FUJIKAWA:There was a motion made by McCallto hire a hearings officer and <br />seconded by Commissioner Smith. Any questions? Discussion? <br />SPRINGER:Discussion? <br />FUJIKAWA:Springer? <br />SPRINGER:I pose my standard question to the Planning Director who directed <br />us at our last meeting that there was perhaps a diminishing of funds for the purposes of <br />outsourcing a hearings officer. <br />YUEN:Well, at the last meeting, we, I don€t remember which meeting it <br />was, but I did encourage the Commission to take up some of these, at least some of the, <br />what seemed to be the simpler Contested Case Hearings themselves. And the <br />Commissiondidaverygoodjobonthelasthearinginhearingthematterandgettingit <br />through to a vote at the meeting. However, this one, given the number of parties and the <br />involvement of attorneys it€s likely to be more complex. So if it is the Commission€s <br />wish to have a hearings officer for this one, we€ll endeavor to find the funds; and I€m sure <br />we€ll be able to do that. <br />SPRINGER:Thank you. <br />FUJIKAWA:Sure. Any questions, Commissioners, with the Director? None? <br />Then a motion has been made to farm it out. Any other discussion? None? Staff, go <br />ahead. <br />HAYASHI:Commissioner McCall? <br />MCCALL:Aye. <br />HAYASHI:Commissioner Smith? <br />SMITH:Aye. <br />HAYASHI:Commissioner Springer? <br />SPRINGER:Yes. <br />HAYASHI:Commissioner Thibadeau? <br />THIBADEAU:Aye. <br />HAYASHI:Commissioner Alameda? <br />ALAMEDA:Aye. <br />19 <br /> <br />
