Commission not present for the vote).
Updates on Outreach and Engagement by the Police Department: No report.
Strategic Plan:This event will be held on October 15 at the Robert A. Lee Community Recreational Center.
Commissioners have been asked to complete a survey in preparation for the planning session by October
4. Staff also requested menu preferences by that date to provide a meal for commissioners. Paul Shantz
announced she will be out of town due to work and unable to attend either of the sessions.
CCAN-Con: It was previously discussed that the commission would staff a table at this event, however
commissioner's schedules no longer allow then the flexibility to participate. Staff will send a note to the
planners so indicating.
Indigenous Peoples Day: Lusala, Qaduora, and Pandya will represent the commission at this event being
held on October 14 starting at 4 at Terry Trueblood Recreation Area.
Human Rights Awards:The subcommittee will select honorees for this year's program and let staff know
by Monday, September 30. Staff went over the order of operations for the event and asked who will be
speaking at it. It was decided Pandya will do the closing remarks at the ceremony,the chair and vice chair
will open and announce the honorees.

Racial Equity and Social Justice Grant (RESJ): Staff spoke to commissioners regarding past processes
working on the grant and what has not. Staff recommended revamping the current application. Staff
suggested for the grant application,goals, and objectives to be more in line with the ordinance for the
Human Rights Commission. Staff also thinks that the commission may want to lower the max amount an
organization can receive, even making grant a reimbursement or issued on a quarterly basis. Staff will work
on updating the application and present the updates to the commission at a later meeting date. Kollasch
suggested adding more parameters around the possibility of limiting who could receive the grant
depending on if they received any money from the grant the previous year. Paul Shantz suggested
requesting that the questions on the application be more specific or shorter in hopes of deterring
applicants from using Chat GPT. Staff told the commission to send any additional requests by email for
consideration on the new application. Qaduora asked if there was a way to require a background check on
those who apply. Staff said that would be a decision made by the City Council. Lusala noted that the grants
are based on the organization applying for them rather than the individual people submitting the
application on behalf of the org.

• Building Bridges (Paul Shantz, Kollasch, Pandya): No update.
• Reciprocal Relationships(Lusala, Pries,Abdullahi): No update.

and Greet.
