allowed to vote. Lui then requested Mi:ra, County Counsel opine on this. Discussions
continued and Hausman questioned the roles of the two attorneys. Wong and the Board
requested that both City attorney and County counsel (or someone from their offices) be
present in future meetings to provide legal advice to the Oversight Board. Wong
motioned and Woo seconded the motion to allow alternates to the Oversight Board to be
designated by each entity for their position on the Board and to allow their votes to be
counted retroactive to the votes taken already. The motion passed unanimously with Rock
abstaining since he is an alternate. Roll call votes were then called for on the DOF contact
person nominations. On the Woo nomination, Lui, Haggerty, Rock, and Hausman voted
no and Wong and Woo voted yes. On the Lui nomination, Lui, Haggerty, Rock, and
Hausman voted yes, and Woo and Wong voted no. Lui was therefore designated as the
