I - Selection of finalists for interview, Youth Commission
Discussion took place with regard to makeup of the new Commission, what criteria
was to be met and whether only those age 15 to 18 were to be considered. Also,
whether professional people involved with youth activities were to be selected.
Role of the Commission was touched on with consensus that it was to work as an
advocacy group. Stan Long, assistant city attorney, explained that the Youth
Commission would not be dealing with discrimination cases as do the other Human
Rights Commissions, rather it would gather information for the Council with re-
gard to solutions to problems identified and experienced by youth in the com-
munJty. Consensus was also reached with regard to selection of persons for
interview, that the normal process would be followed for choosing a cross section
from those applications received.
Mr. Murray moved second by Mr. Hamel that each Council member present
would submit six names from the applications presented.
'. Mr. Bradley moved to amend the motion so that each Council member
present would submit nine names rather than six. There was no second.
