Merit Appeals Board November 26, 2024 <br />MS. MATHEWS: Second. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Any further discussion? Mr. Hong? <br />MR. HONG: I'm sorry, and I know I don't —I'm not a Board member and I contribute to the <br />discussion, but I would note that we're —Mr. Kaye and I are prepared to proceed this morning, if <br />the Board wants to us to do that. We're ready to proceed. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Okay. Mr. Hong notes that they are ready to proceed but Ms. Tavares may <br />need additional time. <br />Also, we would be providing you deadlines for you to submit your documents, exhibits, witness <br />list, et cetera. So, I think the best is for us to schedule the hearing in January and allow both <br />sides the County and Mr. Hong the time to provide the documents, which are exhibits, <br />witness lists, any motions, any memorandums. <br />I mean, it's nice that you are prepared but what —we also have to give the County their time to <br />prepare as well. So, to make it fair to both sides. <br />Okay, any other comments? We're still in the discussion phase of the motion. Okay, if not, I'll <br />start a rollcall vote to schedule the hearing for January yes, Suzi? <br />MS. BOND: She knew that there was a possibility that there would be the hearing today, right? <br />CHR. CABANAS: No. <br />MS. BOND: So, she could have been prepared, correct? <br />CHR. CABANAS: No. The agenda was to discuss the jurisdictional issue and then, if we had <br />the jurisdiction to hear the appeal, to schedule another hearing. Any other comments or <br />questions at this time? <br />Okay, if not, I'll start a rollcall vote with Mr. Wiseman. <br />MR. WISEMAN: Aye. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Ms. Bond. <br />MS. BOND: Aye. <br />MR. WISEMAN: Just a moment, Madam Chair? <br />CHR. CABANAS: Yes, Mr. Wiseman? <br />MR. WISEMAN: Voting "aye" for a meeting that will be after my resignation <br />Page 6 <br />
