Human Rights, Inclusion and Engagement Commission Minutes <br />December 19, 2018 – Draft Minutes <br />Page 11of 14 <br />449 <br />450 Ms. Olson thought the Commission needs to go back and review previous notes and <br />451 minutes because she thought that will give some answers to questions being posed. <br />452 She noted she will dig up some reports and minutes and send out to the Commission. <br />453 <br />454 Vice Chair Peterson thought there was not enough time to devote to this project at <br />455 each meeting to get into all of the details that are needed. She thought this was <br />456 challenging for the time commitment. <br />457 <br />458 Commissioner Bolinger thought the Commission could wear name tags as a way of <br />459 identifying themselves to the community when going to events. <br />460 <br />461 Commissioner Djevi thought the most important thing is to find out how to meet <br />462 people and hopefully have the person join the cause. He thought having a name tag <br />463 or having some type of ID as being a part of the Commission is one way,but he did <br />464 not think it was the most important way. <br />465 <br />466 Ms. Olson wondered if it will be worthwhile as going through this to talk about what <br />467 the goal is and why the City is doing this, to put together talking point or ideas on <br />468 how to start a conversation with people. She indicated she could put together a <br />469 document of Commission ideas for talking topics. <br />470 <br />471 The Commission liked the idea of Ms. Olson putting together a document for <br />472 community talking points. <br />473 <br />474 Vice Chair Peterson stated at the January meeting the Commission should talk about <br />475 identifying a purpose, goal and reason for what the Commission is doing. The <br />476 Commission will be part of the group getting information from the City and should <br />477 document ways to start conversations with the communities and track who the <br />478 Commissioners’ are talking to, what is the topic and what is the outcome of the <br />479 discussion. <br />480 <br />481 Ms. Olson thought the Commission could add a document to Google Docs about who <br />482 each Commissioner talked to and the topic. <br />483 <br />484 Commissioner Eck thought that would be a good document to have. <br />485 <br />486 c. Essay Contest Rubric <br />487 Assistant City Manager Olson reviewed the essay contest information with the <br />488 Commission and stated details of the 2019 Essay Contest have been sent to local <br />489 school districts with a deadline of January 30, 2019. <br />490 <br />491 Ms. Olson reviewed the essay question with the Commission. <br />492 <br />493 She indicated the Commission should review a draft rubric for scoring the essays. <br /> <br />
