Mr. Balsis stated that during executive session, the Board members discussed the <br />sufficiency of their notification to petitioners and respondents as to when a petition is agendized. <br />The Board duly notifies both petitioners and respondents when a petition is scheduled for <br />hearing. At the hearing, testimony is heard and discussion is held, and once the Board votes to <br />dismiss the petition or provide an advisory opinion, discussion on the matter is closed. A <br />petitioner is not usually notified of the subsequent meeting, when that petition is on the agenda <br />for review of the dismissal order or advisory opinion, because in essence the matter is closed. <br />Mr. Balsis also stated that the Board complies with the Sunshine Law by posting its <br />agendas at least six days prior to a meeting. Each agenda is posted on the County's website, and <br />a hard copy also gets posted on the County's bulletin board. He apologized that in December <br />2012, the agenda was posted on the bulletin board incorrectly, because only the first page was <br />visible. <br /> <br />7. ANNOUNCEMENTS <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis announced the Board's next meeting: March 13, 2013, at 10:00 a.m. in Room <br />1501 of the Hawaii County Building, or at another location if necessary. <br /> <br />8. ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis adjourned the meeting at 11:17 a.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted: <br /> <br />Mary E. Fujio, Secretary (with her signature) <br />
