Attorney's Office. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: This Communication relates to the comments made by Mike Kagami <br />when he addressed the Commission relating to the expansion of the role of the Prosecuting <br />Attorney's Office to include crime prevention matters. I would support Mr. Kimura's <br />proposed amendment. <br />MS. JARMAN: It wasn't clear to me exactly what he wanted. I think he wanted us to add the <br />language in the City and County of Honolulu resolution that is underlined. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: I think he provided that as an example. It's not very clear from our <br />memo, but I think that is what he is proposing. <br />MR. SHUMWAY: Yes, Mr. Chairman, it seems to me that is the case. He also talks in his <br />letter about changing the way Council Members are represented. There are two separate <br />things. I don't see language for either, and it makes it kind of hard for us to tackle. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: He also included the Chapter on the Corporation Counsel, but I don't see <br />any proposed language that he wants to change. <br />MR. SHUMWAY: Mr. Chairman, is it possible that we can request that he submits some <br />specific language for the proposed changes to make it easier? <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Do you want to request that the Prosecuting Attorney's Office submit <br />some language for the proposed amendments that they are requesting? <br />MR. SHUMWAY: Yes, I guess I would ask Levi if that makes sense. <br />MR. HOOKANO: I think this is something similar to what Mike Kagami did bring forward a <br />few meetings ago. We could check with their office again, to submit something specific as it <br />would read in our Charter, specific to our County. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Do we want to postpone any action on this Communication until our next <br />meeting and make a request to the Prosecuting Attorney's Office to submit language for <br />proposed amendments? <br />Mr. Shumway moved to postpone Communication 28 <br />to the October 9, 2009 meeting. Seconded by <br />Mr. Unger and carried by the following vote: <br />Ayes: Commissioners Fuertes, Honma, Jarman, <br />Kaulukukui, Kealoha, Osborne, Shumway, <br />Unger, and Chair Haitsuka. <br />Noes: None. <br />Absent: Commissioners Kawauchi, and Nahale -a. <br />13 <br />
