Yamane, Chair <br /> Representative Chris Todd, Vice Chair <br /> Committee on Water, Land and Hawaiian Affairs <br /> Dear Chair Yamane, Vice Chair Todd, and Committee Members: <br /> RE: HB 2191, Relating to Lease Extensions on Public Land <br /> HB 2191 would not require, but would authorize the extension of certain leases of <br /> public land if certain narrow and clearly defined criteria are met. The overall impact of <br /> the bill would be that BLNR would have to find, not only that the criteria are met, but that <br /> it is in the public interest to grant such an extension. <br /> This seems to me to be a well-reasoned approach to the dilemma faced with <br /> respect to expiring leases, and I urge your support. <br /> Respectfully Submitted, <br /> L� <br /> Cts _Harry Kim7 <br /> MAYOR <br /> County of Hawaii is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer. <br />
