The primary role of the SEWRPC Environmental Justice Task Force is to enhance the consideration and integration of environmental justice throughout the regional planning process. The specific purposes of the Task Force are:
The roster for the Environmental Justice Task Force contains representatives from throughout the Region. Appointment to the Task Force is for renewable two-year periods. Seven of the members selected represent the counties in the region (one per county). Three additional members represent Milwaukee, the Region's largest city; three more were chosen to represent Kenosha, Racine, and Waukesha, the Region's next-largest cities, one member each; and one more was chosen from the remainder of the region. The fifteenth member is an at-large representative.
The Task Force meets as appropriate and necessary, usually on a quarterly basis. All meetings are held in locations that are physically accessible to people with disabilities and served by public transportation. Non-members are also able to attend meetings and comment, as all meetings are open to the public and provide reasonable comment opportunity. Meeting materials, including agendas and formal presentations may be found here.
