   2. Review work group’s responsibilities Please review the City of Milwaukee’s ReFresh Milwaukee’s Implementation Table (first attachment in file 191923) . It will be useful background to our discussion of accountability approaches and plans for the Task Force’s Ten Big Ideas.

Minutes note: Discussion - Role of the Accountability Workgroup: Focus: provide clarification for defining the workgroup role. Discussion centered on three areas and two questions. FOCUS AREAS a. To identify the process by which accountability milestones and measures will be set, b. Responsible for keeping track of milestones and metrics. BW requested that we use the word ‘monitor’ versus the phrase ‘keeping track’ and in addition to monitoring, we must develop a reporting process. c. Hold elected officials responsible for. It is not appropriate to have City or County staff holding meetings or pushing elected officials. QUESTIONS d. ID process for getting the plan adopted and work with Eco to do the work. e. Is there another group or department who can assist or take the lead in monitoring and reporting? Erick indicated that ECO is fine with doing the reporting, but has concerns about funding the current plan. Suggested that we focus on accountability for the items that have funding. DP suggested that we develop a dashboard for tracking those items that are being funded. Erick will send out the document and grid for review. Consensus: We should define the process, framework and reporting for the CCE Plan and should also serve as an accountability sounding board for other workgroups. Next Steps: ? Explore reporting options and work with the outreach committee ? Review Erick’s grid ? We need overall agreement - to ID the process/ framework and our role in monitoring the results of the work.
