CHR. HAITSUKA: Thank you. Any other discussion? Alright, we have a motion <br />pending, if there is no further discussion, we'll take the vote. <br />The motion to amend Section 15 -4(p) <br />and Section 15 -9 was carried by the <br />following vote: <br />Ayes: Commissioners Honma, Jarman, <br />Kealoha, Nahale -a, Osborne, <br />Shumway and Chair Haitsuka. <br />Noes: None. <br />Absent: Commissioners Fuertes, <br />Kaulukukui, Kawauchi <br />and Unger. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: This next concern, we wanted to address to Mr. Goodenow, the <br />County Clerk. This relates to Section 15 -6, in particular to the number of days in which a <br />petition can be withdrawn. I think the concern of our attorney was that there might not be <br />sufficient time under State law to pull it back. <br />MR. GOODENOW: We have to provide it sixty days prior, and we have to mail it thirty - <br />five days prior; so it would be much too late, 30 days, it would already be on the ballot <br />and out. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: How much time would be required? <br />MR. GOODENOW: I would have to ask Pat Nakamoto what she would suggest. If they <br />do pass this, how much time or when should the limit be for withdrawing a petition? <br />MS. NAKAMOTO: Sixty days prior. <br />MR. GOODENOW: Do we turn in the language sixty days prior? Maybe we turn it in <br />and they withdraw on the same day? I think we would be alright with sixty days. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Is there any discussion? Ms. Wilkins, Ms. Hecht; do you have any <br />comments regarding changing that "thirtieth" day to "sixtieth day ?" <br />MS. HECHT: I think 60 days is fine. There is no problem with that; it obviously needs <br />to be in before it is put on the ballot. <br />MS. WILKINS: That is fine. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Do we have a motion to amend Section 15 -6 to change "thirtieth <br />day" to "sixtieth" day? <br />37 <br />
