Prepared By: Amy Carlson, Recreation Coordinator I
SUBJECT: CHANGE OF HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION APPOINTMENT
DATES
CAO RECOMMENDATION
By resolution, change the date of commissioner appointment for the Human Relations
Commission from April 1 to October 1.
DISCUSSION
Background:
One of the primary functions of the Human Relations Commission (HRC), is the annual
review, and subsequent award of funding, to non - profit agencies through the Grants -In -Aid
process. This process is conducted from December through June each year. The April 1
appointment period for filling vacancies on the Human Relations Commission brings new
commissioners in during the middle of the Grants -In -Aid process.
The actual review and recommendations by the members of the HRC of the Grants -In -Aid
applications takes place from February through June. New commissioners beginning in April
are at an extreme disadvantage by not having any historical background on the purpose,
process, or direction of the Grants -In -Aid process for the current funding year.
Moving the appointments to October 1 provides new commissioners an opportunity to become
acquainted with the Grants -In -Aid process as it develops annually. By recommendation time in
March, commissioners have had the opportunity to experience the entire process and can
effectively participate and contribute in the Grants -In -Aid process.
CONCURRENCES:
The Human Relations Commission concurs with this recommendation.
FISCAL EWFACT
There is no fiscal impact.
