Hawai`i County Charter Commission -5 November 9, 2018 <br />CHR. ADAMS: Suggested change. <br />MS. RICE: Suggested change. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Right because the Commissioners are the ones that <br />would make the proposals. <br />MS. RICE: Correct. Oh, okay, got it. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Okay. Is there anything other than that that you would <br />like to speak to? <br />MS. RICE: No. I think that it is a good change and a good suggested <br />change. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Okay. Thank you. <br />MS. TODD: Mr. Chair? <br />CHR. ADAMS: Commissioner Todd. <br />MS. TODD: Just a procedural question. We have had a number of <br />proposed amendments submitted to us by different departments and by <br />members of the public. Is the protocol that one of us on the Commission <br />has to, one of us has to fill out a form in order for this to actually be voted <br />on? <br />CHR. ADAMS: Yes. <br />MS. TODD: So our last opportunity would be the December 14`''? <br />CHR. ADAMS: No, the last opportunity would probably be May, but we <br />would like to get it as soon as possible. Why do I say May? Because, <br />well, it may be April. It has to do with the last meeting in June, our <br />meeting in June is our cut off for second reading, yes, second reading so <br />that it can then go forward to the Council. We are trying to push forward <br />as many of these proposals through first reading meaning that we have had <br />the initial vote on it and then a first reading vote on it. Essentially two <br />separate votes on the proposals so that we can then present those in our <br />public hearings. <br />Page 19 <br />
