Julie Robison commented on foreign
language communication as a goal/objective (item five). She noted that
Council recently launched its Healthy Neighborhoods Initiative, and a
facet of this program is staff working to communicate with
non-English-speaking members of the community.
Susan
Moran noted that Council’s Operations Committee approved a
multipoint meeting to receive additional input on the budget. This
item has been forwarded to Council on consent and will likely be
approved.
