It will be a couple step process. Council needs to repeal their <br />schedules that they have and make a clearer delegation of this authority to this Commission. Right now under <br />the Charter and the Rules for the Department of Environmental Management, there is no clear mandate to the <br />Commission. The Commission is really to advise the Department. The Commission doesn’t have any rate <br />setting powers, but that can be delegated to this Commission by the Council if they so choose." <br />Motion to approve the minutes with the corrections mentioned above was unanimously carried. <br />3.STATEMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC ON ITEMS LISTED ON AGENDA <br />There were no statements from the public. <br />4.APPROVAL OF ADDENDUM AND/OR SUPPLEMENTAL AGENDA <br />Hugh Ono moved to modify Item No. 7 on the agenda to read Jurisdictional Limitation of the <br />Environmental Management Commission and Letter Submitted by Jerry Rothstein.
