<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Hilo Bay Watershed Advisory Group <br /> 2390 Kaiwiki Road, Hilo 96720 <br /> "Bringing the community together to understand and <br /> protect the ecology of Hilo Bay and its ahupua'a" <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> July 19, 2006 <br /> <br /> <br /> The Honorable Harry Kim, Mayor <br /> <br /> Stacy Higa, Council Chair <br /> Hawai'i County Council Members <br /> <br /> <br /> Aloha! The Hilo Bay Watershed Advisory Group strongly supports placing the <br /> 2% set-aside measure on the 2006 fall General Election ballot. We firmly <br /> believe that this vital decision should come before the voters of Hawai'i County. <br /> The people who are residents of our precious island deserve to have their voices <br /> heard regarding this issue. <br /> <br /> Although our group's focus is the watershed flowing into Milo Bay, we recognize <br /> the interdependence of all areas of our island. We therefore add our support to <br /> this effort to secure funding that will enable the future purchase and preservation <br /> of prime areas of the `aina of Hawai'i Island Our land, our waters, and all living <br /> plants and beings deserve no less. <br /> <br /> <br /> Thank you for your serious consideration of placing the initiative on the fail <br /> General Election ballot. Much of importance depends on your decision today. <br /> Mahalo. <br /> <br /> <br /> Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br /> (3'n"It <br /> <br /> Susan O'Neill, Spokesperson <br /> Steering Committee <br /> Hilo Bay Watershed Advisory Group <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Comm.
