CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities | 2017-10-11 | 12 | ITEM 2-A COMMISSION ON DISABILITY ISSUES MEETING MINUTES OF Wednesday, October 11, 2017 6:30 p.m. date. Thank you. And so that concludes old business. 6. STAFF COMMUNICATIONS 6-A Upcoming at the October 17th City Council: UDO, Proclamations, name change Beth Kenny: Staff communication. Laurie Kozisek: I'm happy to announce that at the next community council meeting, we will have the proclamation that will be for White Cane Day and Disability Awareness Month. They sort of combined the thing into one proclamation. That'll be at the beginning of the meeting, hopefully. And then, later, we'll have the first reading of the Universal Design Ordinance, and then the second reading will be a month later, in which they'll actually vote on it and have a public hearing. And then, way at the end of the meeting, is the change of the mission's title from "Commission on Disability Issues" to "Commission on Disability." And hopefully they'll get to that too, but it was one of the last items. Beth Kenny: Thank you very much. Tony Lewis: I had a question about the proclamation, Laurie. Are they going to be giving the proclamation to someone to receive or are they just going to read the proclamation? I just want to know how that one's going to work. Laurie Kozisek: Normally, the way it works is, either one or a bunch of people come up, and the mayor reads the proclamation and then hands it to a representative of the interested group. Like if it's the Boys and Girls Club, or some members of the Commission, or you had a person who is an activist in the Lion community, I believe, who's interested? Whoever will accept the proclamation and get a photo op. Beth Kenny: Yes. Tony Lewis: Yes, there's going to be quite a few folks coming for the White Cane. Laurie Kozisek: Okay, great. They can all stand up in front and everyone will clap, then somebody will take the proclamation. Tony Lewis: Oh, okay. Laurie Kozisek: You want us to get it in Braille? I can do that. Tony Lewis: You can put it into Braille? Laurie Kozisek: Yes. 12/13/17 Page 12 of 16 | CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities/2017-10-11.pdf |
