give them your wisdom we ask for your protection from the men and women who are in the streets now we ask for your blessing and wisdom upon these commissioners and their families officers see the faces rather than just hear the names and i think it's good for you folks to also see who you officers are out in the community here and get to get to know just a little bit about them all graduated but that's ongoing one new thing to add about cia he is currently working on our drone policy and so we have three offices three detectives and a certified operator drones we are expecting big things from during the summer we did a lot of special ops and ordinated with patrols and those kind of efforts are really good cooperation amongst the divisions but at the request of the chief because of the bus situation the lack of buses there's an increasing pr between law enforcement agencies and the national highway traffic safety administration we want to increase our awareness with this campaign also see lasting results decreased impaired driving impaired driving is not just selfish an unacceptable behavior it is deadly over the labor day holiday period in two thousand and fifteen there were four hundred sixty crash related fatalities nationwide forty percent of those feel crushes involved drivers would been drinking making contact with the the protesters especially the ones that were indeed the sleeping dragon configuration those officers had by the camps so you captured exactly what's going on  only way they use force is to because the protestors were resisting and and i know how the how you're trained and that's exactly what they did and i really commend you and the force and everybody that's done it that you did a proper job because like the chief said you know the element that was doing that would not the the best people in the world and they did and you did a great job so that's there but did you approximately maybe twenty five or thirty body cameras that might have been employed at the time and saw there's the officers who are now in the process of that they have been reviewing the  coming to the meeting today and i was actually on the phone and all of a sudden i hear the siren and he pulls me over and the officer plainclothes you know playing you know and it's like an s and i said i'm one hundred you're one hundred percent right i'm so wrong you're one you know and the guy couldn't have been any nicer and what he expressed to me is that he was one of the officers that had to give the notification to the person that died on  highly miley wrote and he felt so strongly about it and he didn't know who i was or anything he trips with us i just want to tell you i don't want to do that again and be careful and don't do that it's very dangerous and the guy was just terrific and i was already for a ticket he was courteous and informative and he just gave me a warning and said just be careful so you guys are out doing online one and eyes for us that they as much as you do a great job in the fire department that's a great job in this and the ambulance that's a great job they hear every call and that they have the most important job in the county and it's and i really commended them for getting out there and wanting to do that because as we've known since i've been on the commission the biggest  that i'll give you an idea of the fun the were expended throughout f y seventeen we ended up with an overall six percent balance and then we can use that as we develop our f y nineteen requests as well so we can analyze that and  that as historical as we develop the future budget also included based off last month's discussion and cleared on the cia and other grant information as well so with the grants the funds are going to be expended at different times throughout the year so as mentioned we have to bring our campaign to different conferences that come up throughout the year so there is no specific time the money will be pulled so we can provide balances throughout the year if needed but we just provided the list of all the grants that n p t is involved and the overall balance starting off for the staffing report i highlighted pretty much the two areas that have the most vacancies and that we do have open recruitment on so that structures that were hired obvious when all this first one august four so that is not going to be in this report but it will be highlighted in next month's report so we are still doing recruiting and as mentioned we are still hiring and will just adjust the numbers each month as the new things come along we do have eleven conditional offers right now on in various stages so as mentioned we do continue with the hiring process throughout throughout the year so are there any questions eighteen months there are projects that still west and some of the projects actually that that balance amount like you said this was pulled june thirtieth so that amount is already lower it's down to about six hundred fifty thousand right now so they have the incinerator that they were working on the record the renovation at record section some other projects that are still from f y seventeen carryovers in that balance amount included on the dispatch center renovation and the parking lot repeating so there are still projects from f y seventeen that are still being worked on from f y seventeen funds that we have till the end of this calendar year so the projects are with consultants so they are being worked on place that we have right now we are not to release any video until we get approval from the office of cooperation council however if there is if the then the wife for the tour of said to the husband you better tell him the story and he happened to be an officer from california and he says that guy i personally scored it into the plane and put him on a plane to my house and that happens a lot to where we're getting the dregs of california and washington and oregon that this sending here to live on our beaches and suck off of our our wonderful community that gives them you know homes and food in money and it's you know the people that are that grew up on maui and they have fallen on hard times i'm one hundred percent for taking care of th but the people that just fly in other communities you know it's politics that send them are there junk to send here to live here and this becomes your problem all of our problems but you guys are on the front line it's a shame that they can't get a grant to get tickets and fly them back that's one thing on another thing either you or chief jake people have said to me and it's especially in the report on the holly a in that the the person that was injured or whatever that he lost consciousness and it was reported that it took twenty minutes for an ambulance to get to the scene a i wanted to know how come there was an ambulance there with you guys or first responders and where it is and where they are fire department is it's not even do as we make your plans for the protests having an ambulance there could send the wrong message that we were looking at having injuries in the incident so we're trying to downplay or minimize that type of  message to everyone involved you know we're not there to have anyone injured you know we would love to go through that whole incident and might have anyone hurt and obviously it was going that route recruit training is something that's available to the officers that that level is ok that i'm finding more and more of course they're you know dealing with mental illnesses on the street in the every day patrol in lot of the cases they be getting to respond to and that there are people that are rabble rousers crazy people extreme right extreme left whatever do you have a unit or do you clocked those kind of people do you follow the show i don't know if there are any because this is maui but there might be and do you actually you know monitor that if if you have any kind of system for that if there's a unit for that  know being you know jewish one of the things that they did that that you know they were about blacks but most of it with about you know anti semitism and even though we have a small jewish population here on maui you know i worry matter and they want to listen and all of this is televised offer be you know minutes here it's available but however if you're going to get into specifics on something like asking for clarification on something that was reported is one thing asking for background and more information on something else a little bit more in depth this body might for sunshine reasons in case the community is interested one agenda is it has its own agenda item specifically for the public's information like it might be suggest good to apply you that they could do something like that because those shopkeeper if they want some pretend you know you've been hearing from them and you've been doing a great job thank it was presented to us just before the last meeting so now all after going through it i have my comments and if you'll let me i'll just go through what my comment is in and if anybody else had any questions or com yeah so what i guess for is this just this section only would be for it instead of asking for it document will add in wording that says that if the chief may also include  it's always nice to know what the more people think i'm what i did my my little nit picking suggestion would be  to narrow it down even more it is as simple as possible i mean literally taking this from page in a third which some of these would do to send out a big question here and some people will respond in a timely e and then off course would be all that are from the commission to each individual and i would say this is a stakeholder peer evaluation of our chief of police please we are reaching out to you for your your response and of course it would be anonymous when its return sort of time it would be sometime close today and that a year i'm assuming  and hopefully people would respond then it could be incorporated as a single number into it up into our evaluation of which we attempt to usually coordinate in february by march that's and even though it's a page and a half it's a page and a half that's what it is and i think people that you will be sending the letter to as the chair asking them to fill this out is them helping us get a full complete picture of the chief and how he interacts with all these different agencies yes there are a lot of different agencies and yes not all of them will respond but whichever ones do will be helpful for the next meeting that would be sent to to a meet to disseminate maybe these objections could be talked over with howard and gwen in the committee but i feel very strongly that the amount of people that it's being sent to and i think that with one of your objections is appropriate and that the response and and the inquiry to all these other agencies is very pertinent to the full picture of what is going off and how the chief and i feel the chief was doing very well and how he is being viewed by his peers so i think it's important and just because it's a little up other than that there was just one sentence that threw me in number three provides effective employing me employee development and share employee development and share leadership when  be able to talk to your boy and make sure that they're developing and that what they're doing is in accordance with what their task which and i think that bylaws what is required of this commission regarding that do we need to actually assert her view budget so we knew there was a life as a body before yes yes you're reviewing summit and i want to make the body doesn't agree with the metal they would submit it over but the difficulty it's the timing of it it's because you would meet once a month have the budget is pretty dynamic one till i'd say it's handed over to the mayor so you guys might meet on june for september there's growing up around the dates a number twenty third or something it's not due till august i mean october seventh things may or may not change so the approval either after a special meeting closer to the date or their approval have to wait for the of the partners of flexibility but that's all they're saying but we're doing your take action on obviously probably sho be special meeting versus being able to do it in our regular meeting in executive session how does that work out for a procedure correct procedure i'm not sure why it would not be an yes i mean that's that's something very well we stop saying that it's not sitting down and then looking around for the first time if it's something that can be given to us in advance so that when we come has come together as a body w but the next meeting we will get this is august our september meeting we will see where we are with what the department can provide to the entire commission and they will go and when i made my statement about the protesters it's that there were no bad people that they were actually community leaders and good people and i apologize to anybody if i misspoke thank you
