Chair Elizabeth Kenny: Great. I was hoping to go to one of them. Unfortunately, I have to leave now, so I'm not going to be able to go to them but I have sent it out to a few different organizations so hopefully, we'll get some good response. Commissioner Jennifer Roloff: Yes, I'm going to try and go to Tuesday. And I think this is the best place for education. Chair Elizabeth Kenny: Great. Commissioner Jennifer Roloff: And I think Anto, did you sign up for one too? Commissioner Anto Aghapekian: I did. Yeah. I would attend the Monday one. September 26th. Commissioner Lisa Hall: Well you're going to have a long day, aren't you? Because on Monday and Tuesday we'll be at the disability convention. Commissioner Anto Aghapekian: Oh, I'll be all night. Commissioner Lisa Hall: So you have a day in the evening, there you go. But yeah, I did want to bring that up. I am looking forward to Anto and I and one other perhaps Laurie? Commissioner Susan Deutsch: I'm going. Commissioner Lisa Hall: And Susan. We're all going to be attending that. So last year was so wonderful. They did have a little session on technology. It was very informative about especially for the blind and the deaf and even just speaking and it was pretty unreal. Yeah, great. It's a good information. 6. STAFF COMMUNICATIONS Chair Elizabeth Kenny: Alright. So then we can move on to staff communications unless someone else has something. Alright, agenda item six. Staff Support Laurie Kozisek: Okay, I, I just got this a little while ago, so I couldn't put on the agenda but we may have it in the future. You said you wanted to reach out to Gail Payne, well she's trying to reach out to us and everyone else about a transportation awareness campaign. So she's got this action plan which is eight pages long on how she's going to reach out to the different groups. She's going to be reaching out to commuters, drivers, students, parents, people walking, biking, taking transit, employees, older people, people with disabilities, people buying cars, visitors, and putting out different messages on how you can make your carbon footprint lower. And how much cars cost, all these different things to try to get you out of your car, essentially. She's going to have different monthly themes. So like August would be Back to School Safety month then September would be World Car Free day. And then she's got different tactics. Did I send you a copy of this? I think I did. 09/12/18 Page 14 of 16 | CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities/2018-09-12.pdf |
