there was evidence that a Council member and I didn't want to <br /> name the Council member...for some personal reasons...not that I <br /> know him but a Council member who failed to disclose an indirect <br /> personal interest in zoning proposal because he would have <br /> benefited from the road improvements...so that's a perfect <br /> example of a Council member receiving a direct benefit...but the <br /> court noted that you know such failure to strictly comply with the <br /> disclosure requirement implicitly disqualified the Council member <br /> until he made the required disclosure so...so perhaps if the person <br /> had you know...disclosed it...I'm not too sure what the Chair is...I <br /> mean what the Chair would've done but the Chair could've just <br /> said okay vote...why because well your vote is just one of nine and <br /> from what I know about the voting...this particular situation you <br /> know we had six in favor which is the majority...in this <br /> situation...as I understand from what has been...disclosed and <br /> what I know about the case...there's no substantial financial and/or <br /> personal interest directly benefiting Council member Eoff from her <br /> deliberation or voting on bill 108. So even if Mr. Guzman had <br /> made some allegations of such...interest...you know there's <br /> nothing substantial about it...even if you assume a conflict of <br /> interest...Council member Eoff should be able to deliberate and <br /> vote on bill 108 so long as she disclosed it in writing prior to <br /> deliberation and voting of bill 108...ownership of the rental unit at <br /> Kona Islander Inn...this unit is already zoned for hotel and resort <br /> type uses...bill 108 would now require her to register her unit as a <br /> short-term vacation rental with the Planning Department and <br /> neither does she gain additional land use privileges from the <br /> enactment of bill 108...do you have any further questions or <br /> comments please contact me...I'11 be sitting right over there. <br /> Thank you. <br /> Ms. Kahakalau: Thank you Mr. Kamelamela...Mahalo...that concludes our <br /> statements from the public on agenda items. <br /> 3. APPROVAL OF THE REGULAR SESSION MINUTES OF FEBRUARY 13, 2018. <br /> (10:32 a.m.) <br /> Ms. Kahakalau: Our next item on the agenda is the approval of the regular session <br /> minutes of February 13, 2018. <br /> Mr. Goodenow: Madame Chair I move that we approve the minutes. <br /> Ms. Kahakalau: Any discussion? <br /> Mr. Goodenow: I need a second. <br /> 8 <br />
