| | 2. | | Discussion and possible vote on recommendation(s) to amend the CCC membership.
Minutes note: Chair A. Hamilton said they wanted to make sure they had an active committee. Mr. Royal suggested having the CCC monitor how frequently MPD engages with the community; MPD is doing a lot and the CCC should be encouraging them to put it on paper.
The original composition was originally 16 members and is now down to 13.
Per Mr. Hamilton, Jeff Roman, Tammy Rivera and Shawn Muhammed are inconsistent members.
There is No Independence First rep. and the ASHA Project rep doesn't show up.
Chair A. Hamilton will reach out to Shawn Muhammed today. Members agreed to broaden the appointment so it is someone working with domestic violence, if no firm commitment to attend from Mr. Muhammed.
Chair A. Hamilton will ask Connie Kostelac from the Medical College of Wisconsin be appointed by the President as he still has one outstanding appointment.
Mr. Hamilton said that a concern of Pres. Perez was Hispanic representation and engagement; expand membership to someone who serves the Hispanic community instead of limiting to the Southside Organizing Committtee, if Tammy cannot commit to attending.
Chair A. Hamilton will call Tammy Rivera as well.
Strike the Independence First rep. as a member if they cannot submit someone and broaden the appointment to someone serving clients with disabilities (physical, emotional or mental).
The staff assistant will e-mail Jeff Roman, Shawn Muhammed and Tammy Rivera to see if they are still interested in serving. The staff assistant will also e-mail Independence First to see about a rep.
Mr. Hamilton said that there is no Islamic/Muslim representation.
Mr. Royal said that the group was created for a broad representation and that is still needed.
Mr. Royal suggested contacting the Dept. of Health and Human Services at the County as having someone to serve to add to the body. He suggested this individual be the 3rd appointment and MCW could be the community engagement/academic member. Chair A. Hamilton suggested having Ms. Kostelac as an at-large presidential appointment.
Mr. Royal and Ms. Whitaker both suggested incorporating attendance requirements. Ms Whitaker suggested no more than 3 unexcused absences in a calendar year will result in removal from the Committee. Members supported this. The Chair will individually communicate with members who don't actively participate during meetings. The appointing organization will be contacted to see if someone else would like to serve.
Individuals who are e-mailed to see if they are willing to serve have until March 27th to respond. A draft can be provided for that meeting of possible proposed changes to membership.
Meeting adjourned: 6:10 P.M.
