Regular City Council Meeting Monday, July 8, 2019 Page 20 Mayor Roe asked if it made sense to charge the Working Group, depending on what the next steps are, determining some potential measures of success and rec- ommending those back. The Council agreed. Mr. Trudgeon reviewed the Goal: Relationships between the City and leaders in communities of color are developed, and maintained, noting the addition of two new Measures of Success Number of persons of color volunteering with City and Number of applicants of color applying for and being appointed to City Commis- sions. Councilmember Laliberte thought these are good measures of success but one that might be missing is more so then how many are being interviewed or appointing but what is the City doing to put new job information out into places where peo- ple are going to see it. She asked if the City is going to be measuring themselves on where and how the recruitment is being done. Mr. Trudgeon was not sure if there was discussion on that previously and was not that specific as to where the advertisement is being done because it might be more than just advertising like meetings and discussion. Councilmember Laliberte thought that is where the "how and where" came into play. It may be broader than just where the job is being placed. Councilmember Etten agreed that the Council wants to be thinking about that but under the Measures of Success, the measure is "is the City having more people of color and more under-represented being interviewed and placed on Commis- sions." That is something that can be measured. Mr. Trudgeon reviewed the goal "A toolkit of best practices for engagement and outreach is developed and staff is trained on how to use it and noted changes un- der Commissions: All City Commissions; and under 2020 and Beyond Edu- cate/Inform all Commissions of best practices. Mayor Roe asked if under 2020 and Beyond to add "ongoing education" because there should be something put in place to have that taking place all of the time and maybe part of all new Commissioner training. Mr. Trudgeon reviewed the third Strategic Priority, "Housing" with the Council and under Strategic Initiative added "Housing is Available in Roseville to Meet All Identified Needs". He noted the change made by the Council earlier in the meeting and Under Measures of Success he added Progress is made towards add- ing the prioritized housing unit types.
