On January 9, 1979, the City Council referred a draft ordinance to the Human Relations
Commission and staff which expanded the duties of the form er. Specifically added was ,
cognizance of matters relating to senior citizens, disabled/handicapped persons, an� housing
for low and moderate income groups,
The ordinance has been redrafted and incorporates concerns expressed by various department
heads as well as sugqestions forwarded by the Human Relations and Park & Recreation Com-
missionse The modifications fall into four main categories:
� 1 , Elimination of "sexist" wording , e.g. , chairman to chairperson.
2. Language emphasizinq advisory versus administrative responsibilities, e.g. , "the
promotion of new programs" instead of "'the development of new programs" .
3m Housekeeping measures, e.g4 , the method of establishing terms and appointments.
4, Specific reference to cooperation with other relevant boards and commissions.
With regard to the last area, several comments were made as to shared responsibilities with
the Park �� Recreation Commission, Library Board, Planning Commission, Youth Commission,
Civil Service Commission and various Mayor"s ad hoc committees. Relevant minutes of
recent commission meetings are attachede
It should be clear Council policy that the new Human Relations Commission charges are
meant to complement rather than supersede the duties of other advisory bodies and staff.
