She explained the ICTF was formed <br /> 1 after the Council passed a Resolution in October 2017. She reported the Council was interested in learning <br /> what they didn't already know. She discussed how task force members were selected and noted this group was <br /> tasked with finding ways to make the City more inclusive. She provided further comment on the six Council <br /> directives. She reviewed the learning activities the group went through and described how the community was <br /> broken down into sectors. She described how each member of the task force explored these sectors. She <br /> commented further on the report that was drafted by the ICTF describing the recommendations from the task <br /> force in detail. It was noted the group was recommending the City Council allow the task force to continue. <br /> She explained race relations were not deeply discussed and could be delved into further by the task force. <br /> Acting Mayor Burg thanked Ms. Fynewever for all of her hard work with the task force and for the thorough <br /> report. <br /> Councilmember Dunsworth thanked Ms. Fynewever and the task force members for all of their efforts. She <br /> questioned how the Council could find more diverse individuals to participate in this group. Ms. Fynewever <br /> suggested the Council refer to the contact list for potential candidates. <br /> Councilmember Allen thanked the task force for all of their efforts. He stated he was very pleased by the <br /> recommendations that were made by the group and supported the Council discussing these further. <br /> Councilmember Jacobsen asked if the task force explored how other cities managed their task force groups. <br /> Ms. Fynewever explained some cities had human rights commissions, while others has a task force with an <br /> assigned staff member. She recommended New Brighton have a task force with an assigned staff member. <br /> Tim McQuillan, ICTF member, stated it would be important for the Council to consider, if this group were to <br /> move forward, that the City seek the right diverse people for this task force. <br />
