then bring forward the evidence, and I saw Mitch Roth ten minutes ago and he said, "Gene, I
<br />wanna talk to you," and I said, "I would love to talk to you, brah, but you know what? Put your
<br />claim and your evidence in writing and autograph it." Because that's what we do. We put our
<br />claim and our evidence in writing. We autograph it, and we come and we stand in honor. If you
<br />guys not willing to do that, then you wen dishonor. If you don't respond, then that's your
<br />response. So here's a great opportunity if you have `aina, and you wanna do something pono,
<br />and the County and the State, I don't know, somewhere in Washington DC, they telling you what
<br />you gotta do and what you cannot do, I'm telling you, the law of this `aina, the title of this `aina,
<br />already confirmed. Already confirmed. So, it's time to enforce the law. It's time to be truthful.
<br />God bless you.
<br />RAFFIPIY: Thank you, Mr. Tamashiro. Ms. Ellwood.
<br />E. ELLWOOD: Good afternoon. This is my first hearing ever, so I apologize if I quiver a little
<br />but it's shaking me to the core that I'm here. I'm a property owner. I live near this proposed
<br />monopole. I do not want it. AT&T, we do not want it. I'm concerned about my health. I came
<br />back from the mainland to take care of my parents. I'm invested in my land, in my house, in my
<br />family. I don't want this. I'm worried about the preschool that's nearby. I'm worried about the
<br />over eleven hundred students and faculty at Kamehameha. Don't they know? Because they sure
<br />didn't when I called them. They know nothing. I spoke to the cofounder of the preschool. She's
<br />like, "Oh, we didn't know. The Kamehameha? Oh, we didn't know." So, what kind of
<br />notification did you give our community, AT&T? So, I can tell you something, my cell phone
<br />works great, okay? I don't have problems with my coverage. We don't need your monopole.
<br />When I bought into the property two decades ago, it says agricultural zone. Where do we plant
<br />monopoles ever? Not at 4-H. Because I went to Hilo High. Nobody told us we plant that kind
<br />of stuff. So, how is that natural? I grow avocados, mangoes, lychee. That's what we grow.
<br />Cause that feeds our people, right? It feeds us. Four G today, is it 5G next week? What kind of
<br />thing you gonna pull on us? I don't have cancer, and I sure as hell don't want it for myself or my
<br />community. So, we will not be quiet about this, even if you approve it, we will not be quiet
<br />about it. I'm sorry that I'm quivering, but this means a lot to me and means a lot to all those
<br />people who signed that pink sheet who were here at 9:15 a.m. Many had to go back to work.
<br />Many had to pick up their kids. But they came back. I see my, my, my neighbors. And you
<br />know the sad thing is, my husband went and talked to our neighbors. Some of them didn't even
<br />get a notice. We got a notice. The letter says January, but the postage on the envelope says
<br />February. How come? So, are you really telling all that that have a stake in this that this is
<br />what's going on? I don't think so. And we have the right to know. I'm invested. We're not
<br />rich people, but this is my home now, and I wanna take care of my parents, and my husband, and
<br />my community. This monopole does not do anything for us. Again, my cell phone works really
<br />well.
<br />RAFFIPIY: Thank you, Ms. Ellwood. Mr. Ellwood.
<br />W. ELLWOOD: My name is William Prescott Ellwood. This is my wife you just heard of. For
<br />all the reasons that she said, I am also highly vested in our community, and in our family. I'd
<br />like to address AT&T's points to begin with, that say that there will be no 5G is a bunch of
<br />bullywap. You know, get realistic. You're gonna build a big tower, the biggest tower on the
<br />EXHIBIT C
