Transcript of Meeting of April 29, 2000Page 31 of 64 <br />RAY: Can everybody have a seat so we can start again. <br />Next on the agenda, we have Minutes Approval. Minutes of the April 1st meeting, can I have a motion <br />to approve? <br />HIGASHI: So moved. <br />YOSHIYAMA: Second. <br />RAY: Okay, discussion? All in favor? <br />COMMISSIONERS: Aye. <br />RAY: The minutes of April 12th, can I have a motion to approve? <br />HIGASHI: So moved. <br />YOSHIYAMA: Second. <br />RAY: Discussion? All in favor? <br />COMMISSIONERS: Aye. <br />RAY: Financial Status Report as of 3/31, $72,311.48. We really don’t have a projected, kind of, post- <br />balance, in other words, to give us the projected balance when the majority of our legal expenses and <br />administrative expenses are wrapped up because that’s a figure we really need to take a look at before <br />we seriously can engage the options for educating and publicizing the Charter Amendments. But my gut <br />feeling is that we’re in pretty good shape. Chris gave me a just-off-the-top-of-his-head ‘guess’timate for <br />his expenses to wind things up somewhere in the range of about $6,000. Of course he doesn’t know how <br />long we may carry on this discussion and where it may go, so that was based on, I think, wrapping <br />things up pretty quickly and developing the language. <br />SANTANGELO: John, can I interrupt? So, in that vein, in the last Commission, as I understood, there <br />was a lot of stuff he had to work on into the midnight hours that created some expense, and we haven’t <br />done that. Is that what you’re saying? Have we been pretty clean with you, or would we have to throw <br />something extra into the ball game to effect that? <br />YUEN: Well, you guys have been absolutely clean with me. <br />SANTANGELO: I just meant voting crap. I hate these minutes. <br />YUEN: No. <br />RAY: I’m glad you answered that directly. <br />YUEN: I’m expecting, to use your phrase, you’re not going to load a lot of crap in. You know, the <br />packet that I put together, which is based on the preliminary votes that were taken, is pretty close to <br />being ready to go. If you decide to take things out, that’s a few minutes with a red pen and they’re out. <br />There are a few little fine points that need to be worked on. If there are any new amendments, I have to <br />spend a little time working with them, putting the exact language together. But for the most part, on the <br />file://\\coh01\cohweb\council\charter_commission\minutes\minutes 04-29-00.html7/1/2011 <br /> <br />
