How we make decisions

We use a process called Racial Equity Impact Analysis (REIA). This helps us think about how our decisions affect people of color.

When we use REIA

We use this process when:

• Making new laws or changing existing ones
• Changing City policies
• Trying to see how the recommendations of boards and commissions affect racial equity.

By keeping racial fairness in mind, REIA helps us make better decisions.

What we consider before deciding

When we make decisions, we consider:

• Policies
• Practices
• Programs
• Budgets

• See City Council updates
• See legislation status updates
