Honorable Aaron Chung, Chairman <br /> And Members of the Hawaii County Council <br /> October 1, 2019 <br /> Page 3 <br /> Pohaha I Ka Lani has submitted its application before the stated deadline and has <br /> provided the required documentation. <br /> Pohaha 1 Ka Lani has stewarded and continues to steward the subject property through <br /> the Hawaii County Open Space and Natural Resources Maintenance Fund Grant award <br /> since 2016. The progress of past grant award projects have been substantial and the <br /> group continues to comply with the terms of its grant award. <br /> The applicant proposes the following objectives which they say will build on and expand <br /> the previous stewardship efforts. Maintain property including native gardens, grass and <br /> fence-line in alignment with Native Revegetation plan. Continued implementation of the <br /> Educational Plan including hosting of educational workdays, facilitating cultural protocol <br /> space, facilitation of community education initiatives and maintenance and installation of <br /> educational signage. <br /> However, I have some concerns over the following budgetary items: <br /> 1. Food $ 3,000 <br /> 2. Honorarium $ 1,800 <br /> In my opinion, the Project Budget needs to be revised to be compliant with the Hawaii <br /> County Charter. <br /> This concludes my evaluation of the four PONC stewardship grant applications received by the <br /> Department of Parks and Recreation. Please let me know if there are any questions. <br /> Si cerely, <br /> Ro cie L.
