BLT: I think that, `cause I've been following up with Mr. Levin on this, was <br />that, I don't think there's a problem with they want to post this on the <br />community bulletin board, I think there would be a problem if he <br />wanted to use County machinery to reproduce the copies of it, <br />because that would be using government property for a non - <br />government purpose. And so I don't have a problem if he <br />disseminates it through some mechanism, `cause we... I think within <br />the County building you have people who put up posters for concerts <br />that are for profit making purposes, so if you'd want to disseminate <br />these information... <br />RW: That way. <br />BLT: That way. That's not a problem. But there is a problem if he uses <br />County equipment to reproduce them. <br />RW: Well, moreover I wouldn't want a... <br />BLT: That's like giving free advertising. <br />RW: Yeah. I would not want to give the distributor another one... more <br />things to do on time, to say on your . Yeah, I think public <br />bulletin boards is perfect, but not more than that. <br />CHAIR: We need a motion to accept the Informal Advisory Opinion. <br />RW: I would like to make such a motion with the addition of a letter that <br />Bobby could draft for us to state that that's our position, that we want to <br />make sure that it's appropriate and not disseminated or reproduced <br />which takes up sufficient time. <br />CHAIR: Do you have a copy of the petition? <br />RW: Not with me. <br />CHAIR: Let me read you the Findings of Fact. The Findings of Fact. "When <br />Mr. Levin, who is employed in the Office of the Mayor, signed up for a <br />cell phone under the County's contract with AT &T, the salesperson <br />informed him that there was a plan exclusively available to Hawaii <br />State, County and government employees. The salesperson asked <br />Mr. Levin to share this information with others that might be interested. <br />Mr. Levin has no financial interest in AT &T, nor would he benefit in any <br />way, if any government employee were to sign up for the plan. Mr. <br />Levin is requesting an opinion to determine if it is permissible to share <br />this information with other employees. To the extent that these <br />findings of fact constitute conclusions of law, the Board so concludes." <br />
