Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: The goal of the SCORE process is to define racial equity, develop a racial equity resolution for Council consideration, and guide the development of racial equity capacity building and racial equity tools for the City to apply a racial equity lens to decision making. Staff from Race Forward and members of the Racial Equity Alliance will provide an update on their efforts.
Policy Considerations: Council directed staff to include consideration of racial equity in future policy and budget decisions. While the workplan for SCORE extends over multiple years, staff has developed a draft interim racial equity rapid response (IRRT) tool to be utilized to guide short-term decisions related to the deployment of federal American Rescue Plan Act resources provided to the City for the recovery from the coronavirus pandemic. An update on the implementation of the IRRT was provided at the April 26, 2022 Racial Equity Committee meeting.
Economic Impacts: None.
Environmental Considerations: This action does not constitute a “project” as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines.
