Box 583 <br /> Kealakekua, Hawaii 96750 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> June 18, 2006 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> The Honorable Stacy Higa, Chairman <br /> And Members of the County Council <br /> Hawaii County Council <br /> 25 Aupuni Street <br /> Hilo, Hawaii 96720 <br /> <br /> Re: Comm. 937/13ill 301- Chapter 4 - Animals <br /> <br /> Dear Chairman Higa and Council Members: <br /> <br /> If you decide to include Section 4-9 in the subject bill - regarding the number of <br /> domesticated animals permitted per dwelling unit in a residential district - it seems only <br /> just and kind to allow for a "grandfathering" of the pets currently kept by a person in a <br /> residential zone, as long as the pet owner agrees to abide by the new ruling, once their <br /> animal population naturally reduces itself. Otherwise, in my opinion, you will be <br /> subjecting many responsible pet owners to psychological cruelty, stress and anguish, not <br /> to mention the possibility of the loss of life to their pets. <br /> <br /> A second way to more equitably deal with this issue could be a reasonable year limit in <br /> the future - say ten years - that allows for the natural passing of pets in their home, to <br /> bring a responsible pet owner into compliance. <br /> <br /> Thank you for your consideration of my request. <br /> <br /> Aloha, <br /> <br /> 1 E,gAlvl. /V1 LIT-L ~J~- <br /> <br /> Megan Mitchell <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Comm.
