Larmore suggested going to the local schools and inviting students to come to a meeting. This way, the Commission could find out if there is interest from students in the community. Reed stated that because the Commission can't go to all the schools they should publish in the local papers. Borden mentioned that a student might not want to come during the summer months and that it would be better to have the term run during the school year. Borden also suggested a youth consultant, rather than a youth commissioner, for one year to see if the dynamics work. Reed suggested sending a survey to local schools to see if they are in favor of a youth consultant. VII Trainor moved, Larmore seconded, to rescind the motion of February 9th, 1993 requesting the appointment of a youth Commission member. Roll Call: All ayes. Borden moved, Anderson seconded, to solicit a student, no less that 16 years of age, to serve in an advisory capacity on the Roseville Human Rights Commission. That the term be from September 1 to June 1 of the following year. That the Roseville Human Rights Commission establish the advisory position of youth consultant and use the local paper to advertise for the position. Roll Call: All ayes. Mediation Training Trainor moved, Anderson seconded, to rescind the motion of March 9, asking staff do a rough draft RFP for the April meeting. Roll Call: All ayes. The motion was rescinded because it was determined that the information packets handed out at the March 9th meeting contained enough information on mediation training to make a choice between training providers. Secondly, that it is the understanding of the Commission that the League of Minnesota Human Rights Commissions will be holding a training session as early as June, 1993. Therefore, the Commission will wait until they receive further information from the League before they begin planning their own training session. Anderson moved, Larmore seconded, that the Commission ask McKenzie to follow up with the League to determine when mediation training will be provided. Roll Call: All ayes. VIII.Grievances There were no grievances. Waite suggested that Anderson and Borden prepare a 20 - 30 minute presentation on the No-Fault Grievance Packet, to be held during the May meeting. Trainor moved, Anderson seconded, to rescind the March 9, 1993 motion to write a letter to the MDHR. Roll Call: All ayes.
