Poppe: Questioned the use of the words "submit a <br /> written report" and "summary of charges" , etc. (Exhibit <br /> B, #7-2. 2(d) ) , and whether or not the report also goes to <br /> the mayor. She feels a copy should go to the mayor as <br /> well as to the Police Chief and questioned whether that <br /> needed to be mandated in the Charter. Lum: Commission <br /> would do a report on members of, the department , not the <br /> chief. Juvik: The chief serves at the pleasure of the <br /> mayor. <br /> B. Motion No. 1/Count : Ms. Poppe made a motion to <br /> approve the sentence added by Mr. Yuen in Sec. 7-2. 2 (d) <br /> (Exhibit A) . The motion was seconded by Dr. Juvik. All <br /> were in favor. Motion carried. <br /> VI . AGENDA ITEM NOS. 6 .a) and b) : Boards/Commissions <br /> A. Discussion on Sec. 13-4(i) and (j ) : Bethea: <br /> Referred to letter of 01/15/90 (Exhibit C) from Mr. <br /> Yuen. Need to get vacancies filled as quickly as <br /> possible. It was agreed previously that Sec. 13-4 (i) <br /> needed to be changed. Yuen: But exact language wasn' t <br /> agreed upon and should be voted on for submission to the <br /> County Clerk. Poppe: Discussed advisory commissions in <br /> connection with quorum needed to take action. Does it <br /> mean majority of those present , or majority of the number <br /> of positions available for appointment? Yuen: Suggests <br /> additional wording: "No board or commission should <br /> conduct any business without a quorum, which is the <br /> majority of members to which the board or commission is <br /> entitled" (whether filled or unfilled positions) (Tape <br /> 1 : 1: 35) . Sec. 13-4 (i) does not solve the problem of <br /> advisory commissions . Bethea: Sec. 13-4 (j ) (see the <br /> Charter) could be modified also. Yuen: Correct; and the <br /> language could be: "A quorum shall be the majority of <br /> members to which the commission is entitled. " Juvik: <br /> Agreed. <br /> B. Motion No. 2/Count: Omonaka: Moved the change be <br /> made. Juvik: Seconded the motion. Bethea: Repeated <br /> the motion' s wording: Sec. 13-4(j ) in the Charter would <br /> read: "Each board and commission shall have power to <br /> establish its rules of procedure necessary for the <br /> conduct of its business , which rules shall contain the <br /> time and place of all regular meetings ; and which shall <br /> specify that a quorum shall consist of a majority of the <br /> members to which the commission is entitled. " All were <br /> in favor of the motion. Motion was carried. <br /> 773 <br />
