Mr. Yada stated he knew the Commissioner's were concerned if the notice went out with <br />the new suggestion form. <br />Ms. Self explained to Ms Garcia about the new Suggestion form that was created to <br />gather more information so that the Commission can better evaluate properties. <br />Mr. Yada stated they were interviewing for the Clerk III position. <br />Recess: 11:00 a. m. <br />Reconvened at 11: 04 am. <br />Mr. Gilmartin asked if they could do site visits. He stated if they had maps, they might <br />be able to better tell what the ground situation looked like and hopefully it might help the <br />Commission better evaluate some of these properties. They will have a better picture of <br />what ought to be recommended. <br />OFFICE OF THE CORPORATIN COUNSEL'S REPORT <br />Ms. Self stated that she didn't have anything to report. <br />CHAIRPERSON'S REPORT <br />Mr. Kaneshiro stated the Commission should consider some type of status report on what <br />was happening; we owe it to the public to report to them about what was happening. It <br />has been a while and we have not seen any successes. <br />Ms. Self stated that the North and South Kohala committee puts out a newsletter for them <br />and it's on the website so members and the public can see the status of what's going on. <br />Ms. Self suggested they produce something on their website that gives status of offers <br />that have been made and anything that's public knowledge. <br />Mr. Gilmartin asked about press release. <br />Mr. Kaneshiro agreed that was a good idea. Mr. Kaneshiro also mentioned the Hamakua <br />Times. <br />Mr. Flores stated if the Commission puts in an ad before the end of this month, they <br />could announce that the Suggestion forms are due by June 31, 2007. Mr. Flores also <br />stated if this Commission does a public release article about what's going on, they could <br />add in the deadline to turn in the forms. He also suggested adding in the website <br />information. <br />Mr. Gilmartin stated he knew a woman that writes for the West Hawaii Today and her <br />articles also gets picked up in the Hawaii Tribune - Herald. <br />7 <br />
