
don't
think
the
case
has
been
made.
Why
you
absolutely
need
a
commission,
as
opposed
to
some
of
the
creative
model,
that
I
think
Eric
and
a
lot
of
the
other
govern
agencies
are
looking
at.
J
I'll
just
respond
a
little
bit
to
that
in
pirate
bridge.
First
of
all,
I
think
part
of
what
we
asked
the
task
force
to
do
was
to
provide
a
recommendation
on
Commission
versus
committee,
so
I
don't
think
it's
beyond
the
scope
of
what
we
ask
them
to
do,
because
we
ask
them
to
provide
a
recommendation
and
that's
what
they're
doing.
Maybe
it
goes
beyond
the
scope
of
what
we
had
in
mind.
J
The
reason
for
a
recommendation
was
that
I
didn't
know
what
was
needed
because
I'm,
not
a
member
of
a
marginalized
community,
so
I
can't
know
what
what
is
needed.
So
this
is
the
recommendation.
That's
coming
to
us
I
think
if,
if
we
feel
like
it
would
be
better
received
by
Council
with
some
more
specific
examples,
that's
good
feedback
for
the
for
the
consultants
and
for
the
task
force
to
incorporate
that
in
to
their
arguments,
all
right,
but
I'm
also
I.
J
I
G
Maybe,
if
I
can
build
up
build
off
of
what
sorry
about
that
build
off
of
what
Jenna
was
saying.
I
think
that
is
the
chart
points
out.
That's
on
the
slide.
Council
has
the
authority
to
create
a
committee.
We
don't
Council
does
not
have
authority
to
create
a
commission.
We
would
need
statutory
authority
from
the
state
to
do
that.
That's
not
a
that's!
That's
a
difficult
process!
I'm,
not
saying
it's!
It's
not
possible,
but
it
might
be
I
guess
two
step
approach.
G
If
get
a
committee
form
to
really
fine-tune
the
scope,
make
the
case
really
create.
You
know
what
a
commission
would
look
like
and
put
that
focus
on
it.
So
I,
don't
I,
don't
think
it's
a
question
of
you
know,
need
or
whatnot
I
think,
there's
openness
to
the
idea.
It's
just!
How
do
you
build
towards
it?
Given
the
City
Council
only
has
so
much
authority,
so
I
think
that
was.
G
We
are
trying
to
find
a
way
to
incorporate
what
we
heard
from
at
least
through
alley
ship,
the
the
feedback
of
the
meetings
that
you've
had
to
date
and
I
think
what
we
were
kind
of
digesting
was.
Maybe,
let's
start
with
the
committee
that
would
work
part
of
their
work.
Scope
of
this
committee.
That
council
has
the
authority
to
appoint
would
be
to
really
fully
scope.
This
idea
of
a
Human
Rights
Commission.
K
K
I
hope
to
point
out
that,
while
the
the
committee
Commission
dichotomy
is
I
think
useful
shorthand
for
people
when
they,
when
they
talk
about
what
a
body
is
going
to
be
and
what
it
can
do,
it's
not
really
that
clean
and
and
by
way
of
example,
there
are
several
cities,
Beaverton
Eugene,
I,
think
Portland
and
Seattle
two
that
have
what
what
they
call
Commission's.
But
these
are
bodies
that
largely
serve
advisory
roles
to
city
government,
City
Council.
K
Some
of
them
provide
conciliatory
services
like
mediation,
restorative
justice
services
that
can
help
people
try
to
identify
issues
and
solve
problems
largely
on
a
voluntary
participatory
basis.
But
even
some
of
these
bodies
that
are
called
Commission's,
don't
really
have
enforcement
authority,
like
some
people
might
think
they
do
so
so,
while
the
nomenclature
that
the
terms
are
useful,
is
we
talk
about
concepts
for
what
what
recommendations
might
ultimately
be
made
in
terms
of
what
this
body,
or
maybe
multiple
bodies
should
be?
K
The
devil
is
really
in
the
details
when
and
at
some
point
you're
going
to
need
to
start
talking
about
I'm
sure
you
already
have.
What
exactly
do
you
think
this
body,
whether
it's
called
a
committee
or
Commission,
is
going
to
be
empowered
to
do?
It
seems
obvious
to
me
that
making
examining
issues,
identifying
sources
of
problems
and
making
recommendations
on
a
permanent
basis
should
be
part
of
it,
but
there's
a
there.
There
are
other
questions.
What
do
you
want
them
to
be
able
to
do
in
terms
of
providing
services
to
people
and
what?
K
What
do
you
want
them
to
be
able
to
do
in
terms
of
providing
either
dispute
resolution
for
problems
or
creating
jurisdiction
to
enforce
complaints
that
come
to
them?
So
that's
where
I
think
it
gets
really
interesting,
and
that's
really
independent
of
this
discussion
about
committee
or
Commission,
because
there
are
plenty
of
Commission's
that
don't
have
the
ability
to
do
those
things.
They
don't
really
have
the
ability
to
enforce
complaints
in
sort
of
a
Q
native
way
outside
of
parties
agreeing
to
participate
in
some
kind
of
conciliation
process.
K
H
I
was
just
gonna
share,
I
think
some
really
great
points
have
been
made,
but
I
just
want
to
come
back
to
I,
guess,
look
what
that
I
wanted
to
make
is
that
were
I
think,
regardless
of
what
we
decide
to
call
it,
a
commission
or
a
committee
that
that
understanding
is
to
the
understanding
that
we
were
talking
about
about
this.
Being
a
mechanism
towards
sharing
power
needs
to
be
the
basis
of
what
we
decide
to
do.
H
Personally,
I
would
like
the
Commission
to
have
the
power
to
investigate
instances
of
of
mistreatment,
so,
for
example,
I
used
to
be
an
interpreter
at
the
clinics
and
at
the
hospital
and
the
number
of
folks
who
would
be
treated
poorly
by
their
physicians.
Who
would
be
given
less
time
with
them?
Less
advice
are
less
time
to
talk
about
what
the
procedures
are
less
time
to
talk
about
what
the
repercussions
are.
H
Those
things
I
saw
routine
and
yes,
it's
anecdotal
right,
but
if
there
was
a
place
where
people
could
bring
those
kinds
of
concerns
and
complaints
and
then
that
body
would
have
the
power
to
investigate.
If
some
sort
of
discriminatory
thing
was
happening,
then
that
would
be
that
you
know
that
I
would
like
to
see
that
kind
of
thing
happen
and
the
and
the
commission
or
committee
have
that
kind
of
power.
H
I'm
sorry
I
had
another
example
in
it.
Just
flew
out
of
my
mind,
but
just
to
reiterate
that
whatever
the
decision
is
that
the
City
Council
makes
that
that
understanding
and
that
commitment
to
empowering
people
to
be
in
control
of
the
decisions
that
the
mission
makes
should
be
at
the
heart
of
what
we
decide
to
do.
D
If
I
could
chime
in
quickly
I
finally
like
to
acknowledge
the
power
dynamics
at
play
during
this
meeting,
there
are
three
people
of
color
that
has
share
why
we
have
recommended
a
commission
and
we
have
white
people
in
power
asking
what
convinced
me
that
that's
what
you
really
need
and
I
think
the
work
we
are
doing
is
because
we
have
recognized
that
those
dynamics
of
convinced
me
tell
me
more.
Is
it
really
necessary
it's?
What
is
causing
inequities
right?
D
D
I
would
like
to
add
the
example
of
all
the
folks
that
need
to
apply
for
financial
assistance
for
rental
assistance,
and
there
are
asked
a
letter
from
their
employer
proving
that
they
have
been
laid
off
or
that
their
hours
of
being
reduced
and
the
amount
of
comments
that
I've
seen
from
the
community
about
my
employer
won't
answer.
My
phone
I
am
NOT
their
priority.
D
Just
a
fear
right
these
power
dynamic
that
people
have
to
ask
for
the
very
basic
of
recognition
of
their
work
so
that
they
can
access.
Services
is
the
reason
why
we're
doing
this
work
so
I
hope
that
as
we
move
forward
in
this
meeting
and
in
all
other
conversations
that
we
all
Center
those
impacted
by
liquid
ease.
Thank
you.
B
B
F
I
make
a
comment
first,
I'd
like
to
reinforce
what
Joanne
just
said,
I.
Think
the
question
of
it's
a
little
bit
disingenuous
to
be
told
that
we
need
to
convince
you
as
to
why
a
commission
is
needed
versus
a
committee.
I
think
that's
it's
condescending.
It's
unnecessary
and
I
think
we
should
move
beyond
that.
We
want
a
commission
whether
or
not
the
City
Council
is
in
a
position
to
set
up
a
commission
in
terms
of
legal
ability.
K
I
can
speak
to
that
Ian
white
Heiser
from
the
City
Attorney's
Office
again.
I
think
that
one
way
to
think
about
that
is
that
of
the
Commission's
that
the
city
has
and
again
this
kind
of
goes
back
to
the
nomenclature
issue,
a
committee
or
a
commission,
and
whether
there
are
material
distinctions
between
those
two
terms
because,
as
I
said
before,
those
aren't
to
me
really
neat
and
necessarily
distinct
categories.
The
city
of
Bend
has
a
couple
of
commissions.
We
have
a
Civil
Service
Commission.
K
We
have
a
Planning,
Commission
I
think
we
have
a
historic
I'm
trying
to
remember
if
the
Landmarks
Commission
is
a
commission
or
a
committee,
but
in
our
and
then
we
have
all
of
these
committees
that
are
permanent
committees,
they
exist
on
a
permanent
basis
they're
in
the
code.
The
distinction
that
we
have
in
the
city
of
Bend
at
this
point
is
that
all
of
our
so-called
Commission's
are
bodies
that
are
authorized
to
carry
out
their
functions
because
there's
a
state
statute
or
set
of
state
statutes
that
authorizes
them
to
do
so.
K
There
are
civil
service
statutes
that
require
us
to
have
a
Civil,
Service
Commission.
There
are
planning
statutes
that
require
us
to
have
a
Planning
Commission,
so
that's
I
think
the
distinction
that
Eric
was
trying
to
make
between
a
commission
as
we
see
it,
which
is
tied
to
a
state
statute
or
a
committee,
as
we
see
it
in
the
city
which
tend
to
be
established
and
live
via
the
code.
K
Much
like
our
committees
do.
They
may
have
the
ability
to
investigate
complaints,
try
to
resolve
issues,
but
they
don't
necessarily
all
of
them
anyway.
Have
enforcement
capacity
or
kind
of
an
independent
adjudicatory
function
like
most
people,
think
about
when
they
hear
the
word
commission?
So
hopefully
that's
helpful.
J
F
Just
like
to
be
clear
about
something
here,
I
fully
recognize
that
there
is
the
work
of
the
Commission,
the
scope
of
its
functions
and
so
forth
need
to
be
further
defined
and
that
it's
quite
possible
that
calling
it
a
committee
or
a
commission
may
make
no
difference.
That
need
still
exists
that
we
have
to
define
what
the
committee
or
Commission
does.
J
K
That's
correct
most
of
them
do
you
know,
and
there
this
is
a
hopefully,
a
helpful
Hannah
log.
So
are
the
city
of
Benton's
Equal,
Rights
Ordinance
for
lack
of
a
better
term.
It
farms
out
enforcement
to
either
Boley
or
a
private
right
of
action
in
state
court.
Some
of
the
Commission's
and
other
cities
essentially
do
the
same
thing.
So
they're
they're
bodies
that
those
cities
set
up
on
a
discretionary
basis
because
they
could
but
they're
not
required
to
right.
K
I
think
to
to
mister
Energy's
point
the
what
symbolism
or
communicating
something
there
might
be
different
ways
to
think
about
it,
but
I
do
think
that
calling
something
a
commission
versus
a
committee
can
resonate
in
different
ways
with
with
different
people
and
can
carry
more
weight.
My
the
point
I'm
trying
to
make,
and
hopefully
that
input
I'm
trying
to
offer,
is
just
that
well,
I
think
that's
true
deciding
on
which
of
those
things
you're
going
to
call
it
doesn't
answer
or
even
begin
to
answer
all
of
those
questions
about
what
it's
going
to
do.
L
And
I
guess
the
question
that
I
had
in
terms
of
like
actions
for
this
task
force
to
develop
next
to
actions
for
an
established
committee
or
Commission
could
be
clarifying
city
ordinance
that
would
set
up
within
the
city
of
bend's
code
structure.
Much
like
it
exists
in
Eugene,
OR
Salem,
the
the
the
essentially
the
structure
and
functions
and
authority
of
a
city
of
Bend,
Human,
Rights,
Commission,
correct,
so
I
think,
there's
one
of
the
questions
I
have
is.
L
What
comes
first,
because
I
think
part
of
the
issue
here
as
well
as
committee
members
have
or
Task
Force
members
are
sharing
very
clearly
their
their
desires
for
how
this
moves
forward.
And
then
the
question
is
what
is
the
procedural
procedural
work
and
who
is
available
to
help
move
that
forward,
so
that
we
have
the
type
of
commission
that
this
commit?
This
Task
Force
recommends.
G
Yeah
I
mean
I
think
when
you
you're
kind
of
summarizing
what
I
was
saying
earlier
to
of
just
like,
maybe
there's
a
way
to
I
think
get
the
intent
I'm
hearing
the
intent
and
I
think
that
there's
good
intent,
I
think
there's
a
way
to
get
there.
It's
just.
How
do
we
what's
the
best
most
efficient
way
to
do
it
and
the
code?
The
council
has
the
authority
to
set
up
a
code
to
create
and
we
could
even
call
it
a
commission.
G
That's
fine,
I
think
just
to
be
consistent,
I
think
that's
what
you're
hearing
from
the
attorneys
is
that
we
typically
don't
call
things
like
our
Affordable
Housing
Committee,
our
economic
development
advisory
board
they're
either
boards
or
committees
that
we
don't
typically
call
the
Commission.
However,
as
that's
not
consistent
across
the
board,
some
cities
don't
have
that
same
type
of
delineation,
but
the
idea
being
that,
if
you
want
to
get
moving,
the
council
can
create
this
code
with
the
idea.
G
If
you
wanted
to
create
a
true
commission
that
might
have
enforcement
ability,
that's
where
something
like
a
regional
effort
might
be
beneficial
or
where
everybody's
contributing
that
way
investigations
can
be
done
in
schools
and
other
jurisdictions.
Where
you
know
the
city
just
offers
public
safety,
community
economic
development
and
infrastructure
services
we're
not
a
tree
or
not
like
other
cities
that
might
have
a
broader
array
of
services.
So
my
concern
is
just
making
sure
we're
aligning
expectations
of
what
our
intent
is
with
with
this
group
and,
let's
make
sure
we
position
it
successfully.
G
So
that
way
it
has
the
broadest
impact
and
that's
where
a
regional
body
and
some
some
areas
have
done
that,
were
they,
its
government
entities,
collaborating
funding
and
creating
some
oversight
that
really
transcends
those
boundaries.
However,
there's
still
a
need
for
something
city,
specific
I'm,
not
sort
of
like
saying
this.
Instead
of
that,
it's
more
of
you
create
it
could
be
I'm.
Just
just
I'll
just
paint
a
picture.
I'm
not
saying
this
is
not
advocating
for
this
I'm.
Just
giving
you
a
scenario
of
saying
a
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
committee.
G
That's
on
par
with
other
committees
are
encode;
they
they
have
scope.
They
have
the
ability
to
influence
council
decision
making
goal-setting
all
those
things
just
on
par
with
all
of
our
committees.
That
would
be
more
sort
of
City
focused
around
our
own
internal
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
plan,
making
sure
our
departments
are
submitting
Dei
plans
that
are
specific
to
their
operations
and
using
that
body
to
help
review
those
plans,
making
sure
that
there's
accountability,
performance
metrics
things
like
that.
G
It's
also
that
this
group
can
also
help
us
determine
outreach
strategies
as
we're
engaging
on
big
projects,
making
sure
that
we
have
an
equity
lens
that
we're
applying
to
both
our
planning
efforts
as
well
as
deploying
infrastructure.
So
as
we're
developing
or
restructure
plans,
let's
making
sure
that
we're
thinking
through
those
things
again
through
an
equity
lens,
making
sure
our
committees
are
our
overall
governance
structure,
employees,
Dei
principals
as
we're
in
our
recruitment
and
selection
process,
both
externally
and
as
well
as
internally
kind
of
oversight
of
our
HR
functions.
G
G
I
hear
you
in
terms
of
I,
don't
want
to
be
sort
of
imposing
what
I
think
is
the
is
the
issue
and
I
want
to
hear
from
folks
about
what
the
what
the
issues
are
and,
let's,
let's
work
together
to
solve
it
through
the
right
governance
structure,
I'm
just
sort
of
giving
you
a
picture
of
what
this
might
look
like.
I.
L
We
need
this
group
to
be
above
and
beyond
that,
because
we
can't
wait
for
that
regional
structure
that
you
just
mentioned,
and
so
this
is
an
opportunity
in
my
mind's
eye,
as
a
community
member
here
for
the
city
of
ven,
to
be
a
leader
right
now
in
setting
up
that
structure
that
maybe
has
a
better
or
has
a
different
regional
structure
and
function
in
the
future,
but
there's
a
deep
gap
right
now.
That's
causing
harm
you.
G
Know
I
agree,
I,
think
that's.
Why
there's
this
dual
approach?
There
could
be
at
this
collective
impact
model
that
we
all
pool
our
funding
together,
get
the
staff
that's
needed
to
support
what
we're
talking
about
here,
but
at
the
same
time,
doing
something:
that's
very
city
specific
and
ensuring
some
accountability
within
the
services
that
we
provide.
That
was
but
I'm
open
to
ideas,
I'm,
just
trying
I'm
trying
to
sort
of
take
information
and
figure
out
a
strategy,
a
path
to
how
we
create
outcomes
that
everybody
is
intending
to
achieve.
D
D
So
again,
the
work
we're
doing
is
really
not,
for
you
is
for
those
that
you
don't
see
in
here.
So
I
really
would
like
us
to
focus
in
the
discussion
within
the
city
of
Bend
and
what
the
city
of
Bend
can
do.
I
absolutely
believe
that
we
are
region
and
that
we
need
to
work
regionally.
I
am
absolutely
sure
that
we
can
encourage
folks
to
move
and
create
a.
D
Our
representatives
right
and
we
I
think
we're
very
clear:
the
we're
recommending
that
the
Syrian
band
creates
infrastructure
for
a
body,
an
independent
body
that
gives
agency
to
marginalized
communities
to
exist
so
that
we
can
go
to
somewhere
speaking
justice
and
that
that
somewhere
will
see
us
and
hear
us
for
who
we
are
and
will
see
us
as
credible
and
valuable
right
and
unfortunately,
that
is
not
what
we
have
right
now.
So
just
thank
you.
J
Thanks
Joanne
I'm
wondering
if
there
might
be
a
way
for
us
to
take
this
recommendation
and
really
you
know
kind
of
respecting
it,
and
you
know
showing
that
it's
being
heard
and
set
up
a
set
up
a
commission.
You
know
call
it
a
commission,
because
we
hear
that
that
is
the
message
that
needs
to
be
sent
right
now
about
the
seriousness
and
the
power
of
this,
and
also
you
know,
give
you
clear
that
part
of
the
responsibility
of
that
Commission
at
the.
J
But
it's
that
it's
a
City
Commission
that
it's
you
know
and
if
on
partly
the
created
through
ordinance
created
through
the
powers
that
council
has,
you
know,
is
able
to
create
this.
But
and
sorry
if
I'm,
not
I
might
not
be
perfectly
clear
because
I'm
thinking
through
this
as
I'm
saying
it
I'm
trying
to
find
a
path
forward
here,
so
that
if
we
created
this
Cuttino,
say
we'll
see
a
city
of
been
Human,
Rights
Commission,
we
create
the
Commission
through
ordinance
and
in
the
ordinance.
J
K
From
a
from
a
legal
perspective,
that's
fairly
comparable
to
what
a
lot
of
other
cities
do
through
their
committees
or
commissions.
An
additional
component
of
that
that
you
know
could
I
think
fairly
easily
be
simply
be
included,
is
not
not
to
pick
on
the
hospital,
but
let's
say
a
hospital
somebody
somebody
says:
I
I
was
treated
this
way
at
a
hospital
and
and
that
person
goes
to
the
Commission
for
resources
even
fact-finding.
You
know
there
can
be
a
component
of
that
where
the
Commission
could
be
empowered
to
go
to.
K
You
know,
for
example,
a
hospital
and
say
here's
what
we're
hearing
do
you
want
to
engage
with
our
process?
You
know
it's
conciliatory.
It's
dispute
right,
it's
hard
to
say
that
it's
extending
jurisdiction
over
a
hospital,
but
it
provides
an
opportunity
for
somebody
to
get
hopefully
justice
and,
if
not,
help
in
taking
it
to
the
next
level.
So
there
are
other
committees
and
commissions
that
that
that
do
all
those
things.
B
Are
there
any
responses
or
reactions
from
Task
Force
members
to
kind
of
the
ideas
that
Jenna
and
Ian
have
put
out
there?
I
also
want
to
acknowledge
it.
We
have
a
lot
of
other
things.
Viewed
up,
we
can
review,
but
I
don't
want
to
push
past
this
conversation
point
and
cell
focuses.
You
know
said
everything
that
they
want
to
say
about
it.
For
now,.
C
Like
to
sort
of
ask
a
couple
questions,
thank
you
all
for
a
very
robust
conversation.
It
takes
a
lot
of
courage
to
listen,
and
it
also
takes
a
lot
of
courage
to
talk.
So
thank
you,
at
least
from
my
perspective,
to
everyone,
who's
sharing
so
far,
so
I'm
sort
of
trying
to
figure
out
where
we
are
to
set
aside
right
now,
the
naming
of
a
commissioner
or
a
committee.
It
sounds
like
you're.
C
You
would
like
this
task
force
to
be
a
little
clearer
than
we
have
been
in
what
we've
submitted
about
function,
authority,
scope,
and/or
task
to
take
a
stab
to
go
deeper
than
what
we
have
presented
so
far
in
order
to
help
define
what
this
would
to
give
it
more
definition.
Maybe
it's
a
better
way
to
say
that,
so
is
that
what
I'm
hearing
am
I
hearing
that
from
you
all,
either
from
the
city
or
from
the
council?.
K
I'm
I'm
trying
to
keep
trying
not
to
talk
too
much
but
I'll
try
to
answer
that.
Just
by
saying
at
some
point
those
questions
are
gonna
have
to
be
answered,
because
if
we
have
a
permanent
something
a
committee
or
Commission,
it's
going
to
be
in
the
city
code
at
some
point
and
its
powers
and
duties
will
have
to
be
outlined
so
whether
that
happens,
sort
of
sooner
through
recommendations
of
this
group
or
later,
when
codes
being
drafted,
III,
don't
know
those
questions
need
to
get
flushed
out
at
something
yeah.
J
I
feel
like
we've
been
given.
Oh
I,
think
we've
been
some
examples
and
their
recommendations,
and
it
doesn't
it's
not
a
lot
of
work
to
go
through
click
through
and
to
you
know,
say
Salem's
code,
as
I
just
did
before
the
meeting
to
look
at
what
it
says
and
so
I
think
it
might
be
more
of
if
there
are
more
specific
recommendations
or
things
you
like
or
don't
like
that
other
cities
are
doing.
J
Of
course
we
want
to
hear
those,
but
in
terms
of
just
giving
examples
you
know
I
think
we
we
have
specific
ideas,
it's
just
a
matter
of
if
there
are
ones
that
you
think
are
especially
important
as
a
task
force
which
you
have
we've.
Also.
We
have
heard
that,
with
the
you
know,
the
the
need
for
the
ability
to
hear
to
hear
Thanks
this.
F
May
I
say
something
in
response:
this
task
force
is
making
a
recommendation
and
has
tried
to
flush
out
what
its
views
are
and
what
such
a
commission
would
would
do.
But
clearly,
if
the
city
were
to
go
ahead
and
establish
a
commission,
we
would
have
to
do
a
lot
more
detailed
work,
perhaps
using
other
models
that
exist
to
outline
what
its
functions
and
purposes
are
and
how
it
would
operate.
There
is
also
a
function
of
budget.
F
We
have
a
statutory
umbrella
under
the
civil
rights
legislation
that
exists
both
at
the
state
level
and
at
the
federal
level.
Is
that
not
sufficient?
Does
that
not
give
us
enough
operational
room
to
establish
a
commission?
I
still
haven't
heard
a
clear
answer
as
to
whether
or
not
we
can
or
cannot
establish
a
commission
without
some
further
statutory
steps.
G
F
Not
we
made
clear
in
the
recommendations
that
we
don't
expect
to
function
as
a
court
and
we
are
not
seeking
judicial
authority
on
and
for
assessment
powers,
but
we
are
in
a
position
to
have
an
investigative
role,
as
certain
people
have
already
mentioned,
we
can
provide
support
to
those
who
might
want
to
pursue
legal
avenues
that
exist,
so
we're
not
seeking
I.
Don't
think
I
may
be
wrong,
but
others
here
in
the
committee
can
in
the
task
force,
can
speak
to
that
I.
F
Don't
think
we
recommended
that
we
want
to
establish
a
judicial
body,
it's
clear
that
we
would
play
an
advisory
role
and
it's
clear
that
we
want
also
to
have
some
ability
to
play
an
investigative
role
in
the
event
of
hate
crimes,
a
racial
discrimination
or
whatever,
where
those
who
are
affected
by
these
kinds
of
situations
have
a
local
body
that
they
can
go
to.
That
says,
help
me
and
say
help
me
and
the
Commission
says.
F
G
So
maybe
let
me
ask
the
question:
if
the
Sophie
you're
kind
of,
if
this
committee
is
offering
investigation,
investigative
services
and
it
finds
discrimination,
has
occurred,
what
authority
would
this
committee
have
and
then
taking
action?
What's
your
vision
of
what
authority
this
committee
would
have
or.
F
G
G
K
So
a
couple
different
ways
to
think
about
that:
one
when
I
think
about
an
investigative
function,
that's
that's
a
stand,
a
bowl
and
in
pretty
simple
and
something
that
the
council
could
in
you
within
a
commission
or
committee,
but
again
I.
This
is
occupational
hazard
of
being
a
lawyer,
I
asked
what
does
that
mean
and
if
somebody
says
well,
that
includes
something
like
subpoena
authority.
The
ability
to
compel
somebody
to
give
you
documents
or
emails
I
think
well.
That
gets
a
little
harder
and
I
haven't
heard
anybody
suggest
that.
K
But
but
that's
that's
why
the
details
are
important
now
to
Eric's
question
about
what
what
if
we
have
a
commission
that
is
investigating
complaints
trying
to
do
fact-finding
figure
out
what
happened
to
help
somebody
in
terms
of
what
weight
that
would
carry
at
the
next
level,
meaning
at
bully
or
in
front
of
a
judge?
That's
up
to
bully
and
and
the
judge.
But
if
you
have
a
commission
that
is
familiar
with
at
least
the
basics
of
anti-discrimination
law
and
the
basics
of
how
a
complaint
in
court
or
a
complaint
to
bully
would
work.
K
It
stands
to
reason
that
they
would
be
able
to
help
a
party
with
an
issue
get
sort
of
start
putting
the
pieces
together,
so
that
person
can
be
on
the
best
footing
possible
when
they
do
go
to
court
or
when
they
do
go
to
bully.
So
that's
a
role.
I
could
see
a
commission
playing
and
that's
a
role
that
and
that's
that's.
That's
ability
that
a
City
Council
could
create
in
a
commission
and
and
really
in
that
regard,
it's
more
of
an
assistance
role
to
a
party
that
needs
help.
K
You
know
it's
helping
them
start
pulling
pieces
together
to
get
them
prepared
to
go
to
the
same
place
that
our
current
code
says.
They
need
to
go,
there's
a
violation.
So
that's
what
this
task
force
is
envisioning.
You
know,
I,
think
that
is
within
a
scope
of
what
council
could
do
through
our
code.
That
would
establish
this
body
and,
and
part
of
that
would
be
outlining
what
it's
supposed
to
do
and
what
its
authority
is.
K
F
Right
if
I
may
I
just
point
out
that
a
lot
of
the
marginalized
communities
that
we
hope
to
serve
are
individuals
who
don't
have
the
resources
or
necessary
expertise
or
experience
to
even
do
the
initial
investigation.
And
that
is
an
impediment
to
seeking
any
redress
legally
and
I.
Think
having
such
a
commission
that
has
that
kind
of
capacity
to
help
makes
a
big
difference
and.
K
K
There
are
different
types
of
investigations
and
some
are
more
complex
than
others
and
to
do
the
best
investigation
you
can
you
need
Authority
that
compels
somebody
to
participate
in
your
investigation
that
that's
where
it
might
get
a
little
harder
with
a
city
created
Commission
but
establishing
at
least
at
the
outset,
within
their
scope
of
work
in
their
capacity
to
try
to
do
some
investments
to
help.
People
is
something
that
I
think
we
could
do
and.
I
M
Seventh
NDI
task
force
needs
and
priorities
summary,
so
looking
at
the
needs
that
the
task
force
and
priorities
that
the
task
force
set
out,
I
think
it's
a
question
for
clarification.
Is
one
of
the
topics
of
this
meeting
to
be
just
to
get
feedback
from
any
city
members
or
council
members
to
just
you
know
again.
M
Can
we
does
it
make
sense
to
go
point
by
point
and
say
well,
if
there's
agreement
or
needs,
they
need
clarification
from
the
task
force
on
the
things
that
we
outlined
and
or
do
they
see,
gaps
of
things
that
they
would
want
to
have
editor
I
mean?
Is
that
kind
of
part
of
where
we're
trying
to
move
to.
B
Always
speak
to
that
a
little
bit
just
for
your
reference.
The
excuse
me,
the
needs
and
priorities
that
we
sent
out
were
taken
from
the
materials
that
were
sent
to
the
stewardship
subcommittee,
so
everyone
on
that
committee
would
have
already
seen
this
information
as
well
as
folks
at
the
city,
but
what
I
think
if
to
kind
of
get
to
what
you're
talking
about?
B
Maybe
if
we
move
through
a
couple
more
slides
and
the
because
there
were
other
points
of
feedback
right
if
we
want
to
touch
on
those
well,
we
have
a
little
bit
of
time
left
here,
but
I
think
it
feels
like.
From
my
perspective,
the
conversation
that
y'all
are
having
is
really
fertile
in
terms
of
thinking
and
about
how
to
move
forward.
Are
there
anyone
opposed
to
hand
moving
on
to
the
next
bit
of
feedback,
or
do
we
want
to
stay
with
this
topic
for
a
longer
a
strong
feelings,
either
way?
Okay,.
B
Well
then,
we'll
go
ahead
and
go
to
the
next
slide,
which
of
course,
we
can
still
keep
talking
about
whatever
chunks
not
to
talk
about,
but
I
just
wanna
make
sure
that
we
get
a
chance
to
go
over
some
of
the
feedback
that
we
got
and
I
think
this
ties
to
the
point
we
were
discussing
before
I
know.
There
was
some
concerns
that
came
up
around
staff
capacity
depending
on
you
know
how
the
you
know.
Responsibilities
of
this
group
end
up
impacting
staff
right
I
think
there
were
questions
and.
A
B
I
put
my
hand
over
it.
I
do
that
occasionally
on
accident.
Thank
you.
I
was
just
speaking
to
you
that
there
were
some
concerns
about
just
being
aware
of
whatever
the
staff
capacity
or
staff
impact
would
be
on
the
body.
That's
created,
you
know
what
kind
of
needs
the
group
would
have
of
staff
and
just
to
make
sure
that
it
just
be
realistic
about
well
staff
can
handle
in
that.
In
that
way
and
I
think
we.
You
know.
Bruce
already
spoke
to
that.
B
The
question
around
gathering
more
data
spread
more
information
about
the
need,
as
it
relates
to
complaint
response,
but
otherwise
some
of
the
agains
gentle
feedback.
You
know
we
got
was
around,
and
maybe
Ian
can
speak
to
this
exciting
that
maybe
came
from
Mary,
but
is
that
on
a
couple-
and
it
was
a
the
ordinance
or
the
the
framing
at
the
end
of
the
day,
in
some
ways?
B
B
G
Aaron
I
think,
thanks
for
making
those
points.
I
think
that
that
was
sort
of
the
intent
of
maybe
this
collective
model
might
provide
us
with
more
resources
to
do
some
of
that
investigation
work
if
we're
all
if
we
all
pitch
in
and
we
could
get
the
proper
so
that
was
sort
of
some
of
the
thinking
behind
the
investigative
piece
again
not
sort
of.
B
D
Want
to
address
a
little
bit
of
the
concerns
with
funds.
I
think
that
it's
a
reality
that
we
have
been
impacted
by
climate
19,
however,
is
also
a
reality
that
marginalized
communities
are
historically
dis.
Desam
bested
on
and
so
part
of
our
recommendations
also
come
with.
A
change
of
culture
also
come
with
the
idea
that
equity
diversity
and
inclusion
that
caring
for
people
that
feel
vulnerable
in
this
community
is
not
extract.
It's
actually
the
very
minimum
we
need
to
do
and
it
needs
to
be
embedded
within
our
budget
in
the
city.
I.
E
B
One
thing
I
might
add,
and
if
it's
a
helpful
bit
of
perspective
or
information
is
that
so
in
my
role
at
OSU
Cascades,
we
obviously
have
got
something
called
a
biased
response
team
that
I
think
sort
of
in
some
ways
some
similar
functions
to
what
folks
are
talking
about,
and
just
one
thing
I
would
I
would
share
maybe
around
the
capacity
or
staff
impact
piece.
Is
that,
particularly
when
a
complaint
process
is
new,
where
people
are
not
very
familiar
with
it,
they
don't
get
as
many
complaints
I
mean.
B
I
can't
obviously
predict
how
many
complaints
would
come
through.
What,
if
something
like
this,
you
know
we're
stood
up,
but
I
could
see,
and
you
know
what
again
I
Jenna
was
talking
about
that
idea.
If
the
city
were
to
start
with
the
Commission
that
Commission
model
locally
and
then
maybe
it
kind
of
grows
beyond
that,
then
I
could
imagine
that
potentially,
that
timeline
could
align
with
the
cost
impacts
right
as
I
can
imagine,
there's
there
would
be
a
curve
to
that,
then
that
it
would
start
slow
and
pick
up
just
from
that
from
that
context.
B
B
Does
that
work
for
other
folks,
let
me
holler
if
you,
if
you
feel
differently-
and
we
can
certainly
spend
more
time
here-
that
we
will
have
another
meeting
of
course
again
and
about
a
week
in
half,
so
we'll
have
more
time
to
pick
up
some
of
these
things
as
well.
Well,
maybe
we
could
go
to
the
next
slide.
Then.
B
So
kind
of
again,
just
to
summarize,
you
know
what
we
want
to
do
with
these
recommendations
right,
you
know,
review
the
identified,
needs
and
priorities
to
make
sure
that
those
still
resonate
with
you
all
that
they're
still
accurate,
that
there's
not
something
missing
and
then
take
a
look
at
the
you
know:
kind
of
recommendation,
content
reflecting
on
the
feedback
that
they've
heard
and
discussed,
and
thinking
about
you
know
what.
Where
do
you
want
to
take
it
from
here?
What
are
their
changes
or
revisions?
How
do
you
want
to
structure
it?
I
want
it
to.
B
You
know
how
about
opportunities
both
taking
the
feedback
from
city
staff
and
council
members
as
well,
as
you
know
again
giving
space
for
you
know
all
that's
going
on
in
our
communities
right
now,
so
that
makes
sense
in
terms
of
kind
of
path
forward
for
the
next
a
little
bit
of
time.
We've
got
today,
so
we
could
go
to
the
next
slide.
I.
B
The
conversations
we
had
before
was
that
you
know
there's
a
desire,
there's
a
need
for
mechanism
to
ensure
that
the
voices
of
historically
marginalized
and
underrepresented
communities
are
included
in
all
aspects.
Subsidy,
decision-making,
right,
I,
remember,
folks,
talking
about
you
know
wanting
involvement,
not
just
after
something's
already
in
the
works,
but
in
the
planning
stage
in
school,
setting
right
kind
of
all
across
the
board.
B
I
heard
you
know
a
need
for
more
intentional
outreach
to
an
engagement
with
with
these
communities,
also
a
need
for
tools
and
resources
to
support
City,
Council
and
staff,
and
engaging
in
indie
work
de
I
work
in
a
meaningful
way.
I
need
to
be
taken
seriously
and
appropriately
supported
and
resourced
right
you
financially
on.
I
Aaron
I
have
a
question
about
the
first
bullet
I'm
intrigued
by
it,
but
I'm
not
exactly
sure
how
that
would
work.
I
mean
it
seems
more
I
want
to
say
proactive.
A
lot
of
the
other
things
are
almost
sort
of
responding,
I'm,
obviously
creating
a
creating
a
safe
place
for
people
to
go,
but
they're,
responding
or
help
me
understand
what
what
come
help
me
see
in
my
mind,
what
that
first
bullet
looks
like
I.
B
L
I
have
an
example
for
a
role
that
I
play
as
a
planning
Commissioner
for
the
the
city
of
Bend,
which
would
be
in
the
same
way
that
we're
moving
towards
having
joint
work
sessions,
where
it's
not
just.
For
example,
Planning
Commission,
that's
getting
information
from
from
city
staff
alone,
but
multiple
City
committees
and
commissions
together
that,
for
example,
having
representatives
from
this
Human
Rights
Commission
at
those
work
sessions
as
well,
where
we
are
all
receiving
information.
At
the
same
time.
L
B
Guess
I
could
just
say:
yeah
I
think
some
of
the
examples
that
came
up
were
things
like
you
know,
being
involved,
say
the
goals
so
really
at
the
beginning
of
a
process.
So
in
the
goal-setting
phase
in
the
you
know,
kind
of
evaluating
new
policy
or
things
that
are
being
you
know
proposed
reflecting
on
things
that
already
exist
and
giving
feedback
on
that.
You
know
I,
think
you
know
this
point
made
around
not
only
having
this
groups.
B
There
are
other
questions
or
comments
on
on
these
needs
things
that
the
task
force
feels
like
you
know,
should
be
included
in
there.
That
isn't
I
mean
certainly
keep
in
mind
that
the
the
full
document
that
you
got
you
know
is
will
be.
You
know,
there'll,
be
that
level
of
depth
and
what
goes
to
counsel,
so
we're
not
music
just
to
be
what's
on
the
slides
but
I'm
just
kind
of
curious.
If
there
are
other
things
that
folks,
with
what
I
had.
D
D
So
we
don't
have
to
ask
for
it
as
a
special
thing.
So
premier
also
added
some
feedback
to
sort
of
these
ideas
that
the
members
of
the
task
force
would
like
to
suggest
to
city
government
and
I
wanted
to
know.
It
is
okay,
if
I
put
them
in
the
shot
or
should
I
email
them.
What
would
be
the
best
step
to
have
a
discussion
on
how
we
incorporate
these
recommendations,
the
idea
being
that.
B
F
B
B
E
B
G
Don't
we,
when
we
do
our
council
vote,
it
might
just
be
what
framing
things
so
like
with
our
council
goals.
We
do
goals
and
then
we
do
strategies
and
then
actions
on
your
strategy.
Some
people
call
it
objectives,
but
it's
not
worth
it.
If
there's
a
better
way
that
you
want
to
frame
it.
That's
fine!
Okay,.
D
So
you
know
we
can
review
this
there
rather
a
little
long,
but
they
talk
about
these
cornerstone
principles
that
we
need
within
city
government,
so
that
city
cop
does
not
perpetuate
oppression
or
marginalized
communities.
So
we
talked
about
being
equity
right.
This
equity
work
as
an
organizational
wide
issue
where
senior
leaders
are
setting
these
raise
equity
as
priorities
in
each
department.
D
You
know
like
these
work
requires
acknowledging
where
we
have
done
injustice
right,
where
we
have
fallen
short
and
the
idea
is
to
to
change
the
culture
to
have
it,
be
okay,
to
reflect
and
acknowledge
when
we
have
made
mistakes
right,
because
that
is
really
how
we
gain
the
trust
of
the
community
right
good
intentions
and
saying
that
we
have
good
intentions
is
not
going
to
have
the
community
trusts
city,
government
or
any
other
institutions.
It
is
the
internal
internal
work
that
is
done
to
change
the
everyday
patterns
and
habits.
D
D
You
know
the
idea
is
not
only
that
we
seek
feedback
from
marginalized
communities,
but
the
marginalized
communities
are
part
of
decision-making
and
everyday
government's
in
all
its
wide
range
of
existence.
Right
so
we
talked
about
making
cultural
humility
where
marginalized
communities
are
understood
to
be
the
experts
in
their
live
experiences,
a
core
value
of
the
city
of
been
so
you
know
these
are
little
empty,
but
they
are
all
based
on
best
practices
for
equity,
work
and
I
would
like
to
submit
this
to
the
task
force
to
be
at
it
into
our
recommendations
and.
I
I'm
curious,
so
are
you?
Are
you
saying
that
we
haven't
done
any
of
that
or
need
to
do
it
over
again
or
something
like
that?
I
was
struck
at
least
and
again
I'll.
Let
you
decide,
but
it
looked
like
a
lot
of
the
things
on
that
were
things
that
I
feel
like
Eric
said
the
city
has
undertaken,
we
are
doing.
The
council
is,
is
doing
so
I'm
I'm
curious.
E
I
D
Yes,
thank
you,
our
mayor.
Thank
you
for
clarifying
that
this
is
a
draft
and
yes,
the
idea
it
is
to
merge
these
numsa
these
concepts
of
government
as
how
internally
the
city
operates
with
how
externally
the
city
engages
with
the
community
right
many
times
the
city
engages
through
committees
and
task
force
and
so
on,
and
what
these
work
is
looking
to
is
give
recommendations
that
encompasses
all
of
the
aspects
in
which
we,
as
community
members,
interact
with
the
city.
Yes,
some
of
these
ideas
are
part
of
the
conversation.
D
However,
as
community
members,
we
can
tell
that
they
are
still
not
embedded
as
part
of
the
culture,
and
you
know
the
impact
it's
it's
superficial,
still,
it's
very
superficial
still.
So
the
idea
of
having
these
recommendations
is
trying
to
give
more
weight
to
the
work
that
the
city
already
started,
doing
and
maybe
all
provide
some
feedback
or
were
to
realign
I.
B
Does
that
kind
of
answer
the
question
you're
asking
Bruce
sure
great
I
think
what
I'm?
What
I'm
here
to
take
away
I'm
hearing
the
custom
Attica
Lee,
is
that
you
can't
mess
that
it's
hard
to
separate
the
kind
of
external
from
the
internal
and
that
the
task
force
members
have
an
interest
in
giving
feedback
on
on
that
internal
piece
as
well.
Yes,.
G
B
B
D
Can
think
of
four
connects?
Maybe
you
think
I
would
like
to
hear
from
ends
regarding
some
structure
that
we
can
utilize
to
have
my
rights
and
equity
permission
I
think
that,
if
presence
actually
would
have
been
valuable
at
the
beginning
of
our
meetings,
so
that
we
had
a
better
sense
of
how
to
wrap
our
heads
around
these
legal
constructs
right.
So
I
feel
like
we're
playing
catch-up
a
little
bit
on
that
sense.
Unfortunately,
so
like
stay
somewhere
clear
sort
of,
like
framing
of
you,
know
their
options
for
our
permission
and
the
steps
for
that.
D
K
Just
I
can
speak
to
that
really
I.
Think
councillor,
Goodman
Campbell
commented
earlier
that
we
we
do
have.
We
have
models
from
other
other
snoring
and
frankly,
do
all
or
at
least
a
lot
of
what
we
have.
What
this
group
has
talked
about
today
and
talked
about
previously
so
yeah
we
can.
We
can
do
that.
We
have
codes
that
exist
that
we
could
and
likely
would
borrow
from
because
you're
a
city
attorney.
You
learn,
they
steal
from
each
other
I'm.
So
we
wouldn't
reinventing
the
wheel
in
terms
of
it.
K
Council
ends
up
going
forward
and
the
sort
of
something
similar
to
what
this
group
has
discussed.
Today.
We
do
have
models
out
that
we
can
pull
from,
but
if
it
would
be
helpful
for
a
future
meeting,
we
can
pull.
Something
would
like
to
look
at
detail
to
sort
of
see
what
they
actually
do,
but
they
definitely
exist
or.
D
K
F
L
What
was
linked
and
our
meeting
materials?
It
only
took
me
a
couple
of
clicks
of
a
mouse
once
I
was
on
each
of
those
city
sites
to
drill
down
into
whatever
the
code
was.
So.
If
members
of
the
committee
would
like
that
queued
up,
then
I
think
that's
reasonable,
but
if
not
again,
just
a
couple
of
clicks
and
I
was
able
to
find
it
or
even
a
Google
search
that
just
said,
city
of
Salem
Human,
Rights
Commission.
It
took
me
to
the
to
the
code
as
well
right.
E
What
nice
response
was
good
I
did
not
click
to
those,
and
if
it's
that
simple,
that
I
could
go
and
do
that,
I
would
happily
do
that.
Rather
than
asking
for
more
I
guess.
One
of
my
questions
was
you
know
if
you
felt
like
there
was
something
that
would
be
fairly
adaptable,
that
you
were
already
aware
of
that
might
be
useful
for
us
to
look
at.
You
had
a
sense
of
what
might
really
work
the
city
and
I.
K
I
would
a
Beaverton's
code,
city
of
Beaverton
and
city
of
Eugene
have
codes
and
commissions
that
I
think
are
pretty
close
to
what
this
group
started.
Talking
about
the
meeting
went
on
of
kind
of
our
local
Oregon
examples.
The
city
of
Salem's
is
a
little
bit
different
I,
don't
know
that
I'd
call
it
an
outlier,
but
it
contains
some
features
that
the
other
cities
codes
do
not
in
that
it
includes
eventually
a
process
of
referral
to
an
issue
to
their
City
Attorney's
Office
for
possible
prosecution
in
salem's,
Municipal
Court.
So
that's
a
feature.
B
J
In
the
council
perspective,
what
kind
of
glean
from
that
conversation
was
that
we
can
call
it
a
commission
if
we
want
to
that
it
might
not
perform
the
same
legal?
We
might
not
have
the
same
kind
of
legal
weight
as
the
Planning
Commission
or
other
Commission's
that
the
city
you
know
as
in
place,
but
that
if
council
feels
that
it's
important
to
call
it
a
commission,
we
can
do
so
without
any
state
statute.
B
Thanks
for
clarifying
that
Janet
I
think
that's
helpful,
so
for
the
next
meeting
you
know
obviously
there's
a
lot.
You
know,
perspectives
that
came
up
to
consider
today
do
folks
feel
prepared
or
I
guess.
What
else
would
folks
need
to
feel
prepared
to
really
dive
in
next
time
to
try
and
really
kind
of
make
any
revisions
and
finalizing
the
recommendations
that
you
all
would
like
to
submit.
F
B
Yeah
that
was
really
just
meant
as
a
just
a
way,
a
different
way
of
framing
it
for
conversation,
but
I
think
it's
definitely
not
something
that
you
all
have
to
adhere
to
by
any
means.
It
was
just
to
kind
of
think
about
different
ways
of
kind
of
categorizing.
The
content
that
you
all
had
shared
before,
but
yeah
absolutely
I,
think
you're
free
to
approach
it.
However,
you
like
or
my
understanding
anyway
folks,
can
correct
me
if
that's
wrong.
F
L
Yeah
I
guess
for
me,
since
we
have
one
more
meeting
scheduled
it's
helpful,
it
would
be
helpful
for
me
to
start
imagining
how
this
really
rich
dialogue
gets
distilled
down
into
a
recommendation
to
council
and
knowing
that
it
needs
to
be
sufficiently
specific,
but
also
broad
enough
to
capture
everything.
So
that's,
that's
mainly
what
I
would
be
looking
for
in
our
next
meeting
is
getting
getting
closer
to
what
that
that
format
of
my
recommendation
looks
like.
B
B
G
Yeah
I
mean
the
it
would
be
this
same
group.
That's
on
the
call
today,
I
think
that
that
going
back
to
what
Joanne
was
saying
earlier
in
terms
of
making
sure
that
we're
all
synched
up
I
think
it's
good
to
have
us
that
we're
seeing
the
same
thing
and
because
sometimes
even
just
words,
they
matter
a
lot,
and
so
the
more
I
think
it's
more
efficient.
G
If
we
can
talk
through
that
and
that
way
when
it
goes
to
the
full
council
when
it's
recommendation
goes
to
subcommittee
or
then
the
whole
council
that
they're
you
know,
staff
looks
to
Council
to
make
sure
that
you
know
the
they're
sort
of
questions.
The
frame
the
framing
of
it
is
appropriate
to
the
extent
that
we
can
be
involved,
and
we
want
those
these
recommendations
to
be
yours,
I
mean
that's
the
intent,
but
what
we
also
want
to
make
sure
they
work
with
us
within
the
structure
so
that
they
can
be
heard
properly.
B
I
B
M
Just
I
guess,
following
up
with
what
Eric
just
said:
I
just
I
guess:
I
feel
like
this
converse
today
we're
looking
at
those
strategies
and,
as
he
said,
are
we
going
to
hear
more
sort
of
feedback
or
questions
from
staff
or
council
to
make
sure
because
I
I
see
the
value
in
us
getting
feedback
or,
if
there's
questions
for
clarification
on
what
we've
proposed
so
that
it's
not
gonna
just
get
kind
of
stuck
in
committee,
because
there
there
was.
That
lack.
M
G
Yes,
to
clarify
from
a
staff
perspective,
it's
really
council's
role
to
decide
from
the
policy
we're
just
wanting
to
make
sure
that
if
there's
resource
needs
attached
to
this,
that
we
understand
what
the
what
the
recommendations
might
need
in
terms
of
staffing,
etc,
that
the
that
it's
legal
within
a
legal
context
that
we
can
help
to
explain.
Council
as
we
looked
at
these
options
and
I
think
we've
made
some
progress
today
to
understand
kind
of
the
intent
and
then
what's
the
right
governance
structure
to
help
support
that
intent.
G
It's
those
types
of
things,
but
really
this
is
the
council's
decision,
not
a
facility
staff
decision
on
on
those
recommendations.
The
council
liaison
so
I
think
that's
why
both
Bruce
and
Jenna
are
here.
They
can
help
share
kind
of
their
perspective
with
the
whole
council.
But
ultimately
is
the
council
that
makes
that
decision
on
how
to
proceed
and
move
forward.
A
Yeah
and
I
think
this
is
Shelly
I.
Think
part
of
the
resource
that
we
could
provide
is
to
help
answer
some
of
those
questions
around
the
structure
and
the
policy
and
and
then
the
the
recommendations
coming
from
this
group
from
your
task
force
would
be
easily
easier
for
the
council
to
understand
in
the
in
the
framework
of
the
city.
So
I
think
it's
really
helpful
to
have
those
questions
and
ask
them
now,
with
with
the
staff
on
on
the
call.
F
This
discussion
that
we
had
today
involved
members
of
the
task
force,
members
of
the
city
staff
and
members
of
the
council
and
I
think
it's
been
very
useful,
and
the
next
meeting
is
supposed
to
include
the
same
people
but
I
wonder
whether
it's
anyone
else
in
the
task
force
shares
this
view
that
we
need
to
sort
of
pull
together.
What
our
final
proposal
to
the
city
is
all
to
the
council
rather
I.
F
D
I
would
like
to
echo
MERIS
point
of
the
task
force
needing
a
little
regrouping,
because
it
looks
like
we
need
to
look
at
the
recommendations
again.
I
think
that
we
want
to
add
an
amendment
of
recommendations,
specifically
speaking
to
the
culture
that
everyday
culture
the
city
governments
has,
but
so
removing
these
initiatives
like
it
feels
like
when
we
use
those
words.
We
take
power
away
from
the
intention.
We
first
put
into
these
words,
so
I
think
those
two
things
doing
things
meaning
I
had
many.
D
Experiences
that
mainly
realize
what
are
those
barriers
for
community
members
to
participate
from
the
power
dynamics,
such
as
the
access
of
information
I,
have
looked
at
different
cities
and
their
human
rights.
But
if
I
don't
know
to
look
for
the
college-specific,
that
information
escape
me
and
so
these
little
things
that,
for
some
folks,
are
used
to
this
type
of
engaging,
maybe
a
little
familiar
a
little
easier,
I'm,
not
necessarily
second
nature
to
somebody
that
doesn't
do
that.
Work
more
frequently
right.
D
So
I
do
need
time
to
read
some
of
what
the
code
are
because
I
don't
know
that.
I
look
specifically
at
that
within
my
research,
but
also
because
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
meant
our
recommendations
where
we
again
add
these
piece
about
the
culture
we
would
like
to
see
in
everyday
governance,
but
also
removing.
D
Messages
like
initiatives
or
ideas,
things
that
take
away
from
the
recommendation
is
not
an
initiative,
is
really
a
recommendation.
This
is
what
we
would
like
to
be
seen
is
not
how
about
this
see.
Those
two
things
are
very
different,
so
I
think
we
as
a
task
force,
need
a
little
tiny
to
regroup,
Joanne.
I
D
The
wording
that's
being
used
to
call
our
recommendations.
Initiatives
were
mayor,
brought
it
to
our
attention
that
some
of
the
language
in
the
document
that
the
city
reviewed
has
altered.
The
intent
of
our
words
and
simple
words
like
calling
a
recommendation
and
initiative
water
down
the
weight
of
what
we're
trying
to
convey.
So
we
want
to
be
able
to
look
at
that
set
of
bullet
points
and
make
sure
that
we're
comfortable
with
the
wording
of
our
ideas,
as
well
as
being
able
to
add
these
piece
of
everyday
cultural
governance.
To
see
that.
G
G
Again,
work
we're
not
here
to
direct
your
work
and
you
can
that's
fine
I
think
what
we
want
to
do.
We
don't
want
to
do
is
repeat
from
the
past
of
having
it
yeah.
One
of
the
things
that
we
can
legally
is
have
a
recommendation
without
having
public
meetings.
If
there's
a
group,
that's
meeting
to
have
a
recommendation
to
council,
there's
no
legal
way
to
do
that
without
staff
legal-
and
you
know,
ideally
what
the
council
liaison.
G
So
anything
that's
afforded
to
council
for
a
recommend
for
a
formal,
reck'n'd
recommendation
needs
to
be
publicly
noticed
meetings.
So
we're
not
here
so
that
you
have
free
change
words
and
just
your
body
of
work
that
we're
trying
to
do
at
all.
But
those
just
need
to
be
publicly
noticed
meetings
and
as
part
of
that
staff
needs
to
be.
F
Look
I
I,
withdraw
my
I,
don't
win
so
I
withdraw
my
suggestion
that
we
need
another
meeting,
I'm
happy
to
work
with
him.
More
small
I
just
want
to
be
clear
as
to
whether
we're
working
to
present
when
we
meet
like
this.
If
we're
going
to
accept
a
document
that
goai
it's
fine,
that
it's
done
publicly,
but
if
we
are
going
to
make
a
recommendation,
it
has
to
be
the
taskforce
recommendations.
Am
I
right
so
the
next
meeting.
G
F
F
G
I
think
I
would
I
guess
my
preference
is
that
you
take
the
time.
Do
the
work?
Well,
don't
rush
anything.
So
if
we
need
to
push
this
back
a
little
bit
in
terms
of
how
council
season
and
Jenna
and
Bruce
can
chime
in
I
think
that's
fine,
there
is
we
want
to.
We
want
to
move
forward
and
not
stall
or
anything,
but
I
also
don't
want
it's
that
balance.
We
don't
want
to
unnecessarily
rush
things
so.
D
Yeah
and
I,
don't
think
the
idea
is
to
push
things
back
is
just
to
have
more
time
together
right
so
that
we
can
look
at
the
code
from
other
cities
side
by
side.
Will
we
with
what
we
have
presented
and
make
sure
that
if
there
is
space
for
us
to
beef,
that
up
that,
we
do
so
right
same
thing?
If
there's
any
words
like
strategies
that
make
us
uncomfortable
that
we
remove
those
and
that
we
add,
you
know
some
sort
of
everyday
recommendations
for
the
everyday
activity.
D
B
Yeah
I
think
I
mix,
autosense
I'm
hearing
right,
just
we
wanna
be
able
to
take
you
wanna
be
able
take
the
time
it
takes
to
do
what
you
need
to
do
and
I
think
absolutely
it
just
like
was
today
right.
You
know
we
got
through
the
part
of
the
parts
of
the
agenda.
We
could
because
there
needed
to
be
more
conversation.
So
I.
Imagine
that's
that's
fine
for
the
next
meeting
as
well.
J
Want
to
say
thank
you
to
all
the
tasks.
Look.
Various
I
know
that
this
is
really
is
that
you've
worked
really
hard
on
this,
and
that
this
can
be
really
taxing
work
and
so
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
for
working
through
this
with
us
and
helping
helping
counsel,
hopefully
find
a
good
path
forward
here.
Thank
you.
F
F
D
G
Yeah
really
impressed
with
with
everybody's
candidness
and
willingness
to
speak
up
for
what's
right
and
I
really
want
to
be
partners
in
helping
to
move
forward
and
create
something
that
we
just
I,
think
I'm
a
huge
opportunity
and
Ben
right
now
to
forward
and
I
want
to
be
part
of
it.
So
thank
you
for
helping
to
get
us
going.
I.
A
Think
with
that
Joanne,
if
you
have
any
ideas
on
how
we
can
increase
participation,
whether
it's
technology
or
different
mechanisms,
to
help
with
that,
will
you
please
let
me
know
from
a
city
standpoint
if
we
need
to
make
if
we
can
make
space
available
or
that's
clean
and
safe,
you
know
we
were
happy
to
do
that,
but
if
there's
anything
I
could
do
to
help.
Please
let
me
know
on
that
note:
would
it
be
okay
if
I
go
ahead
and
adjourn
this
meeting
at
4:16
on
July
is
a
tenth.
