2021-09-09 Redistricting Commission minutes (2nd Session)

Home

public testimony to give us some ideas about these smaller communities we are not as familiar with. Thank you, Mr. Jones. JONES: Yup. You bet. KOSSOW: Any other Commissioners? (No response.) Alright, Ms. Ford if you can just keep your question pretty brief. I just want to move along to the next subject here. FORD: Thank you. Royce, is there a way to project two maps simultaneously on the screen so that we can look at the blocks on one, and maybe change the blocks on the second one? Two side-by-sides instead of just the one. JONES: I suspect in your browser you could. You could login twice. I’m pretty sure I’ve done that. I’ve logged in twice. I’d have to test and see but I think I’ve done that. So then you could—one tab would be one window and then pull the other one right and then break it out as a separate window. I’ll double-check and make sure. That’s the only way I know of. There’s no tool that will put ‘em up side-by-side that I am aware of. FORD: Thank you. Good suggestion. Thanks. JONES: Sure. KOSSOW: Mr. Jones, I guess my other question is, I saw the 2011 Redistricting Commission map already available on here, as well as the blank map. Is there other maps that will be available on the site? JONES: Well for the County you mean, for the County Council. That would be up to you as Commissioners, what else you want to put up there. At this point, as I mentioned in my video, what the Statewide Commission generally does is, once they have a set of propsed maps that are going to public hearing, then certainly those go up there. But you as Commissioners may want to, as you’re working, it’s your maps, have those available for the public to look at. You can certainly do that. I’m trying to think how best—we can coordinate that through Pat and her group because that is something that I can help facilitate if there are additional maps you want. KOSSOW: I think that might be beneficial just to look at historical data as well, on what other commissions had thought of, as far the boundary line. To Mr. Hustace’s point regarding historical ahupuaʻa, I know different commissions always have brought this up since I can remember. So I just want to see what type of information the 2001 Commission had for example. I think that would be benefical. JONES: Yeah. I can look at see what we have. KOSSOW: Any other questions? (No response.) Thank you, Mr. Jones. I appreicate it. JONES: You bet. 25
