i S ber 13, 2004 TO: Councilman Aaron Chung Councilman Ftsd Holschuh Councilman Gary Safat9k Councilman Mike Tulang Councilmar Leningrad Elarinoff Councilman James Anrkaki FRO Dianne Feeney RE: Bill l78 -vote to override Mayor's veto Alo I am writing this mcmo to strotttgly urge you to override Mayor Kim's veto of Bill 178 (Clift~). The public that is responding so "loud and cleat" as reoontly quoted in West Hawaii Today is a vary vocal minority, many of them newcomers to our Island touting the "list person off the Mainland boat" philosophy. In m opinion, and the opinion of my family end circle of friends (all of voting age) this pro project is not only a traffic mitigator, but of value to the community at lage ..from additional oceanfront sires for the public to affordable housing and money to be ' the planning of widening Queen Kaahutnenu Highway; add the opportunity to shop wi ut contributing to the traffic mess the administration has bcen allowed to happen in ' Kail -Kona and the approval of this project should be a `ho btauter". Ah, but the mayor is for re-election -perhaps that explains his kncc jerk reaction to a noisy mino ity. I stro gly support your vote to ovemde the veto, and will never support anyone for public offic who does not vote to gverride. We taxpayers have a chaace to be a partner in cons ions development, for the continued good of our Island -both the quality of life here fl the economic stability of our economy. i Plea vote to override the veto and know that many of us who are not making a big noise in 1 ,err to the editor and faxes are just too dam busy working.
