The Committee discussed community and stakeholder consultations. The Committee discussed the following questions:
- What does success look like? within the municipal organization? within the community?
- What actions do we need to take to address inequities?
- Who do we need to talk to in order to understand priorties?
- Specific demographics
- community groups
- organizations, etc.
- What methods should we use to engage stakeholders?
- What resources will we need to engage stakeholders?
Staff will use the discussion from these questions to develop the stakeholder engagement framework.
The Committee discussed that success would be a supportive, safe, barrier free community. Additionally, the Committee expressed a desire to see permanent changes reflecting the IDEA learning which has been taking place. The desire to see oneself within and be welcomed within the community regardless of who you are, was an overall desired outcome.
The Committee provided feedback on various inequities evident within the community, and potential stakeholders to communicate with, and possible partnerships opportunities. The Committee recognized that this list is not exhaustive based on the limited representation of the Committee.
The Committee discussed methods to engage with Stakeholders, however the meeting adjourned before resources could be discussed.
Randy Hughes left the meeting during these discussions. Jordyn also left the meeting during these discussions, and the meeting was adjourned at that point due to a lack of quorum.
