<br /> month for someone that…anybody else in our department can <br /> do…it’s not that hard…it’s not that difficult and I want to know <br /> exactly what she has been doing from December 18 on because <br /> there’s no…as far as I know…she’s putting in thirty hours but <br /> what is she doing in those thirty hours…no one knows…I have no <br /> idea…and I want…I want the departments to be transparent and by <br /> the way the contract was signed by Wil Okabe so it was initiated <br /> by the Mayor’s office not by Public Works…it was initiated by the <br /> Mayor’s office…why is the Mayor’s office getting involved with <br /> the Public Works department contract…I’m sorry I’m getting <br /> irritated but… <br /> <br />Mr. Goodenow: I understand…. <br /> <br />Ms. Novak: I’m just furious about this…I can spend $36,000 on equipment that <br /> we desperately need in the department but we’re spending it <br /> on…we’re doing wasteful spending as far as I’m concerned… <br /> <br />Mr. Goodenow: Okay…thank you for that and as I kind of suggested earlier…part <br /> of the process I mean we’re really here at the narrow question of <br /> was the Ethics Code violated but it’s also important a broader <br /> sense for people to feel they can talk about issues and it’s a public <br /> meeting so you get to say it…I see Ms. Cook-Lauer there so the <br /> press gets to hear it…that’s part of this whole process all be it to <br /> you know…we’re really here only on the Code of Ethics but thank <br /> you…. <br /> <br />Ms. Novak: And I think the Code of Ethics was violated… <br /> <br />Mr. Goodenow: Okay…well we’ll move on to that now…we will need a motion <br /> though before further discussion…if I may get one….we can <br /> propose one for the sake of discussion and I might get after <br /> discussion you might want to vote down your own motion…I’ll <br /> allow that I mean…it would either be approve right or dismiss or <br /> we have options we should ask our counselor here…. <br /> <br />Mr. Yoshimoto: Maybe we want to take a break so we can kind of gather our <br /> thoughts…sounds like no one’s ready to make a motion I think we <br /> should yeah…hold off on it… <br /> <br />Mr. Robinson: I want to read HRS 76-77-16… <br /> <br />Mr. Yoshimoto: Why don’t we take a break…. <br /> <br />Mr. Goodenow: Well we could continue this matter or…. <br /> <br />17 <br /> <br /> <br />
