Ms. Patterson revisited her desire to see a leadership committee formed that would include a representative from each Advisory Committee that would meet monthly (or quarterly) to communicate individual projects (that could be shared with each respective committee) in an effort that all committees be better informed.
Ms. Patterson expressed that the Arts Advisory Committee has not been introduced to the City Council or the Community and that it would be timely for PR at this time.
Chairwoman Aiken-Miller suggested our liaison possibly relay information, discussed at the City Council meetings, which is pertinent to our committee and relates to the Planning, Beautification, and Parks and Recreation Department, keeping the communication open amongst the advisory councils.
Chairwoman Aiken-Miller reminded committee members that the Committee will not meet in August.
