Inclusivity Board Ordinance

Westminster City Council in early 2015 formed an Inclusivity Task Force to help guide the city as it examined a potential permanent board or commission that would consider issues of inclusivity, diversity and other issues in our community. In October, the Inclusivity Task Force provided recommendations to City Council on the formation of an Inclusivity Board.  On Nov. 9, 2015, City Council unanimously approved the formation of the Westminster Inclusivity Board. City Council recruited and appointed board members in spring 2016 and the first Inclusivity Board meeting was held in June 2016.

The ordinance for the Inclusivity Board provides information about the Board's mission, vision and powers and duties. View the ordinance.
