Human Services Element was prepared by a subcommittee of the General Plan Committee under
the guidance of the goals contained in the Redlands 2000 report. Nancy Hansel and Jane Holden
did the research and prepared initial drafts. Staff then worked with John Blayney to incorporate
the ideas into the General Plan format. The Human Services Element recognizes and addresses
the need for a coordinated effort to ensure there is an equitable distribution of human services.
Policies evolve around six primary areas: (1) coordination; (2) family needs; (3) day care; (4)
recreation; (5) health; and (6) education. Under coordination, implementation policies include
creating an Office of Human Services and Relations and the creation of a Human Services
Advisory Commission. Councilmembers expressed concerns relating to funding these services
and indicated they desired input from the organizations involved. It was also suggested the
mandatory language be reviewed. Day care implementing policies include providing incentives
to developers who incorporate day care in their projects and the preparation of a day care plan.
