Without quorum so only three. , maybe four. Commissioner johnson . Is it possible to do the 14th, the 21st and the 25th . And then do interviews the the 12th . Yeah. So that would be pushing back the entire timeline a week. Im not here. Thats right. Yes, commissioner richards mom has a big birthday. Can we do the 9th, 10t 10th or the 11th. . Im free everyday that week, as well, and so are you. Commissioner moore, are you available from the 9th through the 11th . I have not looked at my calendar, obviously, other than my thursdays dedicated to Planning Commission, i have not looked at other dates to set aside for this effort but i would like to suggest for the matter of e expediency, if somee can take a calendar and hand it around instead of us going over the same dated again and again quickly indicate when they are or arent here and then look of what other dated are available. So commissioner moore, i attempted to do that in setting the original dates and got a poor response from fello

So commissioner moore, i attempted to do that in setting the original dates and got a poor response from fellow commissioners. So there is an attempt to make the process transpor transparen. Commissioner johnson . I already spoke but those dates work for me.
Close to the holidays because travel is impossible if there are as many from people out of town, we should give them the opportunity to have a comfortable time to come and go. Commissioner richards. The one awkward thing that i see with this schedule is should the new commissioner be seated to december 5th, we dont have a been of the give and take that she or he would have given us november 14th. And so, that person would splash in here and we would have to start trying to understand where he or she is coming from and it just feels weird. It doesnt give us the optimum outcome, i think. Commissioner fung . My last suggestion on the potential schedule would be as follows, for the closed session of discussion of potential candidates would be that monday before december 5th and then to have the interview the following week, early that week so were not stretching it into the 12th. So have that be decembe december 2nd. The early possible date that a new commissioner can be seated is october
We have reached out many of the candidates. Many of them who have to travel. We would just want to communicate in advance whether a decision can be made here or shortly thereafter so we can continue to engage them. As we push closer to the december holidays, travel plans can very much become a factor for all of them. We will help work with any of those candidates to do that, but i am a little concerned if we push into middle of december that there could be a conflict there. Thank you. And that concerns me, too, commissioners because there is a market for candidates and there are other municipalities and organizations hiring for candidates that have similar qualifications and i dont want to lose our best candidates, but commissioner richards . My mother turns 95 on december 13th. I probably wont be here on the 12th. Im trying to be here every commission hearing, but, you know. Yes. [please stand by] commissioner moore . I would like to share my own experience. I sit on the board when Bo
Question and then we have a number of other presenters and we have a whole host of people from the community that want to do Public Comment. So commissioner collins . Yes, i want to put this on the record that i still have a lot of questions when we are looking at data. I had asked for data around sieft transfers as a sense of how we can see if kids are feeling safe. And the data that show shared with me showed that predominantly the number of kids requesting safety transfers were black students, is that correct . Or black and brown students were requesting more safety transfers than more races of students for violent related incidents . What is your sense . I dont know. The safety transfers are down quite a bit because we have more criteria that were looking at for safety transfers because a couple years ago, of course, it was just a tsunami of transports that kind of blocked the system. This year weve had less safety transfers this past year than we have in a number of years. So i gu
