HUSTACE: Thank you, Ms. Lui. So, I first have a question for Ms. Nakamoto. I <br /> submitted a number of maps. I know I was tinkering with them up until yesterday, so I <br /> submitted them yesterday. What is the turnaround for Mr. Jones to put those in the shared <br /> file? <br /> NAKAMOTO: He does it daily so if you submitted it, I don't know what time you <br /> submitted it yesterday, but whenever a plan gets submitted, we're notified that a plan was <br /> submitted, and I didn't get a notification. <br /> HUSTACE: Okay, yeah, I did submit. I actually submitted nine maps, so I apologize to <br /> the Commissioners. I took it upon myself to, like a lot of you, to look at the different <br /> districts, to adjust the numbers, to reach the deviation levels that we need to reach. While <br /> also considering my own person knowledge of the district that I live in, the surrounding <br /> districts, and also attending community meetings over time and hearing from you and the <br /> things that you have said at our past meetings. So, I did create maps of my own. Some of <br /> them are very different from each other. Some are very similar and just take little changes <br /> here and there. I know we're deviating from this new business discussion but, it really is <br /> this. It's moving things around between different current districts, right? And that <br /> incremental approach to some degree, whereas there's more of a drastic approach to <br /> others. Which could receive more uproar from community members but my, and Chair <br /> Kossow, if you'd like to chime in here too, I can't see you on the screen on this end in <br /> Kona but, I'll just kind of piece together my some of my thoughts here on us going <br /> forward. We have a different timeline and a different total agenda that we have for the <br /> next couple months here. We really only have a couple months. And I viewed the public <br /> hearings, like for example we had one on Monday, and unfortunately, we did not have <br /> anyone attend, right? Those of you that were able to attend realized that and recognized <br /> that right away. That we did not have anyone from the public join us. Now this may have <br /> been different from the past because while there may have been a deadline previously to <br /> that, those public hearings, there was a map that would have been presented at those <br /> public hearings. So, given the timeline we're in, I viewed currently, our timeline and <br /> these public hearings as an opportunity to hear from the public about where they felt, they <br /> feel what district they live, that they should be in, that what other aspects could be <br /> incorporated in a district, those sort of things. So, I was just really looking at that as like <br /> an overview of how our neighbors, and friends, and community members, would <br /> incorporate or foresee their districts. That's what they kind of thoughts that they could <br /> provide about that. That's what my personal reaction to these public hearings would've <br /> is, since we don't really have maps to present. There are some maps that are viewable to <br /> the public and those are the ones that were provided with testimony. So, the ones that <br /> were delivered via Communication are in our Laserfiche file and the public can see those. <br /> It's not like we're presenting them right at those public hearings but, we could if we want <br /> to. And we can show the variety of maps that have come in. So, the deadline was today <br /> for the public to submit. So, now it's really on us to take what we've been given and also <br /> the thoughts that you have about maps that you've created. Submit those and we need to <br /> 24 <br />
