Hawai`i County Charter Commission -10 April 25, 2019 <br />adjust the property taxes accordingly and therefore I would not be in favor of <br />putting it in the Charter. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Commissioner Hamano. <br />MR. HAMANO: Yes, I would like to know from our Corporation Counsel <br />whether you know, this proposal if enacted, would violate any portion of Hawai`i <br />Revised Statutes or the Constitution. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Mr. Yoshimoto. <br />MR. YOSHIMOTO: Executive Session. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Without objections, let's move in to Executive Session to <br />consider the question. <br />MR. HENRICKS: We would need to have a motion and a successful vote. <br />CHR. ADAMS: I am trying to apparently not follow rules. Do I have a motion to <br />go into Executive Session? <br />MR. HAMANO: So moved. <br />MS. TODD: To discuss... <br />CHR. ADAMS: One second. <br />MS. TODD: To discuss the specific issues related to the taxing authority and the <br />authority of a Charter under the Constitution and the Hawai`i Revised Statutes. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Who made the motion? <br />MR. HAMANO: I did. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Alright and the second? (inaudible off mic) Alright, motion by <br />Commissioner Hamano, seconded Commission Saquing with the addendum, <br />friendly addendum provided by Commissioner Todd. <br />MR. HENRICKS: And also just generically to comport with HRS, to discuss the <br />County's liabilities, immunities, privileges, and that nature. That's what would <br />allow for the Executive Session. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Great. That as well. <br />MR. HENRICKS: Correct. Thank you. <br />Page 38 <br />
