Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday,January 28,2019 <br /> Page 3 <br /> Commissioner Djevi stated the he did look at the proposed language and thought <br /> it was a great addition, and he did not see anything negative. He stated it is al- <br /> ways good to acknowledge positive things that have and are being done. <br /> Commissioner Peterson agreed this was a good addition to the proclamation. She <br /> stated the Commission would appreciate having input earlier than later and they <br /> have been working very hard on these proclamations. She noted the January <br /> HRIEC meeting was cancelled. Otherwise, the Commission would have looked <br /> at this addition at that time. <br /> Councilmember Groff asked if either of the Commissioners worked on this proc- <br /> lamation. <br /> Commissioner Djevi indicated he worked on this proclamation. <br /> Mayor Roe stated from the Council's perspective, each Councilmember has a <br /> packet with the proclamation drafts presented in the autumn. He wondered if it <br /> made sense to some feedback from the Council on the drafts as the proclamations <br /> exist without further changes from the Commission or should there be some sort <br /> of process for the Commission to do more work on them and then bring those <br /> back. <br /> Assistant City Manager Rebecca Olsen stated in February, the HRIEC will be re- <br /> viewing the requests of changes that the Council asked for. She was anticipating <br /> the Commission to finish up their work at that time so before formally bringing <br /> the changes to the Council, those changes could be shared with the Council ahead <br /> of a Council meeting for changes, if that is acceptable. <br /> Mayor Roe asked if it could be a two-meeting process for the Council to get the <br /> changes, the ability to weigh in and then the Commission has another chance to <br /> look at those questions from the Council at the HRIEC March meeting before <br /> more proclamations come up. <br /> Ms. Olsen believed Women's History Month will be coming up in March and <br /> might come forward alone. But, after the February HRIEC meeting, staff can <br /> send out all of the changes for.Council review to get feedback. <br /> Councilmember Etten stated he would be in favor of that process. <br /> Roll Call <br /> Ayes: Willmus, Etten, Groff and Roe. <br /> Nays: None. <br /> Mayor Roe read the Black History Month Proclamation. <br />
