Path Between Crown & Washington Parks (Chair Lord-Hausman): Chair Lord-Hausman stated the accessibility improvements along the pathway are done and look nice. 3. Disability Parking at City Events (Chair Lord-Hausman): Chair Lord-Hausman stated that, as part of the agreement with the City, the Earth Day event would include accessible temporary parking. 4. Commission Recruitment (Chair Lord-Hausman): Chair Lord-Hausman stated she had not received any new applications from prospective applicants and encouraged everyone to spread the word about open vacancies on the Commission. STAFF COMMUNICATIONS 1. Secretary Akil stated the presentation of the draft ADA Transition Plan would be presented to the Commission at the May 27, 2008 meeting and would also be noticed as a community-wide meeting. A printed version of the draft Plan would be available for review in several City offices prior to the meeting date. More information will be mailed to the Commission in advance as well. Secretary Akil explained that the delay of the presentation to the CDI was due to internal approval and presentation to affected City departments. 2. Secretary Akil provided information from Barry Bergman, PW Transportation Coordinator, requesting that a representative from the CDI join the Bike Plan Task Force as they begin to update the Plan. Commissioner Longley-Cook asked about the frequency of the meetings, to which Chair Lord- Hausman responded that it is similar to the Pedestrian Plan Task Force, which does not meet on a weekly basis, only as needed. Commissioner Kreitz agreed to join the Task Force as the CDI representative, to which Secretary Akil indicated that she would inform Mr. Bergman. ORAL OMMUNICATIONS/NON-AGENDA ITEMS 1. Cathy Nielsen, SSHRB member, stated she had received the letter that the CDI had sent to the Social Services Human Relations Board (SSHRB) regarding County medical funding for low- income/disabled individuals and wanted to discuss those items. Chair Lord-Hausman responded that she was not aware if the letter was distributed to all of the SSHRB members and requested that she return to a future meeting to discuss that issue, to which Ms. Nielsen agreed.
