A 2/3 Vote Pursuant To HRS Section 92-4 Is Necessary To Hold An Executive Meeting CHR. CABANAS: I've been informed by our secretary -reporter that the August 30'h 2023, executive session meeting minutes were inadvertently not enclosed with our packets today. So, we will delay the approval of those minutes until our next meeting, which is October 25h, 2023. Thank you, Glynis, for informing us. Communications (Item 5) CHR. CABANAS: There are no "Communications." New Business (Item 6) CHR. CABANAS: And there are no "New Business" for the Board to consider at this time. Unfinished Business (Item 7) A) Communication No. 23-05, Received On July 10, 2023, From Appellant Appealing A Classification Or Reclassification Of A Particular Position Action (Denial Of A Reallocation Request From An Engineering Support Technician III To An Engineering Support Technician IV) By The Hawaii County Human Resources Department (Note: At Its Meeting Held On July 28, 2023, With Both Parties Present, The Board Scheduled A Hearing Date); And Communication No. 23-05.01, Received On September 5, 2023, From Appellant Rescinding The Appeal And To Cancel The Scheduled Hearing CHR. CABANAS: We are now on Number 7, "Unfinished Business." There are two communications. And so, our Board members are reviewing, specifically, the two communications but I think more so, Communication 23-05.01—the communication from the Appellant rescinding his appeal and requesting cancelling the scheduled hearing for October.
