CHR. HAITSUKA: I don't think it makes it worse, but it's just not set up correctly with that "but" in there. I think the language that was added to the motion modifies that there are two main deposits, but it also affects any other deposits they might want to make. MS. KAWAUCHI: What if it was, "... and no later than...." Would that help? MS. JARMAN: Mr. Chair, it could say, "Deposits to the fund will occur twice a year, no later than 30 days after the majority of taxes have been collected, and at other times when monies are available and accounted for." I'm not sure - -- MS. CRAWFORD: You probably wouldn't like this, but, it could be "... as deemed appropriate by the finance department." I'm not sure you would want to say it that way. I understand where you are going with that, you just don't want to restrict us to only two times a year, and I think that is important; and that is a problem in the current ordinance. Maybe something like, "Deposits to the fund will occur at a minimum of twice a year to include deposits made within 30 days..." I'm not sure how your language reads right now, but you are somehow trying to include those with the fact that it is a minimum of twice - -- CHR. HAITSUKA: Why don't we take a quick break and we can work on some language and then come back on. RECESS: At 2:24 p.m., the Chair called for a 10 minute recess. RECONVENE: The meeting was reconvened at 2:35 p.m. CHR. HAITSUKA: Ms. Kawauchi. MS. KAWAUCHI: Mr. Chair, I would like to withdraw my previous motion and make a new motion. Ms. Kawauchi moved to amend the last sentence in subsection (a) of CA -15 to read, "Deposits to the fund will occur three times a year, and no later than (1) 45 days after the majority of taxes have been collected and, (2) with the final payment at the end of the fiscal year." Seconded by Ms. Osborne. CHR. HAITSUKA: Ms. Crawford, can we trouble you one more time? Did you hear the motion? 14
