MR. CHANG: Yes, and that is actually what I wanted to clarify; that at that last meeting, it will be a regular meeting, you will have testimony. At that point, you can, if you so choose, you can tweak your Draft Plan further to create your Final Plan. MR. MELROSE: One last question; that is I believe we have to meet once in December in order to approve the Final submission to the Elections Office. So that means we need to have reviewed and approved the report that Chairwoman Siracusa mentioned. So we will have one meeting in the month of December to having reviewed the report and approved the report. So there is one more meeting in December. CHR. SIRACUSA: We may very well decide to have another meeting, but that won't be where we take public testimony, because the maps will have already been completed, and it would just be to work together on the final report. I'm looking for these communications that Bo was talking about. Bo is asking us to close file on Communication 51 and the related communications so that we can -- -Wait a minute, I am confused about some processing here. We moved to close file on Communication 51; that motion should have been to close file on Communication 51 and all related Communications. Is that what you meant, Bo? MR. KAHUL Yes. In effect, I think what we are doing is we are closing file on all the previous testimonies, so that at least we can consider them in our dialogue. CHR. SIRACUSA: Right. So actually, I will ask the maker of the motion to re -do it. Who did that? Bo it was you who made that motion, yes, to close file? Ms Poindexter moved to close file on COMM. 51. and all related Communications. Seconded by Mr. Carvalho. CHR. SIRACUSA: Now we can go into discussion. Shyla. MR. MELROSE: Do we have a strategy for how we want to approach this? Can we just talk with the Commission? What do we want to take on first? CHR. SIRACUSA: We left off, we were working on Draft Plan—B. MR. KANUHA: We didn't finish Draft Plan B. CHR. SIRACUSA: Yes, every time we have gone around with these maps, we have always ended up calling it a day before we really finished working on Puna. We can't put it off any more. MS. POINDEXTER: So, can we start with Puna first, and on that map where we left off? I think we worked with the Hamakua Districts 1 and 9. We came to some type of thing. We will go back and look at it again and maybe possibly tweak it, but I think Rene has a good point, and I suggest that we start in the Puna area. 21
