New Business:
1. Discuss CCY Master Plan (Youth, Children and Family Platform)-
Commission discussed this platform and advised that the title should
be changed to " Children, Youth and Family Platform" in all of the
platform documents to include the CCY Platform Power Point. City
staff advised that this title was taken from NLC literature. Chair
advised that since it was referencing NLC literature then it may be a
good idea to keep the title as is. Some board members urged for the
title to be changed to reflect"Children, Youth and Family" Platform
for synergistic reasons and it reflected the Commission's name as
well (Commission on Children and Youth). In addition, CCY
resolution was reviewed. It was urged by CCY to have the language
in "section 1" to be strong so they will have re-assurance that the
City's leadership will implement their platform. CCY suggested to
have "will establish" instead of"will seek to establish" changed in
"Section 1" of the CCY Resolution. CCY and City staff discussed
dates to "practice"the presentation in the "Council Chambers" .
October 3, 2007 during from 12:30p-1:30p was selected for the
"practice date" if the "Council Chamber"was available. Valerie
