Background:
Community Relations Cmt Meeting: 9/21/2022:
At the Community Relations Committee’s September 21, 2022 Meeting they adopted the following Mission Statement:
“The Community Relations Committee is tasked with being both an advocate and a resource for the community by listening, communicating, and engaging with the community, educating ourselves, standing up to discrimination and racism in all forms.
We do this by encouraging dialogue, promoting unity and understanding, and learning from one another as we continue to build a strong community together, making sure no-one is left behind.”
The Community Relations Committee has recommended changing the name of the Committee to more accurately reflect their role, as provided in their Mission Statement.
Because the Town Council’s Standing Committees are established by their Rules of Procedures; the Committee has forwarded the attached Addendum - 2024 to the “Resolution Establishing the Rules of Procedure for the Twenty-seventh Town Council” to revise the name of the Committee.
