CHR. KIERKIEWICZ: Thank you, Mr. Clerk. We had robust discussion at our
last committee meeting and our Planning Director did request that this body
postpone the measure by two weeks so that we ease the load on our volunteer
Planning Commissions. But Mr. Inaba, before we move it on to Commissions
because there is a standing motion on the floor, do you have anything else that you
want to add?
MR. INABA: No. Thank you, Chair, for getting us back to where we were at our
last hearing, and I do ask for everyone's support to get those recommendations
from our Planning Commissions and our Planning Director. Thank you.
CHR. KIERKIEWICZ: Okay. And just for the viewing public, this particular bill,
it's a change to Chapter 25, which means that we must get the review of our
Planning Director as well as Planning Commissions. Once we get their mana`o, it
gets sent back to this body where we have further deliberations before moving it
on to Council. Okay. There is a motion on the floor to forward Bill 127 to the
Planning Commissions. All those in favor, please say "aye."
