RCAC Members,
Police Dolan is interested in meeting with the RCAC members or CAC designee to provide a
departmental update before the first of the year. There are several things on the horizon
with the 5 year strategic plan, realignment, etc. Chief Dolan would like to brief the
RCAC on these initiatives before it goes public in early 2010.
He is suggesting a meeting on Saturday, December 19 at 1:00 p.m. The meeting location is
TBA.
I will need a reply by end of business on this Friday as to if you will be able to attend.
The response of the group will dictate if the meeting will occur or not. I will tabulate
the responses and notify the group of the decision. Thanks.

Dwayne, Michael:
I feel confident that the RCAC chairs would very much like to meet with RPD,
but I'm concerned that the meeting date suggested by Chief Dolan may not
work for folks due to its proximity to the holiday. I know I can be there,
but even if a handful of us attend, it's a far cry from representing the
opinions and concerns of the 18 CAC districts. Is there any flexibility as
to when we can meet with Chief Dolan? I'd like to ensure that as many
interested RCAC representatives as possible will be able to attend.
We have been frustrated that city-organized meetings that are billed
specifically for RCAC chairs to attend are sometimes being scheduled without
input from the RCAC regarding the group's availability (recent
case-in-point: Planning's RCAC listening session on the UDO). Dwayne (and
Kristen), do you have any suggestions for pro-actively avoiding this issue
in the future?

Ana, thanks for raising this concern. While I'm delighted that Chief
Dolan wants to keep us in the loop, the Saturday before Christmas is not
a good time to meet. I'll have relatives in from out of town by then.
Would any of these options work?
* If it's not urgent, having a presentation at our January meeting.
* If time is of the essence, update the chairs in writing so we we can
review the information on our own schedules. This would also make it
easier to share with our CAC members. A liberal use of cut & paste plus
linking could produce an informative document that wouldn't take too
much time to prepare.
