WJ: I'd like to make a motion to table this matter until we can get a <br />KI: I second this motion. <br />CHAIR KK: There is a move by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Mr. Inouye, that we table the <br />motion until we get further information from the Campaign Spending <br />Commission. <br />DE LIMA: Later at this meeting. <br />CHAIR KK: Okay. Any discussion? No discussion. Okay, all those in favor say aye. <br />WJ: Aye. <br />KI: Aye. <br />CHAIR KK: Aye. Motion is carried, unanimous. <br />DE LIMA: we'll call them right now. <br />CHAIR KK: Thank you, Mr. De Lima. <br />(Bob Williams resumes as Chair) <br />CHAIR: And the next order is business, and again I'd like to deviate from the agenda, <br />with the Board's , to accommodate the members of the public who <br />are here, and skip right over to the next item, Petition 205 -07, update on David <br />Kimo Frankel's petition seeking implementation and enforcement of Section 2- <br />91.3 of the Hawaii County Code pertaining to the registration of lobbyists. <br />Mr. Fuke, would you please join us. Subsequent to our last meeting, Mr. Fuke <br />put forth I thought a well regarded discussion, and we've also just now <br />received the opinion by official counsel to the Board, "What is a Lobbyist," <br />which I've not really had a chance to readjust yet. It came in this morning. <br />BLT: The first page is the part that's relevant to Mr. Fuke, which basically —this is <br />of course subject to the Board agreeing with my reasoning, that under the <br />Hawaii County Code's definition of a lobbyist, Mr. Fuke, because he is <br />required to directly communicate with agencies such as the Planning <br />Commission and the County Council to try and get the applications that he <br />processes approved, that when- <br />PKO: - -I'm just suggesting if no one's had a chance to read it yet, maybe we should <br />break for a few minutes so they can read it and then be better able to ask you <br />questions. <br />CHAIR: And I direct the Board also to Mr. Fuke's communication, you've seen that, <br />it's a letter dated October 27, subject complaint of David Kimo Frankel. Note <br />that he's registered as a lobbyist. <br />11 <br />
