With Gateway not proceeding then McCully's center will be built <br /> quickly to provide jobs and services. (Location #2 See Exhibit Two) <br /> If you say yes to Gateway, then where do you find another $20+ million to <br /> build another By-Pass to By-Pass the By-Pass? <br /> Puna's population will be bigger than Hilo within 10 to 15 years. Let's create a great <br /> Keaau community and plan for good traffic, please defer Gateway and build it next to the <br /> ball park. (See Exhibit ®rre) Imagine Puna will have three high schools and Hilo will have <br /> <br /> two high schools. <br /> For Puna's future, please defer motion again or vote NO. Why did we have to defer this <br /> motion four (4) times, it's because we all want new business but we don't want to cause a <br /> traffic for Puna. Puna deserves better! <br /> Thank for allowing us to submit this testimony <br /> Very sincerely yours, <br /> Carl Okuyama <br /> Vice President <br /> 2 <br /> _ _ _ <br /> <br />
