Ayes: Commissioners Akamu, Hustace, Lopez, <br /> Lui, Yadao, Yoshina, and Chair Kossow. <br /> Noes: None. <br /> Abstain: None. <br /> KOSSOW: Is there any further amendments that need to be made, that anybody sees fit <br /> in the Commission? <br /> LUL Yes, I move that we remove then the Abstentions clause from the voting procedure <br /> section of the rules because kanalua supersedes it. <br /> KOSSOW: Motion is on the table to remove Abstentions from, what is this, 6.C.? <br /> LUL It's 6.13. Oh, yeah, it's 6.C. Yeah. <br /> KOSSOW: Of removing 6.C. from the rules that was recently adopted under <br /> Abstentions. Is there a second? <br /> LOPEZ: I have to second just to get into discussion, please. It's Kawena. <br /> KOSSOW: Mr. Lopez seconds. Any discussion? <br /> LOPEZ: Yes. I like the idea, but I'm not sure if this is—how this gets affected. Do we <br /> need to go through the amendment process? In public hearing, such? Or are we adopting <br /> rules to replace Abstentions with the kanalua concept? Can you clarify that please? <br /> MELLON-LACEY: This is Diana. I'm sorry, I'm not sure I'm understanding your <br /> question. I mean, all changes to the rules would be presentedI mean we would present <br /> these rules and then the public would have the opportunity to comment on them, but that <br /> would be true of any changes that we make. <br /> LOPEZ: Alright. So, then we have adopted these rules. <br /> MELLON-LACEY: Yes. We took a vote. <br /> LOPEZ: We've already changed, from this moment forward, requires the amendment <br /> process to kick in. One of which is, introduce brining in the kanalua concept and the <br /> other is striking the Abstentions because of the kanalua concept. That's the way I'm <br /> understanding where we are now. (Pause.) So, both of those motions would go into an <br /> amendment process. Is that where we are? <br /> MELLON-LACEY: Yes. <br /> KOSSOW: From my understanding, it was going be to the next meeting <br /> 15 <br />
