PC_28 Page 2 June 19, 2001 <br /> Your Chair stated that she sees "these boards and commissions as citizen's boards and <br /> commissions and that they should reflect the cross-section of the community, rather than <br /> specialized backgrounds. While it would be nice to have people with the background in water, <br /> we have a Water Department that has hydrologists and engineers who can provide you with <br /> technical information". She further explained that as a member of the Board, Ms. Scarr would be <br /> voting on contracts and capital improvement districts, and discussing bonds, and water rates. <br /> Ms. Scarr explained that she has not had a chance to study the water issues in Puna or in Kohala <br /> but will do so. She also explained that she has to learn more about the water system and the role <br /> of the Water Board and the Water Department. She also stated that she "will look into the water <br /> issues in various areas of the County because"-"the Commission has to represent the interest of <br /> the County as a whole". <br /> Your Committee on Planning recommends the approval of the appointment of Ms. Sandra Wood <br /> Scarr to the Hawai` i County Water Board. <br /> AYES NOES A & E EX <br /> Lfal'HEAD= I ODD X <br /> <br /> TYLER X Respectfully submitted, <br /> ARAKAKI X COMMIT"1'F,E ON P N[N <br /> Cf IUNG X <br /> E~:LARIONOFF X C <br /> JACOBSON X BOB JEAN LEITHEAD-TODD.
