Neither does the Bill address t?:_ <br /> case of obligations that have accrued prior to the approval of tk:=.. <br /> Bi11. Further, it leaves open the treatment to be afforded to tl... <br /> who have acquired existing credits. <br /> I am. returnina this Bill in the hope that these matters will be <br /> addressed. I appreciate your efforts to deal with those diffic•.:_~ <br /> issues, but can not approve a Bill which leaves open so much <br /> poss:bi-:icy cor future controversy or litigation. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> STEPHEN K..YAMASHIRO <br /> Mayor `J <br /> <br />
