Title
Recommendation to Approve the 2023 Social Service Human Relations Board Meeting Schedule with Any Necessary Changes
Body
To: Honorable President Sarah Lewis and Members of the Social Service Human Relations Board
BACKGROUND
At its August 26, 2021 meeting, the Social Service Human Relations Board (SSHRB) voted to recommend that the City Council, Boards and Commissions survey their members at the beginning of each year to determine potential scheduling conflicts, such as non-Federal holidays and other events, that would inhibit public participation and reschedule those meetings as necessary. The City Council unanimously approved the recommendation at its December 7, 2021 meeting.
DISCUSSION
The SSHRB meets on the fourth Thursday of every month at 7:00 p.m. Staff recommends that the SSHRB meets on the following Thursdays in 2023:
• January 26
• February 23
• March 23
• April 27
• May 25
• June 22
• July 27
• August 24
• September 28
• October 26
• November 23-to be canceled because of the Thanksgiving Holiday. As in the past, staff recommends that the November and December meetings be combined for date-to-be-determined meeting in the beginning of December.
• December 7-in place of having a meeting on December 28 due to the winter holidays and vacations.
Staff recommends that the Board reviews the proposed schedule to determine potential conflicts that would inhibit public participation and reschedules those meetings accordingly with the Board’s approval.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Board reviews and approves the 2023 SSHRB meeting schedule with any necessary changes. .

Eric Fonstein, Development Manager
