Kunz told the committee, “We are partnering with Southeast Neighborhood Association for National Night Out, August 5. Everything you need to know is on our flyer.” She described the event as a community gathering “set up like a farmer's market” with vendors donating time and resources and asked attendees to contact organizers if they had questions.

Kunz said this is the first time her group has partnered with the Southeast Neighborhood Association and that organizers expect the partnership to continue annually. She also provided contact information for distribution to other neighborhood associations and promised to send email follow-ups to staff.

Member Barney said the committee should do “due diligence” before issuing proclamations, suggesting the committee be “privy to what they're going to say and hold them to it” so proclamations don’t become political platforms. Several members agreed that reviewing the identity of a proclamation presenter in advance is practical; they proposed a requirement that presenters provide names and basic bullet points in advance so staff and committee members can identify potential “red flags.”

Counselor Star (city councilor) emphasized distinguishing public comment from proclamations: public comment is the appropriate place for opinion and personal testimony, while proclamations should educate the community about an issue. Star said that listening to community concerns should inform committee outreach, but that proclamations themselves should have an educational focus.

Committee members acknowledged limits to advance review: several said some presenters do not prepare a written script in advance, so the committee discussed asking for bullet points or a brief outline rather than requiring full text a month ahead. The committee agreed short-term work should include drafting a simple one-page guideline for proclamation presenters covering expectations (what the proclamation is intended to do), time limits, and whether presenters should submit suggested topics or bullet points prior to the event.

Ending: The committee tasked staff to research any existing city-level guidance and to draft a one-page document of suggested proclamation practices for the committee to review in three months.","Committee members discussed drafting guidance for proclamation presenters to keep proclamations educational and nonpartisan, and recommended requiring identification of speakers and advance notice of proclamations.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6552101,"City manager: Keizer survey vendor selection underway; committee can submit a question",122,1780000,1902000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5134152-19a22022214757fd0db815e3b79c7d82&start=1780&end=1902","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5134152-19a22022214757fd0db815e3b79c7d82/thumbnail_1780000.jpg","/articles/6552101/Keizer/Marion-County/Oregon/City-manager-Keizer-survey-vendor-selection-underway-committee-can-submit-a-question","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6552101-cf409eac365bd52615c0ea894af942ed/orig.mp4?Expires=1770850860&Signature=BYb8J-x8ke9-Xp18O0jnPdYuVp5kNxyZmVrEIVlxj84fN5Te8SN7jjZRTJAWlWg2ZVo3-npg0FcjQo8gC13H~k~rzgHHQ4VRFTC16Amq9b7Mvk~HFBAHhQpqHWn7pM0oRRbZEgysXAe719nr-~sS4wuAGGSlYy~0tYnQlFvzWnQjoNpnk0luZgYCcVwMgT1j3UwPOW4x8V74gFo~AbmDhJEpIv5F3mHZgskIyHw6soIV-hhgX9A1wOR3UIPft5OA44S2mYlqpyaIpc8NNM0AlI4V~ZiR5bNJuoiLmnTzV4ZDDph86Oi8ZG8K~yqi-tjdQeFutlolyF6bjaeDLF3vLg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City staff told the Community Diversity and Engagement Committee July 3 that the city is in the vendor-selection stage for a citywide community survey and that the committee will be able to submit questions for possible inclusion.

Adam Brown, the city manager, told the committee the city is “still in vendor selection” for the planned survey and that the selection and any contract would have to go through the city council approval process. Brown said the city expects the contracting process to take about a month and that staff “would probably have that rolling forward in the next month or two.”

Tim (staff member) summarized the likely structure: the survey will use a standard national questionnaire so Keizer’s data can be compared with similar municipalities, and the city will be able to add a set of supplemental questions. Tim said there would likely be “a handful, 20 to 30 questions somewhere in that range” that the city could include in addition to the national items; he cautioned the committee to consider response rates and advised prioritizing those additions. Tim also said he would “anticipate that we have the results or the survey and the process, before the end of the calendar year.”

The committee agreed this work is a longer-term data effort: members placed review of the city demographic packet and the drafting of potential survey questions on the short-term agenda, with a plan to return in about three months to discuss specific questions the committee would prioritize.

Ending: Committee members will review the demographic packet provided by staff, identify missing data needs, and prepare suggested survey questions for staff to consider during the vendor and contract process.","Keizer staff told the committee that a citywide survey vendor is being selected, city council approval will be required, and the committee can submit one or more prioritised questions for possible inclusion; results were expected by the end of the calendar year.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6552106,"Keizer committee sets outreach plan: partner with local groups, host outside meeting and produce postcards",1290,458000,1748000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5134152-19a22022214757fd0db815e3b79c7d82&start=458&end=1748","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5134152-19a22022214757fd0db815e3b79c7d82/thumbnail_458000.jpg","/articles/6552106/Keizer/Marion-County/Oregon/Keizer-committee-sets-outreach-plan-partner-with-local-groups-host-outside-meeting-and-produce-postcards","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6552106-67dfc82e310b7c3f639d64305a179c7d/orig.mp4?Expires=1770850860&Signature=ND-~fMmsI-0582UQRpUCf2Tfiqwdwq-6vSq9avFY7qfCFGU1FTVn6cEiFE7GuYOvKSGvUVXz36KEXxOljLWhd~l~tBZwBFQRd0WssYLzSmcv7-hJvfAmRV30-cgOwI0bd2wrrlvwaq7jrrxEdlZuHQ6oXuQ~CVA70wKX7DzG0sEp87EQXoZ1Cefi4RBdI1ja0MYGb7631QbZ14dWtHcw3U6puHMNyliSBIX1YGFxq9McdWTI68nwR6wP3qJqlMuZ7zaJ2WtrQ5p3C-I7OWsL0lj91Md1pDNAyfIPM4Mu064XorLnzx~I1hRJ4iKsBup4wdVacpMESkugAFZxwkaiGQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Community Diversity and Engagement Committee (CDEC) of Keizer agreed July 3 to pursue immediate outreach steps to build partnerships with local organizations and to hold at least one meeting outside City Hall within the next three to six months.

Madam Chair (committee chair) opened the discussion by summarizing a recent joint work session with the city council and said the group “decided the 5 items from appendix a that we are going to work on for this upcoming year” and that the work session “achieved that.”

The nut graf: committee members focused on turning long-range goals into measurable short-term actions — identify partner organizations, increase visibility in neighborhoods, and create outreach materials — so the committee can both gather data and take immediate community-facing steps.

Committee members proposed a set of short-term tasks. Sarah [last name not specified], a committee member, said the group should “start reaching out to some of these organizations and getting contact information” and suggested members pair up with organizations they already know. Member Barney (committee member) and others agreed that each committee member should identify or, if already affiliated, attend one local group meeting and report back by the October meeting. The chair framed that as a short-term goal to be completed in about three months.

Members also endorsed piloting a CDEC meeting outside City Hall to increase attendance. The committee discussed venues named during the meeting — the Grange, the Rack (recreation venue), the Keizer Senior Center on Philomath, the Cultural Center, and the Southeast Keizer Community Center — and asked staff to research logistics and accessibility. A tentative planning sequence discussed by members was: identify an outside venue in three months, set logistics and promotion, and hold the outside meeting within six months. Tim (staff member) cautioned that advertising and notice periods require lead time; members proposed a 30-day minimum advertising window once a date is set.

Outreach materials under development include postcards and short informational videos. The committee discussed two postcard formats (4-by-6 or 5-by-7), city branding, and the need to make copy that emphasizes welcoming participation rather than only recruiting volunteers. One member suggested producing two versions: a CDEC-specific card explaining the committee’s mission and contact details, and a broader city volunteer/recruitment card if the council intends broader outreach. Sarah and others volunteered to draft text for the CDEC postcard and circulate it by email before the next meeting.

On the idea of video outreach, members proposed short, bilingual (English/Spanish) clips to make committee participation feel approachable. One member suggested partnering with local students to write scripts and produce short social-media videos; another proposed keeping videos 10–30 seconds to fit common platforms. Members emphasized doing listening work first — gather community input about barriers to participation — and then plan video content based on that feedback.

Decisions and directions recorded during the meeting included: each committee member will identify a local group to engage with (short-term, ~3 months); staff will compile/update a master list of local organizations and distribute it before the next meeting; the committee will plan an outside meeting (phase 1: schedule and define format within 3 months; phase 2: hold the meeting within 6 months); and postcard concepts will be drafted and circulated by email for review.

Members noted the committee should be intentional about accessibility (ADA-capable venues, audio/video options) and about notifying neighborhood associations and the public through social media and flyers. Several members said outreach should prioritize listening to community concerns before producing promotional materials.

Ending: Committee members closed the discussion by assigning follow-up tasks to staff and members and agreed to revisit venue options, a postcard draft, and a proposed outside-meeting timeline at the next meeting.","Keizer’s Community Diversity and Engagement Committee agreed on short- and long-term outreach steps, including member outreach to local groups within three months, a pilot outside meeting within six months, and development of postcards and short videos to encourage participation.","actionData","errors"]
