Sign Code: <br />Jay Kimura Sign Code <br />(February 6, 2002) 961-0466 (1:00 p.m.) <br />Re: Comments to the Sign Code <br />Came by the Kona office. Said he read the ordinance. Has some <br />concerns more in the area of penalties. On the conversion <br />there's some language, "if someone has a legal permit" — perhaps <br />use the language "valid" permit instead. <br />As far as the civil/criminal — looks O.K. But when gets to the <br />Kailua-Kona section there's a separate penalty section which Jay <br />says seems a little confusing. <br />And in terms of criminal penalty would recommend a minimum but <br />not a maximum and leave it to the judge to decide as the HRS <br />already provides for a maximum (but doesn't provide a minimum). <br />Says he will give the ordinance to his staff — Mel Fujino — at the <br />Prosecutor's Office in Kealakekua @ 323-2252. Says, if you have <br />questions on the criminal side of enforcement to please call him. <br />Jay said he would brief him today (2/6) on it. Please call him in a <br />couple of days. The criminal is done by the police and if <br />ordinance done by department. The police have their priorities so <br />it's a question as to how much time they can devote to this <br />section. Usually says its done on a complaint basis. <br />Says that down the road will have to meet with the road <br />department and various agencies and might require education of <br />the public before making it law.. <br />
