Ms. Eoff: Yes which is why I answered his first email the way I did <br /> hastily...I don't believe that what I own is being regulated by <br /> this...it's not being grandfathered in and it's not a dwelling unit in <br /> a residential area which is in my perception what we were tackling <br /> with this bill...my condo is in a resort node...it's operated since 67 <br /> as a little mini hotel...I don't advertise it...I don't do anything...I <br /> don't manage it...it's like people call the Islander for reservation <br /> and then they assign them a room...so I look at that as a different <br /> animal and so that's why I replied in a hastily manner...and I'm <br /> sorry for that I know that caused some heartache all the way <br /> around so... <br /> Ms. Sumner-Mack: That's alright...I depend on my CPA for everything...I don't know <br /> anything about taxes but...you know it might bare thinking about <br /> Benjamin Franklin saying it's not enough to do the right <br /> thing...you must be perceived to be doing the right thing...so <br /> maybe it would be nice to be a little bit more clear and cautious... <br /> Ms. Eoff: Exactly...I think I learned a lot from this... <br /> Ms. Sumner-Mack: Thank you. <br /> Ms. Kahakalau: Thank you...Mr. Goodenow or Mr. Robinson... <br /> Mr. Goodenow: As far as conflict of interest in the Council rules...it does state that <br /> you should refrain from deliberating on an action and shall be <br /> excused from voting thereon...but it talks about a substantial and <br /> substantial means an interest which is sufficient in magnitude to <br /> influence ones action and that would be up to the Council...you <br /> know as the bill goes thru the process...right...and let's say it's <br /> amended or what not...you still would disclose that to the Council <br /> right hey I have something of an interest I don't believe it's <br /> substantial and would be up to them to decide that...is that correct? <br /> Ms. Eoff: Yes. <br /> Mr. Goodenow: So I...I feel comfortable with that...I don't know if our Corp. <br /> Counsel wants us...you know you have to draft the informal <br /> advisory opinion and is there any clarification you'd like from <br /> us... <br /> Mr. Yoshimoto: Okay...yes so in terms of the five hundred dollar fee that's...in <br /> question...I think Mr. Guzman had raised it earlier right...he <br /> 34 <br />
