If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
A
A
To
start
to
start
us
off,
I
just
wanted
to
just
share
a
few
words
with
the
Commission
and
those
residents
that
are
watching.
You
know
these
are
certainly
very
emotional
and
stressful
times
for
for
all
of
us
in
the
community,
not
only
the
health
crisis,
but
our
social
justice
and
racial
justice
issues
that
have
taken
the
forefront
are
very
challenging
times
and
they
certainly
wear
on
all
of
us
in
the
community.
A
We
understand
that,
and
we
also
want
to
recognize
that
we
understand
that
this
does
play
a
heavy
toll
on
the
commissioners
who
have
the
passion
in
in
their
hearts
to
serve
on
the
Human
Rights
Commission.
So
our
hearts
go
out
to
all
the
commissioners
and
the
residents
in
Palm
Springs.
During
these
very
stressful
times,
our
meetings
were
suspended
a
few
months
back
at
the
very
beginning
of
the
koba
19
pandemic.
A
We've
continued
to
be
to
not
have
a
meeting,
but
as
we
resume
our
regular
operations,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
that
the
Commission
knows
our
city,
staff
and
and
all
of
the
residents
know
that
we
we
will
work
closely
with
city
staff
to
ensure.
However,
we
meet
in
whatever
form
that
we
meet,
that
we
will
be
practicing
proper
social
distancing
guidelines
and
we
will
not
meet
in
person
until
the
time
is
right
for
us
to
be
doing
that,
and
there
will
be
no
health
care
or
ease
or
considerations.
A
So
in
as
much
as
we've
been
very
disappointed
that
we
have
not
been
able
to
meet
as
the
Human
Rights
Commission
I
did
want
to
take
a
moment
at
the
start
of
our
meeting
to
to
give
a
shout
out
and
and
just
to
say
how.
How
personally
proud
I
have
been
to
see
the
rallies
and
the
gatherings
in
the
community
following
the
murder
of
George
Floyd
I'm,
especially
proud
to
see
the
rally
organized
by
youth
that
was
labeled
enough
is
enough
at
Ruth,
Hardy
Park,
on
June
6.
A
This
group
of
teenagers
demonstrated
incredible
leadership
in
our
community
and
they
are
known
as
the
youth
young
justice
advocates
and
I
just
would
wanted
to
start
our
meeting
today,
giving
them
a
shout-out
and
encouragement
for
their
leadership
and
raising
their
voice
in
the
community
and
Molly
did
that
they
brought
our
community
together
during
a
very
difficult
and
stressful
time,
and
it
was
a
power.
It
was
powerful
to
see
that
happen
and
to
see
it
organized
by
a
group
of
key
managers.
Female
teenagers
I'm
incredibly
proud
to
see
that
happen
here
in
our
city.

To
support
or
to
provide
management
and
coordination
for
the
Commission
to
promote
diversity
through
the
appointment
of
candidates
to
all
City
boards
and
commissions
to
proportionately
reflect
the
diversity
of
the
population
of
the
city
of
Palm
Springs.
The
Commission
in
each
committee
shall
develop
goals
and
objectives
annually
for
adoption
by
the
Commission.
The
Commission

How.
A
Moving
on
to
item
four
public
comment,
this
time
has
been
set
aside
for
the
members
of
the
public
to
address
the
Human
Rights
Commission
on
agenda
items
and
items
of
general
interest
within
the
subject
matter.
Jurisdiction
would
Commission.
Three
minutes
is
our
as
allowed
for
each
speaker.
Although
the
Commission
values
your
comments
pursuant
to
the
Brown
Act,
it
generally
cannot
take
any
action
on
items
not
listed
on
the
posted
agenda.
D
D
Petition
that
I
started
to
remove
the
statue
of
Mayor
Frank
Bogert
from
in
front
of
Palm
Springs
City
Hall,
so
this
petition
has
been
on
change.org
for
about
a
month.
Now
we
have
over
2,100
signatures.
It
is
generating
a
lot
of
comments
on
both
sides
for
and
against
to
the
City,
Council
and
I
know
that
the
City
Council
will
be
addressing
it
as
part
of
the
listening
sessions
that
they
are
starting.
This
coming
Saturday
at
11:00
a.m.
D
D
Many
people
know
people
who
many
of
you
know
people
whose
families
were
relocated
in
the
1960s.
The
California
Attorney
General
office
in
1968
issued
a
report
that
blasted
the
city's
actions
in
these
relocations.
Closing
with
Palm
Springs
ignored
that
the
residents
of
section
14
were
human
beings.
I
can
only
imagine
how
resident
whose
grandparents
were
forcibly
removed.
Relocated.
D
Excuse
me
to
other
areas
of
town
must
feel
when
going
to
City
Hall
for
services
and
seeing
a
statue
of
the
man
responsible
for
this
injustice,
so
prominently
displayed
and
celebrated
we're
facing
a
national
discussion
on
race
relations
and
how
we
can
all
be
better
and
do
better.
Societies
evolve,
opinions,
interviews,
change
and
we
become
more
sensitive
to
pain
and
hurt
of
our
fellow
humans.
D
We
cannot
change
the
events
that
occurred
60
years
ago
and
we
can
start
a
conversation
and
listen
to
each
other,
removing
the
statue,
or
rather
moving
the
statue,
won't
erase
the
history
and
the
Palm
Springs
Historical
Society
has
already
conceded
that
point.
You
know
above
the
entrance
to
the
city
council
chambers.
It
says
that
people
are
the
city.
Let's
make
each
one
of
our
residents
feel
that
that
statement
includes
them.
I
believe
it's
time
for
the
make.
D
A
No
further
comment:
we
will
move
on
to
agenda
item
5
and,
as
we
do,
that
it's
the
opportunity
for
commissioners
staff
to
offer
comments
at
the
start
of
a
meeting
I'd
like
to
welcome
our
three
new
commissioners
on
their
service
to
the
Human
Rights
Commission
we've
got
Commissioner
own
Commissioner,
Rama,
Ron
and
Commissioner
Sheppard.
All
three
are
joining
us
today
for
the
first
time
in
their
term
with
the
Commission
and
I.
A
Our
role
is
the
same
today
as
it
was
28
years
ago.
It
is
to
promote
respect
for
the
rights
and
dignity
of
everyone
in
Palm
Springs
and
to
work
with
others
to
help
build
communities
that
are
fair
and
inclusive.
This
is
the
backbone
of
our
work
as
commissioners
on
the
Human
Rights
Commission.
This
is
the
work
that
the
three
of
you
will
now
be
joining
and
undertaking
as
commissioners,
with
the
Human
Rights
Commission
in
the
city
of
Palm
Springs.
A
So
I'd
like
to
invite
each
of
you
to
just
give
us
a
62nd
introduction
of
yourself
and
60
seconds
is
really
60
seconds.
So
just
give
us
a
brief
introduction
of
yourself,
so
we
can
start
the
meeting
off
with
a
little
more
information
about.
You
will
certainly
learn
more
about
each
other
as
as
time
goes
on,
and
we
will
have
an
onboarding
process
specifically
for
the
three
of
you.
So
we
can
bring
you
up
to
speed
as
to
what
the
process
of
serving
as
a
commissioner
is
all
about.
C
Hello:
everyone
I'm,
a
relatively
new
resident
of
Palm
Springs
I,
moved
here
late
last
year
after
spending
about
ten
years
in
Hong
Kong
in
Tokyo,
I
worked
for
I
did
PR
for
an
international
art
gallery
there
and
I
also
ran
the
Hong
Kong
Human
Rights
art
burke's
price.
For
a
few
years
now,
I'm
a
judge
I'm
most
interested
in
migrant
workers.
Rights.
Hong
Kong
has
a
lot
of
that.
G
Am
so
sorry,
my
intention
was
to
be
home
today
to
do
this
on
my
own
computer,
but
I
didn't
make
it
so
I'm
having
to
punt
anyway
delighted
to
join
all
of
you
on
Palm
Springs,
Human,
Rights,
Commission
I,
just
recently
retired
after
a
35-year
career
as
a
director
of
human
resources,
primarily
in
the
hospitality
industry.
The
hospitality
industry
got
me
familiar
with
low-wage
work
earners
and
many
of
the
challenges
and
problems
that
come
along
in
their
lives.
G
E
Good
afternoon
fellow
commissioners,
I'm
so
proud
to
be,
this
is
exciting.
This
is
the
first
together
and
Rory
in
a
new
era
with
the
zum-zum
is
actually
providing
this
new
access,
which
I'm
really
excited
about
I,
was
born
and
raised
in
Palm,
Springs
and
I
went
away
for
too
many
years
came
back
after
living
in
New
York
City
for
20
years.
I'm
currently
involved
will
vary
a
lot
of
different
levels.
E
Here
in
my
neighborhood
and
veterans
tract
near
doing
Park,
we
founded
an
organization
to
look
at
the
civic
engagement
of
Filipinos
and
we're
very
much
interested
since
the
the
decision
of
Palm
Springs
last
year.
I
also
serve
on
the
census
committee,
which
I'm
really
excited
about.
We
had
a
first
census
Caravan
last
weeks,
which
was
really
exciting
and
I'm
just
very
proud
to
be
serving
on
human
rights.
It's
a
commission
that
is
I'm
still
learning
more
about
and
I
think
a
lot
of
our
residents
are
and
I'm
proud
to
be
able
to.
E
A
A
You
know
Commissioner
Ames,
for
the
work
that
he
put
in
to
you,
know
doing
some
research
and
and
really
identifying
the
issue
and
encourage
everyone
that
this
is.
What
we
want
to
continue
to
do
is
is
identify
the
challenges
and
issues
that
are
in
our
community
and
then
to
identify
ways
where
we
can.
We
can
bring
solution
to
a
issue
or
problem
so
kudos
to
Commissioner
Eames
for
your
work
on
that.
Thank
you.
A
A
B
A
D
A
Opposition
minutes
are
accepted
as
presented
items.
Seven
items
for
discussion
at
this
point.
The
items
for
discussion-
oh
you
know,
I'm
sorry,
I
didn't
make
the
round
for
Commissioner
staff
comments.
I
I
commented
and
made
it.
Let
anybody
else
so
we'll
go
back
to
item
number.
Five
will
go
to
Vice
Chair
Chappell.
All.
A
It's
and
we
had
the
new
commissioners
introduced
themself
already
so
now
we
can
move
to
item
7.
This
is
the
point
in
time
in
our
meeting
where
the
commissioners
who
are
heading
at
particular
committees
subcommittees,
are
able
to
bring
reports
to
the
full
commission
and
we
start
off
with
7a
the
Palm
Springs
Police
Department
LGBT
Outreach
Committee
of
which
I
serve
on
as
the
liaison
for
the
Human
Rights
Commission.
A
A
The
several
walls
of
the
building
had
been
spray-painted
with
graffiti
portion
of
that
graffiti
was
directed
towards
the
LGBT
community
and
the
after
investigation,
the
suspect
or
the
the
person
who
was
being
investigated
was
arrested
for
felony
vandalism,
a
misdemeanor
hate
crime,
misdemeanor
possession
of
an
unloaded,
firearm
and
misdemeanor
possession
of
a
concealed
dagger.
So.
A
During
these
times,
we
would
think
that
we
would
see
a
lot
more
reporting
of
hate
crimes
and
eight-eight
incidences,
so
I
guess
on
one
hand
it's
were
fortunate
in
our
city
that
we're
not
seeing
an
uptick
in
and
reporting
statistics.
So
that's
the
the
update
from
the
Palm
Springs
Police
Department
outreach
committees.
A
We
don't
have
anybody
assigned
a
master
calendar.
Does
there
any
any
comment
on
the
master
calendar
I
know
we're
getting
back
into
the
swing
of
things,
so
we
really
haven't
been
following
our
calendar
and
for
the
new
commissioners
we
will
share
during
the
onboarding
process.
This
may
be
something
that
one
of
you
will
like
to
take
the
leadership
on
and
and
and
help
oversee
the
calendar,
which
also
includes
our
participation
and
community
events
and
including
parades
Serpa.
A
D
So
we
were
actually
almost
finalizing
the
budget
than
the
pandemic
happened,
and
so
you
know
what
we
had
to
deal
with:
there's
1123
dollars
in
96
cents.
That
was
a
result
of
a
Legacy
Project.
That
was
that
we
did
in
the
past
so
that
budget
that
we
were
working
on
it
hasn't
been
approved
and
I
feel
like
at
this
point
based
off
current
real-world
conditions
we
should
re-evaluate
maybe
where
the
Commission
is
going
financially
and
where
we
want
to
spend
some
money
or
for
support
some
initiatives.
A
F
D
A
Don't
you
think
you're
gonna
get
all
of
them,
this
easy,
so
I
we
have
there.
We
have
time
that
we
don't
need
to
push
on
this
today.
You
know
for
the
new
commissioners.
Through
most
of
history,
the
Commission
budget
has
been
$2,000
a
year.
I
believe
that's
what
was
submitted
as
a
request
for
the
2021
cycle.
I'm
J
will
confirm
with
us
what
was
approved
by
City
Council
and
we'll
have
that
for
our
next
meeting.
So
you
can
see
the
budget,
it's
very
simple.
It's
very
basic
two
thousand
dollars
doesn't
go
very
far
at
all.
A
You
know
it
covers
our
annual
awards
program.
It
includes
insurance
for
the
Commission
that
we
have
a
few
hundred
dollars
on
promotional
items.
So
there's
there's
not
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
money.
You
did
not
join
a
commission
that
has
a
big
budget.
That
is,
is
a
big
spending
budget.
Big
spending
commission,
but
$2,000,
is
what
it
has
been
for
many
many
many
years
and
we'll
get
that
update
next
week.
So
we
could
share
with
everyone
as
we
go
forward
and.
A
You
got
to
give
credit
to
commissioner
Ames
for
trying
to
reel
you
in
to
serve
on
the
Finance
Committee
I.
Think
what
we'll
do
is
we'll
give
you
an
introduction
to
what
all
the
subcommittee's
are
and
then
we
can
see
where
your
areas
of
interest
are
and
then
at
that
time
then
you
can.
Let
us
know
what
may
have
greater
appeal
to
you
and
then,
after
you
make
those
selections,
our
hope
would
be
that
we
will
filled
any
vacancies
that
might
currently
exist
on
any
of
the
subcommittee's.
Does
that
sound
like
a
plan?
Yes,.
G
A
B
Missioner
Randolph
has
has
chosen
to
go
on
and
that
was
kind
of
her
baby.
There
I
don't
know
if
we'll
go
on
with
a
film
screening
in
the
way
that
we
did.
We
have
done
two
film
screenings
in
the
past.
They
were
on
different
platforms.
One
was
at
the
pumps
this
spring
as
a
cultural
center,
and
one
was
at
the
library,
and
we
were
able
to
get
a
terrific
film,
then
on
on
homelessness.
B
B
I
Lot
of
possibilities
and
nici,
commissioner
randolph
did
leave
us
with
some
heroine
and
myself
with
civil
options
and
some
very
weird
looking
forward
to
continuing
with
that
and
you're
right.
The
big
question
is:
when
are
we
gonna?
Have
you
know
the
opportunity
to
gather
people
in
in
the
numbers
that
we
would
need
in
order
to
get
a
return
on
our
money
and
to
make
a
statement
right.
I
B
I
B
B
A
Okay,
we
will
invite
you
to
bring
another
update.
You
know
what
a
forward
plan
would
be
in
the
scope
in
nineteen
times.
Also
that
certainly
changed
the
fundamental
idea
of
bringing
the
community
together
through
education
with
a
film
of
any
topic,
so
that
that
that
outreach
would
have
to
be
done
via
virtual
type
of
an
event,
certainly
going
well
into
early
2021
is
what
I
think
our
expectation
can
be
so
we'll
look
forward
to
an
updated
report
from
the
subcommittee.
There
next
item
is
the
community
service
awards.
A
H
H
H
Not
too
much
on
that
right
now,
either
I
keep
monitoring
or
checking
the
Department
of
Veterans,
Affairs
and
they've.
Taken
a
step
to
was
streamline
the
screening
of
veterans
doing
the
for
medical
attention
during
the
corona
virus
pandemic.
They
they
say
are
they
announced
this
I
guess
end
of
June
that
what
they
plan
to
do
is
to
offer
veterans
a
a
tool
that
they
could
screen
or
early
on
before
they
go
input
for
a
type
of
observation
or
treatment
that
would
make
I
guess
supposedly
streamlined.
H
They
can
do
that
by
texting
their
the
word
screen,
or
also
going
on
the
VA
website
to
get
more
information,
but
they
that's
one
of
the
things
that
they
really
tried
to
stress.
Now.
They
want
to
help
the
veterans
out
on
that
because,
as
you
know,
the
veterans
sometimes
complain
about
the
slow
service
at
the
hospitals.
That's
all
I
have
right
now.
A
A
F
B
Michener's,
it's
been
about
two
and
a
half
years.
I
might
be
a
little
off
on
that
since
we've
had
two
student
commissioners,
their
role
is
to
bring
things
back
to
us
that
are
going
on
in
these
school
communities
that
are
activities
that
are
happening
where
they
social
support,
the
growth
of
human
rights
or
questions
that
are
out
there.
We've
tried
a
couple
of
different
ways
to
get
ourselves
out
there,
so
that
the
schools
would
be
aware
that
we
were
there.
B
I
still
have
one
applicant
that
I
I
continue
to
check
back
to
every
once
in
awhile,
to
see,
if
they're
ready
to
apply
the
position.
If
the
positions
are
too
and
they
can
be
from
a
middle
school
student
or
a
high
school
student
that
attends
a
Palm
Springs
school.
So
if
you
know
anybody
who
would
like
to
apply
the
application
is
on
our
website.
B
In
the
past
it
was
nice
to
have
student
reps
because
they
bring
us
their
concerns
and
they
bring
us
the
cool
things
that
we
don't
hear
about,
that
are
happening
in
the
schools
and
in
the
clubs
and
like
Ron
had
talked
about.
I
mean
we've
got
in
our
Palm
Springs
community
that
are
just
gearing
up
and
leading
marches
and
educational
gathering,
so
I
do
I
feel
like
with
those
two
positions
not
being
filled,
that
it
leaves
us
with
a
void.
E
E
I
one
item
just
talked
about
in
regards
to
representation,
I'm,
really
I
hope
we
could
look
at
not
just
having
representatives
I
think
if
they're
going
to
be
playing
and
they're
going
to
be
serving,
they
should
have
a
vote
and
they
should
have
a
title.
That's
just
my
first.
This
is
my
first
opinion
about
they're,
not
just
for
you
know,
cool
things,
a.
B
Missioner,
you
are
on
track.
We
did
change
the
application
process
a
couple
years
ago,
which
could
be
how
come
we
haven't,
had
build
chairs
to
have
expectations
that
they
not
just
be
somebody
sitting
in
a
chair
that
when
we
go
around
the
room-
and
we
ask
what's
going
on
and
there's
nothing
to
tell
us
and
and
that
we
would
expect
them
to
be
me
filming's,
and
to
take
an
act
and
to
be
with
us
we're
out
in
the
community
we've
gone.
B
B
A
A
F
A
So
it's
the
commissioner
honor
and
the
the
point
is,
is
taken.
It's
been
a
very
loud
point
that
has
been
brought
to
the
City
Council,
so
we
will
await
future
guidance
to
come
from
Council,
but
in
the
meantime
we
have
a
great
student
who
is
an
exceptional
leader
at
Palm,
Springs,
High
School,
and
to
have
her
joining
us.
Is
it's
going
to
be
just
a
wonderful
opportunity
to
elevate
the
voice
of
youth
in
our
community?
A
E
A
A
Last
month,
when
we
had
a
world
day
that
was
recognized,
I
was
supposed
to
drop.
My
notes
and
I
forgot
my
notes
in
the
printer
today,
I
made
sure
I
had
the
notes,
so
I
could
speak
to
it.
You
know
during
last,
the
last
term
of
the
Commission
and
the
Commission
voted
to
acknowledge
certain
international
days
of
importance.
You
know
through
the
year
and
July
is
recognized
as
the
world
day
against
trafficking
in
persons
all
day
is
recognized
on
July
30th,
on
this
world
day
against
trafficking
in
persons.
A
A
Human
trafficking
is
a
crime
that
exploits
women,
children
and
men
for
numerous
purposes,
including
forced
labor
and
sex.
Since
2003,
the
UN
Office
on
Drugs
and
Crime
has
collected
information
on
about
twelve
hundred
and
twenty
five
thousand
victims
of
trafficking
detected
worldwide
globally
countries
are
detecting
and
reporting
more
victims
and
are
convicting
more
traffickers.
This
can
be
the
result
of
increased
capacity
to
identify
victims,
and/or
an
increased
number
of
trafficked
victims.
A
Every
country
in
the
world
is
affected
by
human
trafficking,
whether
as
the
country
of
origin,
transit
or
destination
for
victims
traffickers
the
world
over
continue
to
target
women
and
girls.
The
vast
majority
of
detected
victims
of
trafficking
for
sexual
exploitation
and
35%
of
those
trafficked
for
fourth
labor
are
female.
A
Conflict
further
exacerbates
vulnerabilities
with
armed
groups,
exploiting
civilians
and
traffickers
targeting
forcibly
displaced
people.
Data
shows
that
trafficking
happens
all
around
us
as
the
share
of
persons
traffic
within
their
own
country
has
doubled
in
recent
years
to
58%
of
all
detected
victims.
According
to
the
2018
global
report
from
the
UN.
A
So
the
International
days
are
occasions
to
educate
the
public
on
issues
of
concern
to
mobilize
political
will
and
resources
to
address
global
problems
and
to
celebrate
and
reinforce
achievements
of
humanity.
The
existence
of
these
international
days
predates
the
establishment
of
the
United
Nations,
but
the
United
Nations
has
embraced
them
as
a
powerful
advocacy
tool.
So
that
is
my
update
for
the
Commission
and
those
watching
on
July
30th
the
world
day
against
human
trafficking,
and
don't
be
for
two
seconds
to
think
that
human
trafficking
doesn't
occur
in
Coachella
Valley.
D
A
I
Among
us,
in
terms
of
people
that
would
like
to
participate
in
training
in
and
ultimately
participate
in
the
effort,
and
we
can
explain
further
with
you
know
what
the
patience
might
be-
the
need
might
be,
but
I
I'm
gonna,
guess
that
the
training
is
probably
on
hold
everywhere
with
everything
else.
But
definitely
the
interest
is
still
there
and
more
than.
A
The
second
bullet
point
that
was
read
for
us
today:
I'm
on
the
goals
of
the
Commission
to
investigate
and
mediate
discrimination
of
groups
of
individuals
or
individuals
in
recent
years,
going
back
four
or
five
years,
I
think
we've
had
some
instances
a
mediation
brought
to
the
Commission
and
those
instances
have
all
fallen
back
on
to
other
jurisdictions
that
fall
outside
of
the
human
rights.
Commission's
scope
of
work
generally
fair
health,
fair
housing
is,
is
where
those
issues
have
been
resolved.
A
So
we
have
not
been
asked
to
be
in
a
position
of
you
know,
serving
in
a
mediated
capacity,
which
has
been
fortunate
for
us,
because
our
last
Commissioner
that
is
certified
mediator
went
off
the
commission
three
years
ago,
or
maybe
maybe
a
little
more,
and
we
have
not
gone
through
a
new
cycle
of
certified
mediators
with
our
commissioners.
So
we
can
provide
that
source
or
be
a
resource
if
we
are
asked
to
serve
in
that
capacity.
A
A
B
A
So
we
haven't
had
a
formal
all
day
program
for
several
years
and
that's
what
Vice
Chair
Chappell
is
pointing
out
this
retreat
item
and
I
think
this
is
with
so
many
new
commissioners,
three
cycling
on
and
then
most
recently
with
Commissioner
Eames
and
Commissioner
flood.
You
know
this
would
be
a
good
time
for
us
to
have
a
session
where
I
zoom
and
and
and
we
can
walk
through
and
spend
a
few
hours
together
to
really
go
through.
A
B
And
that
that
would
be
you
and
I
and
I
just
I
just
want
to
say
that
typically,
the
retreats
you
used
to
be
a
full
day
and
we
found
that
people
really
were
too
busy.
Then
we
kind
of
stepped
away
from
from
it,
and
we
found
that
people
who
came
on
Commissioner
of
flood
and
Commissioner
Eames
were
kind
of
putting
to
the
pool
and
didn't
have
any
instruction,
and
it
occurred
to
us
that
it's
important
that
we
support
people
coming
on,
so
that
they
know
what
they're
charged
to
I.
B
Do
they
don't
feel
like
they
aren't
being
effective,
and
then
they
go
on
the
the
Commission
wants
you
here.
We
want
you
to
know
what
it
is
that
you're
charged
to
undo.
You
can
contact
one
or
two
of
us
with
questions.
We
can't
go
any
larger
than
that
or
I'm
it's
a
quorum,
but
it
it's
important
that
you
know
that
the
Commission
is
thrilled
to
have
you
here
and
that
you
won't
know
exactly
what
this
entails
for
a
bit.
B
F
The
chat
feature
in
zoom
I,
just
posted
a
link
to
the
information
on
the
city
council's
listening
session
on
policing,
racism,
discrimination
and
other
topics
along
those
lines.
We
all
know,
there's
been
a
lot
of,
there's
been
a
lot
going
on
in
various
cities
throughout
the
country
and
I
believe
the
council
wants
to
hear
from
its
presidents
and
Human
Rights
Commission
here
about
concerns
that
you
may
have
in
regards
to
city
operations
and
any
ideas
that
you
can
contribute
towards.
F
Having
being
able
to
address
these
issues
for
the
city
of
Palm
Springs,
the
listening
session
will
be
this
Saturday
July
18th
at
11:00
a.m.
and
the
information
again
that
I
pasted
it
into
the
chat
box.
Has
the
information
you
would
need
for
logging
in
and
and
participating
with
the
council
on
that
discussion
and.
B
F
A
Now
we
are
at
item
7c,
topical
and
newsworthy
items.
This
is
an
opportunity
for
commissioners
to
just
share
items
of
general
interests
with
the
Commission
and
the
community.
Normally
normally
it
would
be
easy
go
around
the
table,
but
I've
got
the
Partridge
Family
squares.
So
when
the
lower-left
is
Commissioner,
Rama,
Rama
any
topical
or
newsworthy
items,
you
would
like
to
share
with
us
a
lot
of
times.
This
is
events
that
are
coming
up
or
items
of
significance
that
you're
aware
of
certain
even
happenings
in
the
community
that
you
just
want
to
be.
E
Think
it
was
great
to
hear
from
David
winder
at
the
beginning,
I
think
that's
one
of
the
most
topical
issues
that's
happening
within
our
city.
Black
lives
matter
is
obviously
one
of
the
biggest
things.
That's
happened
in
the
past
few
months
and
I
want
to.
Please
give
major
shout
out
to
teacher
to
chair
to
heart
for
being
so
open
to
providing
our
webpage
for
the
Human
Rights
Commission
to
provide
access
for
people
who
want
to
report
any
anti-asian
discrimination
and
hate
crimes.
I
think
that
was
that
was
something
you
know.
E
I
mean
I'm,
not
sure
if
everyone
knew
that,
but
that
was
something
that
did
happen
while
we
were
in
in
recess
or
we
weren't
meeting,
but
I
do
want
to.
You
know
make
a
point
of
that
that
that's
something
you
know
that
was
responsive
to
covent
the
pandemic
and,
of
course,
to
racial
and
social
justice
as
well
and
I'm,
very,
very
proud
of
that
as
well.
So
thank
you,
chair
heart.
G
A
G
Very
good
I
just
think
we
have
a
unique
opportunity
in
our
country
right
now.
People's
minds
and
hearts
seem
to
be
open
to
change
as
much
as
I've.
Seen
in
my
lifetime
and
I
think
we
need
to
do
everything
we
can
to
support
our
City
Council
and
our
our
community
in
making
some
of
the
changes
that
have
come
to
light,
and
particularly
with
the
section
14
issues.
H
I
G
A
C
B
B
F
Agendas
have
the
updated
information
for
participating
via
zoom
of
email
messages
to
the
clerk
and
submitting
what
what
I
think
is
do
they
were
talking
about
at
the
last
council
meeting
are
just
voicemail
messages
or
videos
that
can
be
played
during
the
meeting,
so
they
don't
have
to
be
present
for
the
meeting,
but
they
can
submit
video
and
voice
messages.
Okay,.
F
B
F
A
F
Yes,
mr.
chair
at
this
time,
it
helps
for
scheduling
the
next
meeting
confirming
being
dark
in
August,
but
we
can
definitely
make
changes
as
may
be
needed
and
if
anything
needs
to
be
rescheduled,
it's
obviously
up
to
the
Commission
to
hold
additional
meetings.
But
this
would
be
the
regular
meetings
right.
A
So
I
would
like
to
suggest
this
is
it.
This
is
a
normal
schedule
for
the
Commission
for
the
year,
so
nothing
out
of
the
ordinary
other
than
we're
not
going
to
be
meeting
in
person.
For
many
of
these
dates
and
and
the
August
is
we
typically
match
City
Council's
agenda,
so
City
Council
is
dark
in
August.
A
D
F
No
problem
mr.
chair,
as
may,
have
discussed
earlier
in
the
meeting
Commissioner
Randolph
term,
has
come
to
an
end
and
commissioner
Randolph
has
decided
not
to
continue
in
that
capacity.
So
the
city
clerk
is
in
the
process
of
recruiting
new
commissioners
for
the
entire
city,
and
so
for
this
one
opening
I've
been
informed
that
they
have
four
applications,
but
there's
definitely
still
an
opportunity
to
submit
for
anyone
who
might
be
interested.
The
application
is
online
is
available
for
anyone
else
to
know.
Fill
in
that
information.
G
Okay,
I'm
just
curious
what
the
process
is
with
a
man's
petition
that
he
presented
to
us.
A
So
we
can
bring
bring
forward
an
agenda
item
to
discuss
the
petition.
That
is,
you
know
the
existing
petition
in
the
community.
That
creates
the
opportunity
for
us
to
have
that
discussion
within
the
Commission.
So
we
can
certainly
add
that
in
for
an
agenda
item
on
the
next
meeting,
thank
you
from
that
discussion.
Action
can
come,
so
you
know
that's
why
we
get
it
on
the
agenda.
Then
we
can
talk
about
it
and
then
the
Commission
can
decide
what
what
what
direction
they
would
like
to
take.
You
know
with
a
particular
item.
B
C
Don't
know
if
this
is
the
proper
moment
to
ask
about
this,
but
I
know
that
the
Arts
Commission
has
a
kind
of
social
media
and
they're
on
Instagram
and
Facebook,
and
things
like
that.
But
I
don't
think
that
the
Human
Rights
Commission
at
one
I,
don't
know
if
that's
been
discussed
in
the
past.
If
there's,
maybe
something
next
time
to
discuss
it,
I
don't
know.
F
D
F
A
Perhaps
the
the
we
can
invite
Amy
to
the
September
meeting
to
just
brief
us
on
what
guideline
and
procedures
are
in
place
for
Commission's
to
do
social
media
outreach
in
just
outreach
in
general
when
it
comes
to
media?
That
represents
the
city.
Is
that
something
J
that
you
think
we
could
invite
her
to
the
September
meeting
and
she
can
just
we.
F
We
can
invite
her
on
I'm,
not
sure
she's
the
keeper
of
the
policy
and
would
be
able
to
provide
all
that
guidance.
Typically
there's
some
different
opinions
on
how
each
Commission
should
engage
in
social
media,
so
I'm
happy
to
bring
her
on
in
you
know.
Maybe
we
could
convince
the
city
manager
to
participate,
Oh
we'll
try.
A
F
B
And
and
Commission
add
a
heart
to
heart,
a
heart,
a
heart,
a
not
to
change
the
subject.
Commissioner
Owen
I
think
that
is
a
great
question
again.
You
can
look
around
and
look
at
her
faces
and
we
go
mm-hmm
because
we've
we've
talked
about
it
now
that
we
can't
keep
talking
about
it,
but
I,
wonder
and
I
can't
remember
her
name,
but
I
see
her
on
the
news
every
once
in
a
while
she's
the
Palm
Springs
historian.
B
We
had
her
at
a
meeting
about
three
or
four
years
ago
who
came
in
she
spent
about
20
minutes.
She
took
us
through
the
whole
section.
14
thing
showed
us
a
brief
video.
It
was
very
educational
and
and
because
I
didn't
grow
up
here.
I
wasn't
aware,
but
I
do
think
that
it
would
be
a
good
time
to
have
her
come
back
and
J.
You
probably
know
her
name
she's.
The
historian
person,
that
is.
B
E
B
Also
hear
hear
hearing
Commissioner,
Rama
Ron's
reminder
that
the
Asian
community
is
being
challenged
at
this
time
and
having
AI
Asian
grandson
I
believe
that
in
future
it
could
be
good
to
look
into
something
like
that
too,
because
we
haven't
done
anything
like
but
like
that,
and
in
these
times
we
have
to
think
about
all
of
the
parties
being
affected.
I,
don't
know
what
that
would
look
like
just.
E
You
very
responsive
it
sure
Thank
You,
vice
chair,
I'm
glad
you
brought
that
up
and
I
like
that.
You
brought
up
the
Historic
Society
or
historian
as
well.
I
think
it'd
be
great
to
bring
in
the
stories
that
have
not
been
heard
and
I
think
you
said
that
you
know
this
story.
If
this
dork
consulted
so
many
times
say
we
don't
want
to
do
the
same
story.
I
think
we
need
to
hear
the
stories
that
we
haven't
been
heard
and
I
think
that's
what
you're
talking
about.
B
And-
and
that
could
be
commissioners
if
we
can
think
about
that
in
the
next
month
and
think
about
the
topics
that
perhaps
this
is
our
year
of
really
getting
those
topics
out
there
and
what
we've
talked
about
in
these
past
Skupin
cup
link
up
and
colleague
a
couple
of
years
is
how
do
we
educate
people?
We
have
a
platform
here,
of
course,
keeping
with
supporting
our
canceled,
because
that's
our
purpose,
but
how
can
we
help
them
and
and
and
keep
working
towards
being
a
benefit
with
a
purpose
to
our
community.
A
A
Right,
I,
don't
have
an
announcement,
but
I
in
closing
I
want
to
give
encouragement
to
our
new
commissioners
and
we
we
know
that
you're
full
of
promise
and
hope
in
what
we
can
achieve
by
your
service
on
the
Commission
I
ask
for
patience
it.
It
takes
time
and
it
takes
more
time
during
kovat
and
the
way
that
we
have
to
operate
now
during
kovat.
A
A
We
want
you
to
start
off
with
a
good
understanding
of
our
roles
and-
and
you
know
sometimes
what
may
appear
it
could
be-
a
daunting
task
and
other
times
it
can
be
very,
very
straighting,
because
the
wheels
of
bureaucracy
and
government
may
not
necessarily
turn
at
the
speed
that
we
would
want
them
to
turn.
So
we
can
accomplish
those
dreams
and
hopes
that
you've
ring
to
the
table.
I,
don't
want
you
to
get
discouraged
so
I
ask
you
to
to
be
patient
as
we
start.
This
is
your
very
first
meeting.
A
We
traditionally
we've
gotten
away
from
presenting
the
three
and
a
half
inch
binder.
That
has
all
the
information
for
the
commissioners,
but
there's
a
thumb
drive
had
the
new
commissioners.
Have
you
received
the
thumb
drive
with
all
your
commission
background,
so
J?
If
we
can
get
those
thumb
drives,
are
the
thumb
drives
for
each
of
the
new
commissioners
and
then
new
commissioners?
A
As
you
get,
your
thumb
drive,
there's
going
to
be
some
many
hours
of
enjoyable
reading
on
your
part
that
we'll
be
able
to
give
you
a
much
broader
perspective
on
on
what
the
Commission
is
all
about,
where
we've
come
from
and
and
what
our,
what
our
guidelines
and
parameters
are.
So
we
would
ask
that
you
get
the
thumb
drive
and
you
do
take
the
time
to
explore.
A
You
know
the
you
know
the
the
information,
that's
on
the
drive
for
you,
okay
and
I-
think
that's
it.
So
having
no
other
items
that
we
need
to
bring
forward
to
our
next
meeting
or
announcements
for
today,
I
will
the
Commission
will
adjourn
to
an
adjourned.
Regular
meeting,
Monday,
