Walker, Commissioner Flores and Chair Replogle voted aye by voice vote, <br />Commissioner Kaneshiro opposed by voice vote, motion carried <br />Mr. Flores stated they were revisiting the top twelve because the assessment form was <br />different from when they did their first list but the intake form was the same. Next year <br />everyone can resubmit new forms. <br />NEW BUSINESS <br />• Discuss funding sources <br />Chair stated Ms. Hecht asked the Commission to submit a letter to the Council and the <br />Corporation Counsel asking that they support the proposed language from the committee. <br />Mr. Campbell stated they could use most of her language in generating a letter. Ms. <br />Garovoy stated they should refer back to their report in which they state long term <br />funding was necessary. <br />Ms. Springer asked if it would it be possible to submit testimony recommending <br />reinsertion of that language that was left out. <br />Mr. Campbell stated what he understood was they couldn't print the ballot until the <br />primary because they won't know who will be on it anyway. <br />Mr. Kaneshiro stated in listening to Ms. Self as to why it wasn't included was because the <br />people who submitted it didn't submit the document that included it therefore he couldn't <br />see the Commission submitting a letter saying it should be this way. <br />Mr. Campbell stated as Ms. Hecht stated, it essentially guts the purpose of the 2 %. It <br />doesn't state what the monies are for; it's just a general statement. Mr. Campbell stated <br />in his opinion they didn't need to evaluate what the Committee had done and have been <br />trying to do; they made their case clear and it's persuaded him to take exception to the <br />way they worded the ballot. <br />Ms. Self stated the wording was left out by the Committee. It was never changed; it was <br />never submitted, they left it out. <br />Mr. Flores asked if there was anyway they could support it the way it was originally <br />written. <br />Ms. Self stated the best person to submit a letter to would be Connie Kiriu. Ms. Garovoy <br />stated with a "cc" to the Mayor and Council. <br />Mr. Yung stated since they didn't submit it properly, should they get an attorney to work <br />with Lincoln guys. <br />24 <br />
