Committee Chair Chock: Members, before we get any further down the
road on this Bill, I did receive a request to defer the Bill by the introducers
Councilmember Evslin and Councilmember Carvalho, who is excused. In addition,
Ka`aina S. Hull, Planning Director is not available today as well. Prior to making
that motion, if there are any questions, I can suspend the rules. Councilmember
Evslin, do you have any comments?
Councilmember Evslin: No, but I do want the opportunity to discuss
the Bill more with Councilmember Carvalho when he returns. We have been working
on some potential amendments to the Bill and before we bring those to you, I want to
be able to fully vet it with my co-introducer.
Committee Chair Chock: Okay. Is there any further discussion from
the Members?
