Summary
The committee approved nominations of three youth representatives — Arias Denan, Erin Dean and Asia Marie Gilmore — to the Milwaukee Youth Council; members praised the council's growing role and a recent youth scholarship award.
A Milwaukee Common Council committee confirmed three nominees to the Milwaukee Youth Council representing the 14th and 15th districts.
Arias Denan was nominated as the 14th District representative; committee members noted the youth council's expanding roster and desire for district representation. Alderman Moore moved Denan's confirmation and the committee approved by unanimous consent.
A nomination listed as Erin Dean (transcript reads "Deanand") was also confirmed. Committee members praised the youth council for awarding real dollars and noted a recent $10,000 scholarship associated with a Milwaukee Bucks HBCU scholarship program; the transcript did not list the scholarship recipient's full name in the segments provided.
Asia Marie Gilmore was nominated to represent the 15th District. Speakers said she participated in the council's "summer earn and learn" program and that she attends Reagan High School. Alderman Moore moved her confirmation; the committee approved without objection.
All three confirmations were made by voice consent; the transcript records no roll-call votes. Members signaled intent to keep expanding youth representation and to hold socials and other events connecting young council members with elected officials.
