SCHOEN: So I will say something to the effect that the Board has considered the two communications that you've submitted, and based upon its review the Board —if you want to submit a petition regarding Ms. Naeole and whether or not she violated the Code provision on fair treatment, please submit documentation for- LUM: - -A petition stating that, including documentation to that effect, or however you say it. CHAIR: Okay. LUM.• I want another petition with only heron it. I don't want just more of this. I want a petition that has her name on it— GENTRY. -- Clean, concise— L UM: - -and back -up on it. 'And while we're at that, is there any place on this petition form, a place to put a name — there's no place on this form that says who is this against, really, just what is your interest. But it doesn't say – SCHOEN: It doesn't, but the rules state that you must name the person -- LUM.• - -So we might want to just clarify this, and make it a little bit easier for somebody who doesn't have the rules in front of him. SCHOEN: Okay. LUM.- Might make Mary's job easier. But anyway, I want a new, clean petition on just that one item, and how you're going to say that, I don't know. SCHOEN: Is that a decision by the Board, the entire Board, then? NICHOLSON: Yes. CHAIR: Make sure you include that we are not going to consider the other items in this communication. L UM.- Yeah, she said that at the beginning- SCHOEN: - -And what I will do, actually, is I'll draft a letter and then provide it to Mr. Dill for his review and autograph. CHAIR: Okay, sounds good. SECRETARY: So do you guys want the petition form —I'll put a blank for who it's about, but do you want one petition per person, like if it's about more than one person, like Bill Takaba and Wesley Takai were recently all on one— GENTRY.- - -It should be per person. Each person should be afforded an opportunity- 31
