Mr. Yuen thinks this was the wrong interpretation, that <br /> the term "geographical areas" was deliberately meant to be <br /> vague and inclusive. The question is should this be <br /> clarified better in the Charter. <br /> Mr. L'Orange moved that the present nine-member boards in <br /> the Charter (Planning and Water) have residency <br /> requirements following the nine single-member counclil <br /> districts if that were passed by the voters. Ms. Poppe <br /> seconded. Later , Mr. L'Orange withdrew the motion and <br /> Ms.Poppe withdrew her second. <br /> After considerable discussion, the general consensus was <br /> to make no change in residency requirements. <br /> XI. TAX BOARD OF REVIEW <br /> Mr. L'Orange moved to leave this as a matter of county <br /> ordinance rather than fix it in the Charter . The <br /> ordinance could more easily be amended. Ms. Lum <br /> seconded. All were in favor and the motion carried. <br /> XII . COUNTY EMPLOYEES ' ELIGIBILITY FOR ELECTED OFFICE <br /> Mr. Yuen explained that the Board of Ethics had asked the <br /> Commission to consider whether county employees should be <br /> banned from seeking elective office. No motion was made <br /> to act on this , and the Commission moved to the next item <br /> on the agenda. <br /> XIII. MANDATORY DEPUTIES--REVIEW PAST ACTIONS <br /> Mr. Yuen explained that there seemed to be an <br /> inconsistency in the minutes of our meetings concerning <br /> whether there should be a mandatory Deputy Director for <br /> all departments. <br /> Mr. Greenwell moved to re-affirm the discussions made to <br /> require a deputy managing director and a deputy finance <br /> director, but not require a deputy director for other <br /> departments. Funding of the deputy position for other <br /> departments would remain at the discretion of the Council . <br /> Ms . Lum seconded the motion. All were in favor and the <br /> motion carried. <br /> XIV. SALARY COMMISSION <br /> Mr. Yuen explained that to properly implement the change <br /> already approved that the salary commission set all <br /> elected officials ' salaries , Sect. 5-1. 3 and Sect. 9-3 <br /> should also be deleted. <br /> Mr. Juvik made a motion to delete these sections. The <br /> motion was seconded . All were in favor and the motion was <br /> carried. <br /> 940 <br />
