He was informed that it would be <br /> the "County." <br /> Mr. Takahashi stated that there are qualifications required by law and asked what <br /> qualifications they would like listed. Mr. De Lima asked what qualifications are <br /> required by law. <br /> To address Mr. De Lima's inquiry, Ms. Noda distributed the current position <br /> description for the Human Resources Director( SEE ATT. "B"), the Hawai`i <br /> County Charter, Section 7-13 and 1.4 (SEE ATT. "C"), and the Hawai`i Revised <br /> Statutes, Section 76-12 and 76-13 (SEE ATT. "D") regarding the power and duties <br /> of the director. <br /> Mr. Takahashi inquired when they would like to receive the names and the <br /> scheduling of applications for interviews. <br /> Mr. De Lima commented that if more than two people meet, they would have to <br /> provide notice of meeting. He suggested that they form a permitted interaction <br /> group of two people to do the initial review of the applicants with the Director <br /> prior to their next meeting on August 21St, and the Board could convene an <br /> executive session in order to interview the applicants. By that time, he and Chair <br /> Rowe would have reviewed all the applicants and would be ready to participate in <br /> any discussion. Both Board Members Kuewa and Rabago agreed to serve as <br /> members of the permitted interaction group. <br /> Ms. Rabago confirmed that she and Mr. Kuewa would meet and make a <br /> recommendation to the Board. <br /> Mr. Kuewa had concerns regarding the position description. He didn't see any <br /> qualification requirements regarding "supervises" or"leads" although it did state <br /> in the hand-out from Ms. Noda, "exercise leadership." He asked Mr. Takahashi <br /> what the classification requirements would be in the announcement. <br /> Mr. Takahashi directed the Board to Page 3 of the position description.
