Any discussion on this motion? <br /> There was no discussion from the Commissioners. <br /> Nahale-a: All those in favor say, "Aye." <br /> The Commissioners voted "Aye." <br /> Nahale-a: Any opposed? <br /> There was no opposition by the Commissioners. <br /> Nahale-a: Motion carries. Thank you. <br /> The motion was carried unanimously. <br /> Baricaua: Thank you. <br /> VII. Unfinished Business <br /> Nahale-a: There's no unfinished business for today. <br /> VIII. New Business (10:34 A.M.) <br /> Greenwell: Brandon, in situations like this, why can't they have their public hearing in <br /> Kona on December 5th; because everything is approved already, right? <br /> Gonzalez: That is a good question. Depending on the type of license being requested <br /> for, especially in the matters of an original license or first time being issued, State law <br /> requires at least sixty days' notice. That's why it's two meetings out instead of one <br /> meeting out. <br /> Greenwell: Thank you. <br /> Gonzalez: So the meeting that was continued for The View at the request of the <br /> applicant, they do give up something. Some Licensees need approvals within a certain <br /> time frame according to their business model. The tradeoff for The View asking for the <br /> continuance is that all their hearings get pushed back and their approvals get pushed <br /> back. But because they were not an original license, it was more of a stepping <br /> into...well it is actually an original; but they were able to get a temporary license <br /> because our rules allow it, so it didn't disrupt their operations. That's another <br /> distinction. <br /> Thomas: What about the fact that the whole business enterprises that are on the Kona <br /> side, but all the hearings are here, does that in any way inconvenience those people? <br /> NOVEMBER 7, 2019-LIQUOR COMMISSION MINUTES 24 <br />
