The long range plan is for placement of her office in the old Pahoa fire or <br /> police stations when one of those facilities is renovated. <br /> <br /> Our office would like to thank Councilmember Naeole and her staff for graciously agreeing to this <br /> relocation which will save our office and County taxpayers approximately $2,000 per month. Last <br /> month, Ms. Naeole and her staff walked through the Elections office with me and while they preferred <br /> to remain at their present location, they agreed to sacrifice their preferences for the sake of saving our <br /> County money in these difficult economic times. <br /> <br /> <br /> Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Kenneth G. Goodenow <br /> Comm. t 4o. tQ /0 <br /> Ref. 7o: <br /> Ref.
