JULY 14, 2017, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A7 city staff time and resources on the issue. Anna Siqueira da Silva, another mem- ber of the group requesting the resolution, countered that immigration was only one piece of the proposal that includes ethnic, religious, sexual and ability diversity. “(The resolution) is inclusive of lots of different groups that are consistently ex- cluded. There are many different types of diversity and we want them to be includ- ed,” Siqueira da Silva said. The one idea that gained some traction during the meeting was the possibility of the city adopting an equity and empower- ment lens for decision making. An equity and empowerment lens is a decision-mak- ing tool that serves as a reminder to policy- setters to consider the impacts of decisions on frequently underrepresented groups (see illustration Page A1). “It helps remind us to ask the right questions,” said Clark. “There are other levels of government that have done it and it's not changing policies or practices at this time, but an opportunity to take it to the next level.” Councilor Bruce Anderson said that idea sat well with him, “I kind of like that (equity lens) and not reinventing the wheel.I think what I like is that it will serve as a guidepost to the city staff and put into action what we are contemplating.” While the meeting ended without plot- ting specifi c next steps, Councilor Roland Herrera said he was hopeful. “I really believe that something tangible and actionable will come out of this. The goal is to include everybody and they de- serve to be included,” Herrera said.
