Mr. Robinson: I would second that...in just in seconding that it would mean that <br /> he could still bid...before the award of the contract he would have <br /> to get the opinion from us. <br /> Mr. Adams: Are we in discussion? <br /> Mr. Robinson: Oh no...I'm sorry...I just jumped ahead. <br /> Mr. Adams: That's fine. So in the discussion...I'm not aware that the contract <br /> has to wait on our...any decision that we make. I think here it just <br /> talks about the contract being void. So if the decision was made on <br /> contract and even before we ruled on the petition...as long as the <br /> ruling on the petition is that there is no conflict of interest for his <br /> wife then...assuming that he won the bid...then there wouldn't be <br /> an issue. The contract would only be void if there one the officer <br /> or employee failed to comply with the disclosure requirements or <br /> the Board found that there's conflict of interest or preferential <br /> treatment involved. So it doesn't stop...to me this doesn't say that <br /> this stops the contract process for Mr. Oshiro. All Mr. Oshiro has <br /> to do is make sure he submits a copy of this petition requesting <br /> review by the Board as a part of his bid process. Now...I would <br /> make this comment that actually that's not what says in the <br /> ordinance. What the ordinance says that the officer or employee <br /> will submit the copy of the letter or petition requesting review by <br /> the Board which makes absolutely no sense. Right...because the <br /> bid is being done by the non-county employee in this case right. <br /> By the private entity even though it's the spouse. Yet at the same <br /> time...the wording is that the officer or employee are the ones that <br /> are going to submit the copy of the petition or letter in the bid <br /> process. That's confusing and that's something we may want to go <br /> back to the Council with to clean up at some point. <br /> Mr. Goodenow: We can add that to our other letter... <br /> Mr. Oshiro: Add it to your list. So my wife submits that? <br /> Mr. Goodenow: I think if you just have come next time...we're gonna be alright. <br /> Mr. Oshiro: When we bid this job? <br /> Mr. Goodenow: When you bid it...you say that a petition has been submitted and <br /> it's pending. <br /> Mr. Adams: That's right...so in the ordinance you'll submit a copy of this. <br /> Mr. Oshiro: What do I submit? The one that was emailed or this one. <br /> 11 <br />
