Oshkosh DEI committee approves minutes, hears presentations, and adjourns

The Oshkosh City Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee met Jan. 26, approved minutes from its Nov. 24 meeting and heard public comment and committee updates before adjourning.

A motion to approve the Nov. 24 minutes was moved and seconded and the roll call produced a sequence of 'aye' responses in the transcript (participants named include Grama, Gunuk, Miller and Bulow/Toman in the roll call exchange). The committee heard a presentation from Eliza Farrow of the Northeast Wisconsin Rainbow Collective describing new drop-in services, volunteer needs and events. Committee member Carl provided operational details about early voting for the Feb. primary and previewed a donor-funded, wheelchair-accessible trackless-train project and related fare proposals. A motion to adjourn was moved, seconded and carried.

No formal policy votes or funding approvals were taken at the meeting; members agreed to share event information on the DEI Facebook page and to circulate materials ahead of the next meeting for data-transparency priorities.
