control our rules. So I would suggest that we just push forward <br /> with that. <br /> Mr. Goodenow: If I could respond to that. My only comment is...the whole <br /> structure though...is exactly what... Well I said this at the last <br /> meeting. I saw two reasons why we were amending the <br /> rules...why this came about. One was for the fines. The other was <br /> because people like Mr. Tucker felt that the process did not really <br /> give them a say...that they...they'd get...you know they'd come in <br /> here and have an informal opinion and it would just be no <br /> problem...and they had no power. So to speak. Now I <br /> agree...both of those issues though need code changes. I mean we <br /> can fix up our rules somewhat...I agree. Make...the wording <br /> better. But to address those core issues, the code has to be <br /> changed. If you come back and tell us...the code can't be changed <br /> without a charter amendment...well we're gonna have to...Mr. <br /> Tucker will have to wait two years for that. Cause it has to be <br /> ratified by the electorate. <br /> Mr. Yoshimoto: Okay well I... <br /> Mr. Goodenow: But hopefully Corp. Counsel. And J and I have talked informally. <br /> We both think...no we don't have to amend that charter to do these <br /> proposed code changes...but Amy Self felt it was best to have a <br /> formal opinion and that's where we're at. So I think we're all on <br /> the right track. We have to stay focused. We're going to get a <br /> formal opinion at the next meeting. We'll be prepared... You <br /> already have what I think are code amendments which were passed <br /> out at the last meeting or the meeting before and we can proceed <br /> with those. And our rules...that part...the tail end of it is our rules. <br /> And either we'll make minor changes or if the code stuff is sent to <br /> the council...we'd go ahead and revise our rules how we want <br /> to...that we've already agreed that we wanna do after a year of <br /> meetings going over each chapter. Yeah, Mr. Robinson. <br /> Mr. Robinson: You know one of the other things Mr. Tucker brought up in his <br /> appeal was the fact that...there was information that was not given <br /> to him until he got here. Whereas the departments that he was <br /> having his appeal about...had received all that information and had <br /> it far in advance and were able to respond to everything. Is there <br /> anything in here that we're going to change that would allow him <br /> to be given the information ahead of time? So he could come in <br /> prepared? <br /> Mr. Goodenow: What we've already kind of approved...I mean not formal <br /> approval but as we did it step by step would definitely include that. <br /> 11 <br />
