Ms. Howard said she <br /> would go back and review it. <br /> Committee Chair Ashley Kierkiewicz thanked Ms. Howard for her willingness to step up and <br /> noted that her first choice was to be on the Hamakua Community Development Plan Action <br /> Committee. Ms. Kierkiewicz asked Ms. Howard about her understanding of the synergies <br /> between the General Plan, the various Community Development Plans, and her potential position <br /> on the Water Board with regard to the development of infrastructure to implement our plans. <br /> Ms. Howard replied that"water is the key to everything else," and that she did not have enough <br /> information to speak on the specific details of the General Plan and the Community <br /> Development Plans. <br /> Ms. Howard was informed that she was not required to appear at the next Council Meeting. <br /> Your Committee on Planning is in accord with the purpose and intent of Communication <br /> No. 6125, and recommends confirmation of the appointment of Judy Sigrid Howard to the Water <br /> Board. <br /> ps <br /> AYES NOES ABS EX Respectfully submitted, <br /> CHUNG X <br /> DAVID x COMMITTEE ON PLANNING <br /> EOFF X <br /> KIERKIEWICZ X <br /> KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER X <br /> LEE LOY X � <br /> POINDEXTER X ASHLEY L.
