Mr. Kimiaki Sakata
Chairman, Hawaii County
Charter Commission
25 Aupuni Street
Hilo, Hawaii 96720
Dear Mr. Sakata:
During the period you have been away, a significant
question arose concerning the number of options that can be
placed upon the ballot concerning Section 3-2 , Article III ,
Hawaii County Charter.
Upon reviewing the minutes and discussing with Mr.
Stuart Oda, our legal counsel, you will understand the major
problem that faces the commission.
During the commission's discussion, it was felt that
such a major issue should not be decided with some members away,
and consequently, any action on the matter was deferred to
the next meeting.
Unfortunately, in attempting this accomodation, the
next meeting was scheduled for Wednesday, August 8 , 1979, and,
without the commission members having been polled, postponed to
Tuesday, August 14, 1979. I regret to inform you that I will
be away for the entire week of Augst 12,.. 1979 and will not be
back until August 18 or 19, 1979 . I will be attending a judicial
seminar to which I had been committed since June, 1979, since
out schedule at that time indicated that all major issues would
have been settled.
Accordingly, I am requesting that the commission, if
at all possible, defer any action concerning Section 3-2 , Article
III , to any date subsequent to August 19 , 1979.
Respect- lly submitted,
hard T. Ishida
