Hawai`i County Charter Commission -4 October 12, 2018 <br />CHR. ADAMS: Commissioner Roehrig. <br />MR. ROEHRIG: Thank you. A couple of comments if... <br />MR. HENRICKS: We can't hear. If you could just turn your microphone on. <br />MR. ROEHRIG: Thanks ah. <br />MR. HENRICKS: Thank you. <br />MR. ROEHRIG: If we are going to consider proposals, maybe there is a <br />chicken egg problem. I would like a legal opinion regarding the ramifications of <br />any proposals that we are considering. Cause you know you are talking about <br />striking something. Okay, what is going to happen if you do strike it. I would <br />like to see a legal opinion of all of the results, the ramifications of what a proposal <br />of striking something will mean you know in life. I think that's important. Now <br />whether that is first, before or after I don't know but I wouldn't want to vote on <br />something without a firm understanding legally what it means by doing or taking <br />that action. <br />And as far as, something else I would like to see, I would like to see some <br />minutes from these hearings. Right now all we have is this 75 page transcript <br />which I couldn't even get to. I missed the last hearing. It wouldn't download for <br />me. But there should be minutes which reflect what she is talking about. <br />Whatever the proposal, you shouldn't have to go through 75 pages to go find out <br />something, what's going on. It should have a regular minutes just like any other <br />meeting does and then you can have after that if you want to have 75 pages of <br />verbatim fine, but you got to have something that you can look at whether it is the <br />public or any of us to look at minutes and see what in the world has gone on in <br />these meetings and we don't have that. <br />MR. MASUDA: So, I am just trying to wrap my brain around what the... <br />CHR. ADAMS: So right now our counsel is speaking. <br />MR. MASUDA: Sorry. I am Craig Masuda, Counsel for the Commission. So, <br />what you folks are suggesting is that some time during the testimony or during the <br />presentation, somebody is going to say "I want that noted as part of the <br />proposals." <br />MS. SAQUING: No. That's not what I meant. <br />MR. MASUDA: No. So what? <br />Page 36 <br />
