ethics complaint. I took the time. I put it in the newspaper. I have people questioning <br />me—Terri, why did you do that? Why did you expose yourself? Why did you put the <br />Napeahi name on the front page? How shame. That’s the kind of ridicule I’m getting. I <br />put my life in front of you because it is important to me. It is my reputation as a Napeahi <br />to be here, to talk truth. I have for generations had people coming in here, talking truth, <br />and I am not ashamed to be here to talk truth. If I was, I would be home criticizing <br />people and not coming up here, standing up firmly for what I believe in. It has nothing to <br />do with character-bashing. It has a lot to do with what is right for the people. Engage <br />with me. Look in my eye and know that I am not talking about anything else but me and <br />why I complained. For the same reason, that you’re doing the same reason the county <br />did, same reason. Now who else do I complain to? OIP? Is there someone else that I <br />need to complain to, so that I can be heard? <br /> <br />MR. DILL: Ms. Napeahi, like I said, we will address this by the board level. You’re <br />doing the right thing, okay— <br /> <br />MS. NAPEAHI: --I need to know the next step, because nobody’s listening to me. The <br />county council? You’re not listening to me. <br /> <br />MR. DILL: I am. <br /> <br />MS. NAPEAHI: Who else do I go to? <br /> <br />MR. DILL: I am. I am listening to you. This board is not complete at today’s meeting. <br />The process we follow is when someone files a petition, we take it very seriously, number <br />one. Number two, we need to make sure that it’s treated fairly and thoughtfully in a way <br />that is pono, okay? As chairman, that’s what I demand of this board. <br /> <br />MS. NAPEAHI: Pono. <br /> <br />MR. DILL: That’s what I said, yeah. <br /> <br />MS. NAPEAHI: You understand pono? <br /> <br />MR. DILL: I’m not going to answer that question, all right? I’m trying to explain to you <br />that we’re taking your petition seriously. We are listening to you. <br /> <br />MS. NAPEAHI: You are? <br /> <br />MR. DILL: Yes. I am. I am listening to you. <br /> <br />MS. NAPEAHI: You are listening to me. <br /> <br />MR. DILL: That’s what I volunteered to do, Ms. Napeahi. Okay? And to do it in a way <br />that’s impartial. Okay? I will do everything I can to make sure that this board follows <br />the correct rules and addresses your complaint seriously through the processes that the <br />government has set up, okay? <br /> <br /> <br />
