Mr. Wiseman: Well I'm objecting to you leaving. If this was my court, I would issue a court order extending your term. Ms. Sumner-Mack: I have a point of order if you don't mind. I think we should introduce Amy as part...be on the record. She's serving in place of... Ms. Kahakalau: I apologize we should have done that right at the beginning and maybe she can do that. Ms. Self: I don't know how the term was. How long have you been on this Board? Ms. Kahakalau: It hasn't been five years. It would five years in June...yeah. Ms. Self: Because you can stay on for...what is it...90 days? Ms. Kahakalau: Well to me, if that's what the letter says that's when my term expires. I'll be fine with that. I just did want to apologize for not being more proactive in that case of finding a replacement but I will help in terms of you know just asking some people if they were interested and to submit their resumes which is usually what we do and I would also like to ask the rest of the Board Members to please consider...you know if you know somebody that you think would be a good person to serve on this board. To ask them to submit a resume to the Mayor with the request of you know that they're interested in serving on the board. Ms. Sumner-Mack: I know such a person and he...sat in last time and he's applied formally but he hasn't heard anything so. But again I'd like to have Amy introduced or introduce herself. Ms. Kahakalau: Yes. Ms. Self: Deputy Corporation Counsel, Amy Self. What I will do is I will bring this up to J. J didn't mention this to me so I'm gonna bring this up to him and maybe he can work with the Mayor's office to...would you be willing to serve...if you serve...if you've served... If you come in and you're filling...serving out the rest of someone else's term which I believe is what happened here. As long as it hasn't been two years or more...they can appoint you to a five year term. But if it's been more than two years, the charter says... Ms. Kahakalau: It has been. 7
