Mr. Goodenow: That the petitioner... and he has the right to say you know what <br />you're gonna dismiss this ... I want a formal hearing... <br />Ms. Ace: Okay. <br />Mr. Goodenow: That's how the process works.... <br />Ms. Ace: Okay ... so then back your point that that should be clearly stated or <br />clearly offered ... okay thank you ... and you say it was ... okay I got <br />it ... thank you. <br />Mr. Tucker: The only brief contribution I might make to that was in my <br />research prior to this ... to me it was a hearing approaching... was <br />the ... looking at the code and finding reference through the <br />procedural rules based on HRS 91-10. <br />Mr. Goodenow: Which applied to the formal hearing. <br />Mr. Tucker: Well ... the rules don't say that ... it just says HRS 91-10. <br />Mr. Goodenow: <br />But you know I really think this is great that ... just the appropriate <br />time is now... <br />Mr. Tucker: <br />Well... <br />Mr. Goodenow: <br />Thank you. <br />Mr. Tucker: <br />That's why watching the newspaper ...

I am curious about how <br />to effect one additional change in the code itself ... and if that can <br />be done with the support of the commission... or the commission <br />remove itself from code issues and it has to be proceeded to with <br />council ... my suggestion would be and I would be looking for this <br />in the future ... I would... there's nothing anywhere in the Ethics <br />Code that requires County employees to be factual or truthful to <br />anybody at any time ... and that was just a jaw dropping omission <br />27 <br />
