Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting
<br />Minutes – May 23, 2016
<br />
<br />TN: Yeah, so…
<br />
<br />TL: We hit every single room…
<br />
<br />TN: That would be great – that would be great if you could give us report –
<br />just a brief over view.
<br />
<br />TL: A brief overview – we did something that we could do \[unclear\] a report
<br />like that would – at this point – would really be daunting, actually.
<br />
<br />TN: I’ll help you.
<br />
<br />TL: Well one of the things that – no, on that note though is on our bills that we
<br />have is to see who voted for our bills of those that we saw in these various
<br />committees, um, that would tell us a lot as to what, you know, you’re
<br />asking for and that would be the only way really that we have – we had a
<br />great reception from everybody as far as who welcomed us. Of course,
<br />they were after the meat, but, ah, still, um, you know, the commission bill
<br />was the one that we were focused on and it passed and it passed pretty
<br />much unanimously. Um, in fact, I don’t believe there was a single person
<br />that voted against the commission bill – in the final reading on the floor.
<br />So, ah, in that sense, um, you know, guys like – and don’t forget guys like
<br />Tony, Makani Christianson and those as well because, um, they had a lot
<br />to do with how successful we were and, um, you know, it’s just we were
<br />there but there’s a lot of stuff that was going on that, ah, I think needs to
<br />be applauded. I don’t know how we can do it as well – we can’t from here
<br />– but, ah, as long as we don’t forget them because they’re the ones that
<br />really did a big job for us, ah, but, yeah, no, Teresa, we’ll be happy to work
<br />on that, um, and see what we can do and, um, those that voted against
<br />some of our bills are like those that voted with reservation, ah, for things,
<br />you know, like 799 – Cindy Evans is really a disappointment, you know,
<br />she should have just said you know what? No. And, you know, it just may
<br />have been a fight or may have been whatever but, ah, you gotta have
<br />some conviction somewhere but, yeah, Teresa, thank you. OK. Um, we
<br />have replacements that we need for three districts: three, seven and eight.
<br />District three, um, is Waiakea-uka, I believe, or is that Ike? Waiakea. So
<br />District 3 we need to have – so does anybody here know anybody who
<br />would be potentially interested in being a commissioner from Waiakea,
<br />Waiakea-uka? Anybody here from that area? No? Um, OK, that – we’re
<br />gonna actively have to start working on that and, ah, and those of us here
<br />in Hilo, ah, maybe we can start going after our friends and hunters who
<br />may know folks who are in – who live up in the Waiakea area. Now Kona,
<br />you know, Mark, you live in one of the \[unclear – sounds like maverick\]
<br />districts.
