38 Greg asked for a motion and Douglas Payne moved that: Does an ordinance adopting the Kona 39 Community Development Plan Ordinance amend all the other County Codes referenced in the 40 KCDP? 2nd: Barbara DeFranco. All in favor yes. Question to be sent to the Planning Director. 41 2. Roberts Rules of Order: Terry Dunlap distributed copies of Robert's Rules of Order to the AC 42 and reminded them that the AC decided at a previous meeting that they wanted to follow these 43 rules. This book will allow the AC to review the Robert's Rules of Order and help the AC 44 confirm that they still want to follow them. Greg Ogin reminded the AC that this book is detailed 45 and everyone should decide if this is still what they want to follow. Bobby Command discussed 46 the options of the format.
