THOMPSON: Yes. This would give us some <br /> flexibility into someof the new developments that come about. <br /> An Ordinance can be changed with the proper language with any <br /> current legislative body which would be the County 'Council <br /> here. But as I understand it that by restricting to the Charter, <br /> the Charter meets but once every 10 years and I believe that <br /> would be a deterrent to the improvement of this Fire Department. <br /> MR. TRULSON: Then we are to understand that the <br /> three sub-sections under Chapter 4 as they sit today are satis- <br /> factory to you and they require no change? <br /> MR. THOMPSON: Yes, they require no change. <br /> CHAIRMAN SAKATA: Mr. Thompson, do you have any <br /> specific changes that you want to make or you want to air out at <br /> this time? <br /> MR. THOMPSON: No, not at this time, no. <br /> MR. SCHUTTE -: Mr. Thompson, you certainly feel <br /> then that as these other departments may have Commission, you <br /> don ' t feel that a Commission would enhance your job in any way? <br /> As it stands, now with you coming directly under the Mayor, you <br /> feel this is the most acceptable and workable way of handling <br /> the Fire Department? <br /> MR. THOMPSON: I believe it is at this point. <br /> MR. SCHUTTE: Thank you. <br /> CHAIRMAN SAKATA: Are there any other questions? <br /> None. Thank you, very much, Mr. Thompson. <br /> PROSECUTING Introduction was made of Mr. Jon Ono, Prosecuting <br /> ATTORNEY: Attorney. <br /> MR. ONO: Good afternoon. I 'm Jon Ono, <br /> Prosecuting Attorney for the County of Hawaii. My proposed <br /> changes from the office in the Charter are listed on the sheet <br /> passed out. I 'm sorry that we did not use the normal legislative <br /> type of coding which would be the bracket4ng for the deletions <br /> and the underlining for the additions but if you will bear with <br /> me I can point it out on the sheet that you have. <br /> Section D which would be Section 9-4 sub-section <br /> (`d) at the top of the page that I have handed out. . .the change <br /> there is in the second line and in the second to the last line of <br /> that particular section. The change is very simple, one from <br /> where it says "magistrates" in the Charter, change that to <br /> "judges". A very technical type of a change but it mainly just <br /> for housekeeping. We don ' t have magistrates any more but we do <br /> have judges in the County of Hawaii. . .in the State of Hawaii and <br /> that will be one of the changes. <br /> -6- - <br />
