Ige issued a Supplementary Emergency Proclamation related to COVID-19 which suspended Chapter 92 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS), relating to Public Agency Meetings and Records(also known as the Sunshine Law). Governor Ige continued the suspension of Chapter 92 with his Sixth Supplementary Emergency Proclamation dated April 25, 2020. On May 5, 2020, Governor Ige issued his Seventh Supplementary Emergency Proclamation amending his earlier suspension of Chapter 92. The suspension of Chapter 92 was subsequently continued through additional Supplementary Emergency Proclamations, the most recent being his Fourteenth Supplementary Emergency Proclamation dated October 13, 2020. Chapter 92 of the HRS was suspended to the extent necessary in order to enable boards to conduct business in-person or through remote technology without any board members or members of the public physically present in the same location. Boards shall consider reasonable measures to allow public participation consistent with social distancing practices, such as providing notice of meetings, allowing the submission of written testimony on items which have been posted on an agenda, providing board packets available electronically, live streaming of meetings, and posting minutes of meetings online. Furthermore, if a board has the staffing, technological, and other resources to hold a secure video teleconference (video and audio), it must in good faith, attempt to provide the public with the opportunity to observe the meeting as it happens, and provide an opportunity to deliver oral testimony. No board deliberation or action shall be invalid, if such good faith efforts to implement remote technology for public observations and comments do not work. The Kauai County Council-Elect, though not a board pursuant to Chapter 92, will conduct its Organizational Meeting in the spirit of the Sunshine Law and in an effort to enhance public transparency following COVID-19 restrictions: • Meetings will be noticed pursuant to HRS Chapter 92. • The meeting will be closed to the public to be consistent with social distancing practices. • Councilmembers and/or resource individuals may appear via remote technology. • The meeting will be live streamed and also available as an archived meeting after completion, at www.kauai.gov/webcastmeetings.
