I urge you to <br /> confirm the appointment of Christopher Yuen as Planning Direcr~r. <br /> I am an attorney in private practice in Hilo I have known Chris for nearly 10 <br /> years. During that time, l have appeared before Chris in Board of Land and <br /> <br /> Natural Resources hearings and had dealings with Chris in private practice. In all <br /> instances, Chris has shown himself to be of the highest integrity and to work for <br /> the common good of the people of Hawaii. As a private attorney, I am familiar <br /> with the administrative skills that must be acquired to build and operate a <br /> successful law practice. In both private practice and on the Land Board, I have <br /> witnessed Chris exercise such administrative skills and have no doubt that he has <br /> the requisite experience necessary to fulfill all hrs administrative duties as <br /> Planning Director. <br /> I have known Chns to be dedicated, hard working and of exceptional intelligence. <br /> I consider his confirmation will be a credit to the County of Hawaii and its <br /> people. <br /> Comm.
