October 16-17, 2007 Council meeting. <br /> Aloha Distinguished Council Members, <br /> <br /> The Bills proposed to regulate superstores as originally conceived for either protecting Mom and Pop stores or to bring <br /> <br /> the development requests before Council to ascertain that infrastructure concerns were addressed have gotten so far off <br /> <br /> track that the original concepts are lost. This issue was ona that generated a lot of response but unfortunately now has <br /> <br /> created a divisiveness and animosity among County and State Agencies and among the populace of the County. <br /> <br /> Because the issue as amended now is of a totally differcnt nature than the original concerns, interesting in its own right <br /> but seeking control that will assuredly require judicial proceedings, I ask the Council to table the Bill with amendments <br /> (forever) and simply allow economic forces to operate. <br /> It is a time to heal. <br /> Michael Reimer <br /> Kailua-Kona, Hawaii <br /> GeoMike5@att.net <br /> Cornet.
