understand that according to their regulations , the <br /> planning director, i. e. the department of the County <br /> through the planning director , is a party to the <br /> proceeding. This really talks about functions of the <br /> planning division and I was really thinking of the <br /> recommendations of the State Land Use. <br /> It seems like there are two things. One who ' s a <br /> party to the proceedings and who may recommend action. <br /> Now they may not consider it , but the Planning Commission <br /> could recommend whatever it wants to recommend I <br /> presume. That ' s my point is. <br /> L'ORANGE: Technical point . There ' s no procedure <br /> for recommendations by these commissioners . You amend <br /> the boundary or you don' t amend the boundary. It ' s very <br /> specific as to how you amend the boundary. <br /> BETHEA: Yeah, but can. . . the Land Use Commission can <br /> change boundary amendments changes on its own motion, <br /> can' t it? <br /> L'ORANGE: Only recent law where they have a. . . the <br /> Department of State Planning has to take a boundary <br /> review and often the State Planning will take that to the <br /> Land Use Commission for their action. Is that correct? <br /> KAHUNA: That ' s correct. <br /> BETHEA: So the Land Use Commission on its own <br /> cannot. . .well , they do every five years. They have a <br /> five-year review that they initiate on their own, don' t <br /> they? <br /> KANUHA: No, that was just reinstituted into the <br /> statutes. My recollection of why this particular provi- <br /> sion was in the Charter was that in anticipation of the <br /> Land Use law being put into effect, right around the same <br /> time that I guess the Charter was starting to come <br /> together, was that at that point in time, there was a <br /> role for the County Planning Commission in terms of <br /> reviewing the overall suggestions that the state, at that <br /> point in time was the Department of Planning & Economic <br /> Development , had recommended. And it was at that point <br /> in time that the State Department of Planning & Economic <br /> Development was the only initiator of State Land Use <br /> boundary changes. And that system has since been. . .been <br /> foregone with the creation of the State Land Use <br /> Commission. <br /> BETHEA: Okay. You can proceed , please. <br /> KANUHA: The next section is the one right under <br /> 384 <br />
