<br /> <br /> p / Psift <br /> <br /> Murashige, Laura <br /> <br /> From: Katie Heinrich [katiemh@hawaii.edu] <br /> Sent: Monday, February 04, 2008 9:34 AM <br /> To: counciltestimony@co.hawaii.hi.us <br /> Subject: Please vote to support Bill 224. <br /> To: Hawai?i County Council <br /> Re: TESTIMONY IN SUPPORT OF BILL 224 <br /> Relating To Prohibition of Smoking In Certain Places Council hearing: February 5, 2008 <br /> February [date], 2008 My name is Katie M. Heinrich, Ph.D., and I strongly support Bill <br /> 224, which would prohibit using tobacco products at all County of Hawai?i parks and <br /> beaches. Thank you so much for addressing this important issue. The better we can make the <br /> environment for people, the more likely they are to use that environment. More time spent <br /> in parks and recreation areas leads to increased physical activity. So, by supporting this <br /> bill, you are not only decreasing exposure to second-hand smoke, but you are also <br /> promoting increased physical activity. Way to go! I strongly encourage the Council to <br /> vote yes to pass Bill 224. Last year, Kahalu?u beach park in Kona went smoke-free, let?s <br /> do the same for the rest of island. Passing Bill 224, will make visiting all our parks and <br /> beaches more enjoyable. <br /> Please accept this as written testimony in support of this bill. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Katie Heinrich, Ph.D. <br /> Katie Heinrich <br /> Biomed D104G <br /> Honolulu, HI 96814 <br /> 956-5765 <br /> <br /> <br /> <7 <br /> 'T <br /> cc) ~t <br /> Cn <br /> 3 - <br /> rr~ ,Ti <br /> S` <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Comm.
