MR. HOOKANO: You are correct. The ad -hoc committee would have to formulate a <br />plan, and then come back to the Commission with that plan and the Commission as a <br />whole would have to approve it as a body. Again, this is a three meeting process. The <br />formation meeting, which would be this one; the next time this matter comes back <br />before the Commission, it is a report to the Commission; then at the third meeting is <br />when the Commission will discuss and vote and approve the plan if it desires. It will <br />take at least three meetings including this one for the education plan to be approved. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Thank you. The other thing I wanted to add is that perhaps the <br />committee could give us an idea on the proposed timeline on some of the things that we <br />want to get out. Maybe sending our advertisements, mailings, or whatever else we are <br />going to do. <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: Would the committee also be coming up with a proposal for how <br />the language for each of the proposals is going to be worded on the ballot? <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: I don't think that is in the scope of this particular committee. I <br />don't know if that is something that we were going to do as far as the Commission; or if <br />that is something that our legal counsel was going to do. Mr. Hookano, do you have any <br />thoughts? <br />MR. HOOKANO: I could prepare some language for the Commission to review. <br />According to the State law, it is the Commission that comes up with the language, so if I <br />do come forward with something, then I would submit it to the Commission for your <br />approval. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: Thank you. Is there any further discussion? Mr. Hookano, do we <br />have sufficient definition as to the scope of the ad -hoc committee? <br />MR. HOOKANO: Yes, at this time I think it would be beneficial for you to re -state the <br />members, and then re -state the scope, so that it is clear at this point. <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: The members of the ad -hoc committee would be Ms. Jarman as the <br />chair; and the members would be Mr. Unger, Mr. Shumway, Ms. Osborne and Mr. <br />Nahale -a. The scope of the ad -hoc committee would be to investigate the methods and <br />means by which the Charter Commission can educate the public regarding the proposed <br />amendments by coming up with timelines for getting the message out, exploring the <br />costs of the various methods and means that we may use. <br />MR. HOOKANO: Mr. Chair, are you a member of this ad -hoc committee? <br />CHR. HAITSUKA: No, I am not. Is there any further discussion? Are we ready to <br />vote on the initial motion, which was to file Communication 252? <br />R <br />
