get a motion to move forward and schedule an informal investigation into this matter. <br />And in the meantime, if we can collect as much information as we can—the precedent, <br />former rulings by the state, county ethics board, as well as take a look at the collective <br />bargaining agreement to see what sort of wording is in that regarding this matter. Is that <br />all right? I want to get as much information as we can. Go ahead. <br /> <br />MR. HISASHIMA: Can you also include the following: the agenda for the meeting, who <br />initiated the meeting—the union or the county, because the agenda would show what the <br />meeting is going to be about. And if there is a memorandum to all employees to attend <br />this meeting, and we could have a copy of that memorandum. Thank you. <br /> <br />MR. DILL: And Ms. King, from your knowledge—as far as your knowledge is concerned, <br />it was a required meeting? <br /> <br />MS. KING: I have no knowledge other than what I read in the newspapers. So perhaps <br />you might contact— <br /> <br />MR. DILL: --We’ll try to find out— <br /> <br />MS. KING: --West Hawai‘i Today. I know they cannot release the names of the people <br />who complained, but perhaps they could share documentation with you so that you don’t <br />have to spend as much time. <br /> <br />MR. DILL: Okay. All right. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. <br /> <br />MS. KING: Thank you. <br /> <br />MR. DILL: I’d entertain a motion to schedule an informal hearing on this matter. <br /> <br />MR. BALSIS: I move that we move forward and schedule an informal hearing, getting <br />the information that was requested by both Chairman Dill and – <br /> <br />MR. DILL: - Mr. Hisashima. <br /> <br />MR. BALSIS: Thanks. <br /> <br />MS. KING: May I ask a question? <br /> <br />MR. DILL: Yes, ma’am. <br /> <br />MS. KING: What is the—you’re talking about an informal hearing. What’s the <br />difference between an informal hearing and formal hearing? <br /> <br />MS SCHOEN: Informal hearing is conducted in an informal manner. Oftentimes the <br />Board will just have people come up and provide information. <br /> <br />MS. KING: But would it be at a meeting like this, that’s scheduled and on the calendar? <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
