<br /> <br /> <br /> Communication 162 <br /> Page 2 of 2 <br /> <br /> Two members of the public provided testimony to your Committee members. Mr. Chris <br /> Manfredi stated that in general he felt that the nominees were "a good group", but he thought that <br /> the inclusion of large landowners on the Steering Committee was lacking. <br /> <br /> Ms. Margaret Wille stated that she approved of the CDP process and encouraged the members to <br /> consult CDP committee members from prior committees in other districts, and to use their <br /> knowledge. <br /> <br /> Council Member Guy Enriques moved to divide the question and consider each nominee <br /> separately. <br /> <br /> Your Committee voted in favor of the motion. As a result, the discussion and voting regarding <br /> each nominee will be reported in its own committee report. <br /> <br /> The following individual was nominated by Mayor William P. Kenoi: <br /> <br /> Richard Creagan - Council Member Guy Enriques stated that he made a decision, albeit a very <br /> difficult one. Mr. Enriques stated that he was opposed to the nomination of Richard Creagan to <br /> the Ka'u CDP Committee. He stated that he certain items in the nominee's application could not <br /> be verified. Mr. Enriques stated that the nominee was not recognized by key personnel at either <br /> of the hospitals listed on the nominee's application. Mr. Enriques stated that there were other <br /> reasons that he was opposed to this nomination, but would not go into those reasons unless it was <br /> absolutely necessary. Other members of your Committee stated that they supported <br /> Mr. Enriques' position. They stated that they were confident that Mr. Enriques knew his <br /> community quite well, and if he was opposed to a particular nominee, there was a good reason <br /> for his opposition. <br /> <br /> Your Committee on Planning is not in accord with Mayor Kenoi's nomination to the Ka`u <br /> Community Development Plan Steering Committee, and forwards this matter to the full Council <br /> with a negative recommendation. <br /> <br /> awm <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> AYES NOES A&E Ex Respectfully submitted, <br /> ENRIQUES X <br /> FORD X COMMITTEE ON PLANNING <br /> GREENWELL X <br /> HOFFMANN X <br /> IKEDA <br /> KEDA X i. <br /> NAEOLE X DONALD IKEDA, CHAIR <br /> ONISHI X <br /> YAGONG X PC REPORT NO. 13 <br /> YOSHIMOTO X ADOPTED: APR 0 B 7003 <br />
