Harvat Hall, City Hall Commissioners present: Lauren Merritt, Marie Krebs, Louis Tassinary, Chad Simmons, Wangui Gathua. Commissioners on Zoom: Chastity Dillard, Sikowis Nobiss. Commissioners not present: Cliff Johnson Staff present: Redmond Jones, Stefanie Bowers. Recommendation to City Council: Yes. Simmons moved for the TRC to request $250.000.00 from the City Council to allow the TRC to fulfill its mission- the resolution; Tassinary seconded the motion. The motion passed 5-0-2, with Dillard and Gathua abstaining. Meeting called to order: 7:08 PM. Reading of Land Acknowledgement: Merritt read the Land Acknowledgement. Approval of minutes from the December 7 meeting: Simmons moved, and Tassinary seconded. The motion passed 7-0. To Public comment of items not on the agenda: David Sterling would welcome an opportunity to have a dialogue on the definition of anti-semitism. Sterling is open to working with the TRC on finding ways to engage with the Jewish community. The TRC can assist in bridging the gaps in the conflict in Gaza. Annie Tucker mentioned the persons in the community who want to be a part of the work that the TRC is currently doing. Next steps for Phase 2: Melinda Salazar, Think Peace, presented on the trauma-informed truth telling and witnessing protocol. The overview of the presentation included the below key points. Trauma Basics & Trauma-Informed Truth Telling • Triggers, impact, post-traumatic stress syndrome, and somatic abolitionism. Prepare Truth Tellers • Pre-meeting and build relationships. Conduct Testimony • Thank, affirm, and invite. • Do not interrogate or impose. • Allow space and offer support. • Provide and encourage care. Prepare Witnesses 2 • Psychological, physiological. Post Truth Telling • Follow up and maintain relationships. Larry Schooler, Kearns and West, presented the roadmap. The roadmap includes completed outputs, the role of each facilitation team, and goals for each week. The roadmap concludes with a presentation to City Council on April 16 and then one final meeting with the TRC and facilitators on April 18. The commission discussed whether the current roadmap is doable or should be restructured. This will be discussed in more detail at the TRC’s next meeting date. Commissioners spent some time on their current workload, believing that to complete Phase 2 by March 31 is feeling very rushed. Particularly considering members not receiving any financial compensation. One suggestion is to break into teams to complete the work. Request for an additional $250,000.00 from the City Council: Commissioners discussed whether the facilitation team had met expectations in terms of services rendered and what the Commissioners' role is in relation to the facilitation team--who does the work for the TRC. Commissioners differed on their understanding of the relationship between themselves and the hired facilitators. This included delegation of work. Some Commissioners believe staff should be hired to complete the resolution's goals that established the TRC. Tucker noted that the city failed to hire the TRC Coordinator requested by the facilitation team as a part of their proposal. The discussion broadened into projects and opportunities to fulfill the objectives of the resolution. There is additional work the TRC must do that cannot be performed by the facilitators. People test projects could include the following: • Truthsgiving • Black Educator’s Work Group • Civil Leadership Program • Housing Initiative • Black Business Wealth These projects would require additional funding from the City to the TRC. These projects would allow the TRC to test the waters. The list would also need to be expanded to be more representative of all persons. Simmons moved for the TRC to request $250.000.00 from the City Council to allow the TRC to fulfill its mission- the resolution; Tassinary seconded the motion. The motion passed 5-0-2, with Dillard and Gathua abstaining. Commissioner Simmons requested that by the next TRC meeting date, he would request a written letter by a City official, not the City Attorney, as to the authority of the TRC. This would include the power they have to act independently in terms of financial and contractable decisions. MLK Day: The TRC is a co-sponsor of MLK Day events that will be held on Monday, January 15 from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The TRC will have a vendor table and a room reserved where they will give informational presentations on their work. 3 Native Partners Healing Circle training and events: A flyer has been created to advertise the Circles. The circles will be held from January 26- January 28 at the Eastside Environmental Education Session, 2401 Scott Blvd., SE. Discussion was held on the concerns of appropriation of Indigenous practices and customs. The facilitation team will contact Commissioners to ensure the training content is agreeable to them. Announcement of Commissioners: Krebs spoke on a petition on the Great Plains Action Society website on the recent recommendation by the Board of Regents to gut all DEI programming at state universities. Gathua spoke on the Perry school shooting that occurred earlier in the day. Nobiss mentioned the recent resolution by the City Council on the conflict in Gaza. Dillard asked members to recommend Amos Kiche for the open seat on the TRC. The meeting adjourned at 10:58 PM. To view the recording or listen to the audio of this meeting, visit this link.

It includes the 1/15 MLK Day Listening Post (now postponed to February), TRC meetings, experiential Healing Circles, Talking Circle experiences, Culminating Events, and the final presentation and report to City Council. • For the CEs in March, I have numbered the different scheduling options for each consultant team. The numbers don’t refer to versions of the roadmap—e.g. the Fact-Finding Option1 doesn’t “go with” the Truth-Telling CE Option1—but rather show the choices per team (as in, how many options there are for scheduling a single given CE).

The “One-Topic Roadmap” tabs include all the notes and intermediate process steps, and are intended for viewing by the consultant team. The “One- Topic Roadmap Clean” tabs present just the completed outputs and events, and are intended for viewing by the TRC. o We put the “Kearns & West” tab in red and will update it once the TRC approves the new roadmap.
