In October, about 75 people enthusiastically shared their thoughts and opinions about how to make Wauwatosa more inclusive.
Now, months later, the city has decided to focus on five key initiatives in the next five years in hopes of making Wauwatosa a more inclusive and equitable city.
Those key initiatives are:
Increase the number of minority-owned businesses.
Continue to evolve police services.
Address lack of accessible public space and housing for individuals with disabilities.
Use city communications to further develop transparency around equity initiatives.
These five initiatives are based largely on responses that are included in the report titled Making Wauwatosa More Inclusive, available on the city website.
