<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Dear Mayor Kim and Hawaii County Council: <br /> PLEASE PUT THE QUESTION ON THE BALLOT AND LET HAWAII COUNTY <br /> VOTERS DECIDE IN NOVEMBER TO MODIFY THE EXISTING Open Space and <br /> Natural Resources ORDINANCE BY MAKING THE FOLLOWING CHANGES: <br /> 1- to set aside 2% of the property tax each and every year for Open Space and Natural <br /> resource acquistion and <br /> 2-to eliminate the limit of $5 million that can be held in the fund. <br /> <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 to the <br /> timelines and the stringent application of the arbitrary and ambiguous criteria that the <br /> County has imposed on this process. We ask the County to include signatures of voters <br /> that: <br /> 1- forgot to write the st. ave. or highway suffix as part of their residencial address <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 should be using <br /> petition information to qualify signatures not looking for insignificant reasons to <br /> disqualify voter's signatures. <br /> Please put the question on the November 2006 Ballot now! <br /> <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Angela and Damn Dellamano <br /> P.O. Box 808 <br /> Kealakekua, 96750 <br /> JULY 8, 2006 <br />
