MS. GARSON: So, what we’ll do is we’ll just, let’s articulate clearly that there is going to be three separate committees. MS. NICHOLSON: Do we need an action to do that? MS. GARSON: I think that would be good. Somebody can move to establish, you can do it all at once. Three separate committees, first committee being this with these members, second committee being this with these members. MS. NICHOLSON: With Bill ex-officio in all of them. MOTION:MR. MATSUDA: I move that we establish three separate committees, one for Budget and Operations and Policy Consolidation. The second committee is Revenue Enhancement and the third being the Technology. MS. NICHOLSON: Second? MS. WONG: Second. MS. NICHOLSON: Discussion? All in favor? Aye MS. O’HARA: Yeah, I do have something. I think you want to have their names. MS. GARSON: You’ll have to say the names later. MS. O’HARA: I just, the discussion being this is to be able to evaluate, categorize and take action on the responses that we’re getting to our questionnaire. MS. NICHOLSON: I think probably beyond responses. It’s also looking at whatever that team chooses to look at. MS. PROVALENKO: Having a meeting with the department heads and stuff like that depending on what type of responses we get. MS. O’HARA: Okay. MS. NICHOLSON: All in favor, aye? All: Aye. MS. NICHOLSON: Any oppose? (None) MS. NICHOLSON: Okay, we are now officially, we have a structure. Now the hard part starts. MR. TAKABA: Who is on the committees again? MS. NICHOLSON: The operations and, kind of a cumbersome one, Operations, Budget, Policy and Consolidation are Gloria and Glen, and you of course. 23
