Committee reconstitution, volunteer outreach and communications plan discussed; about 30 volunteers on list
Summary
Members confirmed plans to reconstitute the Climate Action Committee, said reappointments will be sought, discussed a volunteer roster of roughly 30 people, and agreed to use local media and the committee's mailing list for outreach.
The committee discussed reconstitution of the Climate Action Committee, outreach to existing volunteers and a plan for public communications, including use of the Shoreline Area News.
Members said committee appointments run on three-year terms and that the city will ask current members whether they wish to be reappointed. They asked staff to prioritize recruiting students for open slots, and noted some members have been less active recently.
Committee members said Linda holds the volunteer list — described in the meeting as roughly 30 people — and agreed to send a message to that list outlining near-term volunteer needs for Climate Hub setup, the wildfire event and farmers-market tabling. The committee agreed to invite other commissions to share tables at the green fair and community events to create collaborative, cross-commission outreach.
Members also reported that the council approved using Shoreline Area News for committee outreach; the committee said it will send items directly rather than routing content through additional review. Committee members discussed a suite of events (green fair, Horizon View walk, farmers-market tabling) and encouraged members to sign up and support focused micro-tasks to engage volunteers with narrow commitments.
