Mr. Goodenow: I would add to that under the fair treatment section... 2-83(d) it <br /> says right...nothing herein shall be construed to prohibited an <br /> officer from introducing bills and resolutions, serving on <br /> committees or making statements or taking action in the exercise <br /> of the officer's legislative functions. So clearly you're...that's <br /> a...an exception to the fair treatment section and then as far as <br /> conflict of interest...I believe that... <br /> Mr. Robinson: We know what you mean... <br /> Mr. Goodenow: Well okay... <br /> Ms. Eoff: I shouldn't...what I put in here...addressing that...we just listed <br /> it...I just listed that...no officer or employee shall take any official <br /> action directly affecting a business or other undertaking in which <br /> the officer or employee has a substantial financial interest...so I <br /> don't believe that the legislation would be of any substantial <br /> financial interest to me...if you're talking about the registration fee <br /> as being...applied to some and not others...yes that was already <br /> drafted into the bill...it's up for discussion...it was a starting point <br /> that planning was adamant on keeping in because they want have a <br /> mechanism to pay for the program...for regulation and...some <br /> people have said that's too much...some have said that's too <br /> little...you know it's like...that's up for discussion at the time that <br /> the Planning Commission and the County Council reviews all the <br /> details of the bill...but yes I felt like I was acting within my <br /> legislative duties to take this on like I said...I became the Chair of <br /> the Planning Committee this year....this term...and this seemed <br /> like something that someone with...a season legislator would need <br /> to handle because all of the questions and...concerns that had <br /> already been raised and continue to be raised regarding this...it <br /> takes an office and my office has been you know very diligent in <br /> trying to answer questions and...make sure that the bill is in the <br /> presentable form is basically our role since it was given to us... <br /> Ms. Kahakalau: Thank you Councilman Eoff...go ahead... <br /> Ms. Sumner-Mack: I'd like to just ask one question to kind of follow up <br /> because...what I've gotten from my review of the material is that <br /> you're ownership is in a different classification so it's not affected <br /> directly by the bill... <br /> 33 <br />
