The possibility of a new Roseville Commission has been suggested <br />for Civic Engagement; to-date, this has been tied up with the Uniform Commission Code. <br /> <br />Grefenberg looked to inform the Commission that a recent committee of Roseville staff and <br />community members had looked into opportunities for civic engagement as part of considerations <br />for an upgrade City website. Components reviewed had the potential for strong & effective 2-way <br />community communications.

Key points included; <br /> <br /> <br />The Open Meeting Law insures that meetings are noticed to the public and that work is <br />being done in a way that is accessible to the public. <br /> <br /> <br />A “meeting” was described as anytime a quorum or forum gets together. <br /> <br /> <br />A strong consideration in today’s world is the fact that virtual communication triggers the <br />Open Meeting Law. The recommendation from Counsel is that electronic information <br />should be sent through City staff, rather than using the replay all response when <br />corresponding on City business with Commissioners. <br /> <br /> <br />
