CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities | 2017-12-13 | 9 | Beth Kenny: Thank you very much. I just wanted to add, one thing that I had talked about having beyond the planning of our next year, is talking a little bit more about emergency preparedness. And Commissioner Lewis and I have yet to meet, and it's my fault because I had to cancel. But I have spoken with Captain Oliver and with Jackie Krause from Mastick. Captain Oliver, obviously, is interested, but Jackie Krause would like to work with us along this issue, too, and has worked with, when the City did other efforts, to create a way to know who are the people who are going to need a little bit of extra help in the event of an emergency. I think that would be really great to be able to work with Mastick and Jackie Krause. Jenn Barrett: I went to the opening of the new fire station, and I saw you there. That was great. And it's just so great to hear about how seriously they're taking the emergency preparedness, and so I think it's a great time, now that they've just had that new ceremony with the new chief, to reach out to them and work together. That's awesome. Beth Kenny: Wonderful. And I'm glad you guys went to that. Laurie Kozisek: I had one more item. As of January 1st, you will be the Commission on Disability. [applause] Laurie Kozisek: Just wanted to prepare you for that. 7. ANNOUNCEMENTS Beth Kenny: Agenda item number seven. Does anyone have any announcements they'd like to make? Lisa Hall: More of a question. Going back to the calendar. Generally, we have six meetings a year. Is that correct? Beth Kenny: We're supposed to have six meetings a year. Lisa Hall: But because August is closed, we have to put that meeting in some other month. The usual months that we would have it is, am I right then? It's February, April, June, October, December. Beth Kenny: Yes Lisa Hall: Okay. But then we always have to put a special meeting in for retreat because August is closed. Beth Kenny: That's correct. And I know that previously, I've inquired about us moving so that we were on January, March, that schedule, but apparently there is a conflicts with another commission that meets in this room at that time. Maybe that's something we can look a little bit more into too. If we maybe did the third Wednesday instead of the second Wednesday. That's something we can look into and definitely talk more about at the retreat. Alright any other announcements? Great than I would like to move that we adjourn tonight's meeting. Alright. All in favor? 12/12/17 Page 9 of 10 | CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities/2017-12-13.pdf |
