NEW BUSINESS 1. Sub - committees A. Barbara went over her proposal to establish three sub - committees on transportation, managing growth, and mdlama i ka `diva. The scope of the sub - committees would be to prioritize, for implementation, all action items which are listed in the PCDP and to identify the criteria used to prioritize them. There was discussion about adding committees to address action items and amendments but members felt the sub - committees could do that for their subject areas. B. Jeffrey moved to approve sub - committees listed in Barbara's communication and then consider adding another. Madie seconded. Larry B. commented that the three sub- committees can work with the matrix. Rachelle talked about the matrix as a record - keeping tool that consolidates information and has incorporated the amendments under each action item. Larry B. said they will email a PDF to everyone. Larry B. explained the timeline needed for amendments and said Jay's office is the lead. All voted in favor of Barbara's proposal as written. C. Jeffrey proposed adding a budget and finance subcommittee to look for grants and supplemental funds for community activities. Frank seconded. All in favor. D.
