MS. JARMAN: Correct. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Is there any discussion on if we should request an amendment be <br />prepared to amend Section 12 -1.3 to be consistent with Section 11- 5(b)(4). Is there any <br />discussion or recommendations? <br />MS. JARMAN: I think it's a good idea. <br />Ms. Jarman moved to ask Commission Attorney, <br />Levi Hookano to prepare and amendment which <br />would amend Section 12 -1.3 to be consistent <br />with Section 11- 5(b)(4) of the Charter. Seconded by <br />Ms. Osborne and carried by the following vote: <br />Ayes: Commissioners Honma, Jarman, Kaulukukui, <br />Kawauchi, Kealoha, Nahale -a, Shumway, <br />Osborne and Chair Haitsuka. <br />Noes: None. <br />Absent: Commissioners Fuertes and Unger. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Mr. Hookano, can we have a proposed amendment prepared which <br />would make Section 12 -1.3 consistent with the language used in Section 11- 5(b)(4) of the <br />Charter. <br />MR. HOOKANO: Yes. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Thank you. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Is there any discussion on Section 12 -1.4? <br />MS. JARMAN: Mr. Chair, can I ask Ms. Nakamoto a question? <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Yes, Ms. Jarman. <br />MS. JARMAN: In Section 12 -1.4 your office has 30 working days to determine if there are <br />sufficient signatures. Is 30 days long enough for your office? It would either be 25 percent <br />of the total number of the persons registered in the district, if it were for a Council Member, <br />or in the County, if it were a County wide election such as the Mayor. <br />MS. NAKAMOTO: Yes, I think that 30 days is sufficient time for us to verify. Going back <br />to your question on the Initiative, based on the 2008 election, 15 percent would be <br />approximately 10,000 signatures. <br />MS. JARMAN: Is anybody good at math, what would that make 25 percent? <br />27 <br />
