<br /> <br />Ms. Ranfranz: Yes, I have, and no response from Mr. Honma. Nothing. And that is why I’m <br />here. <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: Let me just give my perspective on this. I think from a procedural way that that’s <br />probably an efficient method. But, in my understanding of the article, members of the public <br />have every right to come to us and we take a look at their petition and determine whether or not <br />there’s anything there and we can move forward. And it’s not the most efficient way but it’s just <br />part of what the public has the authority, has the right to do. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: Go ahead. <br /> <br />Mr. Hisashima: I agree, however, I disagree. And the disagreement part is this, the County <br />hires people to run the pool. As management they are responsible for their employees, their <br />interaction with the community. Number one, we don’t have that authority. That’s why again <br />from the last hearing we had and I’m always going to push this, let the Department head do it. If <br />can’t do it, find somebody else. We’re like the last resort because if she’s not accepting what the <br />Department Head says and she still yet pushes the violation of ethics, then yes, by all means <br />come to us. But give the Department Head that opportunity to address this issue because how <br />many more issues, we don’t know about. And as part of management that is good management, <br />that’s why they’re getting paid to do what they do. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: In this particular case, quoting Ms. Ranfranz, she did… <br /> <br />Mr. Hisashima: I understand. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: …go to the supervisors and so she is using us as a place of last resort. <br /> <br />Mr. Hisashima: Well I didn’t know. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: I didn’t know until you just asked. With that in mind I’m going to ask the <br />members of the Board do we want to go further into a informal or formal hearing or dismiss the <br />matter? <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: It seems to be my day for making motions. So I move that we proceed with an <br />informal advisory hearing… <br /> <br />Mr. Henricks: I second that. <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: …on this petition. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: It’s been moved and seconded to go into an informal advisory hearing, that’ll be <br />at the next Board meeting, I believe. Is there any further discussion on this? <br /> <br />Mr. Hishashima: Can we have our participants here? Director, Mr. Lee. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: I don’t see why not. Go ahead counsel. <br /> <br />Ms. Schoen: If the Board wants to order it, then you can. <br /> <br />18 <br /> <br />
