Agenda Item Summary:
When the Council ratified the recommendations of the Human Relations Commission Task Force, one of the tasks that was identified was to amend the ordinance to reflect the new structure and mission of the City Human Relations Commission. The revised ordinance removes language related to the more legal and adversarial process that implemented the previous model and keeps the language that authorizes the new model which focuses the Commissions efforts on education, mediation, and reconciliation.
