Angel; Isbell, Virginia; <br /> counciltestimony@co.hawaii.hi.us <br /> Subject: In Support of letting voters vote on 2% for Open Spaces <br /> <br /> Dear Mayor Kim and Hawaii County Council: <br /> > PLEASE PUT THE QUESTION ON THE BALLOT AND LET HAWAII COUNTY VOTERS DECIDE <br /> > IN NOVEMBER TO MODIFY THE EXISTING Open Space and Natural Resources <br /> > ORDINANCE BY MAKING THE FOLLOWING CHANGES: <br /> > 1-To set aside 2% of the property tax each and every year for Open Space > and <br /> > Natural resource acquisition and <br /> > 2-to eliminate the limit of $5 million that can be held in the fund. <br /> > WE ASK THE COUNCIL TO HONOR over 9,000 people who have signed this > Petition. <br /> > Citizens have been frustrated by conflicting instructions from the County > as <br /> > to the timelines and the stringent application of the arbitrary and <br /> > ambiguous criteria that the County has imposed on this process. We ask > the <br /> > County to include signatures of voters that: <br /> > 1- forgot to write the st. ave. or highway suffix as part of their > residence <br /> > addresses <br /> > 2- forgot to put the year 2006 in the date column. <br /> > Both of these criteria are clearly implied. We believe that the County <br /> > should be using petition information to qualify signatures not looking for <br /> > insignificant reasons to disqualify voter's signatures. <br /> > Please put the question on the November 2006 Ballot now! <br /> > Sincerely, <br /> > Pamela Hicks <br /> > 73-1269 Ilau St, Kailua Kona HI 96740 <br /> > July 7, 2006 <br /> <br /> Check out AOL.com today.
