Committee on Women's Issues

Monday, April 24, 2017 · 10:00 AM AM · Committee Room - City Hall

TL;DR

The Committee on Women's Issues held hearings on four proposals related to gender, racial, and other equity assessments and training across city agencies. All four items were subsequently laid over by the committee, meaning they were postponed for further consideration at a future meeting rather than voted on.
