Vice -Chair Brisbois then took up this item on the Agenda (Item #7) originally placed later on the agenda, asking if the Commission had any comments or changes to the Strategic Plan. Some Commissioners expressed confusion as to the Plan's format. Since some members of the Commission had not received their meeting packets until that day, Brisbois recommended this item be discussed at the March HRC meeting. Program Planning Committee Committee Chair Doneen stated the Program Planning Committee had met with Ariella Tilsen (facilitator for the Community Dialogues on Violence), Megan Dushin, and others. She indicated the City had received the Meadowlark grant money and that planning had begun for two community dialogues tentatively scheduled at the end of April and early May. Doneen said the community at large would be invited to these evening dialogues, and various stakeholders were also being invited to take part in planning these Dialogues, including representatives from the Roseville Police Department and the Roseville School District. She added that representatives from the community of mental health providers were also being sought to be added to the planning group, the Design Team. Doneen stressed that the intent was not to invite "talking heads" or experts to address Dialogue participants, but rather to have a community conversation with participants and stakeholders. Hopefully from these dialogues some kind of future plan or actions would naturally evolve, reinforcing a sense of community or neighborhood connectivity. Ms. Curti stated the tentative dates selected for the community dialogues were April 30 and May 14 from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. Commissioner Doneen asked if the Program Planning Committee should go from four members to three. She indicated if this change were made it would eliminate the notification process. She explained the Dialogue planning group was currently meeting at 8:00 a.m. on Tuesdays and would be doing so for the next three months. She stated that she and Chair Grefenberg were serving on the Design Team-at this time. Commissioner Thao said she was no longer available for day meetings. Commissioner Singleton indicated he was willing to serve on the Program Planning Committee until May. Ms. Curti stated the next planning meeting of the Design Team would be held on March 4 at 3:30 p.m. Outreach Committee Vice -Chair Brisbois commented the Outreach Committee met on January 26 and discussed goals for the coming year, noting that the Committee questioned whether there were more effective ways to reach the Community. She added that it did not appear that the Committee had anything shockingly- different than the strategic goals outlined in the new Strategic Plan. G
