2021-05-20 Leeward Exh A (Discussion on amending agenda)

Home

VITOUSEK: Aye. Any opposed? VAN PERNIS: I oppose. VITOUSEK: Oppose, okay, one, five to one again. With that, we will close the public testimony, or close the public meeting, and we will go into executive session. How are we going to do that? JACKSON: So with Zoom, we have what is called a breakout room. VITOUSEK: Okay. JACKSON: So what I'm going to do is I'm going to put the planning commissioners and Corp. Counsel Schlueter and Noriko in a breakout room, and then—so bear with me, this is the first time I've done a breakout room when the commission is done with the executive session, you guys will have to come back to this main meeting, and it will have a little icon for you to click to come back to the main meeting. So we will all still be here; the testifiers, the applicants, staff will be in the main meeting. VITOUSEK: Okay. JACKSON: Okay? So let me, let me try to set that up,just give me a few minutes here. DARROW: Good luck, Maija. JACKSON: Thank you. The commission went into executive session at 10:16 a.m.for the purpose ofconsulting with its attorney regarding questions and issues pertaining to the commission's powers, duties, privileges, immunities, and liabilities,pursuant to Hawai`i Revised Statutes 92-5. At 10:25 a.m. there being no further legal questions, the commission came out ofexecutive session at the call of Chairman Vitousek. The commission left the Zoom breakout room and rejoined the main meeting, and Chairman Vitousek called the open session back to order at 10:26 a.m. VITOUSEK: Okay, we are back from our executive session. Thank you for your patience. At this time we'll be seeking two motions from the commission: One motion being whether to postpone agenda item 2 as requested by the applicant, and one item being whether to allow public testimony on this agenda item. So if the commissioners would like to make a motion so we can have a discussion. DARROW: Mike, can I just make a suggestion? 6 EXHIBIT A
