Summary

Commissioners proposed hosting a walk-and-talk with city council and community stakeholders in late September or early October to showcase planting needs, sidewalk concerns, and tree lawns; they discussed public-notice requirements and suggested using a Doodle poll to pick dates (proposed Sept. 17 or Oct. 1).

S1 proposed organizing a walk-and-talk for council members and community stakeholders to highlight local tree needs, shade benefits, and potential planting sites. Commissioners agreed the event should be public, potentially serve as the formally scheduled meeting in lieu of a regular meeting if quorum is present, and be advertised in advance to meet open-records/public-notice expectations.

The group proposed two candidate dates — Sept. 17 or Oct. 1 — and discussed using a Doodle poll to find the date that maximizes attendance by council and stakeholders. S3 emphasized inviting the broader community and parking logistics for a street-based walk; the commission agreed to follow up by email to council and other stakeholders and finalize logistics at a later meeting.
