Hawaii County Charter Commission -16 July 24, 2020 CHR. ADAMS: We, we, we... just did 53.2, now we are looking at 53.3. MS. SAWING: Okay. Got it. CHR. ADAMS: Which has to do with the proposal summaries. MS. SAWING: Okay, sorry about that. CHR. ADAMS: Mr. Henricks. MR. HENRICKS: Just for clarification, these were the summaries that Chair Adams had put together for each proposal and just so, as to Ms. Galimba's question earlier, how this kind of all works together, when we publish the full text, these summaries will be included. These are intended to give a snapshot of the Commission's perspective and rationale but still provide it, in my opinion, in a you know, relatively impartial manner and so that's what these summaries are for. And the reason that this is before you today is that the summaries that were originally crafted for each proposal, needed to be modified due to the fact that certain proposals were consolidated and that is why the Chair seeks approval of these modified summaries. So again, they will be used as... to supplement the full text as part of the educational effort and outreach to the community. MS. SAWING: Thank you Mr. Henricks. So I appreciate what was set forth here and I think we should move to accept it. CHR. ADAMS: Thank you. Is there any other discussion or comments on the motion to approve the proposal summaries as amended through the ad hoc committee's work? Hearing none, Mr. Henricks, I would ask that we take the roll on this vote please. MR. HENRICKS: On the motion to approve the summaries for each proposal as provided in the Communication 53.3: Mr. Bergin (aye), Ms. Galimba (aye), Mr. Hamano (aye), Mr. Hopkins (aye), Ms. Leithead-Todd (aye), Ms. Rice (aye), Mr. Roehrig (aye), Ms. Saquing (aye), Ms. Springer (aye), Ms. Zelko-Schlueter (aye), Chair Adams (aye). Chair you have 11 votes in favor. CHR. ADAMS: Thank you Mr. Henricks. The motion passes unanimously. Page 11
