Discussion for how to proceed with in person meetings and having hybrid meeting models -Tarik: What if 90% of the planning council continues to stay virtual, what is the format for that? -Jaseudia: We can definitely do that, if we have a meeting at City Hall the City would like for the liaison to be on site. We can also get governance and membership to talk about some updates for meeting policy b. Discuss new meeting times and locations -Tarik: emphasis on having meetings where the need is greater -LJ: I agree, these meetings shouldn’t be for our convenience, they should be for the consumer’s convenience -Jaseudia: Houston Tilson area is a good spot -Barry: I had indicated in the discussion last time that I am for us going to other counties and having meetings, but last I remember the highest concentration is in Travis County by far -Brooks: I think Barry’s point with the data makes a lot of sense and I like Jaseudia’s suggestion with our existing relationship with the University -Barry: I’m just speaking for myself, but I’d like a room where we have a little social distancing space -LJ: Absolutely -Deena: I will add that AAC has a large multipurpose room with projector that is supposed to be open to any city department to use c.

World AIDS Day a. Discuss plans for event/day -Jaseudia: We had a request from Delta Sigma Theta to partner with HIVPC in person funded by Delta Sigma Theta, would like to have some speaking, food, and fellowship. Will be connecting them to the planning council. Will get proclamation out to the mayor -LJ: I want us to start in January to focus on next year so that next year’s event will be interactive, in the park, and be really successful. As of this year I don’t see much that we can do because we don’t know what the mayor wants to do -Jaseudia: Do you still want to do the event with Delta Sigma Theta and the event with the Aging Conference on that same day, we will pay for some members to attend that conference? -LJ: Yes -Brooks: We talked about this today in our committee meeting as to whether we consider these in-person engagements, the plans we currently have for January are reasonable and sound -Barry: On World AIDS Day the US Government’s theme is ending the HIV epidemic, equitable access, and everyone’s voice -Jaseudia: They would like to have a discussion and dinner format with Delta Sigma Theta because they have budget for it, we could do the proclamation there and invite other people from the community as well 6. COMMITTEE UPDATES a. Discussion on Proceeding with each Committee’s deliverables over the next few months -Barry: In next business meeting, could make reviewing the financial report document an agenda item for the November Business meeting b. Governance/Membership -Brooks: Interviewed Sam Keffler and voted to approve him to the council, he has indicated a strong interest in Strategic Planning and Needs Assessment. i. Membership Reflectiveness ii. Recruitment and Retention -Brooks: Taylor shared with us some events that Hill Country Ride for AIDS is doing including a gathering at Austin Beerworks on December 1st for World AIDS Day, which could provide us a tabling opportunity, and a larger kickoff on January 20th on South Congress. These could be some good opportunities for us to do some outreach. iii. Consumer Advisory Boards -Brooks: I suggested an email that Jaseudia could look over and refine to see if the CABs are meeting regularly and how can we best explore and farm potential planning council candidates from those existing bodies. Glenn shared that this was historically our dry period and more people join in the spring, but I’d be interested in exploring how to engage the CABs to potentially get some new candidate members iv. STAR Awards -Brooks: We went with option 1 for the STAR Awards, we also discussed plugging some of these graphics into the survey monkey being sent out to bring a nice energy to the survey. For the timeline we want to launch the nominations of the 15th of November and explore sending reminders through contacts and have the reward ceremony somewhere around the 15th of January depending on location and public health concerns at that point. -did not meet, new members waiting for approval letter from mayor c.
