HCHA meeting <br />November 5, 2020 <br />Kierkiewicz: Is there a grant that we could possibly go after that would allow <br />them to ... or that would allow that county to kinda pay for that connectivity? <br />Hosaka: Right now... <br />Kierkiewicz: Particularly because it's the most ... you know were talking about <br />some of the most vulnerable in our community. <br />Hosaka: Currently we haven't found any means to do that but hopefully if <br />there's some leeway in the guides... guidelines we possible could. <br />Kierkiewicz: Okay that's helpful to hear. Thank you much for the report. Happy <br />to help in any way that I can. Thank you Chair. I yield. <br />Eoff: Thank you anyone else? <br />Poindexter: Yeah, Chair. Val Poindexter. <br />Eoff: Go ahead Ms. Poindexter. <br />Poindexter: Thank you ... thank you for all you do and continue to do. Just <br />wondering as you develop the plan and as we continue to move forward <br />whether it needs tweaking or whatever... what community organization or out <br />there in Puna is at the table as part of the team in creating this plan? <br />Hosaka: For the COVID monies we did a request for proposal. So it <br />was ... whoever wanted to turn in a proposal for ... to receive the monies. And the <br />committee was based from our CDBG office to pick and... <br />Poindexter: Yeah, what I was talking about is ... talking about the overall planning <br />of the recovery, you know, whether it be COVID funding... whose at the table so <br />that there's a continuity in recovery from the public, from that area in the <br />community? <br />Hosaka: Yeah again so our funds are being used for very low income families so <br />we already have like a section 8 list, if that's what you mean... <br />Poindexter: Yeah no I was talking about like overall plan ... you know...the <br />count ... you know...were trying to make sure that recovery happens in Puna and <br />there's all these puzzle pieces all scattered all over and... <br />Kierkiewicz: Chair I don't mean to interrupt but point of clarification or order of <br />information... Ms. Poindexter I think those questions are best directed to Douglas <br />Le when we get to talking about the action plan. <br />Page 13 of 36 <br />
