Hawaii County Police Commission <br />Regular Session Minutes <br />July 15, 2005 <br />Page 6 <br />and Commissioner Steckel seconded that the complaint is unfounded. The motion <br />carried unanimously. <br />Complaint HPC 05 -09: (Complaint was deferred at previous meeting due to lack of a <br />finding.) Complainant was involved in a vehicle accident. She complained about the <br />manner in which the officer spoke to her and alleged that the officer should have cited <br />the other driver. Commissioner Frazier moved and Commissioner Kaoiwi seconded to <br />not sustain the complaint. Discussion: Chair Bertsch stated that he is not sure about <br />the finding and feels that they should exonerate the officer. The motion carried with <br />nay votes from Commissioners Lundkvist and Morimoto. <br />• Complaint HPC 05 -11: (Chair Bertsch requested a reconsideration of the complaint.) <br />Complainant alleged that an officer wouldn't tell her neighbor to turn down their music <br />and that he was disrespectful. At the last meeting, the commission found the complaint <br />to be unfounded and that the incident didn't occur as described. <br />Commissioner Frazier took over as pro tempore chair. Commissioner Bertsch <br />requested a reconsideration of the finding of "unfounded" and recommended that they <br />reclassify it to "not sustain" as there was insufficient evidence to either prove or <br />disapprove the allegation. He moved and Commissioner Morimoto seconded to <br />reconsider the finding. Ayes were called by Bertsch, Mitchell, Morimoto, and Politano. <br />Nays were called by Frazier, Kaoiwi, and Lundkvist. The motion died due to a lack of a <br />quorum vote. The original finding of unfounded stands. <br />STATEMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC ON AGENDA ITEMS - None. <br />ANNOUNCEMENTS <br />Chair Bertsch announced that the next meeting is scheduled for August 12, 2005, in <br />the Waimea Civic Center Conference Room, 67 -5189 Kamamalu St., next to police <br />station. <br />• Collection of files and documents. - Done. <br />ADJOURNMENT <br />The meeting was adjourned at 12:20 p.m. <br />SUBMITTED: <br />JOSIE PELAYO, SECRETARY <br />PPP <br />,a"& -X &-Zu, <br />JOHN M.
