We are requesting that a resolution be passed to endorse the document and its intent. <br /> Anita Rolitano-Steckel We would like to request to be placed on the October 7, 2005 Planning Commission agenda in <br /> Steve Shropshire order for the County Council to review this document before the end of this year. <br /> Dolly Straza r <br /> On behalf of the Friends of Downtown Hilo Steering Committee, thank you and the Planning <br /> Les Takayama Department for your support in helping to bring the Envision Downtown Hilo 2025 project to <br /> Mcrcaith Tanioxa fruition. I would particularly like to thank your staff member Susan Gagorik, without whom I <br /> t,ynneire uyesato believe none of this would have happened. <br /> Marlene Murray, Recorder <br /> Because Coastal Zone Management Funds were received to support this project, upon endorsement <br /> by the County Council, the Plan should be forwarded to the State Office of Planning. <br /> www.hilo2025.org <br /> As you know, this document is the culmination of over 15 months of community work to create a <br /> vision for Downtown Hilo by the year 2025. Our focus has been to ensure that this be a <br /> community-based process with community ownership of the plan. Therefore, integral to the <br /> process is sharing the story on how all this came together. It is hoped that this document will serve <br /> as an inspiration, model and handbook to others who may wish to embark on a visioning process. <br /> As implementation is also a key component to the success of the plan, a detailed action plan is <br /> included in the document. Part of the living nature of the plan is that it is an active part of civic life <br /> always in motion and changing. <br /> If you have any questions, please contact me at 933-9772 or amoonLbi¢island.com. Mahalo, once <br /> again, for helping the community with this landmark project. <br /> Sincer ~jJ <br /> Alice L.
