Home

Ms. Kahakalau; Yes. We've already spoken with the clerks about that. We are also hoping that we will have a least one or two more members by the next time. If anyone has any names to submit, Emily will be happy to forward those so that we have a full Board that would be great. Mr. Goodenow: One question for Counsel on that. It's really not an agenda item but I think we're alright. As far as the Sunshine Law, members discussing leadership of a Board. There's three (3) of us so just two of us talking is the majority so there's an issue there. When there are more members, I don't know, I mean I guess I can look it up I don't want to put you on the spot. Mr. Yoshimoto: It's in your book Mr. Goodenow. Sunshine Law. Mr. Goodenow: I want to make sure that we all are cognizant of that. Mr. Yoshimoto: I would just encourage that the discussion to be held in open session. Mr. Goodenow: Maybe we should just do that anyway. Why even, regardless we'll take the higher road and not discuss it period. Mr. Adams: I'm not sure what the discussion would be, but I think that from the purposes of understanding quorum. As I understand our Rules of Practice and Procedures we have three (3) of us, the majority of the total Board when we have a vote. Our ability to vote affirmatively on anything is three (3), a requirement of three (3). So at the current time any affirmative vote as I understand it I could be wrong, an affirmative vote requires a unanimous vote of the three of us. Once you have more than three (3) then it's gonna change. At the moment any quorum is three (3) and then any vote that takes place has to be a majority of the Board size not just Board as populated. Mr. Yoshimoto: So I would encourage that we not go any further cause this is not in the announcement section. Madame Chair please make the announcement of the next meeting.
