HERBERT K. GALLAGHER POST OFFICE BOX 1687 KAMUELA HAWAII 96743 August 28, 1998 Councillor Dominic Yagong Hawaii County Council 25 Aupurni Street County Clerks' s Office Hilo Hawaii, 96720 Re: MUD LANE Dear Councillor Yagong, Continuing from my letter of August 16, 1998, I am sending along other information which wif! be helpful to Corporation Counsel and your colleagues in unearthing the facts of our quandary here at WAIKOEKOE as follows: 1. The relevent Tax Maps which take you from the beginning of Mud Lane as it leaves the Hawaii Belt Road at the intersection of the Old Mamalahoa Highway to its apparent endung in Kukuihaele at the Government Main Road. The section of Mud Lane which goes from Highway 240 ( The Honokaa - Waipio Road ) to Goverment Road has been paved to service a County Cemetary . This would lead us to believe that the County has accepted the ponioc of Mud Lane and in fact paved it thus setting a precedent. Keep in mind - we want it to rema : a gravel road --just a few loads of gravel and some grading and annual maintenance is all tee are asking. The Tax Maps are: 3 rd Div 4 7 07 3 rd Div 4 8 03 3 rd Div 4 8 05 3rd Div 4 8 04 3 rd Div 4 8 06 2. Our second supporting position is that if the Waikoekoe Subdivision of 1897 as ac,.:,. 61r1_, and shown on May 3rd 1995 drawing by Inaba Engineering is legal and accepted by the County of Hawaii then it necessarily follows that the subdivision has proper and legal access namely by Mud Lane. It also follows that Police , Fire, Ambulance and the County Highway Dept, cannot consider Mud Lane as a Pnvate Road and refuse to serve u3! We look forward to a meeting , preferably with the full council , where we can reasonably discuss and resolve these matters. We are meeting on Saturday September 12 th a: Parker School Auditorium from !;00 to 3:00 PM . We would be happy to have you attend at 2:30 iryou c make it. , H - alla e
