f~ma_SL- 35 BY---~.~~L~ <br /> po~,.,,~-C S <br /> Dear Bob, Mitch, & Colleagues, Congratualtions on passing the Anim'~a <br /> 'Control <br /> <br /> Laws! (with teeth?) We here in Pahala certainly hope so! Please do not let it <br /> <br /> become a law just on the books, like so many other good laws, that lack <br /> <br /> enforcement! We suffer daily and nightly from excessive noises by various "noise <br /> <br /> machines'; such as: 1.) Many dogs barking and howling day & night, well beyond <br /> <br /> the legal limits! 2.) Street car racers with "trumpet" exhaust pipes, day and night. <br /> <br /> (easy to spot by any observer!) 3.) Fighting cocks anytime between 2 & 3 am. 4.) <br /> <br /> Boomboxes: They still are a problem in our community which is aka "Hawaii's <br /> Wild West Town without a Sheriff'. 5.) Gun shots: This problem is presently <br /> <br /> getting better since some seniors legally acquired Mossberg shotguns with the <br /> <br /> knowledge of the alleged perpetrators. Besides noise, there are <br /> <br /> violations concerning animal cruealty, such as: 1.) Loose dogs roaming around <br /> <br /> town. Pahala has a history of dog-bite incidents. 2.) Dog prisons, aka "kennels", <br /> <br /> that are cruelly small and in violation of minimum dimensions; some are on the <br /> ground in their filth, and exposed to rain and run-off water; some are without water <br /> and food for days! (local police usually shrug it off with, "they are just hunting <br /> dogs"?) Re: e.g. TMK 9-6-014-004 / -005 &TMK 9-6-014-010 / -Ol 1 / -012, <br /> among others. However, these "hunting dogs" are barking and howling just as <br /> much as "regular dogs"! is there a "race card" in Dogdom??? Are "hunting dogs" <br /> not "real dogs" in Hawaii County? 1t is alleged that many of these "hunting dogs" <br /> seldom or never get to actually hunt, but are used in numbers as "security" dogs by <br /> alleged substance abusers and dealers. There are many other issues in Pahala not <br /> related to the Animal Control Laws, such as: a.) Zoning violations by alleged <br /> illegal businesses inside Pahala town, operating and squatting on land zoned <br /> preservation /open land, and owned now by Edmund Olson. b.) Operating a large, <br /> 27500 GWV refrigeration truck without a license. (formerly owned by Naalehu <br /> Dairy) [t is alleged to be used for an unlicensed meat business and butcher shop <br /> inside Pahala town. Could also be used for a mobile regulated substance factory, <br /> or worse, for dis-appearing individuals who "crossed the red line" here in Pahala? <br /> c.) We have a new dys-functional neighborhood watch by a different name, that is <br /> not working in the spirit of community policing, to put it mildly. d.) Alleged EPA <br /> violations like draining truck engine and transmission fluids on squatted lands, <br /> zoned preservation /open land. (by un-licensed truck and farming equipment <br /> repair shop operators inside Pahala town). We here in Pahala know that "the <br /> powers-that-be" are focussing on law enforcement in Hilo & Kona, and we <br /> understand, and we do appreciate very much any help from you given in the past <br /> and present and future!
