<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> they have continued to operate or continued in the violation during the time of the appeal they <br /> will have au additional fine that's accrued. So then they have to be careful about their decision <br /> to continue. <br /> <br /> ALAMEDA: Okay. I was just thinking I thought it might, I like the proposal because it <br /> would limit the frivolous appeals, if you will. <br /> <br /> WATANABE: Do we have any further Mr. Woodward. <br /> <br /> WOODWARD: Well, I think it's basically a great idea. You can't use the Board of <br /> Appeals as an out if you've committed a violation to avoid the penalties; and that's what people <br /> are doing right now. You know, if the IRS tells you owe money, they are not going to wait, you <br /> know; and you've got to pay it now. Same thing should be true here, that is if there has been a <br /> violation you pay the fine. If, you know, you take it to IRS court, or to the Federal courts, and <br /> you win then the IRS gives you your money back. Same thing ought to happen here. If you go <br /> to the Board of Appeals and you win, then we give you your money back, not a problem. <br /> <br /> WATANABE: Thank you. Do we have any further comments? <br /> <br /> ALAMEDA: Well, I'm ready to make a motion or Are we deferring? <br /> <br /> WATANABE: Yes, we would be deferring, so maybe it'd be simpler if we defer by <br /> consensus to continue to the next West Hawaii meeting. With that, if everyone is okay, all in <br /> favor of continuing to the next West Hawaii meeting, please say aye. <br /> <br /> COMMISSIONERS: Aye. <br /> <br /> WATANABE: Any opposed? Thank you. By the way, for the record there was no one <br /> signed up to testify for this. <br /> <br /> The discussion ended at 10:05 a.m. <br /> <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Q- Y'` - ulurrw~ _ <br /> Sharon M.
