HAWAII COUNTY CHARTER COMMISSIONPage 4 of 33 <br />a meeting. I would suggest that you go with one a month as a regular meeting and everything else be a <br />Special Meeting because advertising for a Special Meeting is not that big a deal and the Commission has <br />been doing that for all the meetings so far anyway. And rather than try to fit everything - I can tell by <br />just listening to the discussion and people’s scheduling that it may work out better to have one regular <br />meeting and then to have Special Meetings where there’s a bit of flexibility on the time and place. <br />RAY: Okay, anymore input on the meetings? Yes, Mr. Alonzo. <br />ALONZO: Mr. Chair, as far as the location site, it’s going to be <br />right here? It’s available throughout the next year? <br />RAY: I think it’s safe that this is a good site to put. <br />ALONZO: Can we lock in all second Wednesdays of each month from now until when this committee’s <br />dissolved? <br />RAY: Sure. Okay, any more input on the meetings? Anything else? Does anybody else want to suggest <br />any other changes in the Rules of Procedure? So Chris, what’s the process for making this change? <br />BALOG: Marni made a motion so if someone seconds her motion then you can take a vote. I’ll second <br />her motion. <br />RAY: Okay, so the motion is that the meetings in the Rules of Procedure would read, under Section IV <br />B, regular meetings will be held on the second Wednesday of each month at 5:00 p.m. All in favor. <br />COMMISSIONERS: Aye. <br />RAY: Opposed? Okay. And the only other change would be just to correct the address as for the <br />contacting the Hawaii County Charter Commission. Okay? <br />YUEN: And now to finalize this, we will have to run a notice in the paper. It will have to be called a <br />Public Hearing and if any members of the public want to testify about the rule, they can, and after that <br />the Commission can vote to finalize the rules and they get sent to the Mayor for signature and they don’t <br />become official until the Mayor signs them. <br />RAY: So it’s my understanding that until that happens, we’ll be having Special Meetings. <br />YUEN: Right. <br />RAY: Okay, moving on. New Business. Before we go ahead, on the minutes, one thing I forgot to <br />mention. Reading through the minutes, I was amazed. I think I must have close to the world record for <br />"you know". Anyway, I talked with Mr. Yuen and he said that it’s okay if I instruct our Administrative <br />Assistant to eliminate the extraneous filler, the "you know’s" and such from the minutes so just to let <br />you know, we’re going to go ahead and do that. <br />IRVINE: I think that would be a good idea. <br />HERKES: Do we get to vote on that? <br />RAY: New Business, Item VIII. Mr. Wurdeman is here. I asked him to come in and so I’d like to go <br />file://\\coh01\cohweb\council\charter_commission\minutes\minutes 8-11-99.html7/1/2011 <br /> <br />
