I repeat my earlier objections. <br /> Judith Gersting <br /> Original Message <br /> Subject: TESTIMONY - Bill 395 <br /> Date: Wed, 03 Jan 2007 20:12:14 -1000 <br /> From: Judith Gersting <gersting@hawaii.edu> <br /> To: ccunciltestimony@co.hawaii.hi._us <br /> To: Hawaii County Council: <br /> It has come to my atention that the County Council is considering a <br /> bill <br /> that would allow any property designated as "Residential Use" to allow <br /> as many as 8 unrelated persons to live in/on such a property, together <br /> with an unspecified number of caregivers. Apparently this would apply <br /> to any apartment, condominium, single-family dwelling, or ohana <br /> property. <br /> This makes a mockery of zoning regulations and potentially turns any <br /> "residential neighborhood setting" into a "multiple family setting," <br /> to <br /> say nothing o£ the fact that the word "family" itself is stretched thin <br /> indeed when it can include 8 unrelated individuals. Talk about <br /> environmental impact statements - what about water usage, wastewater <br /> treatment, parking, noise, etc? <br /> This seems to be a very ill-considered bill, and I urge that you vote <br /> AGAINST its passage. <br /> Judith L.
