MS. GARSON: <br />I believe that they are all volunteer community members. <br />MS. NICHOLSON: <br />Not just those, but all of these. <br />MS. GARSON: <br />I think they are all volunteer community members. Obviously they may <br />have ex-officio members that are department people. <br />MS. NICHOLSON: <br />So, Gloria, you are suggesting that we go to the County <br />departments that are sort of in charge of these committees to get feedback versus going <br />directly to the committees which are citizen by committees. <br />MS. WONG: <br />I’m suggesting going directly to the committee, to the citizens in the <br />committee to make the judgment for their function. They’d have to work with of course <br />the County. <br />MS. NICHOLSON: <br />Any comments from the commission members? Thoughts how to <br />best tackle this? <br />MS. GARSON: <br />Maybe one of the things to do is we can put these proposals on your <br />next agenda and send a notification to the boards and see if they want to have <br />someone come and give a statement. What’s going to happen, if you send them a <br />communication now, I’m not sure about when they meet, you’re not going to get a <br />response for at least probably a month because they’ll have to meet. So if you send <br />them a communication, maybe we can catch them at a time for them to come and <br />discuss it or something. It will take time to get a response from the board, is what I’m <br />saying. And we saw that when we sent them the other communication because they <br />don’t necessarily meet monthly. Some of them will be quarterly. <br />MS. WONG: <br />Madam Chair, if it will be easier, I can summarize and make a <br />recommendation from our committee. I just didn’t want to do that before inviting <br />comment from this group’s commission members. <br />MS. NICHOLSON: <br />And that would include the consolidation of say the South Kohala <br />Community Development Plan Action Committee and the South Kohala Community <br />Development Steering Committee? <br />MS. WONG: <br />Yes. Three items. <br />MS. NICHOLSON: <br />So, if you do that, we put that on the agenda for the next meeting <br />and we would approve those as recommendations from your subcommittee? <br />MS. WONG: <br />Yes. <br />MS. NICHOLSON: <br />And in the meantime, put this on the agenda for the next meeting <br />so that all of these subcommittees would be aware that we’re discussing this? And then <br />could we make sure that all the committees know that this is going to be on the agenda <br />because some of these committees may not have a clue. <br />6 <br /> <br />
