KAWAHA: If there's, I have a couple more amendments to make; and that would <br />be on the first and second pages, just for clarification on some of these. <br />The first page, Section 1, we're changing the wording "government requirements" to "agency <br />action." So it would read, "The current structure of appeals to agency action in the County of <br />Hawaii is duplicative and conflicting." Going down on the fifth line where it begins "The <br />amendments shall eliminate," we're just adding the word "and", which would read, "and" after the <br />words, "County Charter." So that sentence would read, ""The amendments will eliminate the <br />existing conflict with Section 5-6.3 of the County Charter -." <br />GOLDSTEIN: And. <br />MCINTOSH: And? <br />BALOG: Okay, so what are we supposed to do with that sentence? <br />KAWAHA: Oh, I'm sorry. It's supposed to read, okay, "The amendments will eliminate <br />the existing conflict with Section 5-4.3 and Section 5-6.3 of the County Charter relating to the <br />Planning Commission and Board of Appeals," and then, "which states in part," etc. It's just to <br />make it clear that the proposed amendments would be referring to both to the Planning <br />Commission and Board of Appeals. <br />And going down further to number "1," the second sentence, "Because variances are, by Charter, <br />a discretion -." <br />GIANNINI: Discretionary function. <br />KAWAHA: Discretionary action. <br />MOSHER: Action? <br />GIANNINI: Function. <br />KAWAHA: Okay, we're deleting the words, "a discretionary function," and replacing it <br />with the words "a discretion action decided by the Planning Director." <br />MCINTOSH: Discretionary action. <br />BALOG: Discretionary, huh? <br />GOLDSTEIN: Discretionary action. <br />0 <br />
