Introductions <br />Roy Busch <br />Nora Gierloff <br />Kathy Hougardy <br />Dat Tran <br />Nichelle Page <br />Mikkell Roeland <br />Staff: <br />Mia Navarro <br />III. Approval of Minutes, May 3, 2018 <br />Kathy had a question about whether or not the group wants to administer grants. If so, <br />we need to ask the City for more funds. Nichelle noted the importance of having a work <br />plan before we make budget decisions. Mikkell recommended that we have grant <br />guidelines if we want to give out grants, and have a committee review requests. What <br />percentage do we want to have for training, and what do we want to have for grants. <br />Training alone could take up the full budget. Equity and Social Justice should touch <br />every department in the City. <br />The group agreed by consensus to approve the minutes from May 3rd <br />Mikkell made a motion to amend the amount to give to the KD Hall Foundation at the <br />May 3rd meeting from $1,000 to $500. Nora seconded the motion. Approved. <br />IV. Unfinished Business <br />• Workplan development <br />The group agreed that a good next step would be to draft a letter to the Mayor and <br />City Administrator regarding HR Director Recruitment, and recommending an <br />external facilitator to help the City develop the equity policy implementation plan. <br />
