A
K
A
You,
commissioner,
bergquist,
I
have
a
question
to
the
city.
Is
there
anything
we
can
do
to
help
commissioner
burke
west
be
able
to
open
the
link.
L
Vice
chair
devenish,
this
is
kayla,
commissioner
burquist
is.
Are
you
getting
some
sort
of
error
message
or.
E
K
M
This
is
a
commissioner
shoemaker.
I
had
the
same
problem
when
from
the
link
in
the
email.
However,
when
I
opened
it
up
in
limbs,
the
links
worked.
L
Yeah,
but
I
and
I
see
that
commissioner
should
make
you
put
this
in
the
chat,
and
I
did
too
the
link
the
direct
link.
I
just
opened
it
and
it
worked.
I'm
hoping
that
that
link
would
work.
K
L
A
Commissioner
berkus,
would
you
like
to
take
a
few
minutes
to
review
the
minutes
from
the
meeting.
K
No,
I
think
I'm
good
I've
had
a
chance
to
skim.
Thank
you.
C
N
O
G
H
I
B
O
P
There
about
that,
I
was
having
some
trouble
turning
my
camera
on
hi
everybody,
I'm
andrew
hawkins,
I'm
the
chief
of
staff
for
the
minneapolis
department
of
civil
rights.
Currently,
my
staff
are
responsible
for
outreach
on
behalf
of
the
department
when
I'm
at
a
conflict
tonight,
so
I
was
happy
to
step
in
and
pinch
hit
here.
So
I'm
going
to
share
my
screen.
P
I
have
just
a
short
presentation
to
go
through
some
of
the
outreach
avenues
that
we're
using
during
the
current
appointment
cycle.
What
the
applicant
process
looks
like
it's,
a
continuation
of
something
that
we
actually
started
piloting
at
the
end
of
2020
with
one
of
our
groups
and
then
kind
of
take
any
questions
getting
the
input
from
all
of
you
in
terms
of
things
that
you'd
like
to
see
or
what
might
be
helpful.
P
As
you
know,
as
far
as
you
know,
being
able
to
recruit
the
you
know,
the
best
possible
applicant
pool
that
we
can
for
some
of
your
vacancies.
So
if
there's
nothing
else,
I
will
share
my
screen
here
and
we'll
get
going.
P
For
the
double
check,
so
so,
as
far
as
our
current
planned
outreach
efforts
to
potential
applicants,
it's
a
number
of
methods.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
reach
the
widest
range
possible.
We
have
messaging
through
our
social
media
accounts
from
the
department
of
civil
rights.
We've
got
multiple
mailing
lists
through
our
club
delivery
sites.
We
also
have
the
city
website
that
work
currently
in
the
process
of
rolling
stuff
out,
so
that
people
have
access
to
the
information
from
as
wide
an
array
of
possible
sources.
P
Beyond
that,
we
have
outreach
materials
that
are
being
sent
to
the
mayor
and
council
offices
this
week,
so
that
they
can
share
those
with
their
constituents.
We
are
working
with
the
city,
communications
and
human
resources
department
on
expanding
audiences
for
potential
messaging.
Obviously,
hr
and
comps
both
have
you
know
somewhat
different.
I
think
different
and
more
broad.
You
know
scopes
of
of
outreach
areas
identified
than
we
do
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
using
everything
that
we
possibly
can.
P
We
also
want
to
make
sure
that
we
provide
outreach
materials
to
you,
so
you
are
all
able
to
share
them
through
your
own
personal
networks
and
then
beyond
that,
it's
identifying
potential
areas
for
expanded,
outreach
efforts
and
scope
kind
of
one
of
the
reasons
to
focus
on
this
is
you
know
we
wanted?
We
do
want
to
have
like
the
equity
and
geographic
diversity
lens
as
well.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
the
city
as
a
whole
is
represented.
P
You
know,
to
the
greatest
extent
possible
right
now,
based
on
the
applicants
that
we
currently
have
and
the
consistency
of
the
existing
commission.
I
believe
we
have
unrepresented
wards
in
ward,
one
two,
six
eight
and
nine,
and
then
we
have
underrepresentation
meaning
just
we
currently
have
one
member
from
words,
four
and
ward
seven.
P
So
those
are
areas
where
I
think
we'd
want
to
consider
some
expanded
efforts
to
make
sure
that
we're
rounding
out
populations
from
those
areas
so
that
we
can
have
some
members
on
your
commission
from
those
groups
from
those
groups
continuing
to
expand
the
scope
of
outreach
materials.
This
is
something
just
I
think
kind
of
coming
out
of
covet
here
and,
with
the
you
know,
understanding
that
we're
going
to
be
back
sort
of
out
together
again
we're.
P
This
is
something
that
we're
looking
at,
I
think
more
broadly
as
a
department,
but
it
also
applies
to
you
and
that's
just
making
sure
that
outreach
materials
exist
in
a
variety
of
formats,
and
so
that
can
be
anything
from
a
brochure
to
a
you
know.
One
sheet:
you
know
one
page
where
it's
you
know
a
little
more
text
heavy.
P
This
is
something
that
we
have
been
working
on
for
your
group
again
hasn't
gone
out
yet
so,
if
anybody's
got
any
issues,
I'm
you
know
definitely
more
than
happy
to
have
the
discussion,
but
I
think
that,
knowing
that
people
absorb
materials
in
a
variety
of
ways,
it's
important
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we're
like
doing
things
in
a
variety
of
different.
You
know
methods
to
make
sure
that
we're
kind
of
capturing
everybody
that
we
possibly
can
that
might
have
interest
in
this
group.
P
Currently
our
timeline
for
both
applications
and
interviews
friday
march
18th.
So
this
previous
friday,
the
application
period
opened
it
will,
by
april
8th,
we
want
to
have
the
first
round
of
candidates
interviewed
and
potential
candidates
identified
when
we
piloted
this
before
we
did
the
same
thing.
Knowing
that
we're
on
kind
of
abbreviated
schedules,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
you're
not
going
to
run
into
any
issues
with
quorum,
and
you
know
that
you're
we
can
get
you.
You
know
at
least,
that
initial
batch
of
people
I'm
going
to
give
you
that
buffer.
P
We
want
to
do
that
as
soon
as
possible.
I
believe
the
application
period
runs
through
april
15th,
so
anybody
kind
of
coming
in
on
a
back
end
will
be
identified
for
the
second
round
of
interviews.
So
again
april.
8Th
first
round
of
candidates
are
interviewed
and
identified
wednesday
april
20th.
That
would
be
when
a
public
hearing
is
set
at
the
public
health
and
safety
meeting
wednesday
may
4th
is
when
the
public
hearing
will
be
held.
P
I
believe
the
last
cycle-
I
don't
know
I
can't
remember
if
we
did
for
mccr
or
not,
but
like
generally,
that
would
be
one
where
they
would
ask
that
any
potential
people
coming
forward
can
just
participate
remotely
in
case
there's
questions
or
anything
from
any
of
the
members
of
that
commission,
especially
with
a
lot
of
new
members
from
you
know.
On
the
city
council,
it's
that's,
probably
one
that
I
would
flag
wednesday
may
4th.
P
The
public
hearing's
held
like
in
the
candidates
are
moved
forward
unless
there's
any
objections
or
delays,
and
then
thursday
may
12th
city
council
meetings
held
and
that
recommendation
from
the
public
health
and
safety
committee
will
be
moved
forward.
Monday
may
16th
is
your
first
meeting
so
again
the
timelines
on
this
work
out
fairly.
Well,
I
think
that
if
we
get
things
through
on
the
12th,
we
would
be
able
to
get
them
or
sorry.
P
On
the
fourth
from
our
home
committee,
the
public
health
and
safety
we'd
be
able
to
get
it
through
the
city
council
on
the
12th.
If,
for
some
reason
that
got
delayed,
it
would
push
it
back,
but
that's
something
I
think
we're
going
to
try
as
hard
as
we
can
to
make
this
timeline
work,
because
the
timing
works
out
well
so
monday
may
16th
would
be
the
minneapolis
commission
on
civil
rights
meeting.
P
We
would
onboard
new
members,
do
the
swearing-in
hopefully
prior
to
the
meeting,
and
then
we
would
conduct
the
annual
training
at
that
regularly
scheduled
meeting.
It's
always
good
to
do
that
in
public
meetings,
when
we
can,
since
it
provides
an
opportunity
for
members
of
the
public
to
kind
of
see
what
the
you
know
what
the
training
entails.
What's
being
expected,
you
know
what
some
questions
are
and
yeah
I
mean
any
opportunities
for
transparency
are
always
worth
considering.
P
So,
moving
on
the
interview
and
appointment
process,
as
I
kind
of
opened
up
with
in
the
fall
of
2020,
the
civil
rights
department
began
piloting
a
new
commission
appointment
process.
One
of
the
reasons
was
just
simply,
you
know
we
were
maybe
a
postpandect
and
post.
You
know
murder
of
george
floyd.
We
had
there
there's
a
lot
going
on
a
lot
of
demand
on
our
and
some
of
our
staff.
P
We
had
some
areas
where
people
had
left
and
positions
were
frozen
so,
like
I
actually
stepped
in
with,
like
with
staff
and
having
worked
on
our
hr
side
for
a
while.
There
were
some
areas
where
I
wanted
to
see
if
we
could
standardize
this,
and
so
you
know
for
this
one.
We
worked
with
some
of
our
equity
staff
in
the
city,
as
well
as
just
kind
of
hearing
from
a
variety
of
people.
P
Council
included
in
what
were
some
of
the
areas
of
concern
and
the
areas
identified
for
increased
focus
for
racial
equity,
geographic
diversity
perspective
and
fit
the
purpose
of
the
commission.
Another
goal
was
to
provide
a
consistent
process
for
applicants
to
interview
panelists
and
staff.
Civil
rights
has
well
one
panel,
one
committee
and
two
commissions.
P
It's
a
lot
for
a
small
department,
but
still
just
the
even
the
experience
kind
of
across
all
of
those
is
very
different
and
so
you're
trying
to
center
that-
and
you
know,
keep
things
as
consistent
as
we
can
so
that
people
know
what
to
expect.
I
think
it's
it's
something
that
we
need
to
strive
to
do.
P
Another
goal
was
expanding
opportunities
from
remote
participation
from
applicants,
elected
officials
or
their
staff.
You
know
obviously
pandemic
being
what
it
was.
I
think
one
of
the
things
you
know
that
we've
kind
of
gained
has
been
this
remote
participation
option,
which
it
makes
it
a
lot
easier
for
people
to
participate.
P
You
know
when
they
otherwise
might
not
be
able
to.
If
there's
an
interview
during
the
day,
and
you
have
to
come
to
city
hall,
that's
a
lot
more
of
a
demand
than
if
you
can
just
hop
on
the
computer
and
conduct
your
interview
that
way
other
benefits
from
this.
It
was
an
increased
transparency
and
familiarity
with
the
processes.
Again,
the
ease
of
access
one
helps
increase
representation
both
in
applicants
but
also
in
interview
panels.
P
You
know,
council
schedules
are
busy,
merrell
staff
are
busy,
but
at
the
same
time
like
making
this
as
easy
as
possible,
it
did
definitely
increase
the
participation
we
got
from
that
side,
which
I
think
was
very
valuable.
It's
also
a
chance
for
applicants
to
engage
with
elected
representatives
early
in
the
process.
This
is
something
that
I
think
is
incredibly
important.
P
We've
actually
had
people
follow
up
with
us
and
people
that
you
know
that
they
really
liked
in
interviews
that
got
put
on
the
commission
to
see
how
they're
doing-
and
you
know
we'll,
if
there's
any
applicants
that
are
going
to
be
interviewed
from
a
specific,
a
specific
war,
we'll
always
make
sure
that,
like
the
war
group,
representation
is
notified
and
so
that
they
can
participate,
but
that
was
definitely
a
change.
That
was
certainly
for
the
positive.
A
I
I
do
see,
commissioner
lord,
and
I
do
see
commissioner
burke
quest
both
with
your
hands
up.
Commissioner,
lord,
could
you
please
go
ahead.
Please.
P
Oh
no
I'll
I'll
share
this
all
with
you
as
well,
but
there
there's
there's
that
one.
If
anybody
and
yeah
I
mean,
if
there's
specific
materials,
that
you
know
anybody
has
any
input
on
or
questions,
I'm
happy
to
hear
it,
but
then
this
and
I
should
clarify
too.
This
is
something
that
you
had
mocked
up.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
all
everyone's
happy
with
it
before.
O
Sure,
because
you're
you
were
proposing
that
some
version
of
this
this
be
disseminated
correct
of
slide
three,
this
yeah,
okay
yeah.
I
I
I
just
wanted
to
provide
a
recommendation
that
maybe
in
the
the
headline
you
put
the
now
accepting
applica
applications
and
try
to
make
it
as
large
or
integrated
with
the
headline
a
little
bit
just
because
I
glossed
right
over
that
and
I
was
like.
Are
they
even
asking
me
to
do
anything
that
might
be
helpful?
So
just
a
suggestion
to
make
sure
you
know.
P
P
Yeah
but
that's
absolutely
appreciated,
and
then
the
other
thing
too
is
we're
kind
of
you
know
as
we're
getting
back
into
more
of
the
face-to-face
like
the
need
for
printed
materials.
So
that's
something
where
I
think,
for
you
know:
if
we
do
things
like
this
or
a
smaller
like
a
little,
you
know
almost
like
pamphlet
size.
I
think
we
want
to
engage
one
of
the
things
we
would
probably
implement
in
that
situation
is
the
qr
codes
so
that
people
can
just
scan
it
with
their
phones.
Take
them
right
there.
Let
them!
You
know.
P
K
Thanks,
I
have
a
few
questions
and
I'll
just
kind
of
pose
them
all
at
once,
and
then
let
you
handle
them
andrew.
So,
first
in
terms
of
a
couple
of
timeline
questions.
First,
on
the
going
back
to
2021
it
was
the
police
conduct,
oversight.
Commission.
That
was
the
sort
of
trial
commission
for
this.
Is
that
right
and
understandably,
a
lot
of
interest
on
the
part
of
the
city
council
and
the
mayor's
office
for
particularly
for
the
police
conduct
oversight?
Commission,
so
I'm
I'm.
K
You
know
I'm
glad
to
hear
that
they
were
involved
in
the
vetting
process.
The
interview
process-
and
all
of
that
can
you
tell
me,
is
because
we
had
around.
We
were
soliciting
applications.
I
think
the
first
deadline
was
october,
1st
2021.
It
might
have
been
a
little
bit
earlier
sometime
around
there
at
what
point
was
it
decided
that
this
was
that
that,
while
the
pilot
was
going
on
for
pcoc
that
the
department
wasn't
going
to
do
anything
for
the
the
civil
rights
commission
like
when
did
that
decision
get
made?
K
Because
you
know
we,
we
were
not
informed
that
we
were
getting
put
on
hold
and,
of
course
we
had
seats
expire
as
of
the
end
of
2021
and
fortunately
we're
not
in
a
situation
anymore,
where
we
have
a
quorum
established
under
the
ordinance.
So
we
we
have
a
little
bit
of
wiggle
room,
but
when
did
that
decision
get
made
to
not
only
pilot
with
the
pcoc
but
to
put
our
commission
on
hold?
That's
that's
my
first
question.
My
second
question
is
looking
moving
forward.
K
When
is
the
department
going
to
get
its
proposed
slate
of
commissioners
to
the
public
health
and
safety
committee
for
their
consideration?
You
said
when
when
the
committee
was
going
to
be
scheduled,
but
when,
when
is
the
department
handing
over
its
list
so
that
that
list
would
be
public,
so
we
can
all
take
a
look
at
that
and
see
who's
recommended.
K
Then.
Another
question
I
have
is
with
respect
to
the
interviews.
Will
current
members
of
the
commission
be
involved
in
the
interview
process?
I
know
that
that
had
been
a
practice
in
the
past.
Is
that
going
to
be
happening
going
forward,
and
so
that
would
be
interesting
for
all
of
us
to
hear
whether
the
commission
itself
will
have
a
say
in
terms
of
what
the
department's
recommendations
will
be
to
the
city
council
and
to
the
mayor
and
then
finally
another
question.
I
think
you
said
your
position
as
chief
of
staff.
K
Is
that
a
new
position,
or
is
that
just
a
position
I
haven't
heard
of
before?
Or
did
you
replace
somebody
who
was
already
chief
of
staff,
and
we
just?
I
just
wasn't
familiar
with
that-
that
title,
I'm
just
just
just
kind
of
curious
about
what
that,
when
that
position
came
to
be
thanks,.
P
Absolutely
here
I'm
double
checking
my
dates
as
well,
so
I
can
answer
one
of
your
first
questions,
which
was
the
rca
amount
that
I'd
taken.
The
rca
is
due
the
monday
prior,
like
the
monday
the
week
prior
to
the
meeting.
P
So
if
the
I
believe
the
way
the
timing
works
out,
that
is
when
everything
would
be
submitted
and
I'm
happy
to
send
that
out,
I'm
as
soon
as
I
can
find
it
here,
but
I
might
have
taken
it
off
my
initial
thing
here,
just
in
the
interest
of
getting
everything
to
fit,
but
here
one
second,
I
believed
so
so
I
I
believe
april
11th
would
be
the
the
initial
rca
for
round
one
in
the
past.
P
We've
split
this
up
into
two
different
rounds,
the
reason
being
that
we
know
we
have
people
that
have
reapplied.
We
want
to
get
them
through
the
process
as
soon
as
possible,
as
well
as
a
lot
of
the
applicants
we
get,
we
they
do
come
in
on
the
front
end
of
this
process.
So
hopefully
we
have
a
good
amount
of
people.
We
can
go
through
everything.
Do
the
initial
screening
start
the
process,
and
then
we
can
also
do
the
the
subsequent
round
two
from
the
pcoc.
I
think
we
did
believe
it
was.
P
It
was
probably.
I
think
it
was
close
to
50
50
in
terms
of
the
appointments
between
round
one
around
two
to
fill
all
of
the
vacancies
for
for
that
group.
So
there
is
a
split,
but
it
also
just
it
makes
it
a
little
bit
more
manageable.
I
know
that
this
is
something
that
got
you
know
drawn
out
due
to
the
request
that
we
stay
in
the
identified
windows
for
the
appointment
process,
so
we
want
to
respect.
You
know,
respect
that
we're
also
respecting
that
you
know
this
is
something
that's
been.
P
You
know
been
like
ongoing
for
for
a
while,
and
people
would
like
to
get
that
stuff
squared
away.
So
my
position,
I've
been
with
the
department
for
five
years,
so
it's
I
mean
I
didn't
think
it
is
new.
I
don't
know
that
it
existed
prior.
I
also
managed
the
office
of
administration
and
policy.
We've
got
a
couple,
a
couple
staff
with
us.
We
basically
run
the
administrative
side
of
the
department.
P
That
was
something
that
hadn't
like
had
kind
of
been
decentralized
in
civil
rights
and
was
pulling
from
a
lot
of
different
places.
So
the
previous
director
felt
that
it
was
like
something
to
consider.
You
know
like
pulling
it.
You
know
pulling
into
one
one
spot
similar
to
everybody
every
I
think
every
other
department
in
the
city
but
yeah,
so
it's
so
yeah
not
ongoing,
but
if
we
never
met,
it's
just
wonderful
to
meet
you,
commissioner.
At
the
same
time,
let's
see
here
one
other
question.
P
I
know
there
were
quite
a
few
of
them
when
the
decision
was
made.
Kayla
can
remind
me,
but
obviously,
during
that
you
know,
we've
had
a
fair
bit
of
turnover.
We've
had
a
number
of
you
know
interim
directors
for
a
while.
So
then
that
was
certainly
during
that
period.
P
I
think
that
after
we
had
piloted
it,
it
worked
fairly.
Well,
I
talked
to
talked
to
kayla
about
implementing
this.
I
know
during
that
time
she
was
kind
of
in
the
midst
of
all
of
her
resources
getting
poured
into
staffing
up
her
own
group,
so
that
they'd
have
you
know
the
capacity
to
continue
their
investigations,
and
you
know
none
of
that
be
impacted.
P
So
I
don't
know
how
well
stuff
was
communicated,
I'm
sure
something
that
could
have
been
done
better
and
it
was
simply
due
down
to
limitations
on
resources
and
that
you
know
a
lot
of
the
other
resources
we
would
normally
tap
into
in
the
city
were
like
spread
pretty
thin
with
you
know
the
election
and
just
everything
that
was
going
on
it
was
it's
certainly
a
challenging
time.
So
I
apologize
to
anybody
that
wasn't
able
to
you
know
like
like
it
might
get
the
communication
that
they
that
they
had
hoped
for.
P
K
Sure,
yeah,
okay,
just
so
in
terms
of
the
time
frame,
it
sounds
like
it
wasn't
decided
in
october,
when
we
were
still
accepting
applications
and
encouraging
people
to
apply
it
might
have
been
decided
late
november
early
december.
That
was
when
it
was
decided.
Is
that,
like,
is
that
an
approximate
time
frame.
P
I
think
it
was.
It
was
probably
decided,
prior
with
the
assumption
that
we'd
be
able
to
you
know
it
would
be
we'd,
be
able
to
do
everything
in
in
the
window
that
we
wanted.
However,
you
know
just
I
think
you
know
limitations
on
resources
put.
You
know
like
a
strain
on
that
and
then
I
think,
once
the
council
had
turned
over.
I
think
you
know
as
much
as
it
did.
It
seemed
like
it
would.
It
was
something
where
you
know.
P
The
plan
that
I
had
proposed
to
kayla
was
that
we
wait
until
the
new
council
was
seated
everybody's
you
know
was
sworn
in.
They
had
you
know
they
had
their
committee
assignments
and
that
way
we
could
involve
them.
Since
I
think
you
know,
anytime,
you
have
a
turnover
of
more
than
50
percent.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
involve
that
group
to
the
greatest
extent
possible,
since
they
work
quite
a
bit
with
you.
So.
K
K
Just
seems
sort
of
odd
that
we
were
continuing
to
be
encouraging
people
to
apply
the
deadline
was
being
extended.
We
were
being
led
to
believe
that
people
were
going
to
be
interviewed
and
a
new
slate
of
commissioners
was
going
to
be
proposed
to
start
at
the
beginning
of
the
year
has,
as
has
always
been
the
practice,
and
it
doesn't
sound
like
there
was
actually
a
decision.
It
was
just
sort
of
a
sort
of
lack
of
action
on
the
part
of
the
department.
That
said,
okay,
well
we're
this
far.
K
P
I
think
lack
of
capacity
and
lack
of
action
are
different
things.
You
know
again
with
the
resources
that
we
had
during
the
period
that
we
were
going
through.
You
know
I
think
some
decisions
needed
to
be
made
about
what
needs
to
be
done
with
the
department.
We
can
keep
it
running
administratively,
we
can
keep
doing
investigations
or
we
can
pull
every
resource.
We
have
off
and
do
commission
appointments,
I
mean
or
we
it
takes
the
same
volume
of
resources
from
our
site
to
get
people
hired
in
the
first
place.
P
So
you
know
again
it's
one
of
those
where,
like
I
certainly
will
you
know,
apologize
to
anybody
for
any
frustrations
with
communications.
I
think
that
was
something
that
you
know
that
wasn't
done
in
the
banner
that
we
normally
would
have
done
it,
but
at
the
same
time
it's
it
was
one
of
those
where
sometimes
you
know
like
the
only
thing
you
can
say
is
like
we
were
doing
the
best
we
could
with
the
you
know
at
the
time,
so
yeah.
K
So
so,
for
the
I
understand
there
were
like
seven
people
who
had
applied
last
year.
Has
there
been
any
part
effort
on
the
part
of
the
department
to
reach
out
to
them
to
say,
we've
received
your
application,
we're
still
in
the
process
of
scheduling
interviews.
Has
there
been
any
communication
to
any
of
those
applicants,
because
I
was
one
of
those
applicants
and
I
haven't
received
any
communication,
but
I.
K
Okay,
I
did
not.
I
mean
I
received
this
sort
of
automatic
notification
at
the
time,
but
I
haven't
you
know,
obviously,
because
for
people
who
aren't
attending
civil
rights
commission
meetings
in
their
spare
time
as
far
as
they
know
they
applied
and
the
seats
were
to
be
filled
as
of
january
1st-
or
you
know,
as
of
january
2022,
and
they
never
heard
anything,
and
so
they
you
know
they
may
know
nothing
and
that
could
be
insulting
for
people
who
went
to
the
trouble
to
fill
out.
K
You
know
a
not
simple
application
form,
and
all
of
that
so
has
anyone
been
notified,
and
if
not,
can
the
department
fix
that
and
do
they
need
to
reapply?
We
were
told
at
our
last
meeting
that
they
don't
need
to
reapply,
which
would
be
good,
but
they
should
also
be
told
what
the
situation
is
because
otherwise
I
don't
think
it's
fair
to
the
commissioners
who
did
a
lot
of
work,
trying
to
recruit
people
to
encourage
people
to
apply
and
for
the
people
who
did
apply.
A
L
Can't,
commissioner
berquist,
we
did
communicate
to
all
the
folks
that
applied
to
let
them
know
that
we
were
holding
off
until
this
next
cycle.
We
did
not
reach
out
to
the
returning
commissioners
because
you've
been
at
these
meetings
and
gotten
the
updates,
so
our
apologies
on
that
that
wasn't
an
intent
to
leave
anyone
out.
It
was
just
thinking
that
we
needed
to
get
the
information
out
to
the
folks
that
weren't
regularly
attending
meetings
like
you
noted,
but,
as
I
said
last
time,
that
still
stands.
L
P
Yup
and
that's
what
I
think
I
talked
to
kayla
and
it
sounds
like
that
was
something
that
was
already
expressed
to
commissioners.
So
with
that
being
the
case,
I
don't
have
any
ambitions
to
deviate
from.
You
know
what
had
already
been
discussed
with
everybody,
so
I
believe
that
they
will
be
involved
in
some
capacity.
A
Mr
hawkins,
we
have
some
comments
in
the
chat.
Commissioner.
Signotti
says
that
you
could
check
pro
bono
directors
of
law
firms
in
town.
Commissioner
signotti,
would
you
like
to
speak
to
that?
Please,
I
do
see
your
hand
is
raised.
I
I
I
would
thank
you,
so
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
are
we
are
we.
What
is
our
deficit?
Is
it
non-attorneys
or
president.
P
We
have,
I
believe,
and
kayla
will
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
here,
but
I
believe
there
are
two
vacancies
that
are
like
I
mean
when
I
say
vacancies.
I
mean
seats
that
have
been
vacated
that
are
attorneys
and
there
is
there's
one
open
attorney
seat,
that
is,
commissioner,
quick
seat
and
she's,
obviously
reapplied
and
returning.
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
I
differentiated
those
two
okay.
I
So
one
of
the
things
that
I
don't
see
an
awful
lot
of
outreach,
you
know
to
the
you
know:
we
have
a
number
of
larger
law
firms
in
tone
and
and
quite
confident,
smaller
ones
as
well.
I
don't
need
to
differentiate
on
size,
but
they're
always
looking
for
pro
bono
opportunities.
I
find
this
is
a
useful
and
a
helpful
pro
bono.
Opportunity
is
for
my
for
my
work
and
you
know
what
I
think
that.
I
To
the
degree
that
that
this
outreach
has
done
to
the
hennepin
card,
hampton
county
bar
association-
or
you
know
any
any
other
members
of
the
downtown
minneapolis
attorney
community
would
probably
get
you
more
than
you
probably
need
so
and
then
the.
C
I
A
Thank
you,
commissioner.
Sigdoni
also,
we
have
in
the
chat
commissioner
shumake.
When
is
the
second
round
of
interviews.
Was
that
question
answered
for
you
and
I
do
see
your
hand
is
raised.
M
M
L
M
L
Speak,
I
can
speak
to
this
one
if
that's
helpful,
so
commissioner
staniani
is
not
in
an
attorney
seat
right
now,
but
has
submitted
an
application
to
get
him
moved
into
an
attorney
seat.
So
that'll
be
a
part
of
this
appointment
cycle.
A
A
Some
examples
include
northside
cub
foods,
neon
north
point
and
wellness
colleges,
which
includes
mctc
hennepin
county
has
over
9
000
employees,
and
they
have
different
people
of
color,
employee
resource
groups
and
to
point
to
mr
stagnati's
point
of
having
access
to
the
border
association
and
also
to
other
lawyers
who
are
interested
in
working
pro
bono,
also
in
ward
4,
there's
the
shiloh
temple
and
mother's
love.
A
I
think
a
lot
of
times.
We
have
great
opportunities,
but
sometimes
the
communication
is
not
reached
to
the
masses
where
it
needs
to
be
reached,
so
maybe
developing
a
point
person
to
communicate
with
these
agencies
to
help
recruit
number
one
more
people
of
color
and
just
more
community
members
in
general.
A
Also,
commissioner
davis
put
in
the
chat,
I
was
wanting
to
reapply
a
mess
deadline.
When
was
that
opportunity
open
up-
and
I
did
see
kayla
respond
to
that
in
the
chat.
But
just
to
talk
to
commissioner
davis
did
that
response
to
the
chat
satisfy
your
question.
A
Yes,
mr
hawkins,
do
you
think
a
member
from
the
civil
rights
department
will
be
reaching
out
to
some
of
these
organizations
that
I
mentioned
in
the
chat.
P
I
think
you
know
when
things
get
again
when
resources
are
tight
and
things
are
busy
and
you're.
You
know
it
just
seems
like
you're.
Just
trying
to
get
you
know
like
the
core
functions
done.
Communication
is
one
of
the
things
that
can
you
know
that
tends
to
go
first,
you
know
like
having
you
know
like
been
able
to
expand,
expand
staff
and
bring
back
some
of
these.
You
know
positions
that
have
been
you
know
frozen
for
a
while.
P
This
is
actually
one
of
the
areas
that
we're
being
the
most
intentional
about
building
out,
since
I
know
how
important
it
is
and
just
based
on
the
comments
tonight,
you
know,
I
think
that
that's
reinforced
by
the
group,
where
that's
something
that
everybody
wants
to
see
so
yep.
I
can
absolutely
share
these
with
our
staff
and
make
sure
that
we
reach
out
and
share
some
materials
on
the
appointment
process
and
the
application
process
and
make
sure
that
we
get
everybody
to
the
right
place.
A
M
Know
right
after
I
posted
this,
I
realized
that
there
are
many
employees
in
the
department,
including
kayla,
who
worked
in
the
human
rights
program,
so
I
think
you'll
probably
have
a
good
good
connection.
If
there's
any
support,
I
can
provide
I'm
here
for
it,
but
I
think
you
might
be
good
on
that
front.
A
A
Thank
you,
mr
hawkins.
Thank
you.
Everyone
for
participating
in
giving
great
feedback.
Are
there
any
additional
questions
or
comments
to
mr
hawkins
ideas
and
next
steps.
A
I
Commissioner
devinish,
if
you
don't
mind
I'll,
give
an
intro
to
for
ellison.
Yes,
please,
sir,
so
allison
is
one
of
works
at
the
same
law
firm.
I
work
at
she's,
one
of
our
bright.
You
know
brightest
associates
in
coming
into
this
year's.
This
year's
group
of
attorneys
and
she
has
graciously
agreed
to
put
together
a
civil
rights
update
for
us
for
about
10
minutes
worth
of
work.
Any
questions
you
have.
I
This
is
kind
of
a
first-time
test
group,
so
anything
you'd
like
to
see
more
of
or
less
of
we'll
take
that
away
and
we'll
do
this,
but
we
hope
that
allison
will
will
grace
us
with.
You
know
one
with
an
update
every
so
often
here,
probably
once
a
quarter
so.
R
Thank
you
good
evening.
Everybody,
it's
nice
to
meet
you
all.
So,
as
commissioner
signing
said,
I
my
name
is
allison
cole.
I
am
an
associate
at
a
law
firm
in
town
and
part
of
the
civil
rights
update
that
we
thought
would
be
important
is
a
summary
of
the
ongoing
civil
rights
litigation
going
on
in
town
there.
R
Since
december
31st,
there
have
been
five
civil
lawsuits
filed
against
the
minneapolis
police
department
and
the
city
that
all
actually
vary
in
facts
and
situations,
but
all
equally
important
just
at
it
at
a
macro
level,
they
one
case
involves
a
immigrant
family
of
hmong
descent
and
another
involves
a.
R
I
saw
a
question
in
the
chat.
Yes,
we
can
provide
support
and
contact
information
after
excuse
me,
sorry,
so
one
provide
one
case
involves
among
american
family.
One
case
involves
a
african-american
man
who
was
arrested.
One
case
involves
a
woman
who
was
at
the
ferry
precinct,
demonstrating
after
the
murder
of
george
floyd
and
was
significantly
injured.
So
I'm
going
to
take
you
through
kind
of
the
facts
of
each
of
these
cases.
R
The
counts
against
the
city
and
the
police
department
are
all
very
similar
and
all
have
similar
named
defendants.
The
first
case
is
the
young
family
versus
the
city
of
minneapolis.
The
young
family
was
among
american
descent,
the
victim
one,
the
entire
family
really
was
a
victim
in
this
case,
but
the
father
fathering
family
was
shot
multiple
times
by
multiple
police
officers
in
his
home.
His
four
children
were
detained
while
they
were
confronting
him
with
with
a
mental
health
emergency
and
situation.
R
Mr
yong,
unfortunately
passed
away
from
his
injuries
within
the
confrontation
and
his
four
children
were
detained
with
minneapolis
police
because
they
were
witnesses
to
the
event.
One
of
the
children
involved
is
a
minor,
and
the
facts
of
this
case
are
really
long
and
dense
and
they
kind
of
bounce
around
so
but
the
gist
of
it
is
the
entire
family
was
detained.
They
weren't
told
why
they
were
being
detained.
R
They
weren't,
given
updates
about
what
was
going
on
part
of
it
was
that
there
was
confidential
information,
but
it's
a
pretty
upsetting
situation,
and
I
think
there
was
it
was
there's
in
the
in
the
complaint
itself.
You
can
see
how
each
and
every
single
family
member
has
a
claim
against
the
city
beyond
just
the
deceased.
The
second
case
is
holmes
v
city
minneapolis.
R
In
this
case
there
was
a
man
who
was
68
years
old
at
the
time
of
the
incident.
He
was
babysitting
for
his
grandson.
The
family,
the
his
grandson
and
his
grandson
had
some
the
family
that
the
parents
of
the
grandson
had
a
history
of
domestic
violence
issues
and
he
was
keeping
custody
of
the
son
of
his
grandson
for
the
night.
The
son's
mother
had
an
issue
with
this,
and
the
minneapolis
police
came
to
the
home
and
being
a
protective
grandfather.
R
He
would
not
allow
the
police
to
take
his
grandson
without
giving
a
reason,
because
he
felt
his
grandson
would
be
in
danger.
If
he
left
with
the
police
and
went
with
his
mother,
the
police
said
we
will.
We
will
have
to
arrest
you
for
not
complying
with
orders,
and
he
said
arrest
me.
He
was
then
slammed
on
the
ground
and
since
then,
and
sustained
a
decent,
a
decently,
severe
shoulder
injury
and
has
had
complications
with
that
shoulder
injury
since
then.
So
that
was
another
case
as
well.
R
The
next
case
is
alexander
v:
city
minneapolis,
the
kate.
The
facts
of
this
case
are
a
bit
more
vague
in
the
complaint,
but
a
man's
pull.
Mr
alexander
was
pulled
over
in
a
rental
car
with
a
passenger
with
him,
and
he
and
his
passenger
were
stopping
by
multiple
minneapolis
police
officers.
With
guns
drawn,
they
were
removed
from
the
vehicle,
they
were
searched,
they
were
seized
and
they
were
placed
in
the
back
of
squad
cars.
The
police
then
proceeded
to
search
the
vehicle.
R
R
The
next
case-
and
I
am
almost
done-
is
buck
bunkhold,
the
city
of
minneapolis,
so
ms
bungholt
was
a
protester
and
demonstrator
and
photographer
outside
of
the
third
precinct.
After
the
murder
of
george
floyd,
she
was
injured
by
a
shot
of
a
less
lethal
round,
a
40,
millimeter
rubber
bullet
and
she
was
shot
on
the
back
of
the
head
subsequently
after
she
was
shot
with
the
less
lethal
round.
R
She
started
seizing
at
the
demonstration
and
was
brought
by
others
that
were
there
to
safety
and
received
medical
attention
among
other
things,
but
she
has
filed
a
complaint
for
the
complications
she's
sustained
since
then,
while
she
was
documenting
what
was
going
on
outside
of
the
third
precinct
during
the
day.
The
last
case,
I'll
summarize,
for
you,
is
jacksonville
city
minneapolis.
R
Mr
jackson
was
in
a
parking
lot
with
another
individual
who
had
mr
stallings,
mr
song,
said,
fired
a
shot
at
a
vehicle
that
was
an
unmarked
police
car.
Those
shots
were
fired
in
self-defense
and
mr
jackson
was
approached
by
the
police
and
he
and
in
the
complaint
he
says
he
was
beaten
for
two
minutes
with
and
fired
at
with
a
taser
for
a
full
two
minutes
which
he
claims
was
a
use
of
excessive
force
in
violation
of
his
civil
rights.
R
There
are
multiple
civil
claims
in
his
complaint,
but
that
is
the
like
the
his
civil
rights
claim
in
his
complaint.
Those
are
the
five
cases
that
have
been
filed
since
december
31st.
They
are
all
in
the
federal
court.
I
can
provide
any
other
additional
information,
as
many
of
you
know
complain
lot.
Complaints
can
be
very
technical
and
technical
in
the
facts
of
the
case
and
the
stories
that
that
these
plaintiffs
have
to
tell
so.
R
I
am
happy
to
provide
a
written
report
afterwards
and
fill
in
any
blanks
or
provide
complaints
to
anyone
who
is
interested
in
reading
more.
A
H
Yes
thanks,
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
that
report.
I've
been
asking
for
this
for
a
while.
H
I
think
that
we
need
to
have
reports
like
this
every
meeting
so
that
we
have
a
better
scope
and
perspective
of
what's
going
on
in
civil
rights
litigation
in
our
city
and
that
we
have
a
better
sense
of
the
kinds
of
travesties
of
justice
that
our
residents
have
to
experience,
particularly
when
they're
interfacing
with
you
know,
city
city
employees,
and
I
think
that
that
helps
us
to
function
better
as
a
civil
rights
commission
when
we
are
made
aware
and
kept
abreast
of
what
we
claim
to
to
represent
and
to
advocate
for
so
please.
H
You
know.
Please
continue
that,
and
I
want
to
thank
commissioner
stagnati
for
for
this
invaluable
resource.
R
I
also
would
like
to
just
point
out
quickly
before
commissioner
cignani
makes
a
comment
is
that
the
plaintiffs
in
these
cases
are
all
of
all
different
descents
ages,
various
other
things.
So
I
think
that
is
important
for
the
commission
to
know
that
these
narratives
happen
to
all
different
people,
and
I
think
that
that's
a
really
important
thing
to
highlight
that
it
is
not
just
one
subject
of
our
community.
It's
all
different
types
of
people
within
our
communities,
and
I
think
that's
really
important
to
continue
to
highlight.
I
Thank
you,
and
so
thank
you,
commissioner
ranz
we
will,
you
know,
do
our
best
we'd
like
to
hear
all
any
commentary.
You
have.
You
know
written
formats
summaries
for
ahead
of
time,
but
this
is
just
kind
of
a
first
trial
and,
depending
on
on
this
cole's
willingness
to
do
so,
we
we
can
certainly
step
it
up.
Amir
lock's
litigation
will
probably
happen
by
the
time
our
next
meeting
comes
through.
So
maybe
we
can,
you
know,
focus
on
the
selected
ones.
I
A
R
I
think
right
now,
if
I
can
get
a
clear
picture
of
what
specifically,
if
there's
a
specific
type
of
case
that
is
particularly
concerning
to
the
commission.
I
want
to
be
able
to
be
a
clear
and
useful
resource.
It's
easy
to
say
these
are
the
last
five
cases
that
have
been
that
have
been
filed.
I
should
also
note
that
all
of
these
cases
were
filed
in
the
federal
and
in
the
district
of
minnesota
in
federal
court,
not
necessarily
state
court.
R
Some
of
them
were
removed
to
federal
court,
which
I,
which
I
think
is
actually
also
really
important
to
note
so
as
of
now,
I
can't
think
of
anything
more
that
would
be
in
deep,
but
I
will
absolutely
be
in
contact
and
in
communication
regarding
what
more
you
can
do
to
support
my
my
summaries
here
as
far
as
like,
what's
most
important
as
far
as
information
is
concerned,
would
really
be
right
now.
What
I
would
would
find
most
helpful
in
that
I
want
to
do.
I
want
to
provide
information.
A
H
Yes,
allison.
One
of
the
things
I
was
going
to
say
is
that
we
do
review
a
lot
of
cases
when
it
comes
to
employment
discrimination,
and
so,
if
we
were
able
to
keep
some
of
this
local
or
if,
if
there
were
cases
pertaining
to
some
of
the
corporations
or
employers
here
in
the
city
of
minneapolis,
that
would
be
very
helpful,
particularly
with
certain
court
rulings
and
decisions.
H
These
biases
and
discrimination
or
wrongful
termination
so
on
and
so
forth.
I
think
that'd
be
very
helpful
for
us
to
have
a
better
sense,
with
some
of
the
big
and
and
small
employers
here
and
once
again
to
have
a
better
understanding
of
the
of
of
of
the
culture
and
the
you
know
the
vibe
that
is
out
there
pertaining
to
you
know
civil
rights,
and
I
think
it
helps
us
to
garner
more
of
a
perspective
to
be
able
to.
You
know
to
serve
the
city
better.
R
So
just
for
clarification,
you
would
like
both
public
sector
and
private
sector
employment
discrimination
cases,
but
all
within
minneapolis,
proper.
H
Yeah,
because
that's
the
that's
the
lion's
share
of
the
types
of
cases
that
we
end
up
reviewing
and
so
sometimes
not
making
rulings
in
a
vacuum,
but
also
you
know
seeing
how
some
of
these
corporations
are
functioning,
because
at
some
point,
if
we
continue
to
see
a
pattern
of
of
bad
behavior,
then
it's
an
opportunity
for
the
commission
to
then
put
some
pressure
on
the
city
of
minneapolis
when
it
comes
to
contracting
with
these
employers
right
to
time.
Out.
H
For
that,
and
so
this
report
would
kind
of
help
us
have
a
a
sense
of
some
of
the
some
of
the
the
trends
and
things
that
are
taking
place
in
our
fair
city.
A
M
Cole,
thank
you
so
much
for
your
time.
This
is
really
really
valuable.
I
think
I'm
not
alone
in
saying
I
would
absolutely
love
to
read
any
report
you
have
to
write
or
anything
you've
written
would
be
very
just
really
informative.
M
Another
thing-
and
this
is
what
commissioner
rants
was
talking
about,
but
a
part
of
our
duty
as
commissioners
is
to
review,
contested
discrimination
cases,
and
so
we
struggle
often
as
lay
people
I
think
like,
and
also
as
attorneys
like,
in
really
establishing
just
the
just
the
the
burden
of
proof
of
discrimination
and
maybe,
if
in
the
future,
if
you
wanted
to
come
and
bring
us
kind
of
present
a
case
to
us
and
explain
how
we
really
need
to
just
demonstrate
that
there's
like
really
a
protected
class
and
all
of
the
things
that
need
to
be
met
in
order
for
discrimination
to
be
demonstrated
so
yeah.
A
Q
Sure
thank
you,
chair
devenish,
I'd
just
like
to
clarify
that.
I
appreciate
ms
cole's
presentation,
but
in
terms
of
providing
legal
advice
regarding
the
standards
that
applying
contested
case
hearings,
that's
not
information
she's
able
to
provide
if
she's,
not
counsel
to
the
commission
and
I'm
sure,
miss
cole
would
be
happy
to
confirm
that.
R
I
Thank
you.
This
is
directed
towards
attorney
nate
is,
is
the
city
attorney
going
to
provide
updates
on
a
on
a
regular
basis
for
any
changes
in
case
law.
Q
Commissioner
sagnati,
thank
you
for
your
question.
I
didn't
interpret
ms
cole's
presentation
to
actually
be
an
update
on
case
law.
I
understood
it
to
be
an
a
summary
of
allegations
about
recently
filed
cases
which
certainly
are
available
to
the
public,
but
don't
provide
any
presidential
value
in
terms
of
what
the
actual
law
is.
So
the
city
attorney's
office
is
always
happy
to
provide
case
law.
That's
established
law,
but
summaries
of
of
allegations.
Q
While
they
may
be
of
interest
to
the
commission
from
a
a
standpoint
of
what's
being
alleged
in
the
community,
they
don't
they're,
not
legal
advice.
So
that's
not
something
we
would
provide
now.
I
Q
Commissioner
zignani
thank
you
for
the
question.
I'd
be
happy
to
provide
answers
to
questions
as
they
are
posed
by
the
commission
or,
as
they
relate
to
specific
cases
that
come
before
the
commission.
Our
office
has
never
just
provided
general
case
law
updates.
I
certainly
don't
object
to
his
goal,
providing
summaries
of
existing
case
law.
I
So
noted
that
that's
you
know
she's
not
here
for
that
reason,
but
I
just
was
curious
that
you
know
we
could
find
you
know
good
closure
on
where
we,
where,
where
the
line
is
thank
you.
Q
Yeah,
commissioner
stignani-
I
I
just
don't
understand
miss
cole's
presentation
here
to
be
actually
a
presentation
of
case
law,
but
rather
a
summary
of
recent
allegations
against
city,
which
is
quite
a
different
thing.
If
I
misunderstood
what
she
said,
I
do
apologize.
That's
not
my
intention,
but
I
heard
a
summary
of
of
allegations
and
complaints,
which
is
something
quite
different.
K
Yeah
I
just
wanted
to
follow
up
on
commissioner
stagnante's
point
since
we're
not
receiving,
and
in
my
term
on
the
commission,
we've
never
received
an
update
from
the
city
attorney's
office
of
evolving
case
law
in
the
eighth
circuit
or
within
the
state
of
minnesota
or
at
the
supreme
court
level.
I
think
it
would
be
extremely
valuable
to
the
commission
to
have
the
opportunity
to
receive
updates
on
presidential
case
law
and
if
it's
not
coming
from
the
city
attorney's
office,
even
though
it's
not
it
wouldn't
be
legal
advice,
it
would
be
informative.
K
Just
like
you
can
get.
You
know
for
people
in
private
practice.
Get
you
know
briefs
sent
out
about.
You
know
where
the
circuit
splits
are
et
cetera,
et
cetera.
That's
not
legal
advice,
either
it's
informative
and
it
would
help
us
do
our
jobs
better
if
we're
hearing
contested
cases,
so
I
think
that
would
be
extremely
valuable
if
we
can
make
that
happen.
A
Q
Chair
definition,
I
I'm
not
sure
I
understand
your
question
regarding
when
you
say.
Is
that
something
that
the
department
is
able
to
do?
Could
you.
A
Clarify
yes,
ma'am
and
I
do
apologize.
I
was
not
clear.
I
apologize
so
I'm
wondering.
Can
the
department
provide
case
law
updates
from
the
county
attorney's
office
that
is
informative.
Q
Chair
davidish,
certainly
we
can
provide
case
law
to
the
commission
and
we'll
be
happy
to
do
so
as
it's
needed.
The
the
I
don't
believe
the
department
has
ever
provided
case
law
updates.
Simply
as
a
matter
of
course.
I
I'm
not.
H
Q
I
think
this
is
the
discussion
that
perhaps
we
should
also
have
offline
about
what
makes
sense
from
a
time
and
a
presentation
perspective.
Certainly
I'm
always
happy
to
provide
legal
resources.
I
don't
know
that
a
presentation
is
a
most
efficient
way
to
do
it,
but
certainly
I'd
be
happy
to
have
an
offline
discussion
about
what
that
might
look
like.
L
No,
that's
okay.
I
was
gonna
echo
the
same
thing
and
just
voice
that
as
of
right
now,
the
department
like
the
civil
rights
department
would
not
have
the
capacity
to
do
that
that
regular
updates.
We
unfortunately
only
have
three
investigators
and
quite
a
few
cases
to
investigate
so
that
that
wouldn't
be
possible
for
us
at
this
point,
but
happy
to
engage
in
an
offline
discussion
about
what
could
be
could
be
possible.
L
A
Commissioner
bergquist,
I
do
see
your
hand
is
raised.
Man.
K
That
sounds
like
it
would
be
a
good
solution,
and
you
know,
if
that's
not
a
solution,
I'm
interested
in
like
what
are
the
issues.
Then,
if
you
know
like
what
what's
the
problem
with
that
happening,
as
I
said
like
there's
the
law
of
360,
you
know
the
all
those
sort
of
paid
providers
that
provide
not
legal
advice
but
provide
information
about
here's,
the
changing,
here's,
a
change
in
the
law
and
that's
publicly
available,
and
why
couldn't
a
law
firm,
compile
that
and
present
it
to
us?.
Q
This
is
andrea
enough
speaking,
I
think
the
question
is
probably
directed
to
me
so
I'll
attempt
to
address
that.
Commissioner
bergquist.
Thank
you
for
the
question
to
the
extent
that
it's
providing
just
simply
summaries
of
case
law
on
an
informational
basis.
I
would
not
have
an
concern
with
that.
I
think
it
does
become
a
problem
when
it
appears
to
be
legal
advice
when
it's
being
applied
to
specific
facts
before
the
commission
and
so
forth,
but
just
purely
informational
case
summaries
would
not
be
a
problem.
In
my
opinion,.
A
A
And
miss
call:
do
you
mind
putting
some
contact
information
so,
since
this
is
recorded
live
feed,
could
you
put
some
information
if
community
members
wanted
to
reach
out?
Who
would
they
talk
to?
If
it
was
not
you
who
would
they
contact.
R
If
you're,
not
in
contact
with
me,
obviously,
commissioner
cignani-
I
work
with
very
regularly
so
he
can
also
provide
my
contact
information.
I
can
put
my
email
in
the
chat
as
well,
and
my
my
contact
information
is
also
available
on
our
law.
Firm's
website.
M
A
Is
is
on
the
agenda
which
will
be
given
by
myself,
so
hopefully,
everyone
got
a
chance
to
review
the
attached
document,
which
was
emailed
to
everyone
did.
Is
there
anyone
on
the
chat
or
on
a
call
that
did
not
receive
the
gun,
violence
attachment.
A
Okay
sing,
none,
basically,
it's
just
an
idea
to
get
community
members
give
them
an
open
space
to
discuss
their
lived
experience
with
gun
violence,
kayla,
and
I
recently
had
a
communication
about
possibly
communicating
with
the
mayor
and
trying
to
get
another
day
of
stop
the
gun
violence
day
kyla.
Could
you
briefly
talk
about
that?
Please
ma'am.
L
Sure,
yes,
thank
you
vice
chair
definition,
happy
to
give
an
update,
so
I
reached
out
to
the
mayor's
public,
health
or
public
safety
aid,
and
let
him
know
that
the
commission
was
looking
into
renewing
the
stop
the
gun
violence
day.
As
you
had
asked
for
an
and
the
mayor
had
granted
last
year,
it
sounds
like
that.
That
should
be
just
fine.
I
haven't
gotten
complete
confirmation,
but
I
did
talk
to
him.
He's
gonna
double
check
some
things,
but
it
looks
like
that
should
be
definitely
possible.
A
Yes,
ma'am,
thank
you
moving
forward
is,
can
we
are
we
available
to
vote
on
moving
forward
with
stop
the
gun,
violence,
forums.
A
In
general,
because
I'm
sorry,
I
just
would
like
to
see
if
we
can
vote
on
this
as
moving
forward
as
a
forum.
A
A
You
I
second
the
motion
before
we
get
to
voting.
I
do
see,
commissioner
sagnati,
I
do
see
your
hand
is
ready.
Sir.
I
So
it
is
we're
creating
a
forum
here.
Is
it?
Is
it
simply?
You
know
a
forum
in
the
sense
of
a
group
of
commissioner
members
working
together
or
is
it
are
we?
Are
we
actually
going
to
make
these
forums
for
public
outreach
and
public
interaction,
or
is
you
know
what
is
is
this
is?
Are
we
just
at
the
formation
stage
here.
A
Well,
it'd
be
a
public
forum
as
kayla,
and
I
discussed
so
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
kayla.
Basically,
then
it'd
be
open
to
the
public,
similar
to
something
we're
having
now
sharing
information,
possibly
passing
it
on
to
council
members,
possibly
the
mayor
to
share
people's
lived
experience
about
gun
violence
in
the
community.
For
me,
I
live
in
ward
4
this
other
day.
You
know
I
can
hear
gunshots
outside
of
my
home.
So
it's
something
that
I
think
we
need
to
talk
about
and
create
a
safe
space
for
it.
A
I
try
to
request
money
for
community
members
for
their
their
time
and
their
shared
story,
because
I
know
when
you
had
a
family
member
who
has
been
a
victim
of
gun
violence,
it
can
be
very
traumatizing
to
discuss.
However,
that
idea
was
declined,
so
it'd
be
just
community
members
volunteering
their
time
to
share
their
lived
experiences.
I
hope
that
answers
your
question.
Mr
stignati.
A
Thank
you,
sir.
Is
there
anyone
else
with
any
questions
or
concerns
at
this
time.
A
No
clark
can
we
call
roll
on
starting
the
gun,
violence,
community
forums,
please,
yes,.
C
C
J
G
H
I
A
So
moving
on
discussion,
number
seven
public
hearing,
training.
L
Great,
so
this
is
very
brief.
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
put
it
on
everyone's
radar.
We
are
planning
to
so,
as
I've
mentioned
before,
I
think
in
meetings.
We
have
some
outstanding
contested
public
hearings
that
we
need
to
conduct
with
commissioners
on
those
panels,
so
it
will
likely
be
three
cases
over
I'm
hoping
we
can
get
them
all
done
by
the
end
of
2022.
L
But
to
that
end
we
need
to
get
all
of
our
commissioners
who
could
be
participating
trained
up
on
what
exactly
public
hearings
are,
what
what
to
expect
in
the
process.
So
we
are
holding
that
training
this
coming
wednesday
at
6
p.m.
L
It's
during
the
regularly
scheduled
standard
and
procedures
subcommittee
meeting,
so
the
expectation
is
that
all
the
attorney
members
will
be
present,
since
they
are
all
on
that
subcommittee,
but
also
any
of
the
other
commissioners
who
are
interested
are
certainly
welcome
to
attend,
and
I
will
note,
though,
that
only
attorney
members
can
serve
on
the
public
public
hearing.
L
So
that's
why
we're
doing
the
training
during
that
subcommittee
instead
of
you
know,
having
a
lot
of
folks
have
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
listening
to
stuff
when
they
can't
actually
serve
on
the
public
hearing
committee.
So
if
you
have
any
questions
between
now
and
then
feel
free
to
reach
out,
but
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
on
everyone's
radar
that
it's
very
important
to
attend.
That
meeting
and
it
looks
like
commissioner
crowder,
you
have
a
question:
go
for
it.
N
Yeah,
I
I
know
I'm
not
gonna
be
able
to
make
that
so
is
there?
Is
there
like
a
makeup
session
we
could
set
up
so
that
I
could
go
through
the
training
at
another
time?
Sorry,
I
just
I
just
have
a
something
late,
that
night,
I'm
not
gonna
be
able
to
get
out
of
it.
L
Sure
no
understandable,
so
we
don't
have
a
makeup
session
planned.
I
will
say
that
it
will
be
recorded
just
like
our
other
meetings
are
so
it
will
be
available,
and
certainly
we
can
make
ourselves
available
for
questions
if
you
were
to
go
through
that
and
still
have
outstanding
questions,
but
I
would
really
encourage
everybody
who
absolutely
can
make
it
to
please
do
so
that
you
can
ask
the
questions
in
real
time
while
we're
there,
and
we
can.
You
know
hopefully
all
get
on
the
same
page
as
quick
as
possible.
N
A
Thank
you
kayla.
Thank
you.
So
much
are
there
any
other
questions
or
comments
from
any
of
the
commissioners
at
this
time,
seeing
no
further
questions
or
concerns,
I
will
direct
the
clerk
to
receive
and
file
that
report
number
eight
review
panel
updates
and
assignments.
L
L
M
M
This
is
reviewing
case
sorry
review
panels.
Words
to
escape
me
review
panels
is,
is
a
part
of
our
duty
as
commissioners,
and
so,
if
you
read
section
two
of
our
operating
handbook,
you
can
read
all
about
it
there,
but
I'm
going
to
share
my
screen
and
show
y'all.
L
Great,
I
can
I'm
gonna
go
look
for
it
here,
quick,
okay,.
A
Janelle,
do
you
have
the
link
for
the
meeting
for
the
snp
training
on
on
my
calendar?
Yes,
I
was
wondering
if
we
could
put
it
in
the
chat,
so
if
community
members
want
to
join,
they
could
join.
L
Devenish
I
have
the
like
the
number
to
join
to
call
in
for
members
of
the
public.
I
can
put
that
in
the
chat
shortly.
Okay,.
M
M
Wonder
if
you
want
to
collapse
like
the
header
bar,
so
we
have,
and
maybe
just
zoom
in
quite
a
bit,
so
we
have
we're
doing
three
cases
a
month
like
we
did
last
year,
I
have
a
table
on.
The
left
has
just
case
numbers
one
through.
M
However
many
maybe
13
14.,
you
can
see
who's
the
attorney
commissioners
who's.
Not.
I
have
a
pivot
table
on
the
right,
they're,
just
breaking
out
making
sure
no
one
is
getting
slammed
in
a
single
month.
Besides
jeff
this
month,
commissioner
cobia
but
he'll
be
okay
and
yeah.
M
So
if
y'all
want
to
take
a
little
time
and
maybe
take
a
screenshot
of
this
kayla-
maybe
scroll
down
in
a
little
bit
so
people
have
time,
but
I
would
encourage
y'all
to
reach
out
to
the
other
people
on
your
panel,
and
even
you
know,
even
for
may
june,
if
you
want
to
set
up
time
now
to
meet-
and
you
have
capacity
before
that
month
to
get
your
panel
done.
That
would
be
an
extremely
helpful
thing
for
our
work
in
the
future,
but
also
for
the
department.
So
that
is
where
we're
at.
M
Otherwise,
I
I'm
happy
to
I'll
be
sending
out
emails
to
the
three
panelists
for
each
case
as
we
come
along.
One
other
note
is
that
kayla
and
the
department
are
going
to
send
out
review
conflicts
of
interest
forms
for
all
of
the
cases
now,
so
that
if
there
are
conflicts
of
interest,
we
can
reassign
and
move
commissioners
around.
A
Thank
you,
commissioners,
to
make.
I
do
see
people
with
their
hand
raised,
commissioner,
lord
and
former
commissioner
gold.
Please
go
ahead,
commissioner.
Lord.
O
This
is
a
question
for
kayla.
I
need
to
have
my
sharepoint
access
reset.
Who
can
I
reach
out
to
do
that
in
order
to
view
case
materials.
L
Yeah
we
can
take
care
of
that,
so
I'm
actually
going
to
jump
into
a
little
bit
more
on
review
panels
here
too,
but
one
of
the
things
that
I
was
going
to
mention
is
that
ashley
gold
will
be
the
new
kind
of
point
person
for
all
of
the
logistics
around
review
panels.
So
you
can
work
with
her
to
make
sure
that
we
can
figure
that
out
and
make
sure
that
you
have
access
and
I'm
happy
to
wait
for.
I
think,
there's
another
another
question.
Unless
ashley
is
that
just
a
part
of
our
presentation.
F
Okay,
great
hi,
everyone
I
was
just
gonna
say
I
can
send
out
that
file
when
I
also
send
the
conflict
of
interest
forms
that
way.
Everyone
has
the
names
and
the
cases
and
then
the
contra
conflict
of
interest
form.
If
that
works
for
everyone.
M
Would
just
recommend
copy
that
one
tab
over
and
delete
the
column
with
the
actual
case
numbers
until
we
assign
them
to
the
individual
commissioners.
A
And
I
do
have
one
question:
if
someone
is
sick
or
unable
to
keep,
you
know
their
their
designated
spot,
do
they
find
a
replacement
or
do
they
communicate
with
you
kayla
or
both.
L
So
I
think
it
probably
could
be
either
or
I
think
in
the
past,
people
have
communicated
with
us
and
we've
come
up
with
a
replacement,
but
I'm
certainly
not
opposed
to
you
know
coming
somebody
coming
forward
with
already
having
someone
in
mind
that
could
take
their
place.
I
will
note
that
with
how
we
do
review
panels
now
and
with
them
being
virtual
and
not
having
to
meet
at
a
specified
time
a
lot
of
times.
L
I
think
you
can
just
reschedule
with
your
commit
with
your
panel
and
hopefully
you
can
still
serve
on
it,
but
certainly
there
could
be
a
circumstance
where
you
have
an
extended
illness
or
something
and
then
you
need
to
be
replaced,
and
so
either
way
would
be
fine.
You
can
just
reach
out
to
us
and
we'll
try
to
find
a
replacement
happy
to
have.
You
suggest
a
replacement,
whatever
works
for
your
particular
situation,.
L
A
F
L
No
no
problem,
so
I
was
just
going
to
jump
into.
I
was
just
going
to
do
some
brief
kind
of
reminders,
so
we're
not
doing
a
review
panel
training
because
everyone
who's
still
on
the
commission
now
was
on
the
commission
at
the
beginning
of
2021
and
so
got
that
training,
but
I
just
wanted
to
go
through
some
general
reminders,
as
we
jump
back
into
doing
review
panels
here
in
the
next
month
or
so
so
one.
We
really
appreciate
all
the
work
that
folks
put
in
last
year.
You
really
had
a
banner
year.
L
You
beat
your
numbers
at
least
back
to
2016,
which
is
what
we
have
readily
available.
So
we
really
appreciate
that
and
we're
looking
forward
to
another
year.
I
want
to
encourage
any
communication
with
the
department
if
you
run
into
any
sort
of
technical
issues,
have
questions
you
know
sooner
rather
than
later.
If
you
can,
let
us
know
just
so,
we
can
help
move
things
along.
L
We
would
really
appreciate
that
I
did
just
some
general
reminders,
especially
for
folks
that
maybe
weren't
on
too
many
review
panels
last
year,
but
are
going
to
come
up
on
some
here
shortly.
The
review
panels
only
see
cases
that
are
no
probable
cause
cases
or
dismissals
from
the
department.
So
just
a
reminder,
those
are
the
only
reviewable
cases
that
come
to
those
review
panels.
You
don't
see
like
the
probable
cause,
determination,
cases
or
the
mediated
cases,
because
there
isn't
an
appeal
procedure
for
those.
L
So
just
something
to
keep
in
mind
the
standard
that
the
review
panels
are
applying
is
whether
the
department
clearly
errored
in
its
decision
there's
been
a
little
bit
of
confusion.
I
think
over
the
probable
cause
standard
that
we
apply
in
the
department,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
put
people
on
notice
that
we
are
currently
working
on
some
standard
language.
That's
going
to
start
going
in
every
determination
that
we
issue
just
to
try
to
explain
that
and
just
make
sure
that
everyone
is
on
the
same
page.
L
I
also
wanted
to
note
for
folks
that
our
process
is
administrative,
so
it
doesn't,
it
doesn't
replace
the
judicial
process
so
just
kind
of
a
note
and
reminder
that
each
complainant,
even
if
they're,
given
a
no
probable
cause
determination
or
a
dismissal
of
their
case,
they
do
also
get
a
right
to
sue
letter
which
does
allow
them
to
sue
out
their
case
in
court
if
they
would
like
to.
They
also
receive
this
if
they
get
a
sustaining
order
from
the
review
panel.
So
just
something
to
keep
in
mind.
L
I
did
also
note
we
saw
some
recommendations
and
some
remands
that
came
back
to
the
department
in
of
some
of
kind
of
the
logistical
and
organizational
pieces
of
how
the
department
and
the
commission
kind
of
interact
with
each
other
when
we
have
that
extra
part
of
the
process,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
note
that
we
are
going
to
start
signing
and
dating
remands
to
make
sure
that
it's
clear
kind
of
where
they
fall
in
the
process,
because
we
got
some
questions
about
that.
L
I
think
understandably,
so
it
felt
a
little
bit
jumbled
and
then
we
also
made
some
updates
to
the
sharepoint
site
that
you
all
access
to
look
at
case
files
to
try
to
make
it
just
a
little
bit
more
user-friendly
and
straightforward
and
make
sure
that
you
can
find
all
the
documents
that
you
need
to
find.
So
one
of
many
things
that
we
changed
was
we
added
a
remand
tab.
L
So
if
a
case
has
been
remanded
and
like
we've
issued
a
remand
memo
and
then
it
goes
back
to
a
review
panel
to
to
view
it's
going
to
have
a
tab
that
will
have
that
remand
memo,
but
then
also
everything-
that's
happened
since
the
remand.
So
if
we
did
an
additional
investigation
and
we
have
additional
materials-
it'll
all
be
in
that
one
spot.
So
it's
just
a
little
bit
more
clear.
L
You
know
what
was
done
in
response
to
the
remand
itself
and
then
oh
and
I
guess
the
the
only
thing
that
I
would
note
with
some
of
our
changes
to
like
the
determinations
and
adding
some
some
of
that
standard
language.
L
You
are
going
to
be
seeing
older
cases
first,
so
you're
not
going
to
see
that
change
right
away,
because
a
lot
of
the
cases
that
the
commission
will
review
in
the
first
half
of
this
year
have
been
outstanding
for
many
months,
and
so
just
so,
you
know,
if
you're
not
not
to
be
surprised,
if
you
don't
see
that
right
away,
but
we
are
doing
that
with
all
the
determinations
that
come
out
kind
of
from
this
point
forward,
and
with
that
I
will
turn
it
over
to
ashley,
who
you
already
heard
from
a
little
bit,
but
just
to
introduce
yourself.
L
Let
you
know
kind
of
the
role
that
she's
gonna
play.
Moving
forward
with
the
review
panels.
A
I'm
sorry
before
jumped
in
we
do
have
a
question
in
the
chat
from
commissioner
stignotti.
Commissioner
stagnati,
could
you
please
ask
kayla
your
question.
Please,
sir.
I
Certainly,
I
said
it
might
be
more
efficient
if
we
have
a
kind
of
a
bulk
list
of
the
names
and
the
of
the
respondent
and
clinton's
to
the
attorneys,
so
that
we
can
run
our
one
time
and
then
you
know
who's
clear
and
who's,
not
just
it
might
be
easier
to
do
it
in
batch
versus
one
at
a
time,
because
I
think.
L
Yeah,
I
think
that,
oh
sorry,
I
didn't
mean
to
cut
you
off.
No,
it's
fine,
so
yeah!
I
I
appreciate
the
suggestion,
commissioner
stanley.
It's
certainly
something
that
we
can
consider.
We
are
planning
to
send
all
of
the
conflict
of
interest
for
all
of
the
cases
that
have
currently
been
assigned.
So
it's
now,
you
know
for
the
next
six
months
or
so
we're
gonna
send
all
of
those
right
away
here
like
this
week,
so
that
we
can
kind
of
figure
out
conflicts
well
ahead
of
things.
F
All
right,
thank
you,
hi
everyone,
it's
good
to
be
back
in
the
mix
of
things.
On
the
other
side,
I'm
just
doing
a
quick
introduction
that
I'm
taking
over
matthew's
position
with
the
commission,
because
he
was
kind
of
like
the
point
of
contact
for
everybody,
sending
you
guys
the
cases.
F
So
if
you
have
any
questions
or
run
into
any
problems
with
sharepoint
or
conflict
of
interest,
you
can
just
reach
out
to
me
and
I'll
put
my
contact
info
in
the
chat,
my
work
cell,
so
you
can
text
me
and
I'll
also
be
the
one
like
harassing
you.
If
you
know
like
how
I
was
doing
last
year
in
like
a
really
friendly
way.
You
know
when
we
need
to
get
things
finished
on
deadline,
and
then
I
just
wanted
to
share
a
little
bit
about
being
a
part
of
the
department.
F
You
know
I
have
some
I've
gained
new
insight,
which
is
exciting.
Having
the
perspective
of
being
a
former
commissioner-
and
I
just
you
know-
I
just
really
want
to-
I
guess-
push
that
we
are
all
a
team
and
like
really
working
together
to
advance
the
civil
rights
for
our
city
and
we're
in
this
together.
We're
all
fighting
the
good
fight
together.
So
thanks
y'all.
L
Thanks
ashley,
I
appreciate
it,
so
I
think
that's
everything
that
we
have
on
behalf
of
the
department
and
review
panels
if
there
are
any
other
questions
happy
to
take
them,
but
looking
forward
to
another
successful
year.
L
A
You
so
much
for
that
update.
Does
any
of
the
commissioners
have
any
questions
or
concerns
they
would
like
to
address
at
this
time,
ashley
did
put
her
information
in
the
chat.
A
Okay,
seeing
none
I
will
ask
the
cur
clerk
to
receive
and
file
that
report.
Thank
you.
So
much
item
number
nine
subs
sub
committee
scheduling.
Is
there
someone
that
will
be
discussing
subcommittee
scheduling.
L
I
apologize
I
forgot.
I
was
on
that
one
too,
it's
a
busy
night
for
me
tonight,
so
this
is
also
just
a
brief
one,
but
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
moment
and
anyone
who
has
not
gotten
back
to
diana
about
subcommittee
scheduling
to
confirm
the
dates
that
she
had
sent
out
to
all
of
the
subcommittee
chairs.
Please
do
that
as
soon
as
possible.
She
can't
actually
schedule
anything
in
limbs
until
she
gets.
L
You
know
something
back
from
the
commissioners
running
the
subcommittee
saying
that,
yes,
these
dates
sound
good
or
you
know,
if
there's
any
changes
that
you
need
to
see
made,
but
I
don't
think
any
of
the
subcommittees
met
this
month,
other
than
the
housing,
advisory
task
force
or
work
group,
but
I
apologize
and
the
reason
for
that
is.
We
can't
schedule
it
until
we
hear
from
you
that
these
are
the
dates
that
you
would
like
it
actually
scheduled.
L
So
please
do
that
as
soon
as
possible,
if
you
have
any
questions
about
that
feel
free
to
reach
out
to
diana
reach
out
to
myself,
but
we're
hoping
that
we
can
get
those
go
get
those
moving
this
month.
Thank
you
thank.
A
You
so
much
does
any
commissioners
have
any
questions
or
concerns
they
would
like
to
address.
Regarding
subcommittee
scheduling.
A
J
Yes,
my
name
is
my
name.
Is
bob
warfield
I'd
like
to
address
the
commission.
J
Yes,
I
I
I'd
like
to
address
the
commission
on
this
ongoing
saga
of
the
hiawatha
golf
course,
and
I
have
some
very
concerning
feelings
about,
what's
going
on
with
the
minneapolis
park
board
and
how
they
are
being
so
almost
vindictive
and
non-relenting,
and
trying
to
close
this
golf
course,
which
has
a
huge
significance
of
historical
and
cultural
value
for
the
black
community.
J
We've
we've
tried
to
talk
to
him
work
with
the
minneapolis
park
board
on
different
ways
that
they
could
keep
the
course
open
things
they
could
do.
They
seem
to
be
pretty
much
excluding
my
language
hell,
bent
on
on
reducing
it
to
an
unusable
and
unworkable
nine-hole
golf
course-
and
you
know,
there's
a
couple
things
that
stand
out
in
my
mind.
It
really
concerns
me
at
how
they're
addressing
this.
J
I
kind
of
look
at
the
columbia
heights
golf
course
and
how
the
mississippi
watershed
kind
of
stepped
in
when
they
had
some
water
issues
and
I'm
sure
it's
a
lot
more
complicated
than
making
it
sound
right
now.
But
just
for
the
length
of
time
I
have,
but
the
minnehaha
watershed,
which
is
responsible
for
a
lot
of
the
issues
going
on
with
the
hiawatha
golf
course
has
not
stepped
up
in
any
way
whatsoever.
J
As
the
the
golf
course
in
northeast
minneapolis
received,
and
then
there's
also,
the
incidence
of
the
golf
course
being
allotted
almost
900
thousand
dollars
in
fema
money
to
repair
itself.
That
money
was
then
taken
and
divided,
along
with
two
other
golf
course
to
do.
Capital
improvements
for
golf
courses
that
weren't
even
involved
in
the
flooding
incident.
That
in
and
of
itself,
makes
me
feel
as
though
the
hiawatha
golf
course
is
not
being
given
the
same
treatment
as
others.
J
I
I
think
it's
just
an
issue
that
the
park
board
and
the
commissioner,
who
is
specifically
in
charge
of
that
area,
really
doesn't
have
a
concern
for
the
historical
or
cultural
value
that
I'm
placing
on
it
and
and
the
black
community
is
placing
on
that
golf
course.
And
I
I
just
wanted
to
just
put
that
out
there
to
the
commission
and
go
on
record
as
saying
that
this
it
just
doesn't
seem
like
it's
being
treated
in
the
same
manner.
A
Thank
you
bob
for
bringing
that
to
our
attention.
We
greatly
appreciate
it.
You
mentioned
that
you
communicated
with
the
park
board
your
council
member.
Have
you
tried
to
reach
out
to
the
mayor.
J
Yes,
we
have
had
meetings
with
mayor
fry
and
his
group.
I
could
give
you
a
list
there's
just
a
large
number
of
folks
who
we've
talked
to
we've
worked
with
the
representative
and
the
senators
for
the
area
and
they've
been
very
responsive.
J
However,
the
park
board
has
kind
of
taken
a
position
that
we
can
kind
of
do
what
we
want
with
this,
and-
and
I
you
know,
having
the
I
don't
know
the
authority
to
do.
Something
is
one
thing,
but
I
just
we
are
still
in
in
conversations
we've
got
allies
in
different
places.
I
just
wanted
to
go
on
record
what
the
commission
is
saying
that
I
just
looking
at
how
this
course
has
been
treated
over
the
years.
A
Thank
you
again,
bob
for
sharing
that
information.
I
have
a
question
for
miss
neff,
considering
that
we
do
mostly
employment
discrimination.
What
is
something
that
we
could
possibly
do
to
address
this
community
members
concerns.
Q
This
is
andrea
speaking,
I
I'll
I'll
do
my
best,
commissioner
devenish,
although
I
don't
exactly
perceive
that
there's
a
legal
issue
here,
I
would
say
that
the
park
board
operates
completely
separately
from
the
city,
so
the
commission's
role
here
could
be
one
of
an
advocate
to
advocate
if
it
felt
that
this
was
a
civil
rights
issue
for
the
park
board
to
take
an
action,
but
you
wouldn't
have
a
this
is
not
something
that
our
city
council
would
be
deciding,
because
the
park
board
is
a
separate
local
entity
that
we
can't
influence
in
quite
the
same
way.
Q
Does
that
answer
your
question,
at
least
from
a
legal
perspective.
A
Yes,
ma'am.
Thank
you
so
much.
A
Thank
you
so
much
for
addressing
that
does
any
other
commissioner,
would
like
to
ask
bob
any
questions.
I
do
see
someone's
hand
raised.
A
I'm
trying
to
see
who
it
is.
I'm
sorry,
mr
fine,
sorry
thank
you.
D
Is
that
the
maybe
the
chair
of
the
civil
rights
commission
sends
an
inquiry
or
a
letter
to
the
park
board,
asking
them
what
steps
or
considerations
they've
made
to
consideration
of
what
they're
doing
regarding
the
golf
course,
because
it's
it's
historically
been
seen
by
the
african-american
community
as
an
important
golf
course
and
amenity
to
the
park
system
for
them,
as
well
as
where
they
hold
this
bronze
tournament,
which
is
in
which
is
primarily
an
african-american
golf
tournament
every
year,
and
the
worry
is
that
this
golf
course
will
disappear
and
will
greatly
impact
it.
D
A
Mr
fine,
I
think
that
is
a
great
idea
since
you
brought
it
up,
and
you
seem
to
already
have
the
language
fall
flowing.
Is
that
something
that
you
can
help
draft
up.
D
A
Thank
you
so
much,
mr
fine.
Is
there
any
other
commissioners
who
would
like
to
help
mr
find
develop
and
draft
this
letter.
C
A
Thank
you,
commissioner
cobia.
Mr
warfield.
Would
you
is,
does
that
help
satisfy
your
comment
and
inquiry
towards
the
civil
rights
commission?
Is
that
mr
fine,
commissioner,
fine
and
commissioner
cobia
will
help
draft
a
letter
inquiring
to
the
park
board
in
terms
of
what
steps
they
have
taken?
Does
that
help
your
issue,
sir?.
J
It
certainly
does,
and
I
certainly
appreciate
it-
I
did
not
come
forward
to
looking
for
you
to
solve
my
problems.
I
just
wanted
to
go
on
record
and
ask
for
any
assistance
necessary,
and
that
certainly
would
help
with
that
assistance.
A
Yes,
sir,
I
do
personally
believe
that
that
is
what
we're
here
for
is
to
try
to
help
in
whatever
capacities
we
can
when
we
can.
So.
Thank
you
so
much,
commissioner
fine
and
thank
you,
commissioner
cobia
for
addressing
mr
warfield's
comment.
Thank
you.
So
much
is
there
any
other
community
members
on
the
line
that
would
like
to
address
the
commission
at
this
time.
A
Seeing
none
I
want
to
thank.
Oh
I'm
sorry,.
J
E
Yes,
my
name
is
dave
picking.
I
would
like
to
address
the
commission
I'm
interested
in
the
process
that
has
been
followed
or
not
followed
for
getting
more
members
on
the
commission,
the
application
and
approval
process.
E
I
follow
the
police
conduct
oversight
commission
very
closely
and
attend
all
their
meetings.
This
was
the
first.
I
had
heard
that
the
process
that
they
have
been
using
this
year
is
a
pilot
program.
It's
if
this
is
a
pilot
program.
The
only
reasonable
lesson
to
learn
from
it
is
to
do
everything
exactly
the
opposite.
E
The
the
program
for
getting
applications
has
been
an
unmitigated
disaster
over
at
the
pcoc.
They
still
don't
have
new
members
you
they
didn't
have
quorum
at
their
march
meeting.
I
doubt
very
much.
They'll
have
quorum
at
their
april
meeting.
They
also
closed
their
application
process
at
the
end
of
october.
E
At
that
time,
there's
two
people
I
know
who
had
applied.
You
know
that
I
personally
know
both
of
them
were
notified,
that
their
applications
were
received.
Neither
of
those
people
has
received
any
update
whatsoever
since
the
time
they
put
in
their
application.
There
has
been
no
communication
whatsoever
with
the
applicants
to
explain
what
was
going
on
once
again,
the
commission
assumed
that
they
would
have
new
members
in
january
and
found
out
no
that
it's
going
to
be
put
off
until
march
I
paid
put
off
until
may
rather
to
have
new
members
on
the
commission.
E
This
is
absolutely
a
wrong
process.
There's
no
reason
why
that
the
application,
the
appointments
have
to
be
made
in
the
spring
cycle
when
the
terms
end
at
the
end
of
the
year.
That
is
exactly
the
opposite
of
what
you
would
logically
expect.
So
I'm
sorry
to
hear
that
the
civil
rights
commission
is
having
the
same
problem.
I
think
it's
a
pattern
of
the
city
and
the
civil
rights
department
doing
what
they
can
to
frustrate
the
work
of
both
of
the
commissions.
E
Just
briefly,
your
next
topic
on
the
agenda
is
the
after
action
report
from
hillard
heinz
I'd
like
to
say
that's
a
private
outfit.
They
were
contracted
by
the
city
to
do
this,
rather
than
the
city
doing
an
evaluation
by
people
who
know
something
about
minneapolis
and
were
here
at
the
time
when
this
happened.
A
Thank
you
dave
for
that
update.
We
do
appreciate
your
time.
Is
there
any
commissioners
that
would
like
to
comment
to
or
add
to
dave's
comments
at
this
time.
A
Okay,
thank
you
dave
for
your
comment.
We
do
appreciate
you
calling
in
and
participating.
A
I
want
to
thank
all
the
speakers
for
their
comments
tonight.
Next
number,
11,
unfinished
business
sylvan
rest
act
after
action,
review,
presentation
to
the
city
council.
I
The
is
the
civil
rights
department
to
put
this
into
the
agenda
just
so.
Everyone
has
a
chance
to
look
at
it
and
read
it
much
like
our
mr
making's
commentary.
Earlier.
I
find
this
less
than
helpful,
the
it's
it's
it
does
for
everyone's
attention.
We
are
still
trying
to
get
the
minneapolis
police
department
to
deliver
less
than
lethal
rounds
data
to
us.
I
I
So
again,
it's
it's
another
piece
of
information.
We
are
still
attempting
to
get
less
than
lethal
weapons
data
from
the
minneapolis
police
department,
we're
just
not
going
away
until
they
show
up
with
us.
So,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
we
hopefully
will
have
a
better
sense
of
this
answer
than
this
report
was
given
so
again
it's
we
take
it
as
it's
presented,
but
again
also,
I
think,
some
of
their
fact
finding
is
erroneous
based
upon
my
interviews,
but
the
mpd
as
well.
I
So,
that's
really
all
that
I
have
to
say
about
that.
I
encourage
people
to
take
a
look
at.
It
is
public
records,
so
everyone
should
read
it
and
then
also
the
lawsuits
civil
lawsuit
says
this
coal
had
brought
forth
are
beginning
to
settle
on
these,
and
so,
as
those
lawsuits
begin,
so
more
more
of
the
discovery
will
become
readily
available
around
this
as
well.
So.
A
A
I
I
You
know,
essentially
removing
which
is
a
good
practices
declaration
that
there's
some
security
evidence,
there's
a
security
data
that
is
being
protected
by
not
disclosing
that,
even
though
the
ammunition
manufacturer
which
was
redacted
is
on
every
single
round,
that's
in
the
photos
that
have
been
used
in
all
the
in
all
the
you
know,
the
riots
so
again,
kayla
has
been
greatly
helpful
and,
given
that,
through
you
know,
getting
requested
there,
you
know
we're
going
to
keep
pushing
until
something
comes
out
comes
through.
A
Thank
you,
sir,
for
your
work.
I'm
just
wondering
is
that
something
that
do
you
think
the
mayor
can
help
out
on.
A
I'm
wondering
if
kayla
can,
because
she's
great
at
reaching
out
to
the
mayor
kayla,
is
there
any
way
that
you
can
help?
Commissioner
stagnati
arrange
an
appointment
with
the
mayor
to
ask
him
if
he
can
help
resolve
or
have
a
communication
about
mr
stegnadi's
work.
L
Commissioner
devinish
thanks
for
the
question
I
would
say
we
certainly
can
consider
something
in
that
realm.
I
know
that
we've
talked
about
putting
together
a
list
of
a
variety
of
topics
that
the
commission
would
like
to
discuss
with
the
mayor
in
the
mayor's
office.
So
maybe
this
would
be
one
of
the
things
that
goes
on
that
list.
A
Okay,
thank
you,
commissioner
stagnati.
Is
that
something
that
would
help
you?
Of
course?
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
sir
any
other
questions
or
concerns
from
the
commission,
seeing
none
we'll
move
on
to
number
12
commission,
commissioner,.
L
L
And
that
is
me
as
well
so
hi
everyone
again,
so
I
just
again
this
is
another
quick
update,
but
it's
in
response
to
some
of
the
feedback
that
we
got
throughout
the
year
last
year,
where
there
was
just
some
challenges
with
the
the
payment
forms
and
who
they
were
going
to
and
how
they
were
getting
processed.
So
we
have
streamlined
the
system.
L
We
met
with
finance
to
make
sure
that
we
were
doing
this
in
as
straightforward
and
clear
away,
hopefully
making
it
a
little
bit
easier
on
you
all
so
in
the
agenda,
you'll
see
a
new
protocol
that
you
can
open,
but
I'll
also
just
open
it
here,
so
we
can
all
be
looking
at
it
very
quickly.
Can
you
see
my
screen?
Yes,
great?
Okay,
so
this
is
a
step-by-step
guide,
as
you
can
see
by
the
lack
of
bullet
points,
it's
really
not
too
complicated
or
shouldn't
be
so
we
have
updated
the
payment
form.
L
I'm
not
going
to
show
it
on
here
because
it
has
like
the
our
vendor
or
sorry
our
funding
strings
and
things
like
that.
But
it's
very
straightforward.
Really
all
you
need
to
enter
in
it's
going
to
be
a
fillable
pdf
form
and
all
you
have
to
enter
in
is
your
name,
your
address,
the
date
of
whatever
you're
asking
for
payment
for
so
whether
that's
a
commission
meeting
or
a
review
panel
you're
going
to
need
to
fill
in
the
amount
of
payment
that
you're
requesting.
L
I
have
a
reminder
here,
but
it's
also
on
the
form
that
it's
35
for
monthly
commission
meetings
and
100
for
review
panel
sessions.
There's
a
drop
down
option
in
the
fillable
pdf
form.
That
only
has
those
two
options
to
hopefully
make
it.
You
know
just
that
much
easier
to
know
what
to
choose
and
then
you'll
need
to
put
your
vendor
code
enter
your
vendor
code
into
the
form
and
sign
it,
but
you
will
not
need
to
send
it
back
for
to
the
department
for
any
sort
of
signatures.
L
You
can
send
it
directly
to
our
finance
department
at
submit
invoices
at
minneapolismn.gov.
You
can
see
the
email
address
right
there.
That
email
address
is
also
on
the
new
form,
so
you'll
have
it
in
multiple
places
and
you
can
submit
more
than
one
payment
form
at
a
time
like
on
a
single
email,
but
each
payment
form
has
to
be
an
individual
pdf.
So
you
can't
submit
one,
for
instance,
that
has
a
line
for
a
commission
meeting
and
then
also
a
line
for
a
review
panel
session.
L
Each
payment
you're
requesting
has
to
be
a
separate
pdf,
but
they
can
all
be
attached
in
one
email
that
email
will
go
directly
to
the
finance
folks,
who
will
process
the
forms
and
then
they
will
submit
it
back
to
us
to
me
to
do
the
final
approval
and
sign
off.
So
I'm
not
signing
anything
at
the
front
end
just
after
it
goes
through
the
finance
process.
L
As
kind
of
the
final
step,
I
also
provided
the
the
contact
person
over
in
finance
to
reach
out
to,
if
you
run
into
any
issues
with
this
kind
of
new
technical
process,
her
name
is
jean.
You
can
see
your
email
right
there
and
we
will
get
that
new
commission
payment
form
out
to
folks
within
the
next
day
or
two.
So
that
you
have
that
and
can
start
filling
it
out.
L
I
know
we've
we've
said
this
before,
but
it
still
stands
that
this
tends
to
go
better
and
just
be
a
little
bit
more
smooth.
If
you
can
complete
the
payment
forms
as
close
to
the
time
you
actually
engage
in
whatever
the
activity
is
as
possible,
so
for
instance,
once
you
have
this
new
form,
you
can
fill
it
out
for
this
commission
meeting
get
that
submitted
and
then
we
can
get
those
payments
out
as
soon
as
possible
same
thing
with
the
review
panels.
A
I
don't
have
any
questions.
I
do
see
that
you
did
put
the
number
in
the
chat
for
this
standards
and
procedures,
so
community
members
can
call
in
if
they
want
to
participate
or
ask
any
questions.
Also,
commissioner,
studyati
asked:
may
we
decline
to
be
paid?
Commissioner
sue
makes
said.
Yes
is
that
information
correct.
L
A
Okay,
thank
you.
So
much
are
there
any
other
questions
or
concerns
from
commissioners
at
this
time,
seeing
none
I'll
ask
the
clerk
to
receive
and
file
that
report
new
business.
C
It's
very
quick
I
just
wanted
to.
Let
you
all
know
that
the
university
of
minnesota
law
school,
which
is
my
alma
mater
for
law
school,
has
just
announced
that
they're
going
to
have
a
racial
justice
law
clinic,
and
I
plan
to
reach
out
once
once
the
person
who
is
in
charge
of
that
actually
comes
over
to
the
school.
I
think
she
previously
worked
for
the
naacp,
but
once
that's
up
and
running
I
plan
to
reach
out
so
I
just
wanted
to
to
let
everyone
know.
C
I
may
have
an
update
at
some
point
in
the
future
regarding
this,
but
I
don't
really
have
anything
yet,
but
they
do
have
a
clinic,
so
we
may
have
an
opportunity
or
they
may
be
able
to
help
us
or
we
may
be
able
to
help
them.
I
don't
know,
but
that's
that's
sort
of
where
it's
at.
A
C
Sure,
let
me
let
me
give
a
little
more
background,
so
the
law
clinics
at
the
the
university
are
opportunities
for
law
students
to
conduct
real
world
lawyering.
Basically,
so
you
know
I
was
in
a
special
education
clinic
and
what
we
did
was
helped
students
who
had
disabilities
or
or
whatever
ieps,
and
we
would
advocate
for
them
at
due
process
hearings.
C
So
what
I
imagine
this
clinic
will
do
is
some
combination
of
possibly
legal
outreach
or
legal
writing
related
to
racial
justice
issues
in
minneapolis
and
minnesota,
but
they
may
also
take
cases,
so
it's
possible
that
they
could
represent
people
even
at
the
department.
I
really
don't
know
what
their
scope
is
going
to
be
and
I'm
sure
it'll.
You
know
change
over
the
years,
but
it's
it's
law,
students
who
are
somehow
participating
in
legal,
real
world
legal
issues
to
gain
experience.
Usually
it's
3ls,
but
it
can
be.
A
I
C
I
So
the
aclu
in
minnesota
has
a
new
leader,
bender
male.
I
was
wondering
if
you
would
be
interested
in
having
him
visit
one
of
our
meetings
in
the
upcoming
future,
just
to
introduce
himself
and
and
make
himself
down
known
to
the
to
the
commission
in
general.
N
Hey
this,
this
is
commissioner
crowder.
I
think
it's
a
great
idea.
My
wife
again
works
for
the
aclu
and
they
are
extremely
excited
about
him
and
and
made
a
big
push
as
the
staff
to
make
sure
he
was
the
one
who
was
selected
after
they
had
interviewed
him
and
some
of
the
other
candidates.
So,
if
you'd
like,
I
could
ask
her
to
try
and
arrange
given
given
that
they're
in
close
proximity
happy
to
do
it
better.
A
Thank
you
just
to
let
you
know
in
the
chat,
commissioner.
Lord
put
a
thumbs
up
and
in
the
chat
we
do
have
the
linkedin
link
for
community
members
to
see
this
individual.
A
Thank
you
everyone
for
your
comments.
I
request
that
the
clerk
receive
and
file
that
report
report
number
14.
The
final
item
on
our
agenda
is
from
standards
and
committees
and
task
force.
We
will
begin
with
community
engagement,
research
subcommittee.
G
From
the
commission
from
the
subcommittee,
so
I
have
just
responded
to
diana
to
get
our
subcommittee
meeting
set
up
for
starting
in
april,
so
no
kind
of
updates
from
our
subcommittee
until
then,
but
first
order
of
business.
I
think
we'll
be
regrouping
on
submissions
and
discussing
the
awards
that
we
want
to
nominate
for
this
year
and
get
those
under
the
way.
A
Okay
and
I,
I
would
humbly
request
that
we
also
put
on
the
agenda
time
to
discuss
the
gun.
Violence,
stop
the
gun,
violence,
community
forum.
G
Yep
I
can
put
that
on.
I
was
going
to
reach
out
to
the
broader
subcommittee.
Once
we
got
the
agenda
once
we
got
the
meetings
on
the
calendar
to
reach
out
for
agenda
topics,
so
we
can.
G
We
can
discuss
as
a
committee.
I
guess
my
question
is
just
I'm
not
sure
where
he
landed
last
time
on
knowing
that
our
committee
is
down
one
member
and
down
technically
the
chair.
If
there
was
gonna,
be
any
like
additions
to
the
subcommittees
or
if
we
were
gonna
keep
them,
as
is
before
the
new
commission
nurse
joined,
I
mean.
J
A
A
Okay,
I
I
thought
I
saw
something
from
chair:
may
that
kind
of
outlined
who's
on
what
commission,
commissioner
schumic,
do
you
remember
seeing
that
email
or
kayla?
Do
you
remember
discussing
that
with
chairman
and
who's
serving
on
what
subcommittee.
L
Yes,
I
do.
I
I
think
I
have
some
basic
recollection.
I
believe
the
idea
was
that
everyone
was
gonna
stay
on
their
current
subcommittees.
I
do
see
how
that
would
maybe
change,
depending
on
commissioner
devinish,
like
what
you
wanted
to
do
as
vice
chair.
If
you
wanted
to
remain
on
that
subcommittee,
but
I
believe
you
had
expressed
interest
in
staying
on
that
subcommittee.
So
I
don't
think
that
particular
subcommittee
is
down
a
member,
but
I
also
know
that
we
might
have
some
officers
from
last
year
who
maybe
weren't
on
committees.
G
Oh
sorry,
it's
down
a
number
because
commissioner,
gold
left
the
commission
and
she
was
the
chair,
and
I
would
I
was
that
I
was
I
was
vice
chair
and
I
am
now
within
the
chair
commit
position
because
commissioner
gold
had
left
the
commission,
but
just
there
wasn't
any
like
formality
in
that.
So
just
wanting
to
get
some
clarity
on
that.
L
Yeah
got
it.
Thank
you
for
the
clarification
on
that
yeah.
So
the
what
I,
what
I
guess
I
would
foresee
happening
is
that
the
subcommittee
can
decide
amongst
themselves.
If
they'd
like
to
you
know,
stick
with
the
chair
that
they
currently
have
as
a
whoever
was
cheering
at
the
end
of
2021
or,
if
they'd
like
to
elect
a
new
chair.
L
But
I
will,
I
guess
I
would
note,
because
I
think
there
there
might
be
a
little
bit
of
confusion
remaining
here
if
you
are
not
on
a
subcommittee,
because
you
were
you
know
an
officer
last
year,
and
so
you
weren't
assigned
to
one
but
you're
not
this
year
or
something
like
that.
Please
reach
out.
Let's
have
you
reach
out
to
ashley
ashley
gold
and
just
let
her
know
and
we'll
we'll
try
to
help
facilitate
making
sure
chairmae
assigns
everyone
to
a
subcommittee
just
in
case
anyone
was
missed
in
that
process.
A
Thank
you
moving
forward
number
two
standards
and
procedures
subcommittee.
Commissioner,
fine
chair,
mr
stigati
vice
chair.
Would
you
like
to
share
some
updates?
Please,
gentlemen:.
D
The
only
update
I
can
think
of
is
we're
meeting
in
two
days
and
reminder
to
anyone
who
wants
to
see
the
training
to
log
on
on
wednesday.
That's
it.
A
Thank
you,
commissioner.
Fine
number
three
workforce
and
contract
compliance
subcommittee,
mr
rants,
who
is
the
chair,
mr
stignati,
the
vice
chair
gentleman?
Would
you
like
to
please
provide
an
update.
A
Because
I
just
want
to
tell
him
that
his
microphone
is
mooted,
so
if
he
is
trying
to
speak,
we
can't
handle
him.
So
we
would
need
him
to
unmute
himself,
but
please
go
ahead.
Mr
stignati.
I
A
Thank
you,
sir
number.
Four,
a
vice
chair
of
the
civil
rights
commission.
I
do
not
have
any
updates
at
this
time.
Chairman
is
not
in
today.
So
no
updates
from
her
number
six.
The
civil
rights
department
director
of
complaint
investigation
division,
miss
kayla.
Do
you
have
any
updates
that
you
would
like
to
share
at
this
time
ma'am?
A
L
Have
a
few!
Thank
you
very
much,
commissioner.
I'm
sorry
that
I'm
talking
so
much
this
meeting,
but
one
of
the
things
that
have
been
requested
recently
is
that
we
provide
more
substantive
updates
on
some
of
the
work
of
the
department.
So
I
do
have
a
few
things
that
I
was
gonna
provide
updates
to
the
commission
on.
L
I
will
try
to
keep
it
brief,
as
I
know
that
it's
already
past
eight
o'clock,
but
a
few
kind
of
new
developments
in
the
complaint
investigations
realm
and
the
civil
rights
department
realm
that
I
wanted
to
touch
on
is
one
the
right
to
counsel
ordinance.
So
this
is
an
ordinance
that
went
through
a
few
months
ago
and
it
provides
a
right
to
counsel
to
any
resident
of
the
city
who
is
facing
an
eviction
action
as
long
as
they
meet
a
certain
financial
criteria,
which
is
200
percent
of
the
federal
poverty
guidelines.
L
So
the
the
civil
rights
department
and
specifically
the
complaint
investigations
division,
has
been
working
with
cped.
I
always
have
trouble
spelling
that
one
out,
but
you
all
have
met
with
them
before
on
different
other
initiatives
and
what
the
city
is
doing
to
provide
this
guarantee
of
counsel
for
eviction
proceedings.
L
Is
that
we're
contracting
with
legal
aid
who,
as
many
of
you
know,
provides
a
lot
of
housing,
support
legal
support
in
minneapolis
already
and
does
a
lot
of
this
work,
as
is
an
expert
in
eviction
defense
or
I
apologize
in
representing
folks
in
eviction
proceedings.
So
that
being
said,
I
just
wanted
the
commission
to
know
that
that
is
occurring
and
legal
aid
is
also,
and
the
city
is
also
working
with
hennepin
county,
because
they
have
a
variety
of
folks
assigned
to
this
sort
of
representation
as
well.
L
But
it's
a
pretty
cool
change
in
in
the
city
and
the
county
to
be
able
to
provide
this
sort
of
representation
to
folks.
So
if
you,
if
you
do
run
into
anyone
or
yourself,
are
experiencing
an
eviction,
proceeding
and
do
not
have
representation-
and
you
know
meet
those
that
criteria
for
for
income
definitely
reach
out
to
legal
aid.
L
You
can
reach
out
to
the
department
as
well,
and
we
can
help
route
you
to
legal
aid
to
make
sure
that
you
do
you
or
whoever
you
might
be
in
contact
with
who's
experiencing.
This
has
the
representation
that
they
need
and
that
they
now
are
guaranteed
under
the
ordinance.
So
that's
one
update
things
going
on
here
that
the
complaint
investigations
division.
You
know
as
a
part
of
the
department
as
a
whole,
as
well,
has
recently
formalized
a
partnership
with
seward
longfellow
restorative
justice,
which
is
a
restorative
justice
agency.
L
Here
in
the
city,
they
do
obviously
restorative
justice
work
where
they
it's
a
voluntary
process
where
they
try
to
bring
folks
together
to
make
things
right
after
harm
has
occurred,
as
I've
talked
about
in
previous
meetings
and
I'm
sure
that
you
all
have
understood
over
time.
Just
looking
at
our
cases.
L
There
are
many
complaints
that
come
into
the
complaint
investigations,
division
that
don't
necessarily
fit
squarely
under
the
ordinance
and
and
don't
fit
as
a
case
that
we
can
necessarily
file
a
charge
of
discrimination
and
investigate,
but
they
still
might
pose
problematic
allegations
of
of
behavior
that's
taking
place,
and
so
we
took
this
step
to
to
reach
out
to
some
external
community
partners
to
see
if
there's
good
places
where
we
can
send
folks
and
make
sure
that
they
do
get
some
form
of
assistance,
even
if
it
isn't
something
that
our
division
can
particularly
take
on
and
provide.
L
So
we're
really
excited
about
it.
The
the
types
of
cases
that
we've
already
started,
referring
that
way,
our
neighbor
to
neighbor
style
discrimination,
claims
so
like
a
homeowner
to
another
homeowner.
Neither
of
those
folks
would
necessarily
fall
under
an
entity
that
we
can
pursue
a
discrimination
case
against
such
as
an
employer,
a
property
owner
who's
like
a
landlord
and
things
of
that
nature.
So
we
wanted
to
have
some
place
where
those
types
of
cases
could
go.
So
those
are
the
types
of
cases
we
started.
L
Referring
that
way,
and
the
seward
longfellow
restorative
justice
kind
of
has
a
whole
set
of
tools
that
they
can
provide.
The
restorative
justice
process
is
a
voluntary
one,
so
there's
not
necessarily
a
guarantee
that
the
person
who's
engaging,
allegedly
engaging
in
the
problematic
behavior,
will
engage
with
a
restorative
process.
But
the
really
great
thing
is
is
that
this
organization
is
prepared
and
regularly
does
provide
additional
resources
to
complainants
or
to
the
victims
of
this
alleged
behavior.
That
goes
beyond
what
the
department
necessarily
could
provide,
so
they
could,
for
instance,
provide
support
in
gathering.
L
You
know
additional
neighbors
to
help
this
person
feel
more
safer
to
have
a
phone
tree
that
they
would
call
if
an
incident
happens
and
anything
else
that
really
would
provide
support
to
the
complainant.
They're
very
focused
on
the
person
who's
alleging
the
behavior.
What
do
they
need,
what
would
be
helpful
to
them
and
they
really
have
a
pretty
wide
open
field
of
then
the
the
resources
and
the
assistance
that
they
can
provide.
L
So
we're
excited
about
that
and
we'll
we'll
kind
of
report
out,
as
it
makes
sense
to
the
commission
and
to
others
about
how
that
is
going,
and
you
know
any
potential
future
changes
we
might
make
to
that
process.
I
do
seem
to
see
some
questions,
so
I'm
happy
to
answer
those
questions
before
I
move
on
to
my
last
point,
and
let
me
see
it
looks
like
commissioner.
Lord
has
her
hand
up.
O
So
my
question:
well,
I
guess
to
contextualize
it.
I
know
that
one
thing
we've
struggled
with
in
general
has
been
getting.
You
know,
good
data
on
programs
and
with
this
being
a
new
program,
my
question
is:
are
we
setting
it
up
in
such
a
way
that
we're
going
to
be
able
to
collect
data
on
outcomes
in
order
to
you
know,
potentially
support
additional
assuming
it
works
potential?
L
So
yes,
we
have.
Thank
you
very
much
for
the
question,
commissioner.
Lord,
we
do
have
a
full
reporting
structure
set
up
so
that
we'll
be
tracking
all
of
the
cases
that
get
referred
to
this
partner
and
tracking
all
the
outcomes,
so
that
we
can
assess
that.
M
Yeah,
thank
you
for
presenting
on
this
kayla.
Can
you
share
with
us?
How
did
this
partnership
come
about.
L
Absolutely
so
one
of
the
I
mean
kind
of
the
the
background
background
is
that
especially
both
after
the
2016
election
and
then
after
the
pandemic
began.
We
were
hearing
more
and
more
about
discrimination,
related
incidents
that
were
happening
between
kind
of
members
of
the
public
versus
in
an
employment
context
and
a
housing
context,
kind
of
the
things
that
we
were
more
used
to,
seeing
not
that
it
wasn't
happening
before
that,
but
we
were
seeing
more
cases
after
those
those
two
kind
of
points
in
time.
L
So
that's
what
started
our
conversations
about
you
know.
Could
we
could
we
formalize
some
partnerships
with
community
organizations
that
would
have
the
ability
to
address
these
types
of
situations
beyond
what
the
department
could
provide
and
the
complaint
investigations
division
could
provide,
and
so
that's
what
started
us
looking
into
kind
of
what
those
options
could
be.
L
We
also
met
with
the
human
rights
commission
in
new
york
city
to
talk
about
some
of
their
resources
like
this
that
handle
these
types
of
situations,
because
I
think
we've
all
seen
in
the
news
there's
been
a
lot
of
this
stuff
reported
specifically
in
new
york
city,
and
they
had
expressed
that
they
had
a
local
restorative
justice
partner,
that
they
were
referring,
cases
to
and
felt
that
that
was
useful
and
successful.
So
that
was
our
jumping
off
point
and
then
we
reached
out
to
pretty
much.
L
I
I
believe,
all
of
the
local
restorative
justice
agencies
in
the
city
of
minneapolis
to
see
who
was
interested
and
seward
longfellow
restorative
justice
reached
out
and
was
interested
in
partnering
with
us,
and
so
that's
how
we
that
was
the
jumping
off
point
to
okay.
What
would
a
partnership
look
like
what?
What
sort
of
process
could
we
follow?
What
types
of
cases
could
we
send
their
way?
L
What
could
they
provide
to
the
complainants,
and
we
did
do
about
a
six-month
pilot
with
them
with
just
a
couple
of
cases
to
see
how
it
would
go,
and
you
know
what
our
process
should
be.
That
was
successful.
We
revamped
some
of
our
steps
to
make
sure
we
were
being
as
effective
as
possible,
but
now
it's
it's
a
formal,
formal
partnership.
M
L
Actually,
a
really
good
segue
to
my
next
topic.
So
thank
you,
commissioners.
You
make,
but
I
will
definitely
note
that
that
there
could
be
some
interest
in
commission
involvement.
L
We
plan
to
have
more
a
formal
presentation
on
hopefully
at
the
next
monthly
commission
meeting,
but
the
complaint
investigations
division
in
conjunction
with
the
entire
department
and
with
andrew
hawkins,
who
you've
already
heard
from
and
his
staff
are
working
on
a
project
that
would
provide
a
potential
opportunity
for
some
members
of
the
commission
to
get
mediation
trained
so
that
you
could
potentially
as
commissioners
and
and
you
would
get
the
training
kind
of
as
as
a
part
of
being
on
the
commission.
L
But
you
would
participate
as
a
mediator
kind
of
outside
of
your
commission
role
right.
You
would
be
mediating
as
an
individual
but
a
way
for
some
of
the
commissioners
to
get
more
involved
in
our
cases,
and
especially
our
cases
that
aren't
necessarily
getting
a
no
probable
cause,
determination
or
a
dismissal
determination.
So
we
are
in
the
process
of
kind
of
figuring
out
what
exactly
that
would
look
like
and
what
all
we
can.
L
We
can
fund
and
make
available
to
the
commission,
but
I
am
excited
about
it
and
I
hope
it's
something
that
commissioners
are
excited
about.
I
will
note
that
it
will
likely
only
be
open
to
non-commissioners
at
this
or
sorry
to
non-attorneys
at
this
time,
and
the
only
reason
for
that
is
because
we're
gonna
need
so
much
time
from
our
attorney
commissioners,
with
these
public
hearings
coming
up.
L
So
that's
not
a
not
a
knock
on
our
attorney
commissioners
at
all,
but
just
to
provide
an
alternate
option
for
our
non-attorneys
that
can't
participate
in
the
public
hearing
process
as
well
as
to
not
overly
tax.
Our
attorney
commissioners,
who
are
already
gonna,
have
quite
a
bit
of
time
expected
to
put
into
those
public
hearing
cases.
A
Thank
you
so
much
for
that
information
kayla.
We
always
appreciate
you
and
we
appreciate
everyone
who
provided
some
feedback
and
participated
tonight.
So
thank
you
to
everyone
with.
L
O
So
if
it's
okay
with
everyone
I'll
just
provide
a
quick
30-second
update
on
that
task
force,
we
did
meet
last
week
and,
as
you
know,
the
really
the
key
thing
we've
been
trying
to
do
is
ascertain
if
the
commission
wants
to
endorse
or
support
the
renter
opportunity
to
purchase
act,
ordinance
that
the
city
has
been
looking
at
and
really
the
question
we
have
is
you
know:
is
the
city
still
pursuing
this
since
most
of
the
individuals
that
were
championing
it
are
no
longer
on
the
city
council,
so
really,
council
person
allison
is
the
only
one
who
is
championing
it.
O
That's
still
left
we,
we
actually
decided
as
a
next
step,
to
just
try
to
reach
out
with
him
and
connect
with
him
directly
and
have
submitted
to
his
office
a
formal
request
to
meet
with
him
to
understand.
You
know
the
fate
of
that
ordinance,
so
hopefully
we'll
be
able
to
get
that
connection.
O
You
know
I
would
say
if
there
is
a
commissioner
that
has
a
direct
relationship
with
commissioner
ellison,
please,
you
know
let
me
know,
but
that's
the
status
of
the
housing
equity
task
force.
A
Thank
you,
commissioner,
lord,
for
your
update
and
thank
you
for
everyone,
who's
participating
in
helping
with
that
as
well.
Thank
you
and
just
to
let
you
know,
commissioner
shoemake
put
in
the
chat
that
she
