MOSES: Any questions, Commissioners? Thank you. So, can—no further testimony from the <br />public. Can we have a motion to close public hearing? <br />HENKEL: So moved. <br />MOSES: Second? Is there a second? <br />IKEDA: Second. <br />MOSES: It was moved by Commission, Commissioner Henkel and seconded by Commissioner <br />Ikeda. All those in favor? <br />COMMISSIONERS: Aye. <br />MOSES: Any opposed? Okay, Commissioner Ikeda, at the last hearing you moved to <br />reconsider agenda item 6 before us now. Do you affirm or withdraw your motion to reconsider <br />at this time? <br />IKEDA: I affirm. <br />MOSES: Is there a second? <br />HEAUKULANL The last thing in the world I thought I was going to do today is support a <br />reconsideration of our approval of this funding for the study. I came loaded up today to fight on <br />the merits like almost everyone else in this room but I can't, I can't let this go and just float over <br />there into nowhere land and this study never get done. I'll second the motion. <br />MOSES: Upon Commissioner Ikeda's motion to reconsider and second by Commissioner <br />Heaukulani, the motion for reconsideration is now open for discussion. Commissioner Ikeda? <br />IKEDA: Yes, you know, believe it or not, I do support the funding for the study, and this is the <br />only way we can save your money, or have the money, or the study funded, otherwise it'll be <br />stuck in the Finance Department. And, most of the problems are procedure procedural <br />problems. And, I think, I really believe you know like it says, it only identified one vendor <br />create Native Hawaiian Health Study Review Board, and some of the Rule 12 of the geothermal <br />fund. I think all of these things can be worked out if the group get together with the Planning <br />Department. And, so that's the reason for the consideration [sic]. It's not that we against <br />funding the study. We support the study. I think everyone here supports the study. We just <br />want to make sure that you're getting it or do it correctly. Otherwise, it'll never get done, and <br />you guys, you know, like so I'm telling making you feel good, it goes to the Finance, and then <br />nothing gets done. This way, at least it can be moved forward. <br />MOSES: Commissioners, any further discussion? <br />19 <br />EXHIBIT E <br />
